Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Just when you wanted to say "Oh no, not another hospital drama," Grey's Anatomy turns into one of the most addicting series on television. With no big stars and no hype, the ABC series debuted last spring as a mid-season replacement and became a bonafide smash in its nine-episode season.

The series, a hybrid of House's medical detectives and Dawson's Creek's hormones and catchy pop-rock soundtrack, follows five competitive surgical interns at the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital. There's optimistic ex-model Izzie (Katherine Heigl), bumbling do-gooder George (T.R. Knight), competitive glacier Cristina (Sandra Oh), cocky womanizer Alex (Justin Chambers), and the show's namesake, Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), whose medical career is complicated by her famous surgeon mother who now lives with Alzheimer's, and her frowned-upon relationship with another surgeon, Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey, enjoying the best career revival since Rob Lowe). The doctors juggle romance and foster friendships while trying not to stab each other in the back over surgeries.

Grey's Anatomy's first season, while entertaining, went a little far trying to find its groove, overdosing on Meredith's overly simplistic voice-overs ("At the end of the day... faith is a funny thing"), and musical montages. It has the usual trappings of a hospital drama (unusual cases, such as the patient with the 70-pound tumor, and trysts in the on-call room), but with more warm fuzzies and light touches.

Pompeo, who can sound just like Renee Zellweger if you close your eyes, is likeable but not strong enough of a presence compared to her co-stars. Luckily the quirky dialogue and stellar acting by the ethnically diverse cast, particularly by Chandra Wilson (Dr. Bailey, aka "the Nazi") and Oh, who won a Golden Globe for best supporting actress, more than make up for it. --Ellen A.

- Highly Recommend!
I was given this as a present recently, and i have to admit it never really appealed to me as i am a huge fan of Scrubs and always maintained it was the best programme on television....How wrong was i.

After watching Grey's anatomy season 1 i have become totally addicted and have recently purchased season 2 from amazon.co.uk (brilliant service!) I am also currently awaiting the arrival of Seasons 3+4.

In a nutshell if you like scrubs and house md you'll love this, it's basically a combination of both! However T.R Knight is not great but the rest of the cast make up for this, especially Sandra Oh and Ellen Pompeo.

Fantastic medical drama!!

- A Must-Buy!
Initially I was put off watching Grey'a Anatomy due to the fact that it is a medical drama and I am incredibly squeamish! However, having received the season 1 boxset as a present, I decided to give it a go and as soon as episode 1 had finished I was enthralled. Despite it being set in a hospital, this series also concentrates on the relationships between the interns. The characters are just really likeable which makes the viewer actually care about what happens in their lives which I feel makes the series successful. I now love Grey's Anatomy and have watched every episode almost back to back for the last two days and cannot wait to buy series 2 so I can have another marathon Grey's Anatomy viewing! Looking at the reviews, you can see that ... Read More:

I should really hate Grey's Anatomy. It's not like it's doing new things with the medical genre, rerunning most aspects of 'St Elsewhere' and 'Cardiac Arrest' under private medical care, not entirely sure how much ever whether it wants to be an ensemble drama about trainee surgeons or a standard complication discovery series. For the uninitiated, it's the story of a group of trainee surgeons in a Seattle hospital, essentially e.r. Carter's storyline for the first five or six seasons repeated four or five times with an injection of estrogen.

I've never been one for guilty pleasures and I usually have zero tolerance for duff shows and this has all the hallmarks; stock characters such as the kindly department chief mixing with the ... Read More:

- Great show
I caught some of Grey's Anatomy when I was travelling last year and liked it. Given the rubbish on TV at the moment I thought I'd get a dvd to watch for when I had some spare time and wanted something good to watch. I got the dvd on Friday and have pretty much watched the whole of the first series over the weekend! So much for saving it for a rainy day!

I enjoyed it so much I've ordered the second series.
