The reason I want the baby to die is to stop Abby, she has been the focus of the show for the past 3 seasons and it is getting irriating, i have no wish to see anymore of her annoying family, i'd much rather concentrate on the other cast.

i hope that there all ok and i cnt see TPTB killing off the baby cause that would leave the characters in a rut there would be nothing for them to do but work and mope it just would not be good television and if i had to pick a person to die it would be abby. sure luka would be sad about it but hes have the baby so hed have to be strong for it and he'd get over it eventually.

As much as I don't want ANY baby to die- this is a TV show so yeah the baby should die!

Man, you think that Abby as mom to a dead baby would get less attention? No way. You dont write a tragedy like that into the stroies of your two leads and then ignore it. No way does that add up to more attention for the other characters.

This is a drama show. It's also a relaistic show.

In reality the chances of a baby born like Abby's at her age surviving are small.

Sad as it is, dead babies makes better drama. Also, babies are awkward and hard to write in to a long running multi-story drama show such as ER.

The odds are against this baby surviving.

Agreed. If anything it will equal much MUCH more attention on Abby and Luka (perhaps more swayed to Abby...only speculation from newest spoilers out. Sorry if you don't read spoilers but those of you who do might know what I'm talking about).

and Rach; you're theory/idea/whatever is completley logical. Babys do not work in a drama like ER. Sad but true.

Especially when it's parents are the two leads. And one of them is the only working Attending.

Precisely Mia. From a writers POV you ahve to take in teh scemantics like that. As the lead characters they need screen time in the ER. With a baby that won't work.

Anyone who has a kid, mainly the females, has their screentime cut back.

i really hope the baby will be fine. i have never seen abby or luka so happy as they are together right now. Maybe the baby will get many disease in the beginning but i really hope the baby will get better and that it's healthy. i think that everyone here think that Both Abby and Luka deserves to be really happy for once !
Thanks to abbyxoxluka for my beautiful banners and thanks to carby-obsessive for my avatar..:)

yeah they do "deserve" (it's that word again) to be happy but since we're talking about deserving I think we should perform a seyonce and bring Sandy back to life to Kerry gets what she deserves....and then we can bring Joshua Carter back for Carter AND OMGG then we can bring Mark back...and maybe while we're at it Reese can hear; Pratt has a great relationship with his dad; Vic is with Jodie and the crazy ex is locked up. Gallant is alive....do you all want me to go on?

I think theres more to a complex drama (like ER) than making the characters happy...because when have TPTB ever let that happen. ER is first and foremost a drama...not a romantic epic.

and I do?

I've not once said that I want the baby dead. Thats the last thing I want but this is a drama...and "because he doesnt deserve it" isn't a fair arguement in anyones favour.

That's true, it happened to Jess in Holby City but anyways I'm not bothered is the baby is alive or dead. I dislike Luby but I'm still going to watch ER as it is a good drama.

Luby sucks!
Luby II: It's not that pretty and it's not that special

I really want the baby to live. Abby and Luka are so cute and happy together and they HAVE to raise this child. It tock so much time for Abby to decided if she was having the baby and now the baby is going to die. no no no no, they CAN'T kill it. they just CAN'T. Ok now i'm a little mad :angry: they can't they can't they can't
I HOPE TEHY WONT. :cry:

I don't think Maura can decide weather or not he charachter gets that much attention- I think she is happy that her charachter is getting that much attention. And people Will Care, because people have grown to like her. They should focus on the other cast as well but I don't think that is a good reason for the baby to die. If you want to see less of Abby, the baby should live. Because if it dies, we will all see emotinal abby and everything will be crazy. But that is my opnion and everyone is entitled to their opinion, that is just mine.
