Grey's Anatomy	comment	Grey's Anatomy is a long-running ABC Medical Drama. Its creator and showrunner was Shonda Rhimes, for whom it serves as a Star-Making Role.Beginning its life in 2005 as a Mid Season Replacement, Grey's quickly became known for being sort of, well, quirky, especially given its genre: in addition to McNicknaming and using the word "seriously" more than we use the word "egregious", the show is less a medical drama than a romantic drama set at a hospital. Case in point: the first scene of the pilot episode is Narrator Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) waking up after a one-night-stand with a hot guy and rushing off to her first day as an intern at Seattle Grace Hospital... only to discover that said one-night-stand, Dr. Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey), works there too.The show follows the lives, both personal and professional, of a group of surgeons at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital (formerly Seattle Grace, and then Seattle Grace-Mercy West following a merger in Season 6). Meredith narrates most episodes. Though initially focused on Meredith, the other four interns who start alongside her (Sandra Oh, Katherine Heigl, TR Knight, Justin Chambers) and their collective superiors (Dempsey, Chandra Wilson, Isaiah Washington and James Pickens Jr.), the show has introduced numerous characters since its onset, resulting in a large ensemble cast. Additionally, the show has matured somewhat in later years; the wackiness and sexcapades have been largely toned down, resulting in a more serious character study. Some found this deplorable, but the show continues to pull high ratings. (And yes, it served as a Star-Making Role for a lot of those actors too.)Former Trope Namer for Urgent Medical Alert, Grey's Anatomy Emergency Medical Response. Should not be confused with Gray's Anatomy, the famous textbook on human anatomy the title is based on.It forms part of an Expanded Universe, with sister show Private Practice forming part of the universe, canonically, with the mini-series Grey's Anatomy: B-Team contributing to further focus on interns during the mid-season break, and another spin-off about the Seattle Fire Department, Station 19, beginning in 2018. Possibly part of canon, though not referenced in the show, is the videogame (Grey's Anatomy: The Video Game) featuring its own integrated episodic story arc.In November 2022, Ellen Pompeo — who has made no bones of the fact that she stayed in the role for the stability of a steady paycheck — officially left the show. Rhimes has always claimed that the show would end when Pompeo decided she'd had enough... But Rhimes has since left to work for Netflix, and her replacement is leaving too. How the show will re-invent itself for its 20th season, without its title character and under a new showrunner, is an open question.Spoilers unmarked up to Season 14

With Alex's departure in mid- Season 16, Meredith is the last of the original five interns. Lexie's entire class was killed, fired, or forgotten, and Jo and Deluca are last man standing in their respective classes. Even the latest class has lost half its number.

Such episode are usually marked with the colors of title card reversed, with white writing on a black background rather than the usual black-on-white. Season 15's "Silent All These Years" is the only episode to get a "Viewer Discretion Is Advised" warning at the beginning. Given the incredibly heavy nature of the episode, which devotes its entire runtime to exploring the effects of rape, it certainly earns it.

The adrenaline high from an accident can completly mask pain, causing the patient to suddenly crash as adrenaline leaves their system. In "Where the Wild Things Are", a woman gets practically scalped by a bear and doesn't even notice until Meredith realizes she's bleeding and asks to have a look. Servery burned in "Ring of Fire, Stephanie manages to ignore her injuries until her patient is safe, at which point she collapses in agony as the adrenaline wears off.

Grey's Anatomy / int_1c9537cd	comment	The Main Characters Do Everything: And how. Each of the attendings we see seems to be a one-person department. And the surgeons seem to be pretty much the only doctors in the hospital. If a main character gets paged and doesn't show, there's never anybody else to do the job. Callie seems to be the hospital's only othodpedic surgeon, despite starting the show as a resident and lacking an orthopedics attending to teach her. Even, from the time she first appeared until her character left the scene, no other orthopedic surgeon appeared. Until Owen becomes Head of Trauma, the ER seems to lack any actual specialists outside the brown-scrubed residents. The entire oncology department pops into existence when Izzie gets cancer, then vanishes afterward until Maggie's mom needs treatment. Justified as the main characters deal with surgical tumors, while Oncology treats cancer pharmacologically . In addition, much of what the characters do outside the OR is actually what nurses do in real life (meanwhile the nurses on the show do little more than hand over instruments and spread STDs). The surgeons also tend to do all the internal medicine associated with their specialties. X-rays tend to be done by actual techs, or at least developed by them. CT and MRI machines may or may not have an actual dedicated operator, it varies between episodes.

Grey's Anatomy / int_23698fa8	comment	Aborted Arc: As with any show with this many characters that's run for this long, it's bound to happen. Notably: The Dead Baby Bike Race is an annual bike-messenger race infamous for the number of injures it produces. After Season 1 it is never mentioned again. The resident's surgical contest in "Where The Wild Things Are" is revealed be a tradition so long-running that Richard Webber competed as a resident some thirty-something years ago, with the prize of a sparkle pager that allows the holder to steal other resident's surgeries. And then after Season 4 the sparkle pager is forgotten and the contest is never run again. Arizona's prosthetic leg. After being a major focus of Season 9, it is almost never brought up afterwards. Justified in that she probably got used to it, you can't see it most of the time and they probably got tired of filming with it. Bailey has a mental breakdown in season 10 due to her OCD. After a few episodes, she takes one pill, and her OCD is rarely an issue. Probably justified as it was a result of her being a MRSA carrier and over-compensating in an attempt to avoid another outbreak.

The three-episode ferry boat arc in Season 3 takes place over less than a day. The hospital shooting plays out over two episodes and only a few hours. Season Seven's "Golden Hour" takes place in real time, covering one hour.

Grey's Anatomy / int_2882c8c1	comment	Career-Ending Injury: All surgeons dread hand/arm injuries, as they can easily spell the end of their career. Burke required surgery and extensive rehab after being shot, and Derek was benched for several episodes after the plane crash and ultimately required a donated tendon to regain full use of his hand. In "Blink", Callie arranges one for a football player who wants to quit without disappointing his fans, in the form of a much-needed knee replacement. Nicole Herrman's operation saves her life but takes her sight, forcing her to retire. However, she does later work with Arizona in an advisory and teaching role. While Stephanie's burns are not inherently career-ending, she has spent so much of her life in hospitals that she opts to quit and see the world.

