YouTube YouTube
AH, REMEMBER THE mid-2000s when it seemed like the entire country was fixated with Seattle Grace and McDreamy?
If you weren’t watching Desperate Housewives, you were probably busy watching Grey’s Anatomy, the hospital drama that totally gripped the nation and helped fill the ER-shaped hole in our lives.
Let’s take a look back, shall we?
You tuned into RTÉ 2 to watch it every week. But God help you if you missed it, because everyone around you would inevitably be discussing it the next day.
Mysterious illnesses! Dramatic plane crashes! Sexy time in closets!

“I might not know my arse from my elbow, but I strongly believe I could be Ireland’s Cristina Yang.”

That piano intro, though.
You still regard Cristina and Meredith as the ultimate embodiment of #friendshipgoals
