The Pitt Proves Why Grey’s Anatomy Should’ve Ended 10 Years Ago

I’ve been watching “Grey’s Anatomy” since it premiered in 2005. For better and definitely for worse, it’s the longest relationship of my life to date. Despite the diminishing returns each season has produced over the last several years, I was happy to see so much chatter about “Grey’s Anatomy” on my social media timelines recently. Granted, it was for a terribly sad reason — namely, the death of one of the show’s stars and emotional touchstones, Eric Dane, who was diagnosed with Als just 10 months before he passed away. Even under genuinely gutting circumstances, it was strangely comforting to see people reappraising some of the best episodes of Shonda Rhimes’ landmark medical show.
