Grey’s Anatomy – Season Two still packs plenty of medical emergencies, romantic love triangles, and comedy to make the second season worth watching. There were points tin the season and episodes that made you think "Huh?" and "Why?" but overall it is worth picking up Grey’s Anatomy is a great blend of comedy and drama. The first season had just the right mixture of good storytelling and strong performances from its cast. It was easily one of the best debut shows of the year. With some weaker moments, season two does falter a bit, but not enough to lose the show’s audience or disappoint fans. The series’ strength continues to be its ensemble cast and the quirky characters they create. Although the show’s main character is Meredith Grey, it is the side characters George, Cristina, and Izzie (loved her in Rosewell!) that make the series really work. Not to mention the doctors they work with – including the domineering Dr. Bailey; the surgeon with a God complex Dr. Burke; the chief who knows everything that happens in his hospital Dr. Webber; and McDreamy Dr. Derek Shepherd. Season two also turned up the heat a bit with Meredith having to deal with the return of McDreamy’s wife and the aftermath of their relationship; Izzie falling for a patient (where the show starts to jump the shark in my opinion); George dealing with his feeling for Meredith and possibly finding a new love; and Cristina trying to balance work and life with Dr. Burke. While the second season did lose some of the momentum of the debut season, the show continues to be enjoyable thanks to its cast. All of the actors are excellent in the show, and their characters continue to be the main reason to watch. I would recommend the season two set to anyone who enjoyed the series on television.Read full review
This is a fantastic series about a group of first year interns in a Seattle hospital. For the dvd Four of the episodes get an extended treatment, the rest are as you saw them the first time. I was sad that more of the actors didn’t do their turn on the commentary. The writers and producers are there for the episodes and for one episode "The Doctors are In," the actors answer fan questions. Grey's Anatomy: Season Two, which follows the personal and professional lives of five surgical interns at fictional Seattle Grace hospital, includes 27 episodes spread over six discs. Disc One • "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" Meredith must learn to work with Derek's wife, renowned OB/GYN and pediatric surgeon Dr. Addison Shepherd. • "Enough is Enough" An abusive father needs a new liver, and a man swallows 10 Judy doll heads. Meredith begins to respect Addison in spite of herself. • "Make Me Lose Control" Meredith's work life grows even more complicated when her Alzheimer's-stricken mother, Dr. Ellis Grey, is admitted to Seattle Grace. • "Deny, Deny, Deny" While Dr. Ellis Grey keeps the staff running in circles, Cristina, with help from her mother, tries to recover from losing her baby. • "Bring the Pain" Meredith begins to learn more about her mother's past, and George and Alex must perform open-heart surgery on a patient while stuck in an elevator. Disc Two • "Into You Like a Train" A train wreck inundates Seattle Grace with patients. • "Something to Talk About" Alex convinces a sheltered young patient to take control of her life. Meanwhile, a male patient creates a media frenzy by claiming to be pregnant. • "Let It Be" The entire staff is at odds with each other when two friends of Derek and Addison fly in from New York to discuss a radical surgery. A man is less than happy after surviving a fall from a five-story building. • "Thanks for the Memories" Everyone but Izzie has something to be thankful for when Thanksgiving comes to Seattle Grace.

