OK, it has happened. For years I have been listening to the hype of Dr. McDreamy and the cast of “Grey’s Anatomy” but after watching a couple of episodes a few years ago refused to watch again after an episode where open heart surgery was performed without anesthesia. That all changed on December 18, 2010.
I started with the Season 1 DVD while I was at Anna’s house after Aiden was born. I thought maybe it was just a passing phase, when I did not get to see what happened to Christina and her baby in Season 2 because I left for home, I was a bit disappointed but survived. Then my daughter hooked me up with series on Netflix. Now, I am working my way through Season 2.
I find myself sitting up way past my bedtime so I can see “what happens next”. I also find myself waking up and thinking about the events of the hospital in the middle of the night…I haven’t been this hooked on a nighttime soap since “Dallas”.
This is my thing – I love Meredith’s narrative of the show. While the show is a little off the course of true life drama, the narratives are spot on with me, my life and the way I think about the daily happenings. Often times I find them hitting a little too close to home and end up trying to watch the show through way too many tears!
So, tonight I will finish Season 2 and most likely start Season 3 – I can’t wait!
