Grey’s Anatomy Is As Good As People Say

Until the other night, I had never seen an episode of Grey’s Anatomy.

Here’s how it happened:

Because there was nothing good on the Tivo, and Noell and I wanted some additional boxed entertainment, we quickly visited the iTunes Store, and downloaded Season 1, Episode 1, entitled “Pilot.”

The show was significantly better than I had imagined. The character development was excellent and authentic. The plots and subplots were interesting. The setting, a Seattle educational hospital, was foreign enough to cause ample amounts of fascination. The acting was superb. And the main character, Meredith Grey, was completely adorable.

Like millions of other people around the world, I am now hooked. I’m looking forward to playing catch-up on all the episodes between number one and the present.
