  • Considering the success which the series meets, ABC renewed it for season 2006/2007, the series passing of the Sunday to Thursday on the grid of the programs. However, the bet, also dared is it, is not won in advance: indeed, Grey will have to then compete with the most looked at fiction the USA: the Experts ( CSI ), diffused per same hour on CBS.
  • the English titles of the episodes of Grey' S Anatomy are titles of songs: has Hardware Day' S Night (The Beatles), The First Cut Is The Deepest (Cat Stevens)

During its diffusion in France, the scene where Izzie bored the cranium of a patient with a drilling machine was censured, undoubtedly diffused too early in the evening.

The musical environment of the series is very important. It is used on several occasions during the episode to put forward the feelings and the emotions, not only of the characters but also of the televiewers. The series employs a musical supervisor of which the goal is to choose the most capable musics to correspond to the series. It is also the occasion for us to discover promising groups.
