I think that Meredith Grey is one of the most miserable and whiny people in the world. Fortunately, her continuous banter has yet to stop me from cozying up in bed and watching my ultimate favorite TV show, ever, Grey\u2019s Anatomy. Meredith, being the main character and narrator of the drama, is clearly unavoidable; but its an addiction. I cannot remember exactly when I started watching, but I do remember watching it with my mom as a kid. I would walk in to the tv room after dinner to find mother glued to the screen happily watching devilishly handsome Dr. Derek Shepard perform yet another surgery. I was never too interested in Grey\u2019s at this time though, I thought it was just another one of my \u201cMom\u2019s quiet time shows\u201d; little did I know it would turn into such a guilty pleasure of mine.<\/p>\n
Starting in 2005, Grey\u2019s Anatomy is still going strong in their 11th<\/sup> season. Although new Grey\u2019s episodes are still airing every week, I refuse to watch past season 9. I am very bias towards the older episodes, and the original characters. As characters continued to leave during season 9 and season 10, I felt like I was watching a different show, not my guilty pleasure. Grey\u2019s is a drama full of, well, drama. The doctors are undoubtably too attractive to all be undeniably successful and all happen to work in the same hospital; there are relationships between all of them; the patients they receive are cases that are almost always deadly or rare; all traumas that come into the ER are absolutely fatal, but it will always be okay because the devilishly handsome doctor will heal you. But Shonda Rhimes, creator of Grey\u2019s knows exactly what is going to pull the viewer in; so as the viewer, you cant do anything but give in to the ridiculous drama.<\/p>\n Although I know it is a terrible addiction, I love falling in love with characters and their relationships with each other; the way the characters feel for each other. I love seeing crazy medical cases, the hard work the doctors do, the connections they have on set with each other, it inspires me and makes me want to be a doctor too; to save lives\u2014as Doctor Derek Shepard would say. And although a medical tv show, I love being able to relate to the characters too. I like to indulge in Meredith and Derek\u2019s relationship problems; specifically when Meredith and Derek had been dating for a while but then are put to a halt when Dereks wife <\/i><\/b>Addison shows up. I am very proud to be an avid Grey\u2019s Anatomy watcher. Although cheesy, overdramatic, and exaggerated, I will never stop watching. I have gone through up to all 9 seasons many times and I plan to continue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I think that Meredith Grey is one of the most miserable and whiny people in the world.
