Grey’s Anatomy
If there’s one show I always come back to, it’s Shonda Rhimes’s magnum opus GREY’S ANATOMY. This mid-season replacement for BOSTON LEGAL wowed audiences worldwide when it debuted in 2005, featuring a pitch-perfect (and diverse AF!) cast with a bomb-ass soundtrack—Snow Patrol, Ingrid Michaelson, and, oh yes, Adele—that single-handedly reinvented the procedural medical drama and marked the beginning of Rhimes’s prolific track record. Shonda, if you’re reading this, THANKS QUEEN! You gave this little repressed gay boy so much hope. <3
