i know where we might end up

cold4thestreets may scoff at the subject of this post, but i have to vent over the rapid implosion of grey's anatomy. i started watching it mostly because of sandra oh (who also provided the main character's voice in an animated short). the show was promising enough in the beginning with its multiracial cast and bevy of superhot men. the plotlines were just cheesy and soap-y enough for me to watch every week. i even ignored ellen pompeo's gaunt figure and tinny voice.

then came the infamous superbowl episode. oh wait, the show somehow became even more melodramatic and absurd with izzy and the LVAD wire fiasco. now each episode is more painful and clunky than the last, with incoherent yet completely predictable storylines. why, izzy inherited $8 million from her dead husband and there is a young patient with an exotic disease who cannot receive treatment because of those evil HMO guys? ugh.

of course, i need to remind nobody about the whole isaiah washington/TR knight imbroglio. sigh.
