:rotfl: My life revolves around Sports since I played them very seriously before knees crashed in high school or it would have been college too (scholarships in soccer or basketball were in place) so I guess it was meant to be. :embarrassment: LOL.

But you either love or hate Sports I think, not much in between. :lmao:

:lol: Got it!

MerDer, yes i shipped them though I got kind of bored of them after season 3.

The show was really well done in the beginning. Amazing music, and quites, very oth season 1 feels imo. Very important writng and messages in most episodes. It just had that special spark to it.

They did the medical cases extremely well and you find yourself getting attached to the patients unlike on ER where they barely show the patients. Its completely balanced.

Teh show is still good I just dont think is has that same special spark anymore. Only meredith, bailey and richard have been there since season 1, which is pretty crazy. There are other likable characters but its not quite the same as the early seasons.
Makes sense.

If you had to give a reasoning as to why the series has lasted for so long, what would it be? Is it simply the ratings? I mean, you explained aspects of why it is so compelling but so many shows with high quality still only last 4-6 years. See Everwood. Why has GA gone much deeper and longer?

Think you'll do it before Volume 2 arrives or wait until after it drops?

Will definitely try and watch it before Part 2 comes out

No clue Michelle! LMAO. Shonda is a good writer for one, I also think the show has good ratings, anddddd the fact that the main actress meredith/ellen is so heavily involved it keeps it sucessful. If she wanted to leave, I dont think it would have gone on as long. But TV shows sure seem to go on longer and longer now huh lol. I am ready for it to be done. I hope season 20 is the last. But it is sort of like a comfort show cuz I started watchng in HS in like season, so its special to me.

Love Victor comes back soon! The trailer looks bad though. :lol:

One more episode of Legacies! :omg:

Also, I finished my GG rewatch, but i still ahve the revival eps to watch! im excited!

Will try to get another episode of AOS in here soon.

I watched this season and was so confused. I mostly came back for scott speedman. It was really nice to see him in a rom com role again.

Good idea. It seems pretty much a sure thing what happens during the final moments of Part 2 will be enormous since it sets things up for the final season. It will be nearly impossible to avoid spoilers at that point if you're anywhere near social media.

:lol: You pretty much answered it already with Meredith as the number one reason. But like you said the good writing as well, ratings obviously have to be there. :nod:

Back to Meredith… we’ve seen so many shows fail when a main actor/actress leaves. This is obviously on a way lower level but look at The OC when Mischa left. Most people either loved or hated Marissa but there’s no doubt when she left it was the beginning of the end of the show. Chad and Hilarie, OTH, the show became pretty unrecognizable even if other aspects/actors held it down just a bit.

But it’s highly improbable a TV series can last when leads leave. Meredith was so strong the show survived Patrick leaving so she’s been the anchor.

What is Love Victor about?

Yeah, it's hard to avoid spoilers right now

No problem

It really is!

Everywhere you turn, spoilers.

jediwands 06-11-2022 05:40 PM

I still have to watch The Flash!

I think I spoke too soon about the episode. Early reviews were good but there's plenty of people who hated the episode.

Have you seen it yet, Sam?

jediwands 06-11-2022 05:41 PM

Iris can also return anytime now.

CP had this planned time off so it is by choice but still, my God, without Iris, it sucks.

This season as a whole has been terrible because even when Iris is on the screen she's separated from most.
