Let’s face it. You’ve probably gotten sucked into at least one medical drama in your lifetime. As one of the most popular genres, viewers have been tuning into their favorite medical TV shows since the 1950s. So, what has made this type of program capture the interest of audiences for decades? Here we’ll discuss some of the most popular medical TV shows and why this genre has endured for so long! 4 Popular Medical TV Shows “Grey’s Anatomy” (2005- )   How can I write a list of popular medical TV shows without including Grey’s Anatomy? As of February, it became the longest-running American primetime medical drama of all time.

Brimming with juicy drama and strange medical anomalies, it holds over 70 awards and 200 nominations. As if that isn’t enough, Grey’s has just been renewed for an additional two seasons.  “House” (2004-2012) “House” is definitely my personal favorite on this list.

Narrated by medical intern John “J.D.” Dorian (Zach Braff), “Scrubs” fully immersed viewers in the unusual world of the fictional Sacred Heart Hospital. The program’s slapstick humor and frequent vignettes, which mostly take the form of J.D.’s daydreams, make it a truly unique and enjoyable viewing experience. Despite the show’s heavy doses of humor, Doctor Mike (YouTube’s hit physician-turned-vlogger) cited it to be one of the most medically accurate shows of its kind. “Scrubs” was also a hit with many critics, winning a total of 32 awards throughout its nine-season run.    The Good Doctor (2017- ) “The Good Doctor” is based...
