Washington - Just A Small Village?

"Welcome to Washington!" (photo from flicr.com)

Is Washington just a small village in a countryside? Absolutely no, you would answer. You'd say that Washington is one of the largest cities in the United States and has more than six million inhabitants. I also used to think so until I began to watch "Grey's Anatomy". As more I watch, as more I become convinced that Washington is nothing more than a miserable place with a pair of houses and couple of hundreds of people living in there. Probably there is also two little food shops, one McDonald and one post office. Why do I think so? This is my conclusion from the fact that there is only one pub in Washington as it is seen in "Grey's Anatomy" series. Every evening all the doctors of Seattle Grace Hospital go to the same tavern and meet each other and I can't imagine other reason why should they do that than an absolutely lack of other cafes or pubs. The nearest next pub, credibly, is some fifty miles away and it would be too complicated to move so far. Oh, what a terrible life in such a small village...

Unbelievable Gossiping While The Brain Is Open

Every time I see Grey's Anatomy surgeons gossiping during an operation my heart starts booming, because I am afraid that every second there can happen a disaster. So it was yesterday when Mark Sloan and Derek Shepherd, with scalpels in their hands and an opened brain in front of them, were discussing their private problems as usual. I was really angry with them.
Of course, I understand that an operation is nothing special for experienced doctors - as professionals they do this every day. But I don't believe this kind of behavior is true in real life. You can be the most professional surgeon in the world, but it doesn't cancel the necessity to concentrate on your work.

Cristina Yang - Asians Versus "Western Race"

First time I saw Cristina Yang I contemplated that she is Chinese. But that's not true. She is of Korean descent furthermore not only in fiction but also in her real life. Sandra Oh who portrays Cristina was born in Canada but her parents are Korrean immigrants.

Anyway, she is of Asian origin. And that's the reason why she very differs from other actors of Grey's Anatomy. Some people say she's ugly, some other call her "Asian beauty" but clear is one thing - she attracts an attention with her appearance because she is not of "Western race". Spectators, especially from countries where Asians are not still widespread, instinctively feel her as a "stranger" even in case with their minds they strive to think "we are all people, no matter of our color of skin and shape of our eyes". But that's the matter why it is so interesting to see Sandra in this role.

I Am Afraid Of Owen Hunt

"Don't be afraid. I'm working with Iroquoian methods," says Owen Hunt.  (photo:tvfanatic.com)

Please, Guard, save me from Owen Hunt! I would never wish me to be his patient. His brutal methods and absolutely lack of communication skills is something horrible....If I were the Chief of surgery, I would have thrown him out of hospital. OK, I understand, he is a clever doctor with original ideas. But the medicine is not only about cutting, veering, operating and transfusing blood. It is firstly about people! And an attitude is not an appendant of treatment, it's a very basic.
No, I don't want him to be my doctor. I'd better let a young, unexperienced intern to treat me instead of him.

The Secret Of The Hair Colour Of Derek

It turns out that Eric William Dane (Mark Sloan) is two years older than Justin W. Chambers (Alex Karev). Surprisingly, isn't it? Dane was born in 1972 but Chambers - in year 1970. Probably Mark's Sloan's hoary hair is the reason what maks look him older as he is. How has Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsy) managed to save his dark black hair being four years older than his friend and "wife thief" Dane (born in 1966) Is the answer genetics? Or does he colour his hair? How do you think?

When Does Mark Sloan Train His Breast Muscles?

Hi!

Have you also wondered why surgeon Mark Sloan has never been shown doing

Hard. Mark Sloan trains his body.

gymnastics in a fitness club? Because his body looks like he is sweating in a gym two hours per day. But how can he manage it if all the day round he's busy in the Seattle Grace Hospital?

And why does chief Richard Webber, being responsible for so large working team, do waste the most of his time dealing with just nine or ten of them? When does he do his basic job if all the day we see him gossiping with Meredith Grey, scolding on George O.Mally, instructing Derek Shepherd and rambling from a chamber to chamber?

If you also are a fan of Grey's Anatomy as am I and have ever thought about such strange things then you will like my blog. I will regularly write here what funny things have I noticed in Grey's Anatomy. Let's analyze, laugh and wonder together! :)
