Just when you wanted to say 'Oh no, not another hospital drama,' Grey's Anatomy turns into one of the most addicting series on television. With no big stars and no hype, the ABC series debuted last spring as a mid-season replacement and became a bonafide smash in its nine-episode season.

The series, a hybrid of House's medical detectives and Dawson's Creek's hormones and catchy pop-rock soundtrack, follows five competitive surgical interns at the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital. There's optimistic ex-model Izzie (Katherine Heigl), bumbling do-gooder George (T.R. Knight), competitive glacier Cristina (Sandra Oh), cocky womanizer Alex (Justin Chambers), and the show's namesake, Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), whose medical career is complicated by her famous surgeon mother who now lives with Alzheimer's, and her frowned-upon relationship with another surgeon, Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey, enjoying the best career revival since Rob Lowe). The doctors juggle romance and foster friendships while trying not to stab each other in the back over surgeries.

Grey's Anatomy's first season, while entertaining, went a little far trying to find its groove, overdosing on Meredith's overly simplistic voice-overs ('At the end of the day… faith is a funny thing'), and musical montages. It has the usual trappings of a hospital drama (unusual cases, such as the patient with the 70-pound tumor, and trysts in the on-call room), but with more warm fuzzies and light touches. (Sometimes, a little too light--the opening credits sequence features an eyelash curler next to medical instruments and red-painted toes savorting with a male patient under a sheet)

Pompeo, who can sound just like Renee Zellweger if you close your eyes, is likeable but not strong enough of a presence compared to her co-stars. Luckily the quirky dialogue and stellar acting by the ethnically diverse cast, particularly by Chandra Wilson (Dr. Bailey, aka 'the Nazi') and Oh, who won a Golden Globe for best supporting actress, more than make up for it. The DVD covers the first season's nine episodes, plus commentary on the pilot and a behind-the-scenes feature. --Ellen A. Kim

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing hospital show
This show is one of my favorite TV shows, and I only started watching it in the last week! It has such a great story line and wonderful characters. I have spent my fair share of time in hospitals, and it is so cool to see a TV show that can be so entertaining and yet fairly accurate at the same time. I was disappointed that there were only 9 episodes to the first season, but they are so wonderful that it makes up for it! Anyone who enjoys an intellectual and serious TV show will love Grey's Anatomy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - ER for the new generation
Grey's Anatomy is a great show not only for Hospital Show veterans, but also for anyone interested in seeing approachable and interesting characters in a TV show. Of course there is enough love, action, and drama to keep it interesting and a pleasure to watch, and the patient cases as well as the interaction between the characters keep the audience emotionally involved in the show.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Love It!
I was first introduced to Grey's Anatomy by my sister. I think it was halfway through season one or two, and I've been hooked ever since.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Grey's Anatomy Season 1
I luv this show but didnt start watching until like the third season so i ordered the first to fill in the gaps and would definitely recommend it to anyone who's interessted. Grey's Anatomy is about a group of Sergery interns starting out at Seattle Grace Hospital and become friends. The season is only 9 episodes so it doesn't take long to watch them all. Buy it and enjoy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For Grey's Fans, a Great Purchase
Obviously, you'd have to be a Grey's Anatomy fan to get into this package, because it chronicles the whole first season. I wasn't into the show heavily at that point; my ex got me into it as it progressed that year, but I do remember a few of these episodes from first-run, and I like having this collection around, on the days that are not Thursday and I want to see a classic episode of this show. One thing: I haven't seen Addison yet, as I don't think she appeared until season 2. No Callie either; she didn't appear until Season 3. This may not be for fans of Season 4 (current season), which is WAY different in tone than these DVDs. At this time, a few years ago, I thought this was the best show on TV ever. Due to some of the cast reshuffling, I no longer feel that way, as I do feel the quality has declined quite a bit (seasons 1-3 were the best, and I'd rate season 4 as 6/10, with some episodes rated as less than that). The "emotional" factor is still there, occasionally, and it is probably heavier than it was in season 1, where they were just defining who the characters were, but I'd definitely say give seasons 1-3 a spin before getting into the post-Burke era, which doesn't seem to be their strongest. Last point: in watching these episodes, it is clear to me that Burke (Isaiah Washington) is sorelly missed, as he was pretty much the "star" of the show at this time. Case in point is the season 4 "let go of the dress" episode, which was just rerun. That is one of the all time worst episodes ... Read More
