Grey's Anatomy (TV show)

Grey's Anatomy, one of the greatest T.V shows ever (according to me at least) tells the story of Medical interns (who are now doctors) and their personal lives which revolves all around the hospital they work in, Seattle Grace Hospital and the people in it. The show originally airs in America, on abc networks. Concieved by Shonda Rhimes, also written, produced and partially directed.

The series stars Ellen Pompeo as Meredith Grey (the title character), also stars Sandra Oh as Christina Yang, Katherine Heigl as Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens, T.R.Knight as George O'Malley, Justin Chambers as Alex Karev, Chandra Wilson as Miranda Bailey, Patrick Dempsey as Derek Shepherd, Isiah Washington as Preston Burke, Sara Ramirez as Callie Torres, Kate Walsh as Addison Shepherd, James Pickens Jr as Richard Webber, Eric Dane as Mark Sloan, Chyler Leigh as Lexie Grey, Kevin McKidd as Own Hunt and Jessica Capshaw as Arizona Robbins.

-What a LONG ENSEMBLE CAST!

Anyways, the series has a very fine element of comedy but is hell as good at the emotional end and can also make you cry. The series start with Meredith having a one-night stand with a man named Derek on the day of her 1st working day as an intern and tells him to never contact her or remember this (something like no strings attached). Well, she goes to Seattle Grace and there meets her fellow interns, later who turn out to be her 'family', Christina, George, Izzie and Alex, while they get the toughest resident, Dr.Bailey also known as the Nazi of the hospital. The Chief of the hospital is Richard Webber who has a little something to do with Meredith and her personal life.

As the first season evolves, the interns learn alot and go through some of the toughest procedures, learning as well also leaning through their personal lives. Meredith is somewhat interested in Derek and the two have an on-off relationship, while Christina is competitive, edgy and would do anything for surgery and being number 1. She begins to fall for fellow resident Dr. Burke and the two date. Izzie is the sweetest of all and is emotional and fragile, falling for Alex who is a total bad-ass, rough attitude kinda guy and finally George, who is reffered as Bambi sometimes, he has feelings for Meredith. The interns become close friends, Meredith and Christina becoming the closest, Izzie and George are besties. Everyone goes through rough roads in the hospitals, be it professionaly or personally. By the end of first season is introduced Addison, who is Derek's wife *shocking, killer finale*.

As the series procedes, Meredith and Derek break up and go through some serious issues, Christina and Burke get serious, also all the while all are learning to be great doctors. They also go through the most dire of circumstances, bad times and love. Dr.Bailey is on the edge of killing her interns if they screw anything but she is totally loving and a good teacher.

There is so much to write about, also there are 7 seasons to describe and summarize. But I can't screw the fun, you've got to watch it yourself. If you do wanna watch it, you can get it from the Video Range DVD/CD shop in Def Ph.4

Back to anatomy, it is a total tear-jecking drama, specially season 2 and 3 since I cried like hell during the running of the show.

The series also features a fantabulous soundtrack, the title track is by Psapp. Notable tracks of the drama include chasing cars by Snow patrol (which I love), How to save a life by The Fray (I love it too), The story by Brandi Carlile, Keep Breathing by Ingrid Michaelson, 2 a.m (breathe) by Anna Nalick (my fav!!) and many more.

Also the Drama has won numerous accolades and awards. To me, its like one of the bestest shows on TV. Performances by Sandra Oh, Katherine Heigl, Chandra Wilson are particularly applauded. The series enjoyed great ratings, specially during season 2-3. Also generates a great amount of money for the abc network.

One of the best episodes include episode 17-19 of season 2, the last 2 episodes of season 2, episode 3 of season 3, finale of season 3, episode 18,20 and finale of season 5, finale of season 6 and the special musical episode of season 7.

Grey's anatomy is my fav show and its hard to live without it. Not everyone may enjoy it. Its a very soft, emotional drama but hey, who am I to say...I adore it! ;)

My Ratings: 9/10
