I was thinking this might be the last season but with these ratings it could go on a few more years.

Good, I really like the show.

This is probably the best medical drama out there right now. I can't believe people still watch Gray's Anatomy. It's absolutely HORRIBLE. It's not even a medical drama but a soap that takes place in a hospital but even that's awful!
