Trivia:

Fisher Plaza, which houses Seattle's ABC affiliate KOMO-TV, is used for some exterior shots of Seattle Grace Hospital. In the pilot episode when the patient is flown in via helicopter, you can see the KOMO 4 logo on the side of the building and their 10+ satellite dishes on the roof. Fisher Plaza puts Seattle Grace conveniently close to the Space Needle, the Seattle Monorail, and other local landmarks. However, the hospital used for most other exterior and many interior shots is not in Seattle; these scenes are shot at the VA Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center in North Hills, California.

Entirely Worth the DVDS price and time.

Hands down, the best show currently on television. The writing is absolutely brilliant, the actors can have you laughing, then crying in a matter of seconds, and the ensemble itself is phenomenal. if you aren't watching, you are making a HUGE mistake. Buy the DVDS, spend some time watching them or even jump in right now, you'd catch up eventually, it's not like "LOST". seriously. best. show. ever. It seems like each week as a viewer you're left saying, okay, they've hit their peak and there is no way it could possibly surpass this, and then they do. I'm a film student, and I would absolutely LOVE the opportunity to create something like this show. I am normally not an overly emotional person but with Grey's, all bets are off. I watch episodes from previous seasons and they still affect me the same way as if I'm watching them for the first time, because each time you put more and more together and you learn something new. Each character is incredibly unique with their own set of goals, talents, and faults. Even the character that in any other show you would despise (Addison- for breaking Meredith and Derek up originally), from the instant she walked in became someone I was curious about. Each character is so intelligent and tenacious and yet they are all so vulnerable to different things but what keeps them together is what Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl) said, their ability to believe in their survival. I can't say enough great things about this show. Watch it.