Grey's Anatomy / int_28cd01ca	comment	Disappeared Dad: Father-child relationships are explored on the show from different personal reactions from similar situations. Many characters are missing fathers, such as Meredith and Jackson's being absent from their lives for nearly 30 years, and Jo being abandoned as a baby which caused her to really fight for her goals. In the If/Then episode where Meredith was raised by a lucid Ellis and a Richard who left Adele, she is a much lighter person. When Jackson meets his father he is sorely disappointed that he's just a normal guy who went on living his life without a thought of Jackson, which makes him first a bit more negative and then reminds him to be a better father himself. Callie's father briefly disowns her after she comes out, which is a very trying time for her because of their extremely close relationship. There is also the In Universe "dead dads club". So far it includes (main characters): Cristina, George (and the O'Malleys), Alex, Derek, Amelia (and the rest of the Shepherds), Sloan and Sofia, and Zola, Bailey, and Ellis.

In a later episode when Callie comes out to her father and he tries to make her leave Seattle and move back home with him she starts ranting in English but as she gets increasingly furious she swaps between English and Spanish, sometimes mid sentence. Andrew and Carina DeLuca sometimes have unsubtitled conversations in Italian, their native tongue. Most notably, they argued in Italian after Andrew found his sister with Arizona on the couch in Carina's first episode.

Grey's Anatomy / int_2969dda7	comment	Nightmare Fetishist: Absolutely everyone, it's pretty much a job requirement. To be fair, you don't become a surgeon unless you're okay with slicing people open. Cristina is easily the biggest offender, all but actually praying for people to be horribly mangled. The entire cast looks forward to horribly mangled people arriving at the ER, and Meredith ditches the Harper Avery awards when she hears there is a big trauma coming in. Meredith lampshades this in her voiceover for "Superfreak", noting how surgeons grew up as frog-dissecting freaks and then grew up to discover other people with the "same inexplicable urge to take human beings apart." Bailey gets excited about a major windstorm and proclaims that it will be "fun". Callie is in orthopedics and genuinely enjoys her job, which involves heavy use of power tools and brute-forcing joints back into position. Excited neurosurgeons are very bad news. Derek specializes in nightmarish "inoperable" tumors and Amelia isn't much better. She's actually introduced bringing Derek a brain tumor to operate on. Her reaction to what turns out to be her brain tumor?

Strange because this was not a common turn-of-phrase (at least not before the episode aired), and Cristina came from another state and just met Meredith during the episode, after Meredith had used the phrase with Derek. Probably the intention was to form Book Ends, though more common phrasing used both times would have worked fine, and sounded much more natural. Also referring to important people in life as "my person"- the main characters do this frequently, then patients and their families also use it without having heard the main characters say it.

When Meredith nearly drowns they put her heart and lungs on bypass. This requires opening the chest to gain access to said organs. Not only does she never get a scar from this, but she is back at work within a week or so. The sternum takes about three to four months to heal, the first few weeks being quite painful, and during the healing process you are not allowed to do heavy lifting or twisting motions, so basic things like vacuuming the house is not okay to do. Returning to work as a surgeon within a week is simply not possible. Derek at least gets a scar from his procedure, though his sternum also heals in the space of a week somehow. Megan Hunt's abdominal transplant isn't quite done healing when she returns in Season 15, many months later.

Grey's Anatomy / int_440d1d0b	type	Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!
Grey's Anatomy / int_440d1d0b	comment	This may be typical of many tv dramas, but let's clarify anyway that if any real life doctor would practice his job as the main characters with their too frequente Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! attitude, they would be fired for sure and very probably lose their license and facing criminal charges. Izzie's lie about Danny's deteriorating condition to get him the heart would have landed her in jail for years, and she would never have been allowed to work in a hospital or medical facility again. The chief and her friends justify her actions by saying that she was a young resident who, in the end, only wanted to save a man's life. If the authorities had found out that the case was not reported to the police, the entire hospital would have been investigated, everyone involved in the case would have faced criminal charges, and many would have had to resign at least. Meredith treating an uninsured patient was certainly morally the right thing to do, but unfortunately it would not have been enough to save her medical license. Considering her involvement in the aforementioned heart theft case and many other legally gray decisions, Meredith would never have been able to practice medicine. One episode featured the surgeons lying about the time of the surgery, as the patient's insurance benefits had just lapsed and it wouldn't be covered if it was recorded as being done on the actual date, so they backdated it to the previous day. That's insurance fraud, it's a criminal offense, and the insurance company will find out about it. Not only will the surgeons face charges, but the hospital could very well lose its accreditation.

Grey's Anatomy / int_59907e4f	type	Police Are Useless
Grey's Anatomy / int_59907e4f	comment	Police Are Useless: The police response to the hospital shooting is to guard the exits and wait for a six-man SWAT team to clear the entire hospital while shutting down the elevators. Worse, one officer does manage to shoot Gary, but fails to follow up on it and allows the man to escape. Ultimately, the police response gets at least one more person (Dr. Hunt) shot and dooms Percy to bleed out in a hallway. It should be noted that ever since the 1999 Columbine massacre, standard procedure has been for police to enter the building without waiting for SWAT and confront the gunman as soon as possible. During the hack in Season 14, the FBI seems more interested in figuring out who did it than actually fixing the issue. Dr. Parker manages to undo the hack in a few minutes. Averted in cases where the hospital is not directly involved, such as Officer Thompson in "Sympathy For The Parents", who takes on three armed robbers by herself and wins.

