Grey's Anatomy

My favourite programme on TV at the moment is Grey’s Anatomy. I can’t express enough just how much I love this show. I started watching from season 6 after my friends and family were recommending it and since then I have become obsessed! I then started watching the repeats of earlier series and the only series I have yet to finish watching is Series Two. I had the series set to record on my television at home so that when I come home from university I can watch them. Even on the train home I can’t wait to turn on the television and look forward to sitting down with a cup of tea, curled up with a blanket to watch Grey’s.

The clever mix of drama, romance and medicine make the show so addictive. Although in essence the show is a medical drama the personal lives of the characters and their individual stories make them so loveable and irresistible to watch. You get so tangled and embroiled in their stories that you begin to think of them as people you know and love. Each episode highlights a specific issue that is relevant to both the character’s personal and professional lives. In a way the two are so closely interlinked and are interchangeable.
I have never been a fan of medical dramas. They are often grossly dramatized and glamourized and the characters conform to old stereotypes of doctors being cold, detached and clinical. But Grey’s is definitely an exception. With a sexy cast which includes the irresistible Patrick Dempsey and great probing storylines this show is a must! 5/5
