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.

with the cast of Grey's Anatomy.
High |Medium | Low | 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

 Favorite guilty pleasure October 20, 2008
Norma J. Bottoms (Florida, USA)
Grey's Anatomy is my favorite "guilty pleasure" and it doesn't get any better than Season One. Except for Season 2. And 3. And 4.....
 Not thrilled, but satisfied October 8, 2008
Michelle (New Jersey)
All I received was the two discs in plastic cases. I was warned that there was no "album artwork" but was unaware of how bare the DVD's would actually come. The season is amazing, however, and makes up it. The discs were in good shape.
EXCELLENT September 24, 2008
Ann-Maria Fleming
I love the first season. It's the beginning of it all. It's great to go back and see them all before their lives changed at Seattle Grace. I love their energy and enthusiasm.
DYNAMIC! September 7, 2008
Maria Augusto (Santos, Brazil)
"Grey's Anatomy" is a great series. And here you can watch the beginning of everything! We are the witnesses for the stories of the new interns of Seattle's Grace Hospital which mix drama and at certain point, comedy, why not? Life is like this, sometimes we laught and sometimes we cry. Highlights: Ellen Pompeo and Patrick Dempsey, she is a promising brilliant surgeon, and he is her superior and mentor and much more... Lovely couple! Watch it over and over again!
 the beginning to a knock-out show! August 18, 2008
calinative (San Francisco Bay Area)
From the moment the first few seconds of the pilot of Grey's Anatomy started, I could tell that it was going to entertain me like nothing has before. The characters were fresh and real, the recurring storylines were well-written and real, and most of all, the acting was the best I have ever seen on television. Creator Shonda Rimes has created a medical soap opera that tops all tv shows on the air. The recurring dramatic plots include: George's secret feelings for Meredith, Burke and Shepherd's struggle for power in the OR, Chief Webber's brain cancer, Derek's pursue and controversial romance with Meredith, and Meredith's struggle to keep her mothers disease under wraps. I highly suggest viewing with patience as the show takes its time with the character development and progress. Hopefully seasons to come get better and better.