Grey's Anatomy / int_619a1f52	comment	Limited Social Circle: For a major hospital, the important cases—and the twisty relationships— all seem to occur in the same corner of the surgery department. Occasionally lampshaded, such as with Derek's "junior varsity" shadow, who we only meet once and whose name none of the main characters can remember. This could be expanded to the hospital itself which seems to only have a surgery department, to the point where the chief of surgery is the head of the entire hospital. Each department only seems to have one attending. This is most notable in the case of orthopedics. Callie is the only ortho surgeon we've met, despite her being a resident at the start of the show. A mere three years out of residency she is now effectively running the department. Another one was mentioned, though he seems to have retired. At one point, Meredith has a one-night stand mostly because the man didn't work at the hospital. When Izzie takes Alex to meet her chemo friends, he is genuinely confused at the idea she has friends he hasn't already met. Tinder is a minor hit among the female surgeons in later seasons as they attempt to meet someone they don't already work with.

Grey's Anatomy / int_61ce93fd	comment	Big Disaster Plot: Most seasons have an episode (or three) that revolves around the doctors dealing with the carnage of some horrible disaster or another, typically towards the end of the season. These tend to be wham episodes, because nothing amps up the drama like a disaster. Some notable examples include: Season 2x05: A big storm hits Seattle Grace Hospital and a power-outage traps George and Alex in an elevator with a patient. George then does open-heart surgery in the elevator as Burke advises from the partially-open door. Season 2x06: A train crash with multiple ensuing casualties. Season 2x16 & 17: A man arrives at the hospital with a bomb lodged in his chest. Season 3x15 & 17: A barge crashes into a ferry boat with many casualties, and Meredith Grey drowns (it's okay, she gets better). Season 4x09 & 10: An ambulance collision in the ER bay leaves multiple paramedics in critical condition fighting for their lives and others trapped in the wreckage. Season 6x14: The roof collapses on a popular restaurant on Valentine's Day and the doctors must treat dozens of injured patients. Season 6x23 & 24: The husband of a deceased patient enters the hospital heavily armed and goes on a shooting rampage. Season 7x18: Callie Torres and Arizona Robbins get into a car crash en route to a romantic weekend getaway, moments after Arizona proposes, that leaves Callie suffering from severe injuries and their unborn child in danger. Season 7x22: Cruelly subverted as the hospital is alerted to a major plane crash, which turns out to kill all but one of the people aboard. Season 8x23 & 24: Meredith, Cristina, Derek, Mark, Lexie, and Arizona board a flight to Boise, ID to take part in a surgery on conjoined twins. Their tiny plane crashes in the woods, critically injuring several passengers. Season 9x23 & 24 and 10x01 & 2: A major storm threatens the newly renamed Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Meredith goes into labor as the hospital loses power for the second time in nine seasons, and a packed school bus flips over right outside of the hospital. Then a mudslide sends a second wave of casualties into the hospital as Heather and Richard are electrocuted. Season 10x24: An explosion at a shopping mall sparks fears of a terrorist attack and both Cristina (leaving for Switzerland) and Leah (fired) show up one last time to pitch in. Season 11x20: A small plane crashes, causing multiple casualties and also traumatic flashbacks for the doctors who were in the plane crash in season 8. Season 11x23 & 24: A tunnel collapse floods the ER and sends a team of doctors into the field to save a man trapped in a car. Season 12x08: A wildfire fills the ER with burned firefighters Season 13x23 & 24: Stephanie is taken hostage by a rapist attempting to escape the hospital and sets him on fire. The resulting explosion reduces the guy to a crisp and starts a large fire that inflicts career-ending burns on Stephanie as she fights her way through the flames to save herself and a little girl. Season 14x08 & 09: A hack takes the entire computer system down, sending the hospital back to pen-and-paper records. Season 15x07 & 08: A major windstorm hits Seattle, flooding the hospital with impalements. Oh, and the hospital loses power for the third time, resulting in the show's second elevator surgery. Season 15x14: A bad batch of drugs floods the ER with overdoses and overflows into the clinic. For the first time in fifteen seasons, there's an actual line of ambulances stacked up waiting their turn to unload.

Grey's Anatomy / int_63371833	comment	Plot Time: In reality, mergers are extremely tedious and time-consuming. Even two small organizations (like hospitals) should take weeks or months, as their respective owners will need to do their due diligence, review each other's financial statements, negotiate terms, consult lawyers, etc etc. In the world of Grey's Anatomy, a merger can be decided on after one meeting with the board, and announced only days later. Though in all fairness they took a large chunk of the fifth season speculating about it. Seasons 1 through 3 supposedly cover a one year span, with Season 3 covering prom time to med school graduation time, a whopping 3 months. The beginning of Season 4 to the beginning of Season 6 equates another 10 months, though Season 6 may actually be a year, given that a number of episodes elapse weeks in time (including one that features Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's all rolled in one). In an episode in season four, Alex ends up on a week's probation after allowing Rebecca Pope into the OR gallery, yet he is back after his probation the next episode, which is repeatedly said to take place the day following the previous ep. Season 9 has veered practically into Timey-Wimey Ball territory here. In the premiere, someone dies and gets an epitaph closing card: "Mark Sloan, 1968-2012." The same episode has videotaped flashbacks to other moments in the deceased's life, including a wedding marked "2009"—though the episode that depicted this wedding aired in May 2011. In the second episode (itself a Whole Episode Flashback), Meredith claims to Cristina that they first met (in Season 1) five years ago. Then in the 7th episode Meredith discovers she's three weeks pregnant; she gives birth in the finale. This means the entire season is a minimum of about 10 months long, covering more Plot time than it does Real Life time! Season 11's "She's Leaving Home: Part 1/Part 2" covers an entire year as Meredith flees Seattle after Derek's death. This is how the show has pretty much ended up set in 2017 airing in 2017, by having some seasons show a period of 3 months and others 3 years.

In the second, they continue their no-strings-attached sexual relationship, resulting in a Masochism Tango in which they repeatedly break up and reunite, and while Cristina is successful and wins multiple Harper Averys, Owen's desire for children and a family ultimately drives him to alcoholism and gets him fired.

Second, Hunt's military rank means nothing outside the military. And finally, Derek is talking about a neuro issue. As head of Neuro, Derek trumps everyone. Hunt's facial hair is also completely out of regulation and would see him facing disciplinary action in Real Life. Somehow George is shipping out to Iraq within days of enlisting.

