Pinay joins ER

Finally, true-to-life representation.

(Well, not quite. An ’80s sitcom called, get this, E/R featured a Filipina receptionist. She was played by a Japanese actress, however. The show starred Elliot Gould and a young George Clooney!)

Side note: Bend it Like Beckham’s Parminder Nagra joins ER as well.

UPDATE: How could I forget? Lea Salonga guest starred in ER a couple seasons ago.

    Hey, how funny. That’s cool. I would’ve loved to watch that Las Vegas episode.

    i heard they tackled bangungot in one of the episodes of ER, the adult son died from it leaving the doctors baffled and the elderly father explained the phenomena of bangungot to the doctors.
