Grey's Anatomy is my all-time favorite. I am Mer-Der all the way!!!!!

I also love ER....

[Cammykiss]

Love Grey's Anatomy, ER (even though it has been on too long), House and a new show on TNT called Saved. More paramedic drama then nursing, but still really good, and of course, TLC and Disovery health programs

Grey's Anatomy and Discovery Health, I love watching plastic surgery.

[Josh L.Ac.]

I only allow myself to watch three TV series at one time [on DVD - we don't have cable], and two of them are medically oriented:

Scrubs - it is actually scary how similar the humor on the show parallels mine

House - the perfect antithesis to what a good, holistic health care provider should be...and I love it. Plus, it is a great exercise in ways to violate medical ethics.

I love watching Grey's Anatomy! I don't watch it regularly, but when I catch it, the channel stays there.

has anybody seen the special on discovery health, i can't remember the name exactly, but something like "Left Behind in the OR".. ? anyway, it's about surgical tools being left in the body after surgery and found on x-rays and such, long after the procedure, or in some cases, causing MAJOR medical problems. one of the most interesting was a man who had something removed and after the surgery, he noticed a sharp pain in his side everytime he rolled over in the bed a certain way. he never followed up on it, just learned to lay a different way in the bed. years later, when getting x-rays for something unrelated, an x-ray tech discovered a pair of scissors in his abdomen

I am now addicted to Grey's Anatomy, thanks to this thread--I went out and rented season 1 and DH and I watched 8 episodes over the weekend!

Yes, I love my DVR!!!! I have Grey's Anatomy and Saved set to record all new episodes. I tell everybody that I'm on the lookout for my own George at the hospital! I used to be a very faithful ER watcher, and I think it's still set on the DVR, but it doesn't get watched very often. I also love a lot of the stuff on Discovery Health - there are some FASCINATING shows on there! I also record House, but all the nurses on there are ever used for is "clean-up on aisle 3" as House shouts out. The docs on there do all the transports, meds, blood draws, etc. It's really annoying. And how many times have you seen House jab somebody with a syringe w/out cleaning the site first? Just once I would like to see a nurse on the show who shows some competence! But it is an educational show and challenges my thinking.

I don't really care for the medical drama shows on the networks...too much like soap operas for me...

I'm with you, Sonya! Dr G even offers us little exercises in critical thinking with the way that the cases are presented. Another Discovery Health show that I enjoy is First Days, although I haven't seen it in a while.

Basically everything on Discovery Heath.

Grey's Anatomy- LOVE IT

Scrubs- because I * oh so wish* I could be as mouthy as most of them on the job- lol