So she asks around in her operating room for someone O Neg or B Neg, noting that she can't due to being AB Positive. Levi Schmit turns out to be O Neg and serves as donor, earning him the far-more-affectionate nickname of "Bloodbank". A patient in Season 15 has a reaction to a transfusion and, on a second test, turns out to be AB with RH-null. Realistically, only Maggie, who is head of Cardio, is even aware that such a thing exists. There is an entire multi-episode subplot about finding him a blood donor so they can operate. On a trivia note, Meredith's father Thatcher is also AB Negative, Cristina is AB Positive, and Callie is A Positive

For a few seasons, Miranda was called "The Nazi", which officially ended after she operated on an actual white supremacist. George acquired the nickname "007" in Season 1 after nearly killing his first patient. Mark Sloan was briefly called "McSteamy" when he was first introduced. Lexie is called "Little Grey" by some characters. Her Photographic Memory earns her the name "Lexiepedia", and Alex has referred to her as "Encyclopedia Brown" Meredith and Melissa George's short-lived character Sadie called each other "Death" (Meredith) and "Die" (Sadie). Owen calls Cristina and Meredith "the twisted sisters". The Season 9 interns call Meredith "Medusa" and, for a little while, called Bailey "BCB" ("Booty-Call Bailey"). Amelia gets called Amy by her brother, and only her brother. She also gets tagged as "Shepherdess" to distinguish her from her brother. Callie is short for Calliope, which she was exclusively called by Arizona and her dad. And then Penny, which annoyed Arizona for a few seconds. Arizona has some themed nicknames from old friend Nick — he calls her by the name of all the cities and towns in Arizona. As of Season 11, new interns are "chicks and ducks" Levi Schmitt became "Glasses" after his fell off his face into a patient's abdomen.

Grey's Anatomy / int_8391b1c7	type	Artistic License â€“ Law
Grey's Anatomy / int_8391b1c7	comment	Artistic License â€“ Law: This may be typical of many tv dramas, but let's clarify anyway that if any real life doctor would practice his job as the main characters with their too frequente Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! attitude, they would be fired for sure and very probably lose their license and facing criminal charges. Izzie's lie about Danny's deteriorating condition to get him the heart would have landed her in jail for years, and she would never have been allowed to work in a hospital or medical facility again. The chief and her friends justify her actions by saying that she was a young resident who, in the end, only wanted to save a man's life. If the authorities had found out that the case was not reported to the police, the entire hospital would have been investigated, everyone involved in the case would have faced criminal charges, and many would have had to resign at least. Meredith treating an uninsured patient was certainly morally the right thing to do, but unfortunately it would not have been enough to save her medical license. Considering her involvement in the aforementioned heart theft case and many other legally gray decisions, Meredith would never have been able to practice medicine. One episode featured the surgeons lying about the time of the surgery, as the patient's insurance benefits had just lapsed and it wouldn't be covered if it was recorded as being done on the actual date, so they backdated it to the previous day. That's insurance fraud, it's a criminal offense, and the insurance company will find out about it. Not only will the surgeons face charges, but the hospital could very well lose its accreditation. Buying a hospital is not done quickly. Dr. Bailey rightly points out to Cristina and Izzie that them performing an autopsy on someone without the family's consent is illegal, and that they should be arrested. When they figure out what actually killed the man, Bailey lets it slide. In real life, an action like this, regardless of the results, would get all three thrown in prison for a long time. In Season 10, Episode 9, Dr. Torres is sued by a patient alleging medical malpractice that resulted in the amputation of both of his legs. Twice during the episode, characters speak as though they are in a criminal trial, rather than a civil suit. First the patient's lawyer, concluding his case, announces to the judge "The Prosecution rests", rather than "the Plaintiff rests". Then at the end, the jury foreman announces "Not Guilty", rather than "We find in favor of the Defendant." The suit has a downright light speed pace, with it going to court the next day after a settlement offer is rejected. The settlement process would take weeks or months and a malpractice suit could take years before going to court. The lawyer for the plaintiff makes irrelevant, rambling statements like asking for advice on buying a snowboard and speculative statements which are not allowed, and the defense only objects to some, asks questions without knowing the answer, and calls a member of the hospital staff as the first witness, who is clearly hostile, rather than the patient's girlfriend. HIPAA laws appears to work differently in the Grey's universe. In almost every episode a patient or family member asks about someone they are not related to (a friend, co-worker, sometimes a perfect stranger involved in the same accident as with the girl who survived the plane crash). The doctors always either reveal their status or promise to give updates as soon as they know anything, and then follow through with giving said updates. Actual HIPAA laws prohibit giving information about a patient's medical status to somebody they are not related to, unless the patient gives consent.

Grey's Anatomy / int_863fa679	comment	What Happened to the Mouse?: Many characters have disappeared over the course of the showâ€™s decade-and-a-half run. Also crosses into Chuck Cunningham Syndrome. Joe, who runs the bar across from the hospital where everyone hangs out after shift, vanishes with no explanation mid-Season 7. Especially noticeable since the bar is still a setting about a decade after his disappearance. The Season 8 finale involves a plane crash, and the plane's pilot is a character. It takes several episodes of Season 9 before he's even mentioned again. As it turns out, he broke his back in the crash and is paralyzed. This information comes to light when one of the lawyers representing Seattle Grace Mercy West suggests suing a number of people and organizations, including the pilot, for the plane crash. Dr. Stark. When Arizona is rehired, it's with the express understanding that she will report to him, and then we have only a few episodes of them coming into conflict before he disappears and she's right back to running the department with never a word about him. To be fair, his contract was only a year and she was gone for at least a few months, and he's a decent enough guy underneath to stand back and let her charm the department into working hard when none of the staff really like him. He's also a bit heartbroken over April, too, so might have left because of that. Dr. Russell, who has had three scenes since Cristina came back and has told her that she will run the cardiothoracic surgery department in all but name. She certainly does!

Then in the 7th episode Meredith discovers she's three weeks pregnant; she gives birth in the finale.

