why can't i stop watching this damn show? Why? I've been watching Grey's since season 2. I put up with Heigl who was not good. I put up with the **** terrible season when Derrick Shepard left and the show felt like it was in upheaval. I put up with the AWFUL plane crash to kill off characters. Or, that terrible ghost season when Heigl had that relationship with a patient.
I even thought that the show was DONE when they let Christina Yang go. I thought, "there's no way the writing team can recover from this." They're phoning it in to let the audience know that the show is nearing completion.
And yet...this show still manages to find its way. They restructure, dig in deeper into the theme of the show, and double down on the strength of a strong rotating cast.
Greys really is my guilty pleasure show. That and L&O: SVU.
So solid.
Old School Grey's fan checking in. I loved this show HARD when it first started. I named my freaking first-born son after Preston Burke. It's insane to me that it's still going.
I quit a LONG time ago. I remember when Denny (now known as Regan, lol!) died. Burke was fired and came back for a split second. O'Malley and Calley divorced. Addison left and joined Taye Diggs to start a new show. "McSteamy."
Ah, I remember why I quit the show. The new cast/generation came, including Meridth's little sister, who immediately jumps into bed with Alex. Yes, even after everything that happened prior to season 4, I'm like, REALLY??? Trash doctors, trash hospital, trash show.
I never did look back to figure out why Lexie was the last straw for me. "Anyone can be corrupted?" "Everyone makes mistakes?" IDK.
Oh, and Bailey is a mammy. Just thought I would put that out there too.
