Will Derek sign the papers, dump Addison and take up with Meredith? Can Preston and Cristina's relationship ever work? And what the hell is up with Alex?

Seriously, I've been watching 3 episodes a night and not really wanting to stop there, but it's late.

If I start watching Oprah, somebody just shoot me m'kay?

I don't know about you, but when I binge a show that's got a bunch of seasons, I tend to burn out with a season or two left. Just take care that you don't end up hating the show cuz you're watching so much so quickly!

What’s wrong with The View. It’s my primary source for news and current events.

I enjoyed the show quite a bit up until the point where they purchased the hospital.

** I’ll leave the details out to avoid any spoilers.

The “double-oh-seven” episode will break your heart.

Actually a lot of them will, that show kills off main characters like Game of Thrones.

Always been more of a House fan, over Grey's.

I burned out on House a while back. Same plot on every episode: Patient has mysterious disease, staff tries everything under the Sun, patient is circling the drain, House in for the save at the last minute.

I sincerely hope Grey's doesn't go there.

@ Orguss - yeah, I'm familiar with the phenomenon. Been there, done that on a couple of shows.

@ YooperSigs - If I wake up and The View is on, there won't be any need for a squad, I'll do myself!

True, there is some repetition with the cycle of each episode. But, similar to something like Longmire, the overarching backstory takes the focus & the episodes just drive it forward.

When I went from Bosch to Longmire. the shift from a season-long 'catch the bad guy' to a new bad guy every 1-3 episodes was a bit of an adjustment.

How many seasons in are you? It goes off the rails eventually and too much anti-god LGBTQXYZ crap injected into the show for me.

I guess there's at least 18 seasons and my wife stopped watching due to BLM and COVID propaganda this past year. I lost interest after a couple of seasons. After the main players left the show (the chick from the ugly truth, the asian gal and whoever played Dr Shepherd) it lost its way.

Yeah, I kinda suspected it'd go that way eventually. I'm mostly through Season 2 and it's still interesting to me. Once it gets too PC, I'll drop it. I've dropped a couple of otherwise decent shows because of it. I won't be preached to.

I watched three seasons of this with my wife and daughter. After season three it jumps the shark IMHO.

This is often the case. I figure most network shows have three to four full seasons in them before they start rehashing old material and plot lines. In more recent years, it may be a season or so longer, but that is because there are fewer shows per season. I have been proven correct time after time.

I never watched Gray's Anatomy, though, so I got no help for you PHPaul.

Mr Paul, I love Grey's Anatomy...it's gets a bit deep sometimes...some seasons don't have an ounce of let up...all sad drama.

Otherwise I think it's a hell of a good show...
