I must have been around 10 years old when, watching Newsradio religiously, first thought "I wanna be Lisa Miller". The confidence, the strenght and the power that Maura Tierney put in that character just made sense. And I wanted to be the this cutthroat reporter, just see where I wanted to go, and start walking.
Lisa Miller was completely awesome.
And the same can be said about Maura Tierney. A great actress, that can do a more dramatic and conflicted rol like she did in ER, and she still can crack you up at least 20 times per episode, like she did in Newsradio.
After all, if you can inspire a young girl to make a carrer choice by playing a part, I´ll have to say you are pretty good at what you do.

Maura Tierney is an amazing actress who is a joy to watch every week. She has so much depth.Their is a reason why the writers give her the majority of the great material ER, because she always deliver. she is so underrated. All I am going to say is this show is not going to be the same without her and ER is still my favorite shows on TV. I mean come on how many shows can go through so many cast changes and still work. The writing is so good. I will admit that it has gotten a little repetative over the years but come on it has been on 15 years and one more thing the writers better not break up Luka and Abby because they are such a joy to watch. The actors have so much chemistry.

Maura has proved herself again and again as an actor (gender-neutral term, referring to male and female actors together) who is capable of moving one to tears, yet equally capable of keeping her audience in stitches. Her dry humor and wit on such...

Maura has proved herself again and again as an actor (gender-neutral term, referring to male and female actors together) who is capable of moving one to tears, yet equally capable of keeping her audience in stitches. Her dry humor and wit on such shows as "NewsRadio" and "ER" really made her stand out as one of the best comedic actors of her time. Other performance, such as "Oxygen," "ER," and "Instinct" portrayed her ability to draw her audience into her emotions, making it impossible in simply watch her. Maura makes it difficult to remain passive when watching her on television or in the movies. A Maura movie experience is more about being involved in the character's life than any other actor I know. I have literally sat on the edge of my seat during a particularly moving scene from "ER," unable to control my own reaction to the raw emotion she is somehow able to convey across time, miles, and through my television screen. Maura is also one of the few actors left who honestly has not been type-cast. She is completely versatile and has crossed many genres of material and portrayed many different characters throughout her career. She is truly multi-talented, one of the best actors of all time. I am enamored with every Maura experience.

She is my favourite actress, she is talented and beautiful. Her acting is natural and true, graceful, and elegant. "Maura Tierney has really helped to resuscitate 'ER'…." and I think it's true! I like her acting and I think she is the best of ER...

She is my favourite actress, she is talented and beautiful. Her acting is natural and true, graceful, and elegant. "Maura Tierney has really helped to resuscitate 'ER'…." and I think it's true! I like her acting and I think she is the best of ER (because she is my favourite:D)! Her character is reason (for me) to watch ER every week. Abby is a good person, she has many good qualities (kind,helpful,etc...). And I love her relationship with Luka,they are a very good couple.
And I think Maura is people's favourite, because she is a very kind person!
It is sad that she will leave ER!:(
MAURA TIERNEY forever!

I love Maura Tierney ..

She is so talented .. It would be so sad if she really left ER. =(
Now with everything going on between Luka and Abby ..

I love Maura Tierney ..

She is so talented .. It would be so sad if she really left ER. =(
Now with everything going on between Luka and Abby ..
Abby has such an attitude, its funny to watch when she is threatning Hope ... She is a really good mom , and Joe is really lucky .. !

Maura should get an Oscar for her role as Abby .. She's almost everyones fav. They give out Walk of Fame to Johnny Depp, Britney Spears and God know who, but not Maura ? She's muuuuch better than Britney Spears,, she isn't in rehab always, she dont smoke, she dont smoke, she dont do drugs .. But Britney does , so she don deserve a Walk of Fame but Maura does, i know her drinking doesnt have anything to do with her Walk of Fame its her voice, but really , she isnt that good.
even abby in all about christmas eve, when she sings to Haleh sings better.

Maura Tierney is my favorite actress. I am a huge fan of her ER work and I have now just discovered something else great- NewsRadio. These two shows both show two very different sides of Maura Tierney and both are great. Abby Lockhart is a somewhat depressed character who has her very serious moments, but also has an extremely sarcastic sense of humor that Maura portrayes very well. She has found a way to make Abby a character that isn't annoying because of her self-pitying ways. Lisa on NewsRadio is a very funny character that is fun to watch. Maura is really great.

Being a big E.r fan i've come to know her as Dr Abby.Lockhart a women who hides behind sarcasm and has only recently taken some risks and pushed forward in her future.

Being a big E.r fan i've come to know her as Dr Abby.Lockhart a women who hides behind sarcasm and has only recently taken some risks and pushed forward in her future.

Now i personally don't think that is an easy part to play but Maura pulls it of and potrays Abby with a touch of vulnerability.Although many people comment that all Abby seems to do is show sadness that can't of been easy for Maura to constantly have to pull of in difficult storylines.

An example of her fantastic performance within E.r has to be the storyline with Abby's bipolar mother and how we found out that Abby had to grow up fast in order to look after her brother and herself.Maura potrayed abby with shielded emotions as we have come to know her until the time was right for her to let go and break down. Maura's performance throughout was breath-taking and awe inspiring.

Maura Tierney pulls of a shielded vulnerable character inspirationally and even manages to add in sarcasm and humour, all i can say is wow that truly takes an awesome actress.

I love how she says things that are mean. They are mean, but she can say it to where it is just funny. Love her acting in ER. One of the best characters on the show. I can remember her quotes best because they are the ones that stay with you. I...

I love how she says things that are mean. They are mean, but she can say it to where it is just funny. Love her acting in ER. One of the best characters on the show. I can remember her quotes best because they are the ones that stay with you. I haven't seen her in much of anything else, but overall she is one of the few actresses that is my favorite.

I don't watch "E.R.," to see Maura Tierey, but I don't have to because I happen to fall in love with the actress. Is she beautiful? Believe it! she is one of the sexiest woman on television. I don't care what anyone saids, she is gorgous...

I don't watch "E.R.," to see Maura Tierey, but I don't have to because I happen to fall in love with the actress. Is she beautiful? Believe it! she is one of the sexiest woman on television. I don't care what anyone saids, she is gorgous to the bone and like I said again, I'm in love with her. I got a few pictures of her at home and sometimes I look at her pictures. she is gorgous and smart and I love to meet her someday. she is hot, so hot I had to give her a 10.0. That great!
