Noah Wyle Says His Nurse Mom Used to Critique His Performance on ‘ER’


‘ER’ alum Noah Wyle says his mom, a registered nurse, would call him after every episode to critique the medical accuracy of the hospital drama

“She would call [at] 11:01,” Wyle, 53, shared on the Monday, June 24, episode of the “Still Here Hollywood” podcast of his mother, Marjorie, who worked as a nurse in an operating room for 10 years and in orthopedics for another 10. Speaking to host Steve Kmeto about his mother’s “vested interest” in his show, Wyle joked of Marjorie’s phone calls, “Advice, criticism — it’s a fine line sometimes.” Along with Wyle, the original six stars of the long-running medical drama included George Clooney, Julianna Marguiles, Anthony Edwards, Eriq La Salle and Sherry Stringfield.
