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.
