Noah Wyle, the last continuous on-air link to the NBC medical drama “ER’s” freshman season in 1994, seems headed for the doctor’s retirement home. Wyle, who plays Dr. John Carter, told E! Entertainment Television on Thursday that he plans to leave the show at the end of this season.

“I’ve just got other stuff going in my life right now,” Wyle told “E! News Live.’ “I’ve got a son, I’ve got family and friends that said goodbye to me 12 years ago and are wondering when I’m coming back, and this little urge to scratch a different kind of itch in my career, and it’s just coming to the end of the character’s run.”
