Reviews / Votes
"Television has always seduced viewers with guilty pleasures, shows and series never missed but never admitted to. Being only human, television scholars, too, have their embarrassing delights, and one of mine has continued to be Grey's Anatomy. But now that we have Grace Under Pressure, Cynthia Burkhead and Hillary Robson's smart and astute collection, it is time to come out of the (medical) closet, get out of the elevator, and accept, guilt-free, Shonda Rimes' medical melodrama into the quality pantheon."-- David Lavery, Founding Editor of Critical Studies in TelevisionMore details
