ABC is on a hot streak. After a couple of season where they couldn't pay someone to watch their shows, their latest launch, "Grey's Anatomy," on Sunday nights after "Desperate Housewives" is a winner.
After only one episode, it's easy to tell that the writing is good, the characters are strong and the actors -- Patrick Dempsey, Ellen Pompeo and Isaiah Washington -- are all quite solid here.
Certainly, the world doesn't need another medical drama but "Grey" on ABC and "House" on Fox are proving there's always room for quality.

Thought Grey's Anatomy was borderline. They didn't convince me that they had anything fresh to say about the doctor experience - could we possibly need another show telling us about the combination of fear and cockiness, fatigue and adrenaline, that is being a new doctor? The crotchety, "don't wake me up" resident, the nervous newbies. So done. Between ER and Scrubs, there isn't a lot of drama or comedy wiggle room for these folks. That being said, they've definitely got some good performers there, both heralded and unheralded.
Both my wife and I saw the lead actress, Ellen Pompeo, and had the same thought simultaneously - where is Paula Devicq these days?
