Antithesis
Grey's Anatomy is the opposite of Desperate Housewives. I love the show. It is probably one of two or three shows I actually look forward to during the week. Although the characters' lives are a little over-dramatic, as in, my life is never that interesting on a weekly basis (which is why there is no tv show about my life), it explores realistic feelings and topics, rather than insipid melodrama. And although characters are slightly predictable (ok, we get it, Dr. Yang is type-A and super competitive), they keep ending up in unique unpredictable situations. And often, hilarity ensues.

Furthermore, although everyone on that show is HOT, they are also real. Not everyone on the show is stick thin, and the cast is pretty multi-ethnic. E.g. Sara Ramirez, formerly of Spamalot! fame, who's Latina and plays George's love interest ... and apparently lives in the basement of the hospital. Anyways. Another favorite is Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Yumm. But I digress. Really, the show is enjoyable, although the tasty actors are like icing. Icing on an already very tasty cake.

On one final note ... all the surgeons on the show, as surgeons in real life are kind of meant to be, are all type-A overachievers each in his/her own little way. Umm, kind of like law school, no?
