My Coffee

The number "Dominican", was filmed 5 weeks after her injury.

My Night to Remember

Very large mix up & episodes aired in different order

My Long Goodbye

1. Carla asks Dr. Cox if he's ever been followed by the memory of a loved one, like a ghost. Dr. Cox says no, because "I'm a sane person." However, in "My Screwup" (3.14), he is followed by the memory of Ben Sullivan, his ex-wife Jordan's brother and his close friend.

My Words of Wisdom

Their Story

My Turf War

1. Kerri Russell was 6 months pregnant during filming. They had to use creative angles and the coat she is wearing to hide it.

My Rabbit

My Point of No Return

5. Season 6 was the final FULL season of the series. Season 7 was shortened due to the writers' strike. Season 8 was to finish the series (as Season 7 was the initial final season). Season 9, the final season, was also only a half a season.
