Grey's Anatomy.a tv show i have been addicted to, ever since Josh (a student of mine) introduced it to me and lent his step mom's cd containing the show's season 1 and 2.for three days ,i watched the series ..only allowing breaks and pauses for food,water,bath..and sleep- and only because my eyes were tired and strained. it was the longest video marathon i ever did..hence, an addiction to the show. it didn't even stop there. after the last episode of season 2, i started waiting for hours- spending time and electricity, downloading season 3..i must admit..i fell in a trance, the world outside just suddenly stopped for a tv show..i cried,laughed a lot,felt loss,felt every pain and joy,surprised and amazed of its twists and turns..in short..i related with it intensely..it reminded me of my past, made me in tune with my present, and gave me clues on how to live my future. its script, is beautifully written . and i must say, it does have a sense of realism - of which Gio (a friend who is now an intern at the PGH) begs to disagree. well maybe not what actually happens on the hospital floors and operating tables, but with how people react and respond on life's challenges. may it be reacting or responding to love earned or love lost, to making or breaking a career, to keeping or lossing friends, to accepting or denying truths, to holding or letting go of control, to attachments or detachments, to the call of flesh or the spirit, to sanity or madness..all of what being humane is about. i specially like how it presents "An experience, example, or observation that imparts beneficial new knowledge or wisdom" -lessons in life,such as the high and lows of adolescence, the idea of God, religion, hypocricy..et. al..and the soundtracks ..of course..music makes it more dramatic, right!....so - i am a certified fanatic of the tv series..more than i am with 24 or sex and the city or prison break.
