I'm not super invested in any of the characters or stories so far. There weren't any clever lines in the script or moments that really resonated with me, like some of the last few seasons.
I also felt the women weren't portrayed as strongly as previously. It's fine they show vulnerability, but it was almost all of them needing the guys to prop them up eg Jo and Link, then in the ambulance, Teddy's operation - come on - would it really only be the male surgeons that xan keep it together, and Teddy's story too. It grated on me. Having women that were slaying it was empowering and has been one of the greatest aspects of the show.
There were too many spoilers were on social media so the element of surprise was totally gone when I watched this episode. I didn't get that emotional punch which some previous Grey's stories have done exceptionally well.
I was thrilled GA is back. It's a pair of comfortable old shoes that I can't bear to throw away, but the magic has gone. I did enjoy some of the last few seasons.
I binge watched over several months the last 5 years after not watching it forever. Some were must see and I couldn't help wanting more now and then.
I realise that when they get enough medical drama in rather than go heavy on the personal lives, it works better. My mind just starts wandering and I get bored, I do the dishes and skip bits, especially where there's quite a few characters I'm not fussed about.
They've written out most of the characters I got attached to. It's a shame, as it is characters which really are the beating heart of it. The mega memorable ones who we grew to love is what made this show so amazing.
I will keep watching it, but I do feel sad that it's nowhere near the outstanding drama it once was.
