Grey's Anatomy

I usually wait to post an overall review until a show is fully done, but now I am fully done with the show.

I originally had it at a 9 then 8 and now 7 and I'm doing this review now before it keeps going down.

I have amazing memories of the show, season 1-11 are absolutely amazing, all of it, it had a fantastic balance between medical mysteries and difficulties in the OR, with a good mix of home drama and relationship issues, season 12-14 were decent with some good episodes but 15 up to now which is 18 are just some of the most horrendous seasons of tv.

There is no more shocking patients, even the family drama is just plain ridiculous, I get after 18 seasons ( renewed for a 19th) it's hard to come up with ideas, SO STOP, go out with a bang!!!

I have watched a handful of s18 and it's useless, the show now focuses on whole topics, forcing certain agendas at you, for example I think S17 Maggie thought her boyfriend was going to be killed by the police because he was pulled over, what a load of rubbish, this was in the height of police protests but my god, yes there are bad people out there but your painting an entire police force as animals, I really didn't like that. Greys was a place you would go to escape reality, now it's even worse.

My greys days are behind me unfortunately, I'd recommend s1-11 they are superb but just stop after that.

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.

The last few seasons are just some phrases transcribed from popular psychology books, with no actual characters. So bad and fabric.

The early seasons of Grey's were so great! I loved the characters and their stories. The show is still good years later, but nothing will ever compare to the original cast!

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