Simply put, Grey's Anatomy Season 2 was a highly addictive and entertaining drama about a group of medical interns. Set in a fictitious Seattle Grace Hospital, the life of Meredith Grey is always a struggle between relationship issues, friendships and the medical events that take place on the surgical floor. Even though these cut-throat interns seem all about work, the show always shares some insight into life's tough situations, ranging from life/death situations to relational issues. While the complex web of relationships between the surgical interns is interesting, the world of Meredith Grey points out the importance of being human, even in the most inhumane situations. Meredith Grey, lovable O'Malley, hot Stevens, workaholic Yang, tough Bailey, respectable Burke, charming Shepard and his devilish wife all come together to create a plethora of thrilling problems and solutions in the the medical world in which they call life.Read full review
Posted by CK-Auctions I didn't want to like Grey's Anatomy, I really and truly didn't. I felt like I'd fought it off successfully, deflected its charms in its abbreviated first season, a handful of episodes (a mere nine) that didn't make too much of an impact – but it came back for a second, longer season, one with a leisurely time frame in which to explore the tangled loves and lives of the quirky, often bitingly sarcastic characters created by Shonda Rhimes (whom I'm just now forgiving for writing Britney Spears' ill-fated cinematic bomb Crossroads). I could hold out – I still won't admit to fully embracing this guilty Sunday (as of Sept. 21, Thursday) night pleasure, but I don't run screaming as soon it comes on either; Grey's Anatomy isn't life-changing television, but you could definitely do worse with an hour of your time. Admittedly, Ellen Pompeo is a slight choice with which to anchor a sudsy drama such as this, but somehow, it works – as the lovelorn Dr. Meredith Grey, Pompeo functions as the quiet eye of the hurricane, calmly narrating her winsomely cynical world views as life twists and turns in often surprising ways, unfolding day by day at Seattle Grace Hospital. To say that Grey's Anatomy hit big in its second season would a bit of an understatement – the show went from "Who?" to "Wow!" in the span of just a few weeks; fans who had a taste of the snappy banter, palpable chemistry and stuffed-to-bursting storylines (replete with bosom-heaving, will-she-won't she, unrequited love) clamored for more and along with "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost," became part of ABC's breakout trifecta. Boasting a cast brimming with energy and well-suited to their roles, Grey's Anatomy not only served as a comeback vehicle for Eighties heartthrob Patrick Dempsey, but also a showcase for the exceptional acting talents of Sandra Oh and Isaiah Washington, as well as a proving ground for largely untested up-and-comers T.R. Knight, Katherine Heigl, Justin Chambers and Pompeo herself, whose pre-Grey's resume is littered with bit parts and one-off TV roles, who has blossomed into a low-key, unassuming star. With more than double the episodes allotted to the creative team this season, the world of Grey's Anatomy expanded considerably, opening itself up to story arcs that just wouldn't be possible within the span of nine episodes – the engine driving this second season is the McDreamy love triangle: Dr. Derek Shepherd, sort-of-not-really-estranged from his headstrong wife Addison, pines for the lovely young intern Meredith Grey, who falls head over heels for the good doctor. Emotional rawness and uncertainty lead to a season-long tug-of-war that ebbs and flows, serving as the backbone of the other, equally compelling arcs – the other interns fall in and out of bed, learn hard lessons and work to please the irascible Dr. Miranda Bailey (a winning Chandra Wilson), the physician in charge of these up-and-coming caregivers. With a few moments of "ER"-level gore and kinetic set pieces, the medical aspect of the show is given equal play with affairs of the heart; there are sequences that might leave the more squeamish unsettled, but those scenes are fleeting, lending just enough veracity to ground the show in a tangible realism.

Grey's Anatomy is by far the best show I have ever watched. I simply refuse to miss an episode. REFUSE! I too caught the premiere of Grey's Anatomy after watching Desperate Housewives. I almost turned the channel because I don't like medical dramas. They all see to be alike. Not Grey's Anatomy. Ellen Pompeo, Katherine Heigl, and Sandra Oh are wonderful! If you don't know who these people are, they play the characters of Meredith, Izzie, and Christina. Meredith's character is so believable. She is someone most of us can relate to. We almost feel her pain and love for Derick. I don't really like Addison, (Derick's wife). She seems kind of fake. Maybe that is just bc I like Meredith so much. George is wonderful. Who doesn't know a "George". I love when the character says "George is Callie's McDreamy." The story line is very deep. It has a point. It's not some silly hospital drama that is unbelievable. It also expresses that someone may love you and you not even know they exist. Kind of makes you think, huh. Everyone could use a little pick-me-up like that. Anyway, this is a great show. It is a show that for an hour, you are so tuned in that you forget about other things. This is great if you are like me and have no time for yourself. Buy the boxed sets. They have amazing uncut footage. You won't be sorry. You too will be a Grey's Addict.Read full review
