Grey’s Anatomy TV Show is a drama centered on the personal and professional lives of five surgical interns and their supervisors. After ER, several hospital dramas surfaced such as House and Scrubs that tried to capture viewers. Grey’s Anatomy places itself back into the “old-school” drama such as General Hospital with a mix of ER theatrics.
