I liked Grey's Anatomy when it first started, but i got sick of it towards the end because of all the cliched melodrama. I think Grey's Anatomy also illustrates a rather unrealistic portrait of the medical system. I mean, do doctors really glare at eachother over the operating table while performing brain surgery(as Meredith and Dr. 'Mcdreamy' tend to) Do world renowned neurosurgeons (represented by Addison Montgomery Shepherd) perform operations with their hair hanging all over the place? Do doctors actually compete for patients as a 'exciting' operations like Cristina constantly does? (Why do I get all the boring operations?, she asks indignantly) If any of this goes on in reality, our medical system is seriously and incontrovertably flawed. Whats more, the voice over also becomes sufficiantly irritating, as Meredith opens and closes the episodes by declaring the bleeding obvious. The image that Grey's Anatomy projects of teh medical world is not only unrealistic, but you also get the impression that the characters in this show care more for the status, prestige and image that comes with being a doctor, rather then the responsibility and serving the public.
