Grey's Anatomy - Wikipedia. This is an image of the cover of the book on which Grey's Anatomy was based. Grey's Anatomy is an American medical drama television series that premiered on American Broadcasting Company (ABC) as a mid- season replacement on March 2. The series focuses on the fictional lives of surgical interns,residents, and attending physicians, as they evolve into seasoned doctors while trying to maintain personal lives and relationships.

The title is a play on Gray's Anatomy, a classic human anatomy textbook by Henry Gray. The show's premise originated with creator Shonda Rhimes, who serves as an executive producer, along with Betsy Beers, Mark Gordon, Krista Vernoff, Rob Corn, Mark Wilding, and Allan Heinberg.

Although it is set in Seattle (at the fictional Grey- Sloan Memorial Hospital, formerly Seattle Grace), it is primarily filmed in Los Angeles, California. The show was originally titled Complications, a reference to the complicated medical procedures and personal lives of the characters. The series was designed to be racially diverse and used a color- blind casting technique.

It revolves around the title character, Dr. Meredith Grey, played by Ellen Pompeo. The original cast consisted of nine star- billed actors: Pompeo, Sandra Oh, Katherine Heigl, Justin Chambers, T.

R. Knight, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr., Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey. The cast has undergone major changes through the show's run, with many members leaving and being replaced by others. In its twelfth season, the show had a large ensemble of sixteen actors, including four characters from the original cast (Meredith Grey, Alex Karev, Miranda Bailey, and Richard Webber). On February 1. 0, 2. ABC renewed Grey's Anatomy for a fourteenth season, which premiered on September 2. The series' success catapulted such long- running cast members as Pompeo, Dempsey, and Oh to worldwide recognition; they were among the top five highest- earning television actors in 2.

Grey's Anatomy, even in its fourteenth season, is ABC's highest- rated drama. While its ratings have fallen over the course of its run (it was once among the overall top 1. United States), it is still one of the highest- rated shows among the 1. No. 3 drama on all of broadcast television.[4]Grey's Anatomy has been well received by critics throughout much of its run, and has been included in various criticss' year- end top ten lists. Since its inception, the show has been described by the media outlets as a television "phenomenon" or a "juggernaut", owing to its longevity and dominant ratings.

It is considered to have had a significant effect on popular culture and has received numerous awards, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series – Drama. It has received multiple Primetime Emmy Award nominations, including two for Outstanding Drama Series. The series was the highest revenue- earning show on television, in terms of advertising, in the 2. It is the longest- running scripted primetime show currently airing on ABC, the second- longest scripted primetime ABC show ever, and the second- longest primetime medical drama. The series follows Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), the daughter of an esteemed general surgeon named Ellis Grey, following her acceptance into the residency program at the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital. During her time as a resident, Grey works alongside fellow doctors Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh), Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers), and George O'Malley (T. R. Knight), who each struggle to balance their personal lives with the hectic work and training schedules.

They are overseen during their internship by Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson), a senior resident who works for attending Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey), the head of neurosurgery and Meredith's love interest; Preston Burke (Isaiah Washington), the head of cardio who becomes Yang's fiancee; and Richard Webber (James Pickens, Jr.), the Chief of Surgery and attending general surgeon, and lover of Ellis Grey decades ago. The residents are later joined by Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) and April Kepner (Sarah Drew), former Mercy- West residents who join Seattle Grace following an administrative merger in the sixth season. Throughout the first six seasons, Burke, O'Malley and Stevens all depart the series.

In addition to Webber, Burke, and Shepherd, the surgical wing is primarily supervised by Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh), as head of OB/GYN, neonatal, and fetal surgery; Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez), a resident who later becomes head of orthopedic surgery, who left Seattle at the end of the twelfth season; Mark Sloan (Eric Dane), as head of plastics; Owen Hunt (Kevin Mc. Kidd), as head of trauma; Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw), as head of pediatric surgery, and later head of fetal surgery; Erica Hahn (Brooke Smith), as head of cardio; Teddy Altman (Kim Raver), as head of cardio; and Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), Derek's sister who is hired to replace him as head of neuro. Later additions to the residency program include Lexie Grey (Chyler Leigh), Meredith's half- sister.

Lexie Grey is killed alongside Mark Sloan in the season eight finale; Leah Murphy (Tessa Ferrer) who departs near the end of the tenth season, but returns during the thirteenth; Shane Ross (Gaius Charles), who departs alongside Yang in the tenth- season finale; Stephanie Edwards (Jerrika Hinton), who resigns during season thirteen; Jo Wilson (Camilla Luddington), a doctor who begins a romantic relationship with Karev; Andrew Deluca (Giacomo Gianniotti), the love- interest of Meredith's half- sister Maggie Pierce (Kelly Mc. Creary), who also serves as head of cardio; and Benjamin Warren (Jason George), an anesthesiologist- turned- resident,[5] who has to balance his wife Miranda Bailey's new role as Chief of Surgery with his own desire to succeed. In Season twelve attending cardio surgeon Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) joins the show. In season thirteen, the hospital sees a shakeup when attending sports medicine/orthopedic surgeon Eliza Minnick (Marika Dominczyk) is hired as an educational consultant wanting to revamp the residency program. She is fired following the explosion at the hospital. Production and development[edit]Conception[edit]Shonda Rhimes wanted to make a show that she would enjoy watching,[6] and thought it would be interesting to create a show about "smart women competing against one another".[7] When asked how she decided to develop a medical drama, Rhimes responded: “I was obsessed with the surgery channels.

My sisters and I would call each other up and talk about operations we'd seen on the Discovery Channel. There's something fascinating about the medical world—you see things you'd never imagine, like the fact that doctors talk about their boyfriends or their day while they're cutting somebody open. So when ABC asked me to write another pilot, the [operating room] seemed like the natural setting.[8]”The series was pitched to ABC Entertainment, who gave the green light, and the show was picked up as a mid- season replacement for Boston Legal in the 2. Francie Calfo, executive vice president of development at ABC Entertainment, commented that ABC was looking for a medical show that was unlike the others airing at the time. She pointed out that "[m]edical shows are hard, and it was hard trying to figure out where ours could be different. But where everybody else is speeding up their medical shows, [Rhimes] found a way to slow it down, so you get to know the characters.

There's definitely a strong female appeal to it."[7]"ER is high- speed medicine. The camera flies around, adrenaline is rushing. My show is more personal. The idea for the series began when a doctor told me it was incredibly hard to shave her legs in the hospital shower.

At first that seemed like a silly detail. But then I thought about the fact that it was the only time and place this woman might have to shave her legs.
