I originally started watching this show because of Marina, and I was close to giving up on it because of the lackluster plots in the previous seasons. However, the fourth season has stepped up the game, possibly due to the impact of the pandemic and the whole Floyd issue. Some of the episodes are just as brilliant as certain ones from "Grey's Anatomy" (I was watching both at the same time). The writers have finally recaptured the creative spark they had before, and the show isn't as shallow as it was in the first and second seasons. I'd recommend it to fans who wanted more after watching "Grey's Anatomy."

I'm on the sixth season, and the plot is getting more and more ridiculous. The writers seem to be running out of fresh ideas, and the characters' traits are becoming more radical. There's a death in every season, and it feels very forced. Maya's story was initially fascinating, but it's gotten increasingly absurd in the sixth season. As the most stubborn character in "Station 19", Maya made a lot of changes and sacrifices for Carina in the earlier seasons. Still, she's portrayed as foolish and pitiful in the sixth season. I hope the seventh season will bring the character development back to a more realistic place, and I'm eager to see how the other characters will grow and change!
