Move onto Grey’s Anatomy

We can’t have this list without one of the longest medical dramas ever on TV. Yes, Grey’s Anatomy is still going.

This is a series that brought us a story about a group of interns figuring out the ropes. There have been some excellent (and heartbreaking!) patient storylines over the years. While we get the steamy elevator moments, we also get the heartfelt stories that leave us craving more. Just stop killing off the characters we connect to the most!

There are some outlandish storylines and moments, but we can overlook them for the development of characters. We can also overlook them for the great patient storylines and lessons characters have learned over the years.

The series did see a bit of a dip in recent years, especially Season 17, but it’s picked things back up again. The new intern class bring us more learning and more potential development.

Catch up on Grey’s Anatomy on Hulu.

Now check out Transplant

You know all about the American healthcare system. That’s the one focused on in a lot of medical dramas. Well, it’s time to see the Canadian healthcare system at work. You can do that with Transplant.

This series brings us the story of refugees as well as doctors. Bash is a Syrian refugee who is a brilliant doctor but unable to work in the Canadian healthcare system. He doesn’t have all his documents from Syria. That changes when he saves the life of the Chief of Surgery at York Memorial.

Now Bash needs to understand the way the Canadian healthcare system works. He can’t do everything that he would have done in Syria, and his way isn’t always the best way. However, his training in a war-torn country certainly helped him deal with situations calmly, something that his fellow doctors can learn from.

We get to see how Bash learns things the Canadian way, while also seeing other doctors learn to trust his instincts. Then there are various developments in the careers of characters, and we can’t overlook Dr. Bishop’s health problems after his life-saving surgery.

Watch Transplant on Peacock.
