Reality sucks, but this didn't

Really?!?!
For all the commentators that are upset they can't escape from reality and watch greys anatomy without thinking about COVID, maybe put on some Tom and Jerry and avoid a medical drama. Wanting a MEDICAL DRAMA not to touch on the most impactful medical issue of our lifetime is not just ridiculous but stupid!

great episode
Don't listen to the haters. this was a great episode that has the best COVID storyline on tv that i have seen. it was amazing and set up the season in a good way. seeing what happened after the last season was great. it's good to see what doctor's have to go through in the time of COVID. the episode may have had some downs, but overall was good.
A good start to the season
The episode brings a time jump, shows the situation of the coronavirus in mid-April, and managed to close the loose ends left last season very well. my rating: 9/10

Solid but not great
While on the one hand it is good that the doctors and nurses are wearing masks all the time around the hospital, a big minus are the scenes where some of the doctors are unhooking the mask from one ear and let it dangle on the other ear to be returned later over the mouth. It is very dangerous to do so with used masks and it should not be advertised in any show as an acceptable behaviour, and especially not by doctors. Some people are looking up even to TV doctors and think if it is shown in the show, then it must be okay.
No, masks are to be removed carefully with both hands at the same time and immediately disposed of, then comes the handwashing.
Face acting
Watching this episode made me realise how important facial reactions are to acting,felt very flat without reactions and hope they can find some way around it.

Mics exposed
The episode was really good I loved how they bought the pandemic into it, although I noticed when they wear the protective gear you can see the characters mics which made the show feel less real then it's meant to feel.

As if we haven't seen enough..
Yes, COVID-19 is real, we have all lived it for over 8 months but we don't need to see it in our TV shows. Yes, this is a medical show but it's fictional, we don't need to be reminded of the struggle we have experienced every day, the terror that we think about and live all the time. I hope this is the only episode because I don't think I can take the rest of this season dwelling on Covid-19 in real time. I've watched this series for 17 years and we come to these shows as a distraction, we are not ignoring it, but it would be nice to tap out for 45mins.

Awful
People's lives have been overwhelmed with covid... we needed tv shows to escape the reality of it all. We need entertainment to take us away not bring us back in and keep jamming it down our throats. Give us entertainment and not more stress and depressing BS. Watched every season multiple times but don't think I'll be watching this one if the entire season is like this!

Predictable
It's been such a great series. If the writers would keep the politics out, it would be nearly perfect. This new episode was predictable and ridiculous. We know alllllllll about the masks, we don't need them plastered in our faces.
Some of the worst TV I have ever seen
Flat writing. Emotionless acting. Even the set dressing looks awful. Grey's used to be sharp and incisive, but now it has all the skill of a high school play.
