Robert Romano

Robert Romano

Dr. Robert 'Rocket' Romano is a fictional character on the TV series ER. He was portrayed by Emmy-winning actor Paul McCrane. Paul McCrane's removal from the main cast opening credits was in the 9th episode of season 10.

Romano was a brash, insensitive man who often made racist or bigoted comments. Although he was a deliberately unpleasant and cruel character, he also frequently provided comic relief, and thus became popular with viewers as ER's "man you love to hate". TV Guide included him in its list of The Most Loathed TV Characters and commented: "we loved to hate him and hated to love him too".

Famous quotes containing the words robert and/or romano:

    But I, being man, can kiss
    And bed-spread-eagle too;
    All flesh shall come to this,
    Being less than angel is,
    Yet higher far in bliss
    As it entwines with you.
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    Live fast, die young and have a good-looking corpse.
