    How can you not love this completely unquie and hateful character. Dr. Robert "Rocket" Ramano was truly one of the greatest characters to grace the cast of ER. hide show

    From first meeting the character of Robert Ramano I couldn't help but hate him and his argumentative attitude. His unpleasant sexually comments and his unwillingness to be liked made me hate him even more. However, after it all I couldn’t help but love Dr. Ramano. His unique and unforgettable character keep me glued to the show. Watching each week and hoping to hate the character of Ramano even more but finding myself more fascinated and infatuated with the character. I began longing for his character to be developed more and more and in the end his death was truly the sadness on the show.
