I think it might work out as a book actually, maybe structured like a diary, but it's highly unlikely that's ever going to happen

I liked the show when it was a proper medical drama but in time it's become too focused on protagonists whose families show a concentration of bad luck.
I wouldn't say it annoyed me but I think they do it so they make the medical case mean more to you as a viewer if it is one of the characters of someone they love. It makes sense keeps the viewer engaged in case one of your fave dies.

Of course it's very subjective. My problem is that for me the doctors are the one who save the patients, seeing them so often as patients themselves is weird and I don't feel a particular sympathy to them compared to normal patients. In a way I feel cheated because I feel they're sort of arm-twisting me into feeling for them so the effect is the opposite. If they had just one case for each season like Izzy many years ago it would be OK but they pushed too much for my taste. When Izzy went away and they killed George I felt annoyed already. When there was the plane crash - besides the fact that they made a story-arc that looked too much like the beginning of Lost - I felt particularly sad for Lexi's death but then I felt like the show had jumped the shark.Moodykelz_10 wrote: ↑26 Aug 2019, 10:37

Probably my reaction is due to the fact that I was watching Grey's Anatomy for the medical cases and cared little for most doctors. The show was "heavy" on them since the beginning and I sort of endured those soap opera elements but when they became predominant my interest went down.
