Grey's New Mojo

In 2006 I wrote the following about Grey's Anatomy in my previous blog:

"The only other show I watch regularly, Grey's Anatomy, started out as an interesting show that explored the experiences of young doctors going through their internships. I've always found the psychological, emotional, and physical impact of the medical internship to be fascinating after reading Robin Cook's excellent "Year of the Intern", which basically argued that the workload and stress experienced by medical interns may not be the best way to train someone to be a doctor. Since the first season, however, Grey's Anatomy has descended into a soap opera that explores only a few medical/internship issues and now explores having affairs….how pathetic."

Grey's Anatomy soap opera continued for 2007 and 2008, but, for unknown reasons, the show has returned to its roots and been amazing this year. Welcome back and congratulations.
