I am going
to offend so many hardcore fans. I was one of them. In fact, I still believe
that this is one of the best shows of all time. It offers you every human
emotion there is, great soundtrack and fully shaped characters from the very
beginning. It absolutely grabs you with the first episode. Many people dislike
it without even watching it because of the “medical stuff”, it’s just boring,
they say. Let me tell you, I had the same mind set when I started but, oh my
God, how wrong was I.
As I said, the
characters are just on point. Doesn’t matter if you love them or hate them, you
still appreciate how alive and believable they are. How not to fall in love
with competitive and witty Christina, or charming and lovely Izzie, or wise and
strong Meredith? You get drawn into their life, work problems, love misfortunes
and dramas. The humor is subtle but hilarious and not to mention the sad times.
If you ever cry at films or series, be prepared, almost every episode is just
heart-breaking. The touching events just beautifully coincide with the amazing
soundtrack. But Shonda (the creator of the show) is famous for killing of her
characters. At first it was fine, in the mood of the show and made you care even
more. But soon enough, it all stated to be just too much for my taste. She just
kept trying to come up with ways of killing people and torturing them, it is
kind of scary how creative she got.
And here is a
message directly to her. Please, stop. Just for a moment remember all the
beautiful characters that you created and then brutally killed off. Why? Why not
just stop here and leave it? Derek dying wouldn’t be the best ending, I admit
it. I would have loved to see them live happily ever after in their perfect house with their beautiful children. But this is Grey’s Anatomy and
deep down inside me I knew I couldn’t expect that. So when he died I was so
sure she would end it. It would have been appropriate – showing us once again
that life is hard on you, that nothing turns out as you expect it, that
there are so many women out there in the world like Meredith, struggling every
day of their life. And that is perfect. But no, we had to painfully watch how
no one seemingly cared that he died. And to continue watching with so few
original characters left? It is almost as if you don’t love and respect your
fans, Shonda, because if you did you would have come up with a proper goodbye.
Enough said.
