I have come to love Grey's Anatomy over the years and have re watched on Netflix a few times over. The only thing I would say is a huge flaw in the show is the whole character of Izzy. Not only is she completely incompetent, and seems way behind the other interns/residents the entire time she is on the show, but she crosses the line so many times that I swear I would hope to God, that noI have come to love Grey's Anatomy over the years and have re watched on Netflix a few times over. The only thing I would say is a huge flaw in the show is the whole character of Izzy. Not only is she completely incompetent, and seems way behind the other interns/residents the entire time she is on the show, but she crosses the line so many times that I swear I would hope to God, that no hospital would ever permit such an insubordinate and reckless staff member to remain employed in a real hospital! The whole Denny thing, she should have not only lost her license and job she should have been written off by going to jail.
In later seasons, Alex catches his fiance in their bedroom with a co worker who seems like from Alex's point of view, they are going to sleep together and reacts and he ends up on charges, in jail, fighting for his job, and yet Izzy stole an organ, killed a man, as if the events hadn't happened the way they did, Denny may have lived, got Burke shot, etc and not a charge, nothing. I would have to say that is, I think the only think that I have to literally skip past because it just annoys to me too much to even watch it! I guess it's because again I'd hope to God no hospital would ever allow anyone like her character to be employed by especially a hospital where people's lives are in their hands.
The other story lines are pretty good and even on the edge of your seat good! The heated chemo lavage episode based on a real treatment used and the inspiration of Dr's trying to use new things to treat all different types of surgical issues is the kind of Dr's I'd hope to end up with if ever faced with surgery.
Jo's character, also not one I like at all! She didn't have what it took from the beginning, crying to get what she wanted, and then the whole domestic violence thing, but again led her to think she could do as she pleased and be above the law. When she beat Chess Peckwell, (Jason Myers) within an inch of his life, regardless if he hit her first or not, she should have been held accountable! She clearly did more damage to him than him her. I wouldn't want to think in real life a woman could be allowed to do that to anyone and get away with it regardless of what their past. It sends a very wrong messege. She spends more time with drama than doing her job as a Dr, and she comes off same as Izzy, not as smart or competent as her co workers but more behind letting her personal life get in the way of her job, constantly, even in the OR with a patient on the table. Again wouldn't want that person in an operating room where I'm on the table. These two characters Jo and Izzy, I just think if they were going to be on, it should have been as patients or family of patients that starting dating Alex or whoever, but not be Dr's, or surgeons as the thought of that, I don't know about anyone else, but it's a scary thought to think anyone like them would be on the other end of a scalpel in a room where I'm having surgery.
I guess the only other thing is just the dismissal of characters by ways which would never happen, and dismissing such loved characters, doesn't help the show. George, Mark, Lexi, Derrick, Brooks, Reid, (although I didn't like her character at all either), but shot in the head, wow. It's like they get you just adoring characters and really loving them and that's it, they're gone. Overall I would say it's a great drama otherwise, just try and keep some of the last characters that are originals on the show!… Expand
