Need More Noah Wyle? Here's How To Stream ER (To Fill The Pitt-Sized Void In Your Life)

If you've got the post-Pitt blues following the Season 1 finale, you might be inclined to start streaming that other Noah Wyle-led medical drama. Here's where you can watch ER online before The Pitt returns for Season 2.

All 15 seasons of ER are available to stream on Hulu and Max. Both have plans that start at $9.99/month, so you'll have to sign up for one of the streaming services to watch the iconic medical drama online.

Watch 'ER' Online

If you're not yet subscribing to Hulu, signing up is easy! The platform offers three subscription options for a range of prices, so there's something for everyone. Plus, you get your first month of the ad-supported plan free, so you can try the platform and, if you're quick about it, you can binge all 15 seasons of ER without paying a penny! (Full details on the Hulu free trial are outlined below.)

If you decide to sign up for the streamer, you can opt for the Basic plan with ads for $9.99 per month. This plan offers a 30-day free trial. If you want to avoid the inconvenience of ad breaks, you can sign up for the Hulu Premium plan for ad-free streaming and the option to download titles (for on-the-go viewing) for $18.99/month. (Keep in mind, however, this option does not offer a free trial.) If you want a near-total cable replacement, try out Hulu + Live TV for $82.99/month, which offers a three-day free trial.

The only way to watch ER for free is by enjoying a free trial period. You can sign up for Hulu with ads, and watch ER for 30 days free, or opt for Hulu + Live TV to use the three-day free trial to binge as many episodes as you can without paying. There are no commitments, and you can cancel your subscription any time.

Alternatively, you can sign up for Max through Prime Video to get a seven-day free trial to watch ER for free for one week.

If you're here because you've watched The Pitt, you already have a Max subscription. So for those who want to use Hulu to binge ER, we're outlining step-by-step instructions for signing up below:

1. Go to the Hulu website
2. Click the "Sign Up Now" button
3. Choose your plan

6. Start watching ER!

If you really want to know what all the ER hype is about, you'll just have to watch it! But we can provide a bit of background: The series — which originally starred Wyle (aka Dr. John Carter), Anthony Edwards (Dr. Mark Greene), George Clooney (Dr. Doug Ross), Julianna Margulies (Nurse Carol Hathaway), Sherry Stringfield (Dr. Susan Lewis) and Eriq La Salle (Dr. Peter Benton) — "set the tone" for all medical dramas that followed. It was a pivotal part of NBC's Must-See TV lineup from 1994-2009, airing Thursdays at 10/9c for the entirety of its run. It amassed a record-setting 124 Emmy nominations, winning a total of 23 Emmys, including one for Outstanding Drama Series.

The show survived several waves of cast turnover — when George Clooney scrubbed out, in came Goran Visnjic, and when Julianna Margulies walked away from a $27 million contract, Maura Tierney was waiting in the wings — and several shark-jumping moments that would have derailed any other show. (We're still convinced Robert "Rocket" Romano's death-by-helicopter was a fever dream.) But thanks to an endless stream of well-drawn characters and an almost uncanny ability to evolve with the times, viewers kept coming back until 2009's all-time great series finale. TVLine has since declared it NBC's Best 10 pm Show of All Time.
