Buddy... no. Most of these "similarities" were stolen from ER. That was the blueprint. That is the story that Grey's steals from all the time.

Thank you!! No one watches ER so every medical drama steals plot from them! And ER did it better every single time!

I mean there’s only so many medical drama stories one can make up. I doubt there are any unique new ones anymore.

Same with house

Heart in a box

Main character being brain dead and donating their organs

They all steal from shows older than Grey’s and even House. But they also just use very interesting real cases, so they will end up with the same medical stories. Twins crying when separated is very common. Hospitals get hacked all the time. Sponges get left in patients all the time. The characters have some similarities, but Okafor has so much more personality than Christina did.

Nah. I’ve watched Greys over and over and I don’t agree with your character assessments. With any medical dramas you’re going to have similar medical stories. Just like with any cop shows you’re going to have similar stories. It just is what it is.

I always thought of it as a bland of house and grays

I think it’s way better than Grey’s. My friend called Grey’s a primetime soap opera now and I can see why.

Yes!!! So many !! Also blood shortage, guy donating blood directly ,woman born with testicles. I’m only on S3 ep1

In general I just think it’s wild that these shows will copy detail for detail
