Best Thing Ever Done On this Subject,
This actually plays on the History channel once or twice a year. (I know, I know, the History channel seems to forget they’re supposed to be about history a lot of the time).
This is one of those things that if I ever turn it on and watch part of it, I’ll sit there and watch the entire thing. Again. It really is a tour de force in what television could be if they were willing to show less reality tv crap and invest in more educational projects.
this is a documentary, and a really, really good one. It shows the places where it all happened then and what it looks like now. It explains the real dynamics of how this came to happen and the aftermath (the U.S. government decided enough with Al Capone and sic’ed the Internal Revenue Service on him. By, by Al. Hello, alcatraz.) the moral? do not piss off the U.S. government. Just ask baghwan rajneesh or osama bin laden.
they have all sorts of experts on this, even a guy with mafia ties who tells you who some of the infamous shooters were (a guy named Fred “killer” Burk was the most infamous).
IF only tv were this good on a regular basis. This would be perfectly ok to show to school kids if you’re a history teacher. one of the pictures of the aftermath (the bodies) is a bit gory but I think it’s good to show people just what really happened here.
This is one of the best things on American crime I’ve ever seen. I hope it won some awards. It deserves them.

Welcome back, Grey’s.,
I’ve been a follower of this show since the very beginning, and it’s definitely had its ups and downs. Seasons 4 and 5 weren’t my favourites, but Season 6 was MUCH more like the Grey’s I’d come to know and love. I actually cared about what was happening. Can’t wait for next year!

Most Loved Medical Drama,
Grey’s Anatomy is NOT for the faint of heart. The characters get under your skin and become family. Watching them grow and evolve is like watching your own family grow and evolve. This season was incredible, and I highly recommend it to anyone interesting in some incredible storyline and great acting. Especially the finale… you won’t be able to stop talking about it!

Good Season, Amazing Finale!,
I have been watching Grey’s since the beginning, and there are some awesome episodes. But nothing compares to the finale last season. It is one gripping two hours of television that you don’t want to miss out on. The season overall is good, and has it’s definite highlights; but nothing compares to the season 6 finale. Spoilers ahead…
The season starts with George’s death, and later in the season Izzie leaves. It feels somewhat strange at first, but George was in so little of last season I honestly didn’t notice his departure as much as Izzie’s. We are introduced to some new doctors as the merger happens. They are probably the only thing I didn’t like about this season, as I found most of the annoying, with the exception of Dr. Avery. Alex deals with the loss of Izzie and their impending divorce, Christina and Owen have a relationship hurdle to jump over, Callie and Arizona have a ‘baby’ of a problem, Derek becomes the new chief and all the hardships that come with that, a blast from the past comes back to haunt the Chief, Bailey gets some love action, Lexie and Mark part ways, Meredith deals with her father and a very significant loss. If that isn’t enough to entice you, then the finale should be. A gunman is loose in the hospital and no one is safe. Literally every moment has you on the edge of your seat and in a perpetual state of shock. Some don’t make it out alive, and others will never be the same. When I watched it live I could hardly wait for the commercial breaks to be over. I never thought any episode would be better that the season 2 finale, but this episode makes that one look like a filler episode. Overall this was a great season with a season finale to ‘die’ for! Don’t miss the season 7 premiere September 23rd!
