I really like to Netflix entire seasons of television shows so I can watch without waiting. And I don't have to commit to a show so when it's screwed up by the networks and gone before I know it, I won't have wasted my time. Even without Netflix, I record everything I watch. But Netflix is a very good thing.
That being said, I did not watch Grey's Anatomy from the beginning but now I am speeding through season 2. I really like the medical stuff and most of the relationships and the characters but there are some things that really annoy me. Dr Sheperd aka Dr McDreamy is gorgeous, no doubt, but is a jerk. He picks up a girl in a bar (Meredith) and then finds out she is an intern who will be virtually working for him. Instead of stopping things, he continues the affair even though Meredith faces extra scrutiny from her fellow interns and bosses when they think she'll get special treatment. Then it turns out he's married to Addison. Addison cheated on him and they are separated but it turns out he did not even mention her to Meredith. She shows up at the end of season 1. Meredith is naturally shocked and hurt.
Fast forward (in Netflix-land) to season 2. Addison has asked McDreamy for another chance. He is torn. Addison hurt him but they have history. Should he try again with with his wife of 11 years or go after Meredith? In true 'My Fair Lady' fashion, he decides to have it all his way. He decides to stay with Addison to work on his marriage but doesn't put his heart into it. He talks her into giving up her practice in New York and moving to Seattle so they can work on things. She gives, he takes. Then he moons over Meredith the entire time. He won't tell Addison he doesn't love her but won't let Meredith move on with her life. And Meredith...OMG...what a whiny, selfish bitch. She can't walk away either...she sleeps with everyone along the way all the while bemoaning that she'll be miserable for the rest of her life without McDreamy. She has good friends that love her, a good career and all kinds of opportunity yet without McDreamy her life is over and she's gonna whine into infinity. Bitch.
There are now 4 seasons in the books and is this gonna happen for 2 more years? It was time to move on in season 2.