Grey's Anatomy / int_8d6d9535	type	Artistic License â€“ Medicine
Grey's Anatomy / int_8d6d9535	comment	Artistic License â€“ Medicine: Happens a lot, which is to be expected. It is a drama show first and foremost, after all. Still, examples galore: Lots of times results for many disease are asked from the wrong labs. When Alex, George and Olivia develope syphilis, results are picked up from the Hematology lab.....which studies cells and has NOTHING to do with bacteria. In real life, results for syphilis would be picked up from the microbiology lab. The characters frequently break the biggest rule of the Hippocratic oath: do no harm. Interns, expecially in the first seasons, are shown being treated like nuisances: seniors are shown enjoying being strict and sometimes almost vicious, with the justification that this is the best way to push them to improve. In the show this has a comedic purpose, while in real life medical teachers can be stricts and demanding but they could never treat interns in such a way. If interns report that an attending doesn't teach them or has an hostile attitude, the attending could face severe consequences. The main characters often perform surgeries that are part of different specialties from theirs, and at the same time many specialties don't appear at all. For example, abdominal aneurysms are treated by vascular surgeons, while thyroid/parathyroid/pituitary tumors are treated by endocrinology surgeons. However, even though there are many patients treated for these conditions, the ones to treat them are the main characters, while vascular and endocrine surgeons never appear. In one episode, Cristina and Teddy are assigned to perform an appendectomy, but once they begin, they realize that they have both forgotten how to perform a step in the procedure. The question is, why were two cardiothoracic surgeons supposed to remember how a general surgery procedure is performed in the first place? Even worse, sometimes they deal with patients who are not surgical at all. In one episode, Alex has a patient with c-diff, a young woman, who is treated with a fecal transplant, to restore the bacterial culture in her stomach. Her case would not have been not only treated, but would not have even managed this way. Let's start with the fact that a fecal transplant in such a young and otherwise healthy patient is totally unnecessary (the patients who need it are pluripathological and/or elderly), but apart from that, a patient who comes to the hospital with abdominal pain would have been become a surgical patient only after the problem had been determined. It seems that the moment patients arrive at the hospital, they're immediately visited by surgeons who then determine whether they're surgical patients or not. In real life, this process is usually reversed, especially in front of a patient with a common symptom such as abdominal pain. In the penis fish episode the entire cast react to the patient's swollen testicles as if it were something unique. Hydrocele of the testicles is not uncommon, nobody in urology would have batted an eye at it (and one might wonder why the first action wasn't to call a urologist - which is a surgical specialty, too). They also treat the possibility of the patient getting septic as it being likely that he might die. Septic shock is a very serious condition, but a urosepsis is typically not. Some patients don't even get a fever, and in almost all cases it can be treated with fluids, oxygen and antibiotics. It shouldn't be treated lightly, but it's not practically a death sentence. Interns don't participate in the OR on a regular basis, and when they do, they observe. They certainly don't get to do as much as Meredith and her friends. Interns focus mainly on learning the floor work. General, ortho, neuro, cardio, ped, plastic and OB are separate sub-specialitles that must be choose before starting specialization and, once chosen, the interns will specialize in them only, without working on other sub-specialities. General surgery residents don't rotate on those services routinely, or specialize in those fields. Doctors don't work on just the one patient per shift. The protagonists are almost always all-rounders in their field, able to perform any kind of surgery as long as it falls within their specialty, and do it better than anyone else because they are the best surgeons in the world. In real life, the amount of knowledge and experience needed to be able to do it is simply too much, therefore it would be impossible for even a world-class surgeon to accomplish such a feat. One can only be the best at certain surgical techniques, at operating on certain organs or groups of organs, and/or at treating certain diseases, but nothing more. In the episode where Meredith has appendicitis she is given a dose of Morphine and becomes stoned. Morphine, especially in the dose she was given, does not have that effect. CPR and defibrillation. CPR is portrayed as a procedure that returns patients to the condition they were in before coding. In reality, CPR is a violent procedure with significant risk of breaking the patient's ribs. People who are elderly and/or have several underlying diseases are already unlikely to survive and, those who do survive, have a high chance that their brain function may be severely impaired. In one episode of the show there is an elderly lady who goes into cardiac arrest over and over again, each time being easily resuscitated with CPR and defibrillation, never with adverse effects. The likelihood of this happening in real life is... slim. It is also common on the show for doctors to defibrillate patients several times in succession, without performing CPR between each time. It is necessary to perform CPR between defibrillations, otherwise it does not work. Many times, defibrillation is used on asystolic patients, with flat EKG. Defibrillation is used only in cases of fibrillation (doesn't the name suggest it?), i.e., when the heart, due to defective electrical activity, beats but in a disorganized and therefore nonfunctional way. The EKG of a fibrillating heart is not flat. Defibrillation interrupts this wrong electrical activity so the heart, that is functional, could restart with a correct and organized one. An asystolic heart, i.e., one that has no electrical activity, and therefore does not beat at all and does have a flat line on the EKG, is not shockable; as long as there's no electrical activity, defibrillation is useless and what is needed is CPR! A surgeon can't randomly decide to pick up shifts in OB and deliver babies for a few weeks. That is an entirely different specialty, and it makes as much sense as an OB resident randomly deciding to operate for a while. On a related note, nurses can be specialized as well, and those that are tend to not just head off to another specialty willy-nilly. Nurse Rose, for instance, has spent time specializing as an OR nurse and her switching to peds from one day to the next makes about as much sense as if Meredith had decided to switch to dermatology. Medical trials are always double blind, meaning that the people running the trial don't know which patients receive the medication and which patients receive the placebo. This is to prevent things like what happens at the end of season seven with the Alzheimer's trial. First and foremost though, it is to ensure that the medical staff treat all patients the same way and that their bias isn't subconsciously affecting patient care. Various are the cases in which a patient is declared to have healed from cancer after one surgery or, like the case of Izzie, after no more than one year of treatment. To be declared cancer-free a patient needs to wait at least five years in which he must show no signs or symptoms of illness. Dr. Castello, who declared how there was no time for a CT scan and by doing so killed Derek, should have been reviewed by the medical board after Derek died. CT scan of the head IS the protocol internationally recognized for anyone who may have suffered a concussion and who arrives in the ER with an alterated state of consciousness, because in these cases one of the first things that must be ruled out before going further with any treatment is head trauma. In real life, with this outcome, Meredith would have been in the right to sue the hospital. It's quite strange she didn't do anything and waited five years to accuse him of incompetence. If you pay attention during the OR scenes when the surgeons are gloving up, you'll see them put a glove on one hand...then use their bare, ungloved hand to adjust the fit of the glove. It doesn't matter how much you wash your hands, touching a glove with a bare hand contaminates it. The episode where Izzie is trying to save a deer that's been hit by a car is ridiculous to the point of insanity. She's in the parking lot with a group of interns, there's patients filling up the ER, she's using medical supplies and a defibrillator on a wild animal (the hospital is going to have to eat those costs as there's no one to bill), and no one in the hospital knows where she is. This episode should have ended with her either being fired or ordered to join George in doing her entire internship year over again. Operating rooms are consistently shown as being dark and shadowed, with the only light being a focused beam directly on the patient's surgical site. Anyone who's worked in an operating room will tell you that they are extremely well-lit. Watch any operating room scene, and there are always plenty of people whose only job seems to be to stand there and watch. Period. No wonder the hospital is always having money problems, they're wasting millions of dollars annually paying salaries to people who do absolutely nothing. In reality, everyone in an operating room has a job to do, and anyone merely watching can do it from the observation room located above. Several episodes featuring a visiting surgeon who likes to have music playing and OR personnel dancing to it. Complete and total nonsense to the point of insanity. No surgeon is going to do this, no Chief of Surgery is going to allow it, no self-respecting nurse or technician is going to go along, and if a mistake occurred during surgery while people are dancing instead of doing their jobs, the malpractice lawsuit would bankrupt the hospital. While playing music is not unheard of, dancing to it is incredibly dangerous. Even worse, a Real Life case of this occurred where a surgeon basically did this, while also treating her unconscious patients as props and filming it. She was sent to prison.

