All I could think about during last night's episode of Grey's Anatomy is how it will feel to watch the series if the Affordable Care Act is fully repealed. To be very clear: I know there are far worse consequences of the bill than its impact on TGIT programming. Thousands will sicken and die. I could easily be one of them. All I'm trying to do is illuminate the lens through which I was watching the episode. And to be even clearer: The repeal isn't set in stone yet. Keep calling, keep writing, get louder. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below To be fair, Grey's has always shied away from delving too deeply into the financial lives of its patients (they've been all too eager to dig into the financial health of the hospital though). We don't see patients frantically paging through bills once they've been discharged or calling their insurance companies to get procedures cleared. But it bears mentioning that the show's two most memorable episodes about financial hardship for patients both aired during the Bush administration: Joe the bartender's inability to pay for his expensive brain surgery and Ryan, the young boy who "trick or treated" for doctors and … Continue reading →

Dramatic revelations in penultimate episodes often prove to be pivotal in the life of a new series beyond mere plot mechanics. Its at this point that a show either proves to be worthy of admiration or falls apart under the weight of its own ambition. Riverdale has been one of the most engaging, blissfully bonkers, and visually rich new shows Ive seen in a long time. It knows exactly how to hit that elusive sweet spot that so many teen dramas aim for. But I was worried that the reveal of Jasons murderer wouldnt meet my expectations. Part of my apprehension stems from the nagging issues that have been weighing down recent episodes like Veronicas off-putting characterization and the complete sidelining of characters I previously enjoyed like Josie. But Anatomy of a Murder didnt just meet my expectations it exceeded them. Im left yearning for more high-intensity drama, witty comebacks, and family drama. This episode has everything. Incest, maple syrup intrigue, unhinged mothers, several showdowns, and Alice holding a gun, proving once again shes not one to be messed with. This isnt the kind of exhilarating and fun episode that quickly fades from memory. By exploring the fractures within these … Continue reading →

How Maggie awkwardly handles Meredith and Riggs. How Meredith fights the pain of losing Derek. How Bailey handles church and state when Minnickcalls out that Warren isnt a risk taker. And then, you know, actual tumors. Lets just hop in. Thick Skin and A Tumor Heart DeLuca and April end up together with a poor girl whose sexcapade turns into a free fall down two flights of stairs when she mistakes the front door for the bathroom. But the thing is, shes just stopping in for a broken arm, even though … Continue reading →

Columns Thomas Woodrey - May 4, 2017 For as bad of a wrap as lefthanded pitchers get, closers definitely take the cake as the most unique players in the game. No two closers are the same, and no one style is better than the next. In my time at the University of Miami, I got to experience several unique personalities as they attacked the role. Theres both a mental and physical component to being a closer, and I am going to dissect just what it takes to excel in each area. Its the bottom of the ninth and your team is up one run. The opposing team has been building momentum, and you need to close it out and secure the win. So who do you bring in: the crazy, hyped up closer who has been chirping at the other team from the dugout all game, or the locked in reliever that has been visualizing in the corner of the dugout all game? Trick question! It doesnt matter. The majority of my career I had the extreme pleasure of watching Miamis current all-time saves leader, and 2016 Stopper of the Year, Bryan Garcia. Garcia was a fierce competitor maybe the … Continue reading →

When it comes to the kids under his care, Dr. Alex Karev is as protective as a mama bear with her cubs. And as Greys Anatomy fans have seen before, hes willing to toe lines or even cross them to give them the best care. But in this sneak peek from Thursdays new episode, Alex (Justin Chambers) runs into a new force of opposition Eliza Minnick (Marika Dominczyk). A boy named Liam comes into the hospital with a tumor, but his parents refuse surgery due to their religious beliefs. The kid took a train all by himself to ask us for help, Alex pleads toEliza. Actual help, not prayers and olive oil on his head. Eliza doesnt back down. No neurosurgeon will cut into a kids skull without parental consent, because its illegal, she replies. And then, twisting the knife a bit, she notes that with his history assaulting DeLuca and almost going to prison for it perhaps he shouldnt be crossing any lines right now. Greys Anatomy airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on ABC. Read More From Yahoo TV: Excerpt from: 'Grey's Anatomy' Sneak Peek: Alex Battles Eliza Over a Kid's Rights - Yahoo TV (blog) … Continue reading →
