More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Grey's Anatomy Season 7 All Critics (5) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (2) In a rush to get back on track after their brush with Columbine, characters - with the exception of Yang - have been turned into parodies of themselves. Worse, the stories surrounding them feel airless, forced and manipulative. Sep 23, 2010 | Rating: D | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic Unfortunately, the best bits of the premiere were the flashbacks to the finale, though their impact was watered down considerably in the context of an action-less storyline, filled with Grey's usual rambling pontifications. Sep 23, 2010 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review… Renee Scolaro Rathke PopMatters After a handful of seasons that were, charitably, hit and miss, Grey's has started to get entertaining again. Apr 1, 2011 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Todd VanDerWerff AV Club Top Critic Season 7 hasn't relegated the finale's events to a dramatic stunt; rather, it's reveled in the possibilities of rebuilding life in the wake of tragedy.