Then it turns out that the patient is really in for palliative care and was never likely to undergo the surgery as her condition was terminal. In the first episode of Season 5, Cristina loses it over Meredith constantly coming to her with relationship issues, and tells her off. Immediately after, she slips and falls. Oh, and is then struck by a falling icicle.

Bailey said that as an intern, she was the only female in her class. However, a flashback to her intern year in "The Time Warp" shows that she was in a totally gender-even class. It's also a key point of the season 4 fight over Chief Resident that Bailey, Callie, and Sadie Heron were all in the same intern class.

Grey's Anatomy / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: In the first episode of season 5, Meredith has nightmares about Derek dying in a car accident. They come true near the end of season 11. In the same episode, Meredith asks Zola if she knows what happens when surgeons are late. "People die". The neurosurgeon that could have saved Derek's life was over an hour late and by then he was already brain-dead. In the season 11 episode where Derek is AWOL and the plane crashed in Seattle, Meredith is understandably distressed. As she's distracted, Bailey makes a deal with her that she can call Derek and be scared as much as she wants at 5 o'clock. This means that the tension leading up to 5pm is building throughout the episode with others asking what happens at 5. 5 o'clock is the time that Mark was taken off life support and died after the plane crash in season 9, foreshadowing that when it comes to 5, Derek will die. At 5, as Meredith picks up her phone, police officers arrive at her door. Derek is brain dead. The first thing we learn about Arizona beyond her being a human rainbow is that she doesn't trust planes and as a kid had nightmares about being in a plane crash. Come season 8...

Grey's Anatomy / int_ad1db87c	comment	Oh, Crap!: This show is littered with these. You can almost count on several per episode, usually when a patient unexpectedly takes turn for the worst. One that stands out is when a woman who'd run over her ex-husband is brought in. She claims she fainted behind the wheel and sticks to her story, with multiple tests being ordered to find out what caused her to faint. Later, when she's in her ex-husbands' hospital room (he's in a coma) she tells Meredith and Lexie that her husband left her for another woman, and when she saw him in a laundromat she'd deliberately rammed her car through the display window and hit him. Seeing Meredith's and Lexie's stunned expressions, she asks why they're so shocked, as she's certain many patients tell them of crimes they committed under the protection of "doctor/patient privilege". Meredith stammers out that that only applies to lawyers. The woman immediately panics and insists they have to keep her secret. Her next scene is of her being questioned by the police. This is Truth in Television, if doctors know or suspect a crime has occurred they're obligated to inform the police. This is why the law requires that all gunshot wounds have to be reported to the police.

The season 14 intake: All the interns: Levi, Sam, Casey, Taryn, and the other two. Leads to the realization that Andrew DeLuca could have been bi if whoever they cast as Sam was male (they weren't, Sam was made short for Samantha); also Casey is (and is played by) a trans man (Alex Blue Davis) which makes this practice of the shows super for representation. The same if presumably done for the spin-offs, with character names like Dell (Private Practice, male), Andy and Vic (Station 19, female).

Grey's Anatomy / int_c02a3bf2	comment	Imperiled in Pregnancy: A recurring element of the show's medical drama, though often the mothers die, though the babies survive. However, there have been numerous cases where both die, including one incident that led to Ben almost getting fired. An example would be Meredith, who falls down a staircase while heavily pregnant and later went into DIC after giving birth to her son Bailey; luckily, she survived. Another example would be Callie and Arizona in a car crash in season 7, while the former is only about six months pregnant; as in the case of Meredith, she and the baby (Sofia) survive, though spends weeks in the hospital recovering. It's acknowledged in season 14 when Arizona and Carina begin a study into maternal mortality and drop some anvils on how the US has an improbably high rate, especially when compared with the rest of the developed world.

The doctor working on him doesn't even think to notify the police, and the scene is pretty much played for laughs.

Alex points out to the guy that, regardless of whether the girl hit first, the fact that the guy hit too is going to follow him forever. Via this blackmail he manages to dissuade the guy from pressing charges... Which Derek immediately calls him on.

