Grey's Anatomy: Season 18

October 10, 2021 7:38 PM - Season 18 (Full Season)

They're really doing this: even more Grey's Anatomy. And this season, they've decided to move on to a "fictional near future in which the pandemic is over."

The first episode wasn't the best but I enjoyed the second one, very old greys feeling.

The priest killed by tandem bike bit was dumb, even for Grey's. From a standpoint of this-is-fiction-and-not-life, I wish they'd just taken out Teddy & Owen who are insufferable anyway.

The new plastics surgeon seems like a potentially interesting character and yet, her mere existence frustrates, since there are so many unexplored characters already in the cast. Nico is basically a sexy haircut and Helm is a stack of loosely related neuroses with minimal backstory. Heck, when Scott Speedman showed up, we had to find a GA wikia and look that shit up, because neither of us could remember his guest arc from 2018 at all.

I would so be 100% on board if they do a soft reboot and move a handful of the core stars to this new hospital/clinic in Minnesota. They're so overfull on characters. A culling/refocusing would be so good.

Agree with all of the above, but ADDISON!

I'm sorry, it's so funny that Ellen Pompeo has been doing interviews BEGGING them to cancel Grey's, and they're like, "Nope, here an even bigger pile of money for season 19."
