Worth starting grey's anatomy?

Never watched an episode in my life and have absolutely no idea what to watch. Is it worth starting from the very beginning?

(I'm up with a poorly baby and likely to be the second night of sofa cuddles)

Also open to other suggestions I have Netflix and sky box sets. I love crime documentaries and dramas like The good wife, Luther, House, happy valley, silk, etc.

Yes definitely, I binge watched the first 12 seasons non stop with a cluster feeding newborn and loved it, I felt bereft watching the last one! Still like it now.

I went for Line of Duty for the cluster feeding phase Grin

Haha I also did the same and watched first 13 seasons with my cluster feeding non-sleeping baby, Grey's Anatomy got me through!

Absolutely! I started a year or so ago and am loving it, on season 10 now.

Watch it! It is addictive. Great drama but basically a love story.

YES! YES!
The second season is so good too.

Absolutely love it. I am constantly watching it - as soon as I finish the latest season I start watching the first again Confused. It's my comfort to show, along with ally McBeal. Always watching the both of them.

If you end up liking greys, give Scandal a go - similar feel (same writer or producer and a lot of the same actors).

Eilasor I've done Scandal! I hate Olivia Pope though. I loved Mellie and Cyrus so kept with it, but think I'll be giving season 7 a miss, it got ridiculous! How to get away with murder is quite good too.

Watched the pilot, loved it. We're not going to have any issues here Wink

I loved GA so would recommend. I’m ill and have been binging Jane the Virgin on Netflix this week, can’t recommend that highly enough.

OP, I hated Olivia pope too! Quite like greys as there are some characters to love and some to hate.

Another recommendation for Jane the Virgin as well.

Grey's is brilliant in the beginning... its getting a bit boring now though. Jane the Virgin is excellent!

I've just done all of GA from the very start and absolutely loved it, finished just as the new seasons started. I now eagerly await the next episode every Wednesday night.

I used to watch it when did was a baby but then sort of forgot about it. Where are you all watching it? I’ve got Netflix, Prime and virgin so don’t really want to spend another subscription fee.

I think you will find it on virgin

Brilliant! Thank you! That’s all my baths sorted for the next 6 months at least 😂

God I’m watching S11 at the moment and am 2 to the end. It’s taken me about 8months to get here and I honestly don’t know what I’ll do when it’s finished!!

Yep. It's trash but it's awesome trash.

I love it, though there are more holes in the stories than in a sieve. They really need to get better medics on set for timelines regarding operations and recovery!! But aside from that, it's very watchable and I adore Kevin McKidd (Owen Hunt) Grin. Never got the whole dreamy/steamy thing with the 2 early male leads.