Unknown to both him and Bailey, Reed was in fact the first person to die when the shooting started. Situational: The shooter, Gary Clark, brought along a flask filled with vodka, just in case he needed some "liquid courage"; leaving some ammunition behind instead. As he explains: Pointed out by several characters regarding their profession. Derek is the best neurosurgeon, who died of a brain bleed; Amelia is also the best neurosurgeon, whose son was born without a brain, as well as being an addict, working in a place full of drugs; Arizona was a pediatric surgeon who didn't want kids, and she was married to an orthopedic surgeon but was miles from civilization when she injured her leg, resulting in infection and amputation, and is a fetal surgeon whose fetus never had a heartbeat; Addison is an OB/GYN who is infertile; George joined the army and got killed as a result of this but in Seattle when going to say bye to his mom before being deployed; Owen is a trauma surgeon with horrible PTSD.

Grey's Anatomy / int_c6079371	comment	Artistic License â€“ Awards: The role of the Harper Avery Award. In the real world, there are many different types of awards for various aspects of service in medicine and research. In the world of the show, as soon as the Harper Avery Award is introduced, it as treated as the only award that has any meaning, and practically the only prize that anyone is ever competing for. Potential to win it is used to evaluate the worth of all kinds of diverse projects, and surgeons in different specialties argue over it as if it is the main benchmark of both their respective careers. Even very prestigious awards in the real world aren't that all or nothing, and specialties matter. Cristina's experience with being nominated. She receives a phone call that she is a finalist, flies to Boston for the ceremony, and loses out to someone else, only to find out through back channels later that she actually secured the votes to win but was excluded due to her connections to the Harper Avery Foundation. In the real world, the terms of an award like that would have transparently prevented her from ever being nominated due to her close connections with the foundation giving it and the appearance of favoritism. Cristina would have known from reading the rules that she was never eligible, and would not have advanced as far as the finalist stage still under the impression that she might win. As mentioned above, though, in the real world being ineligible for one award wouldn't be seen as the massive career hit it is in a show where seemingly only one important award exists.

Izzie's cancer subplot also had this. It sheds new light on Izzie's hallucinations of Denny in Season 5, which were ruled symptomatic of the cancer spreading to her brain. Nothing is confirmed either way, and it's really up to viewer personal preference whether or not the afterlife/ghosts exist in this show's universe or not. When April is hypothermic late in Season 14, Meredith makes a point of asking about this. April didn't see anything.

Grey's Anatomy / int_ce1c73e2	type	Just Plane Wrong
Grey's Anatomy / int_ce1c73e2	comment	Just Plane Wrong: The plane crash at the end of Season 8 was apparently due to engine failure. While bad, this would not cause the jet to fall out of the sky, especially since it has two engines. Short of the plane falling apart at altitude (which would have killed everyone), the pilot would have had plenty of time to call Mayday and figure out how best to fly on one engine. Also, the emergency beacon is far tougher and would have survived, and the plane losing altitude and disappearing from radar would have been noticed. In the following season the investigation of the plane crash is implied to only exist because the victims didn't settle with the airline, and Derek tells them to push forward because when doctors make mistakes we talk about them and self-police, which wont happen if they don't sue. In reality, if a plane crashes about 12 government agencies from around the world all investigate every single nut and bolt on a plane to determine what happened. The real irony here is that Derek's point would be much better made if it was the reverse: if a doctor makes a mistake theres nothing garunteeing introspection.

When Dr. Webber still wants to do it his way, saying it would be good for the patients, the guy says the patients don't matter. He tries to Verbal Backspace, but the reason he was there in the first place was not to help the patients. At a New Year's Party, Maggie suggests they leave early:

When Hann arrives, she immediately questions Cristina's work, pointing out the alleged tecnical mistakes she made. Cristina is quick to explain why she did them and why they were necessary, but when Hann still disagrees and bluntly orders her to move to replace her, Cristina yells at her to shut up and let her work. In the very first episode of Season 5, Cristina snaps at Meredith after coming to her one too many times with relationship woes: After the plane crash, Cristina yells at Arizona (who has been screaming in agony for several minutes) to shut up.

Grey's Anatomy / int_d33456e7	comment	Improbable Age: The actors playing Meredith, Alex, George and Cristina were all somewhat older than the average intern in the first season (by nearly a decade in Ellen Pompeo's case). Not impossible by any means but a little improbable. Averted by Izzie - Katherine Heigl actually was twenty-six when the show started. Cristina has a PhD as well as an MD so she would be older than the average intern since she has four to six (depending on a MA and what program she did) more years of school. It's also outright stated that Meredith didn't necessarily take her education all that seriously until her mother was diagnosed, so it's easy to think that she took longer than the standard four years to finish her undergrad or that she didn't go straight from undergrad to med school... or even straight from high school to college, for that matter. It's noted in the pilot script that Meredith is 32, which means she started med school around 28, which would support this idea. And, of course, the show uses a mild version of Webcomic Time, so any actors who were an appropriate age when hired will eventually outgrow their characters.

Alex gets one after telling the chief that Meredith was tampering with the Alzheimer's trial, which gets her (temporarily) fired. What she did was illegal and ruined her husband's credibility, though he's seen as being more in the wrong because she was trying to help a friend and he told on her out of spite and to ruin her chances of becoming Chief Resident.

Alex gives one to Meredith and Cristina in Season 9: the plane crash lawsuit, followed by their resignations, are threatening to drag the hospital under.

She visited her dad a few times before meeting his daughters, apparently just never bumping into them or seeing photos, and was there for Maggie's birth but (being all of five), confused the birth with her mother's suicide attempt. So that Maggie could dramatically reveal it when she gets hired as Cristina's replacement and give Meredith the realization that Maggie's father is Richard Webber, which neither of them know. It's surprising that Ellis didn't reveal all due to Alzheimer's On that note, her father Thatcher didn't know about Maggie until Meredith told him the day he died. Arizona picks up a girl at Joe's and takes her home, and it looks like it could be a successful one night stand for her to get over Eliza and finally uncomplicate her love life... until her long-time roommate and good friend, Andrew, comes home and scurries past — but the girl notices him and calls his name. She reveals that he is her little brother, something you would imagine Andrew would have probably mentioned to Arizona (since they have lived together for a few years and he testified for her at her daughter's custody hearing), or if not to have at least had a photo around that Arizona would have recognized.

