There is this show that I have been obsessed with for a while now and that show is Grey's Anatomy. If anyone reading this watches this show you can understand why this show is very obsessive. I decided that I want to devote this blog to Grey's Anatomy; I know it sounds very crazy but this is something that I can really have fun writing about. On this blog I will talk about a bunch of episodes that I myself love and maybe episodes that I do not like that much (but every episode is amazing). Basically if you don't know what this show is about let me sum it up for you. It is about a bunch of surgeons who have this job at a hospital named Seattle Grace Hospital and they all start off as interns and over time they become residents so on and so forth.
The story A Television Drama, by Jane Rule is an exciting story about an unusual event, which the main character, Carolee Mitchell, experiences the end of. The story is about her quiet street becoming unusually busy with police officers, and how the man who is being chased by these officers ends up being outside her front door. Through the point of view of the story, the characterization and character change of Carolee Mitchell, and the setting of the story, A Television Drama is an exciting read. The story conveys how important it is to be aware of ones surroundings, and what is happening around oneself through these elements.
Running for more than 11 seasons, Grey’s Anatomy is never boring. A dramatic, blood pumping (literally) show that will get you saying, “I learned that medical term from Grey’s Anatomy!” Grey’s Anatomy follows a group of doctors in Seattle. We follow the protagonist, Meredith Grey (played by Ellen Pompeo) struggle with her relationship with her colleagues children, and recently (*spoiler alert*) her deceased husband.
Shonda Rhimes’ medical television drama, Grey’s Anatomy, takes place is Seattle, Washington in the fictional Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital. The series focuses on the fictional lives of a group of surgical inters and residents, whom evolve into specialized doctors, while trying to maintain a personal life with significant others and loved ones. The series has seen many characters come and go, but Dr. Meredith Grey is the central character of the show. The television series has a lot of trauma either in patient lives, such as car accidents or illnesses, or in the doctor lives, such as a hospital shooting or a plane crash. Grey’s Anatomy expresses the causes of PTSD better than Pretty Little Liars, but still does not express all possible traumas
Everyone who has seen Grey’s Anatomy knows all the problems and struggles the characters go through with each episode they watch; they know how much Meredith Grey struggles with her mommy and daddy issues which distract her at work and led her to become emotional involved or make an error with a patient. Everyone has seen the characters on the show have committed at least one mistake that led to the death of a patient or a near to death experience. From the time Callie Torres, an orthopedic surgeon, left a sponge inside of a patient and closed him up to the time George O’Malley, a surgical resident, who nearly killed a patient. But what most viewers who watch Grey’s Anatomy do not fully comprehend is that this is not just in a drama but this is in real life—all doctors make mistakes.
A question I have been asked more often than not, “What would you rather be if not a doctor?” Well, my journey as a doctor has seen a share of crests and troughs, but I will not have it any other way. I am a book lover, and every good read is time saved; I have trekked mountains, and every step brought forth a sense of achievement; I have been recognized for my English debating skills many a time. Every cup held was precious, but none of it so fulfilling and rewarding as another human being trusting you with his breath. This texture of human relationships is unique to this profession, and is probably what makes it sublime to the eyes of a common man.
Glee: Defying the Mainstream The herd will take care of it” (Glee). This is not a reference to cattle but rather a reference to high school students; this quote was said by a teacher on the show Glee, indicating that students enforce the status quo. Ironically, this show does the opposite. The episode “Pilot” from the show Glee by Ryan Murphy is unique for television shows because it reverses the stereotypical views of society, and this essay will analyze it by summarizing the show, applying the Rhetorical Method and the Gender & Sexuality Method, discussing an outside source to further explain the creators motives regarding the show, and evaluating the text as a whole.
I am writing a review on the very popular television show, Shameless. In part, this is one of my favorite shows, and it deals with current social and economic issues relevant in today’s society.

A killer is not born. A killer is made. However, we are all born with the potential to kill, and any one of us can be made into a killer. It might take a lot to drive us to murder, but some people are simply more susceptible to the idea than others. People tend to believe that serial killers are mentally ill individuals, however, more often than not, they are rational beings who have suffered tremendously. Often, we cannot tell who is a serial killer. It could be the person standing next to you, and you would not have the slightest indication. Serial killers are shaped by isolation from their peers, neglect from loved ones or caregivers, and copious amounts of physical and psychological abuse as children.
What drives a person past insanity? What drives an individual to feel no remorse, but rather a psychological relief in murderous acts? Consider all the different types of people on Earth as well as the lifestyles and situations these people are raised up in. As much as it’s desired to think the world is filled with people who carry no such thing as a bad bone in their bodies, that thought process is simple deception. The fact is that psychopaths and sociopaths hide among others in everyday environments - neighbors, teachers, family members, doctors, friends, or even the local mailman. Psychopaths are declared as people who suffer from a mental disorder causing aggression and abnormal behaviors such as their “lack of
According to the Oxford Dictionary; a serial killer is a person who commits a series of murders, often with no apparent motive and typically following a characteristic, predictable behavior pattern. They usually go through a cooling down period where there are no murders. Then start the killing spree back up again after the cooling down period. The killing spree usually doesn’t last more than a couple of years without the murderer being caught. And there is usually a victim type and killing style which leads to the killer being identified. This is the definition of a serial killer so why is it so commonly believed that this is a male dominated area. “However, if, as seems to be the case in many countries, the only
By definition, a serial killer is ‘an individual who murders more than three victims, one at a time during a relatively short interval’, but is it possible to define the reasons and motives behind these attacks? One of the most intriguing aspects of crime throughout the years has been focused on serial killers. What makes a serial killer tick? There is not any one, straightforward answer as to what motivates individuals to commit murder. “Unravelling the making of a serial killer is like aligning a Rubik's cube”.
Atul Gawande writes an outstanding book about surgery that displays the true color of surgery. By telling stories of all the flaws he saw and experiences in his own year as a surgical resident. Atul vividly demonstrates this by the use of annotations to show that he know what he is actually saying and to make the reader understand his thoughts as a resident.

A serial killer is defined as a person who murders three or more people in at least three separate events, with a "cooling-off period" between the kills.

Grey’s Anatomy is a medical drama that encompasses the professional and personal lives of interns and residents as they strive to become surgeons. The beginning of the series focuses on one intern, Meredith Grey, who is taking part in the residency program at Seattle Grace Hospital.

Jack the Ripper, the Zodiac Killer, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Son of Sam, the BTK Killer. The names and assumed names of these cold-blooded serial killers are forever branded into the cognizance of people everywhere. This is mainly due to the mass media coverage, including newspapers, movies, television specials and books. This media coverage brought to light that these killers were, on the surface, normal, successful, attractive, productive members of society – that is, until the time that their heinous crimes came to be discovered.
