Grey’s Anatomy appeared on ABC in March 2005. Five surgical interns, Meredith Grey, Cristina Yang, Isobel Stevens, Alex Karev and George O’Malley, competing and negotiating their work and relationships with each other and their three supervisors, Derek Shepherd “McDreamy,” Preston Burke, and Miranda Bailey. Rhimes described her hit show on the Tavis Smiley Show saying, “Grey’s Anatomy is more than just a medical drama. It is about people who are starting a job, and on a bad day you kill somebody...and on a good day, you save a life” (Rhimes 2005). Grey’s Anatomy is a large ensemble drama with a very diverse cast where race is solely limited to the colors of the character’s body.

There is always new life lesions integrated into each storyline. There is also a perspective of life and personality placed with each character. Behind each and every scene there is a greater purpose that the producer embedded into it. This subconsciously has the watcher learn a lesson while watching the series and having them more attached to the show. This is all within the production Grey’s Anatomy. Incorporating that there is a way for one to be successful in whatever they dream whether they are male or female, young or old, rich or poor. The message that any person no matter who they are can do what they put their mind too even if it is a high status career. Explaining the work that it takes to get there and obstacles they will have to overcome. With this accomplishment of a great career due to their hard work it is also possible for them to have great relationships and family life outside of work. Grey’s just as any other well created series can help sculpt the minds of this generation. Television is an adequate way enforce much needed societal messages to the population, trying to help change the wrong doings present in this

In the TV show of Riverdale, the main character, Archie Andrews, is much like Socrates because both of their decisions are based on whether to save themselves or to benefit society. The basis of this is that Archie has to decide whether to do something that goes against his best interest, (due to the societal torment both him and Miss Grundy will receive if their relationship is discovered) but will help society as a whole (by finding out information to help with the murder), or do the opposite and help himself, but not help society. This connects to Plato’s argument in the Crito as Socrates has to make a similar decision on whether to save himself, and hurt society, or save society and let himself die.

In Ken Kesey’s novel “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, the nurse Miss Ratched is a fine example of a realistic fictional villain. Possession of three key components is essential in identifying what makes Miss Ratched a villian. Motive is what drives the villain to commit the very acts that allow them to be considered evil in the first place, and often drive their entire being as a character. While they must possess motive, they must also have a sense of morals that coincides with their motives (typically evil, or distorted) and follow their moral compass in a way that often causes trouble for those around them. Additionally, a villain is frequently associated with their opposite; the hero who combats them. Kesey’s character perfectly aligns with these three categories of what makes a villain, and it is unquestionable that she is the villain of the novel.

The venue, Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital, incorporates many examples of Anatomy throughout the different cases as well as the surgeons themselves. For instance, each surgeon specializes in the different organ systems of the body; Cardiothoracic surgeon (Cristina Yang), Trauma surgeon (Owen Hunt), Pediatric surgeon (Arizona Robbins), Neurosurgeon (Derek Shepherd), Plastic surgeon (Mark Sloan), Orthopedic surgeon (Callie Torres) and the general surgeons (Miranda Bailey and Meredith Grey). This television series gives a glimpse

Seattle is also home to Seattle Grace Hospital a place where lives are constantly put on the line, and thinking on your feet comes with the territory. Seattle Grace was also where Meredith’s mother completed her surgical residency. With that said, after taking some time and deciding what she wanted to pursue in terms of a career, Meredith ultimately decides to go to medical school, and follow in her mothers foot steps as a surgeon. During this time Meredith also finds out that the “great” Ellis Grey (her

When times get tough and the only way to survive is to keep fighting, there are two choices: either you sink or you swim. At least that’s the mentality that belongs to the young, soon-to-be medical doctors in the 2005 TV series Grey’s Anatomy. Already having 8 seasons of surgical miracles, everlasting camaraderies, problematic love triangles, and life-threatening decisions, Grey’s Anatomy portrays a “dramedy” which focuses on a highly intellectual group of interns, residents, and attendings that strive to one-up each other in order to rank as the best, save the lives of patients, and keep the reputation of Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital. Nonetheless, many of the characters

Each character has there own story and their own set of problems. These problems usually somehow end up in the hospital where they work. This show has main characters like any other tv show or movie. Some of them are Meredith Grey, Derek Shepherd, Christina Yang, Alex Karev, Miranda Bailey and many others. The show tends to focus on their lives as surgeons and their lives at home. Making it interesting and seem more like real life, than a show with scripts and fake characters. Whenever there is a patient that comes into the hospital you get so attached to them and their different backgrounds as they fight to stay alive. This makes things more interesting when they survive and more devastating when they don’t. They treat the show as if it were a real hospital with actors shouting out orders, and making cuts on the patients during surgery. This makes it more relatable to the viewers when they go into a hospital. I have watched almost every episode of this show and I have cried, laughed, and binged watched most of the seasons. I have these emotions because of the way that Shonda Rhimes makes it impossible to stop

In the fourth episode of the series, “My Old Lady”, the main character, JD, is told by his patient who is an old woman, that she is ready to die. In that moment, it shook me that while it is a doctor’s duty to save a patient, the patient wants to be let go sometimes. JD spends the rest of the episode working off the clock to change her mind, but she she doesn't change her mind. Knowing that doctors really care about their patients really assures the viewers that they are in good hand when

Grey’s Anatomy is a medical drama television series on ABC that is about a group of surgical interns working at Seattle Grace Hospital. Many people watch the show for the entertainment and drama, but the series portrays more than just that. The series not only creates a negative stereotype of doctors in today’s society, but also shows different topics and themes of diversity, such as gender, ethnicity, and gender identity.

Ahead of the drama’s return this month, Grey’s executive producer Debbie Allen talked to TVLine about what’s in store for the docs at Grey Sloan Memorial. In addition to revealing what happens in the aftermath of season 13’s cliffhanger, Allen revealed to TVLine that the upcoming season will find Meredith “going through her own self-analysis and her own rediscovery of herself.”

After watching the first two episodes of Doctor Who's ninth season, it has become clear Peter Capaldi is on his way to becoming one for the greatest Doctors, if not the greatest Doctor Who, of all time. Capaldi's portrayal of The Doctor is truly inspired by the classic, original series (1963-1989), while still being completely modern.

With the Season 6 finale of “The Walking Dead” not revealing the identity of Negan’s victim (presumed to be Daryl) and leaving us on tenterhooks, Melissa McBride aka Carol has made some interesting revelations in an interview recently.

There have been several awesome walker kills in The Walking Dead over the span of 6 seasons, but Andrew Lincoln’s favorite zombie slaying has little to do with violence and more to do with the emotional side of the kills. But which of Rick Grimes’ walker kills is most memorable for Lincoln?

The statement the doctor made really upset Meagan. While I wasn’t disturbed or frustrated by the special attention and treatment this family was getting, I could not help but find it extremely interesting. I watched as Meagan went out of her way to be extra nice and respectful when she spoke to the patient and her family, the way her needs seemed to be priority over all out other patients, and the way it even shifted the whole atmosphere of the floor in a way. This is the main event I will be discussing for the remainder of this journal.
