http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx The biggest problem with GREY’S ANATOMY is that the writers feel like they constantly need to one-up themselves. For example, last season, George lost his father, slept with Izzie, and failed his intern exam. Meredith, the Grey of the title, not only lost her mother AND her stepmother, she almost died herself. And Burke ran out on Yang. And Karev fell in love with a pregnant amnesiac. Yeah, that’s a lot of lost parents even in a world of constantly heightened reality. But one-upping, whether it be in the strangeness of the medical cases or in the interpersonal melodrama, does not necessarily make for better or more interesting television. The beauty of the show the first season was that it moved rather slowly, at least compared to now. The characters are all so self aware that when they sat around navel gazing it felt a little like real life. Add a dash of soapy surprise, like a never mentioned ex-wife, and you’ve got yourself a hit. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1543 love this show it rocks annette http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1543 Sat, 29 Sep 2007 05:54:51 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1558 yes this show is hot hot hot I cant wait to see it more often I dream about some of the characters and what might happen in the next show adkins795 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1558 Sat, 29 Sep 2007 22:43:28 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1578 Still filled with drama as usual.

Dr. Burke will not be missed. ck2385 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/28/GREYS-ANATOMY----Season-Premiere.aspx#1661 Sat, 06 Oct 2007 06:39:56 GMT
