You know, I saw that ER episode.

ER ran a repeat last week that showed an elderly black woman being brought into the ER with her granddaughter in tow. The doctors ripped open the woman's shirt, exposing her breasts, to attach probes while the girl was yelling "No! No!"

Since NBC has been announcing four "All New" ER episodes for the February sweeps, was this to be a second breast exposure of an elderly patient?

Well, I saw tonight's ER, and they pixilated the scene in question. In this episode, it was an elderly Haitian woman with Whooping Cough that they try to revive. NBC did a circular shot around the table while the doctors tried to revive the patient, and when they rotated to an exposed shot of the woman, they pixilated the naughty bits.

However, nobody said anything about the repeat episode last week that we saw with the other elderly woman and her young granddaughter. So, NBC made a big deal about editing out this week's scene while staying mum about last week's.
