Medical shows on TV/Gray's Anatomy

<p>Stinks that the season is over this Sun. Oh well, it'll be back really soon due to its success.</p>

<p>As an aside to you future docs & in response to impactangel's observation: there is really almost no doctor-doctor or doctor-nurse physical involvement in training programs/teaching hospitals and there is never any such thing or even innuendo btwn doctor-pt. In my 6 post grad years of training in big city hospitals i cannot recall a single incident of that sort. There was perhaps a bit of off-premises dating, but very little. I think in general docs are very cautious about crossing certain moral boundaries, at least in the workplace.</p>

<p>actualyl season is over on teh sunday after next (22nd).. I was surprised when u said it was ending so soon so i checked.. I still can't beleive their ending it after only 9 shows...</p>

<p>Yea...I figured that much</p>

<p>But sex sells and it's a region that ER/House/Scrubs/Medical Investigation hadn't explored too deeply so I guess Grey's Anatomy is trying to seize that opportunity.</p>

<p>At the very least, it makes for good TV! haha</p>

<p>nip/tuck.. ur forgetting about nip/tuck.. can't imagine that it is too realistic, but it is entertaining as hell!</p>

<p>LOTS of sex in nip/tuck, though... I think grey's anatomy is a perfect blend of nip/tuck, scrubs, and ER.</p>

<p>oooh yea...good show too</p>

<p>I can barely get through one episode though without grimacing at the gruesome plastic surgery</p>

<p>definitely not the field for me! hahaha</p>

<p>Plastic surgery, the only thing that I can't stomach nearly as well as other things in medicine. Its kinda weird. Any other surgery that I have seen, I have no problem watching, plastic surg, its just barbaric to me.</p>

<p>I'll have to watch this, sounds really interesting! I love medical books and shows, I was watching ER when I was home sick on monday :)</p>

<p>ER is the same damn thing every episode, but some episodes were very powerful and were more than just constant screaming of, "Stat, get me an IV, he's going into shock!." Clooney was the only cast member I liked. Oh, how I loathed that smug Dr. Weaver.</p>

<p>Dr Weaver is quite a genuine character; I've known a few like her and none of them cared whether you liked them or not.
While being Dr Weaver's intern or resident may be a bit harsh, being her patient is an awfully good thing.
In the end, when you develop her work ethic, she takes you into her confidence and then you have made a friend out of a great teacher.</p>
