Billy Connolly: Live in London 2010: Directed by Nick Morris. With Billy Connolly. Billy Connolly, the King of Comedy, returns in his first brand new stand up for three years.

“When I began watching Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy I was single, dating and connected with the first round of characters that the show offered its audience. We were along for the journey with these young Doctors as they began their professional careers as well as their personal struggles with friendship and love. Fourteen seasons later, Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy has become a completely different show as we the audience has also changed. I am now married with children and at a similar time-line as some of the current cast members. It is for this reason that I am no longer a devoted fan. Having seen every episode since its pilot, I have finally questioned why I am still tuning in every week to watch the continuing adventures of Meredith Grey and her circle of friends and fellow doctors. Simple, it is no longer the same show I began to watch 14 seasons ago. Most of the character of the original show have left if not been killed off. The hospital has been set on fire, blown up, and taken hostage multiple times. We have seen love, lost, passion, promise, joy and sadness from multiple story lines throughout its run. Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy has reinvented itself so many times that we have seen its central figure (Meredith Grey) change for good and bad. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFrom the single girl, the devoted daughter, the young doctor, the passionate girl friend, the on again off again good / bad friend, the angry daughter living in her Momu0026#39; shadow, the newly-wed, young mother, widower, lost adult and now, for lack of anything else, a supporting character to the show that graces her name. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor this reason and the loss of so many of its prior cast members, I have found myself question time and time again when Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy u0026quot;jumped the shark.u0026quot; u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreyu0026#39;s Anatomy by default has inherited the generational audience of fans from such shows as St. Elsewhere, Chicago Hope and ER. The hospital drama has a home with Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy. When the show began, it was a home to a young cast of young professionals that were in multiple u0026quot;sexualu0026quot; relationships as they juggled their careers and side stories. Also, the show has taken a life of its own by juggling a much more diverse cast then it set out originally. With good and bad results, the solid fact remains that the current show does not reflect anything that the original show set out to be 14 seasons ago. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhile the show has created a multitude of amazing stories and moments for its audience to enjoy, I have lost that love and feeling many years ago. Now, I fear that after many years of hoping, wishing and praying, the show will not return to what it once was. It has tried several times to revive its cast to showcase this but has failed. Even during its second and third wind of new medical arrivals, only a handful have made the cut to the current cast while the large majority have disappeared if not written off the show. However, I am not angry at the overall show. Greyu0026#39; Anatomy has (had) produced many good characters and stories back in the day. Thank you for the good times, which were many many seasons ago. Now, audience members have to make a tough decision. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith that said, the show has struggled for an identity while holding onto several different aspects for a show. It has taken me this long to finally u0026quot;pull the plugu0026quot; and take Greyu0026#39;s Anatomy off of life support.”
