‘Hey, You’re That Guy!’ ER Alum Reflects On Being Recognized By Fans Almost 20 Years After Getting Killed Off
Medical dramas continue to captivate audiences today as much as they did in the past. Shows like “Grey’s Anatomy” on ABC and “Brilliant Minds,” starring Zachary Quinto, on NBC are just a few examples of current hits. However, despite the emergence of new series in this genre, the impact of “ER,” with its rapid pace, talented cast, and numerous celebrity appearances, remains undiminished even after it wrapped up its 15-season run from 1994-2009. Sharif Atkins, who played Dr. Michael Gallant over five seasons, recently discussed with TopMob how he’s still recognized nearly two decades following his character’s heartbreaking conclusion.