Even the original shell from a WWII bazooka didn't have that kind of power and wasn't intended to. It was designed to penetrate a tank's armor, then once inside the explosive charge would kill the tank crew with shrapnel, not turn them to mist. And if the explosion was powerful enough to completely vaporize three men (and their body armor), it would have also destroyed a large section of the hospital floor and killed Meredith outright, as she was standing less than 20 feet away.

The Seattle Grace interns later note the times they've fallen asleep at bad times. When Meredith, Alex, Izzie, and Cristina become residents, one of their rules for their new interns is "sleep whenever you can, and if I'm sleeping, don't wake me unless a patient is actually dying" After the hospital shooting, Lexie suffers from this to the point of a mental breakdown that lands her in the Psych ward. A full fifty hours of sleep cures her. As Dr. Webber delivers his welcome speech to the interns in "Time Stops", Ben comments that they actually look well-rested. Stephanie collapses 13 hours into Nicole Herman's surgery, and during Meredith's record-setting 27-hour surgery, an intern passes out 18 hours in.

Grey's Anatomy / int_e5e6640b	comment	Flanderization: As with most long running shows, this trope pops up from time to time. Though one stand-out example is Dr. Sidney Heron, who first appears in season two as the interns' temporary resident during Bailey's maternity leave. In her first two episodes she is extremely bubbly and peppy, having the motto "healing with love", and more or less treating the interns like she's their kindergarden teacher. However, she is also shown as being a very intelligent and capable surgeon, who has a lot of substance beneath the seemingly naÃ¯ve and infantile surface. But by her third appearance, those traits seem to have mostly vanished, leaving only the peppy kindergarden teacher persona.

With Cristina's departure in Season 10 and Arizona in Season 14, Meredith is the only one of the group still on the show. In a looser sense, every batch of interns loses members over the years to fatalities, firings, and departing for other hospitals. With Alex's departure in mid- Season 16, Meredith is the last of the original five interns. Lexie's entire class was killed, fired, or forgotten, and Jo and Deluca are last man standing in their respective classes. Even the latest class has lost half its number.

In season 5 Izzie discovers she has cancer but doesn't want help because she's too scared to face it. In season 6 Owen suffers from PTSD but needs to see how Cristina is scared of him after he almost choked her to understand how he needs help. In season 9 Derek can't use his right hand anymore and when Callie and Meredith explain to him how he can be cured, at the beginning he doesn't believe them. Arizona suffers from phantom limb and confesses to Owen that she cannot bear she's suffering from something that doesn't exist. In season 10 Richard at the beginning refuses treatment and wants to be let die even though everyone has high hopes for his recover. Bailey begins to show symptoms of OCD and when she's forced to face it she refuses to accept it. In season 15 Jo is traumatized by her meeting with her biological mother and refuses help from everyone, keeping to claim that she's fine while it's clear that she's not.

A twofer with Derek and Meredith's son Derek Bailey Shepherd, helpfully lampshaded by Cristina. In season 14, Andrew DeLuca is revealed to have a sister (Arizona's romantic interest) called Carina — also the name of Eliza's (Arizona's ex) twin sister. For the medical families they have ways of differentiating: Dr. Shepherd (Derek) and "the other" Dr. Shepherd (Amelia), as well as Dr. Ellis Grey, Dr. Grey (Meredith), and Little Grey (Lexie). Jo Wilson and Joe the Bartender, though Joe disappeared a season and a half before Jo showed up. Andrew DeLuca and Andy Herrera, both actually called "Andrea" (pronounced the fancy Italian way), even though one is an Italian male and the other an Hispanic female. A line in "Out of Nowhere" informs us that there are two nurses named Taylor. In Season 15 there are now two Doctor Karevs and thus two Mrs. Karevs. Leads to a mixup when Alex's mother comes to visit him and an intern just reffers to to her as "Mrs Karev".

Grey's Anatomy / int_fb25bc5f	comment	Code Emergency: Code Blue, signalling a patient having a heart attack, gets called multiple times a season. Code Black, signalling a bomb on the premises, is called in "It's the End of the World" & "(As We Know It)" after a patient is brought in with a live bazooka round in his chest. Code Silver, an active shooter, occurs in the Season 6 finale. Code Pink, a missing child, is called in "There's A Fine, Fine Line". Trapped by the lockdown, Ben preforms a crash C-section that kills both mother and child, prompting a "Rashomon"-Style investigation.

Grey's Anatomy / int_fb4c41b4	type	"Friends" Rent Control
Grey's Anatomy / int_fb4c41b4	comment	"Friends" Rent Control: Averted. Meredith's house is a large three-bedroom, justified as being her mother's house before Ellis got Alzheimer's and went to the nursing home. As the only rent-free housing available, it has housed most of the cast at some point. Burke has a quite nice apartment that Cristina later takes over, but then he make $2 million a year. Lexie and George briefly get a place together, but it's roach-infested and not very nice. Lexie only manages to spruce the place up by stealing linens from the hospital.

At one point Addison even comes to Meredith's defense when she is having trouble with an angry patient, much to Meredith's surprise.

It's made worse when Arizona tells Alex that she wishes it was him who was on the plane when it crashed, because in her own words, she "kept thinking about her wife and baby, and how he had no one." Owen, after he put his sister on a helicopter and it crashed and she died but didn't actually, and after he put his wife and friends on a plane and it crashed and two died, one lost a leg, one lost motor control, one suffered massive PTSD and none of them wanted to get on a plane again. Oh, Owen. Ross, after he has Heather look for Webber rather than do so himself. Heather dies of her injuries after being shocked and Ross starts having a breakdown over it.

First she goes on a rant about people shouldn't be caretakers for those with Alzheimer's if they can't handle it...in front of Richard Webber. Then she starts complaining about the horrible experience of her flight sitting on the ramp for four hours and then being cancelled...on the same day a plane crash gives Mer and Arizona traumatic flashbacks. Alex and April set her straight.

Aside from that, her drowning during the ferry incident is treated as being somehow her fault because she "gave up". Apparently being unable to tread water indefinitely in cold water makes you suicidal.
