Grey's Anatomy 19th Season Review Poem

by Betty Jo Tucker — Read all 96 poems by Betty Jo Tucker

I finished the 19th Season of Grey's Anatomy. Mixed feelings resulted as explained in the poem below. (Dedicated to Billie Jo Arguello)

Wednesday, July 19, 2023


Poem Artwork

 

What Went Wrong?

 

A longstanding Grey’s fan I am

Yet now I’m in an awful jam.

Grey’s Anatomy started strong.

But later many things went wrong.

 

Repetitive wedding messes,

although we love those bride dresses.

And killing off dear characters

caused many fans to seek others.

 

Plus, new intern groups got weaker

On that, I hate to be speaker. 

Catastrophes came onto stage

leaving a lot of viewers rage   

 

But humanity ruled the roost.

And diversity got a boost.

The actors did their very best.

Now is the time for them to rest.   

 

When will Season 20 appear?

Maybe on Hulu and next year.

 

*****

I left medical shows a long time ago. How many medical emergencies can you have before you start repeating. I started watching one last year about an immigrant doctor from the Philippines via Cambodia who brought her son to the United States illegally to save him from a genetic disorder. She was the cleaning lady for a Las Vegas mobster. Basically, disposing of the unfortunate dead. But the series ended nicely after two or three seasons. I can see why Grey's Anatomy became repetitive and lost its edge after so many years.

I much prefer dramas that come to legitimate conclusions rather than trying to milk all they can from initial good fortune, by forcing writers to come up with new twists and stories to produce after the spark is gone.

Your poems about your reviews are always great to read for the way they read the show was all about.

I haven't thought about this show for years. My wife and I watched the first few seasons. But we stopped shortly after Denny Duquette died after proposing to Izzie. We could not get back into it after that. I understand you having mixed feelings. I give you credit though for staying with it. Another show that's had a long life is Midsomer Murders. 23 seasons. Thanks for sharing, Betty Jo. Hope you're well. r
