Grey's Anatomy - Season 1 (2005) DVD

Grey's Anatomy - Season 1 (2005)

Grey's Anatomy - Season 1  (2005) DVD

Summary: Fantastic!!! The most addictive thing ever! Trust me, you don't want to miss it.
Comment: I walked into my living room, sat down, and turned on the tv. I had seen adverts for the show and they looked interesting. But quite by accident did i catch the first episode.
Hello addiction.
I used to watch ER on occasion and thought that it was a really good show. But with "Grey's" i literally didn't want to miss an episode. I found myself setting a time slot in my day to watch it that i missed maybe twice but always caught up with on another day.
Understand that i have a very busy schedule which is why i watch DVDs alot - i can watch them whenever. But during the week, if i watch any tv it's hap-hazard. This, however, i refused to miss.
FUNNY, SHOCKING, EXCITING, HEART-RACING.
This show works so well because its so realistic, so human and you relate so much to the characters - they're learning, they're making mistakes and living life where they have to soldier on because they have responsibilities.
In 9 episodes it became (through ratings and polls) the most addictive TV show for years upon years.

And you may notice that ER was supposed to be finished. Done. Gone. For good. But 5 episodes into Grey's second series and ER mysteriously shows up again with a new series. And low and behold its ratings are actually down from their last recorded numbers.

NEW, FUN, EXCITING, INFURIATING, LOVEABLE, PULSE-POUNDING. Just some of the reasons that we all got hooked. Watch it! Trust me, you don't, want to miss out.

Summary: Not just another hospital show
Comment: Grey's Anatomy is one of the best shows on T.V. right now. It's new, fresh, and always exciting. I haven't missed an episode since the first one and I'm so glad. I can't wait until this box set comes out so I can rush out and buy it!

Summary: Best Series EVER!!!
Comment: This has to be the best show since Friends. It combines humor and drama and doesn't focus on one too much over the other. The show deals with series issues and some hilarious mishaps. I love the Grey/Shepherd/Addison Shepherd love triangle. It creates a great element to the show and makes me yearn for more (although I don't agree with Shepherd choosing his wife over Grey!!). I recommend this DVD collection to any and everyone.

Summary: The Best Show on TV
Comment: This is the single best show on tv right now. It has characters that you love and those that you love to hate. I have everyone I know hooked on it.

Summary: "even the biggest failure, even the worst, beats the hell out of never trying"
Comment: I study, work, go to the gym and to the cinema, and still have some extra time to watch tv. Truth to be told, I don't have that much extra time, so I like to take advantage of it by watching only series that are very good. "Grey's anatomy" is simply excellent :)

The plot is not overly complicated, but what really makes this show different, when comparing it to others, is the superb cast and of course the great storylines. "Grey's anathomy" tells us about the lives of five surgical interns: Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), "Izzie" Stevens (Katherine Heigl), Christina Yang (Sandra Oh), George O'Malley (T.R. Knight ) and Alex Karev (Justin Chambers). Moreover, we also get to know about their teachers, teachers that in the case of Dr. Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) and Dr. Preston Burke (Isaiah Washington) become much more than that.

In one of the many episodes that this dvd has, Meredith says that "We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beats the hell out of never trying". Please give this dvd a try as soon as it is released. You won't regret it! Of course, highly recommended...

Editorial Reviews:

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
