A Grey’s Autobiography

While I’m supposed to write Grey’s news and such, there’s not much really going on right now. So I’ll take a pause and present my own “Anatomy” history.
I remember the first time I watched Grey’s. I had seen the previews on ABC and had been intrigued by it. Medical dramas always seem to fascinate me; and adding young, struggling professionals trying to make it in a dog-eat-dog world really gets me where I am.
I was sitting at home that Sunday evening flipping channels and trying to forget that I had to work the next day when I ran across the pilot episode and decided to give it a try.
I have been hooked ever since.
I faithfully each Sunday made sure I was at my place (after visiting family for the weekend), seated on the couch waiting for the drama to begin.
I remember my first mouth-dropping moment – the final episode of Season 1 when Addison tells Meredith, “You must be the one who’s sleeping with my husband” (or something to that effect).
It always irks me when they leave a show like that, but it also intrigues me, which is, I’m sure the intent of the season-ending shocker.
When season two begins, I am one again planted in front of the set on Sunday nights making by way through the Izzie-Denny storyline and the continued Meredith-Derek-Addison triangle. And what an emotional finale that was! The love scene with Meredith and Derek at the prom was deemed one of the hottest ever by Cosmo (I agree).
While waiting for Season 3 and for Season 2 on DVD, I become anxious to find a Grey’s buddy. So on a visit with my sister, I take my Grey’s Season 1 DVD and propose a marathon.
Now my sister is almost as hooked as I am, and a Private Practice fan too. To catch up on the show, she would borrow my DVD’s. Now, she has TiVo and we are able to talk Grey’s when the mood strikes.
In season three, I am frustrated by the show’s move to Thursday (at the same time as another favorite show, CSI). My attempt to make the sacrifice and watch Grey’s is thwarted, so I eagerly await the arrival of the DVD and catch up that way.
Now, the process continues. I am once again waiting for another season to begin and saving up for Season 4 on DVD — all while looking for fun news and facts to share with my fellow fans on everythinggreys.
