Dre Grey, leçons d'anatomie

The beginning season were amazing!! Great actors with interesting storylines, it had the perfect amount of humor and heart to go along with the brutal cases brought into the hospital. But then it started to lose it's heart, characters became extremely annoying, and the personal issues of the characters became exhausting as they never seemed to change. Grey's Anatomy had a great cast to start with, then they took those characters and slowly made them unbearable to stand. While eventually getting rid of some of the best actors on the show to replace them with people who you will not be able to tolerate for very long. I wish this show would focus more on the medicine aspect and less on the personal lives of the doctors. It would be nice if they would clean up the cast and get better actors with better storylines or just end the show! 15 seasons is a bit much.

Grey's Anatomy has been a staple of television drama for many years, captivating audiences with its blend of medical intrigue and personal relationships. However, after Season 11, the series took a turn that didn't resonate with me as much.

While I appreciate the show's efforts to address important social issues, the focus in Season 12 and beyond felt overwhelmingly centered on themes of race and LGBTQ+ representation. While significant in today's cultural climate, this shift often overshadowed the storylines and well-developed characters that initially drew me to the show. The emphasis on social justice narratives sometimes felt forced, detracting from the character development and complex medical cases that made earlier seasons so engaging.

I understand the importance of representation in media, but the balance felt off, making the show feel more like a platform for social commentary rather than a cohesive narrative.

In conclusion, while I commend the creators for their commitment to inclusivity, I miss the nuanced storytelling that characterized the earlier seasons of Grey's Anatomy. I hope future seasons can find a way to blend these important themes with the rich, character-driven plots that made the series a beloved classic.

This used to be such an addictive show. The medical and personal life storylines were interesting, and the characters were written well so that you got attached to them.

I did enjoy it for a lot of its run, but it has been slowly going downhill by bringing in boring characters, pulling back on medical mysteries and stories, and having all their characters sleeping and making babies with one another. It also started trading good writing with awkward preachy interludes - though not too often at first.

I had watched it through before, and stopped at season 17 because it just got so bad. But this time I decided I was going to just keep watching through. Well I got halfway through s17ep6 and I couldn't take it. The writing is so boring, it brings COVID into a world we went to to escape things like COVID, and replaces a lot of meaningful dialogue with awkward, badly written politcal soap box speeches.

There's a way to bring awareness to issues without sacrificing good writing and just repeating political youtuber talking points. If I wanted political rants I can find those elsewhere. I watched this show for the interesting medical drama and interesting characters, and it's gotten to the point where it's about everything but that. It's become unwatchable.

This show was so good for so many years I am unsure as to why they keep dragging it out. They should've ended it seasons ago and just stopped while it was still good. All in all worth the watch but I stopped watching it a few seasons ago

I agreed to watch these from the start with my girlfriend.

I resisted at first but quickly got into it - the show is (was) full of drama, comedy, sadness, the whole Variety pack.

I had to stop watching the last season 17.

Although the show always tackled difficult social issues it did it as part of a story line, not always well, but it was always a situation that affected a character and you would see it play out.

This started to become less nuance as time went on until you get to season 17 where the characters all but look down the lens and say "these are the top ten reasons why America is racist" There is no story line or investigation into motivations or character just some glib -"yeah I am going to try harder not to murder my patients with racism"

Also Grey herself - how many times is this woman going to die?

The Terminator would have called it a day by now!

I swear she has her own parking space in Purgatory

The security guards see her coming and just wave her through.

"Hey, Meredith, what got you this time? Oh, a dolphin fell out of a hot-air balloon and crushed the ambulance that was carrying you away from that train wreck? What are the chances, eh?"

All things have to come to and end.

This must surely be the end.
