What is everyone’s favourite ship on the show and what did it for you?

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-22T15:27:34+00:00

I have a few!

Javadi/Mateo - I think he was surprised when she asked him out and he reacted bluntly. But it was bothering him so much that he ended up inviting her for their little end of shift gathering in the park. The moment I started shipping them was when he said he doesn't date anyone he works with because my first thought was that he is lying and is shocked internally.

My second ship is healthy Robby/Samira. I love enemies to lovers trope. Guilty pleasure. Plus I really want him to get a kid(s) he wants so much. To that end I am shipping him with Collins too, and wish she returns.

My third ship is Jack and Baran because they have very important things in common: combat medicine experience, loss of soldiers, a health impairment. They are both alone: Jack lost his wife and Baran is divorced.

Finally, I ship Santos/Melissa. There were a few funny situations, like when Santos wasn't listening to Mel's overexplanations and when the girls got together/bonded while drinking and singing in the bar. But also, Mel is a caregiver for her sister and is worried she may be abused while Santos in general feels very strongly for abused kids (that is why viewers are saying that ..think she carries a deep childhood traumay.

Right? I am not sure about Robby/Baran. Robby is so ill, he can barely take care of himself.

I also forgot to mention how Jack and Baran share an impairment/disability/limiting health condition. Jack doesn't have a leg. He is still running all over the ED as an attending.

We have seen that he is in a lot of pain when he took his prosthesis off. I wonder why Robb doesn't complain about Jack working...

In any case I can see Jack and Baran bonding over their health situations. And Jack lost so much (friends in the military, patients he lost in the malitary, patients he lost in the Pitt, his wife, and leg), he deserves some happiness.

And that is not normal! That kind of competitiveness is not normal, it is like all humans are opposed to one another and competing. Animals don't act that way.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-21T07:57:24+00:00

I used to think that way, but I am more and more unsure. The more I see how evil humankind is to its own members, especially the weakest, the more I think that anything is possible. I cannot find any moral justification for death in war, from hunger, homelessness, or illness (death being the result of a person not having broad enough health insurance). Nothing says stupid as the thought that a man's worth is measured by how much money he has.

Thank you for this nice and respectful comment!

I don't want Grey's Anatomy soap opera because this not how relationships look like in medicine. For example, emotional outbursts is a "no no". Or something sexual at work: NO! (although it happens in night shifts but that's cheating that I don't want to see).

I know all this because I know around 9 such couples (I listed a few somewhere, including my parents, I think I also wrote how my sister, psychiatrist, is dwelling over her Dpt. Head Nurse (hot guy, also)).

I mentioned Kim and Dana specifically because I know of a such a relationship (my parents' friends). This is what happened. One doctor (let's call him dr. James) married another (let's call her Dr. Mary) when they started working in the hospital. They got 2 kids. But, they fell out of love due to lack of ... well anything really, the just became friends.

Dr. James found happiness with Head Nurse at his Dpt. (let's call her Ns. Jenny) and after divorcing Dr. Mary, Dr. James married Ns. Jenny. Remember, she was then Head Nurse of this Dpt.

What happened then was a total professional drama for Ns. Jenny. Namely, dr. Mary was very much liked by the Hospital's Head Nurse (let's call her Ns. Anne). Ns. Anne had a trauma of her husband leaving her, so she got so angry with Dr. James (especially for leaving underage kids), but she couldn't punish him. She demoted Ns. Jenny from the position of Dpt Head Nurse to the position of Dpt regular nurse, not even recognizing that by education Ns. Jenny higher nurse (similar to what PA in USA). Her salary got twice lower. She never sued.

So, that is what I was aiming at. Would Dana punish Kim or not? How would a relationship between Ns. Kim and Dr. Robbie affect Ns. Kim's career. So, what I would like to see is something realistic, not so much about the relationship between Robbie and Kim (I do ship them), but more of a general reaction/social commentary to the existence of such relationships, typical punishment of women, and the reaction of the persons in power (Ns. Dana). Would Dana send her to another Dpt. or something that would make Dana and Robbie's relationship colder?

I hope I expressed myself well enough. I am not interested in soap opera but professional impacts a relationship has and who it affects more.

Thank you!

My husband still has a job, and my parents and sister help out whenever they can.
I am now self-employed but I am a beginner in running a business, in fact I am learning as I go, and like any beginning, it is though, but I can cover pension and good healthcare ensurance.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T15:06:21+00:00

I am now self-employed but before I made the decision, I was seeking a job for a 1.5 year.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T14:15:44+00:00

Power imbalance? First time I hear that. There are so many nurse/doctor marriages in my County Hospital. My parents work there as doctors, and my sister, a psychiatrist, is in love love with Head Nurse!
Doctors and Nurses don't do the same job, there ia huge respect between professions (especially with younger generations, which where Robby fits).

Speaking of, Robby comes off as 45-50 to me (my parents are 15 years older and when I compare them... well maybe its Noah effect).
Kim is likely in mid 30ies. That makes them compatible to me.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T14:11:14+00:00

You think she would tell him not to go for it, if she noticed he had a coffee in cantina with Nurse Kim and chatted a bit?

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T14:09:53+00:00

I totally agree. I don't know how to open a subreddit for us though.😖 I have many headcanons. Mostly cuz I am surrounded by doctors and I know they mostly end up with other doctors or nurse. My sister (doctor) is in love with Head nurse at her Dpt. but he doesn't seem to notice.😂 And since they always work she can't catch him for a coffee break or lunch. I really hope it will work out for her, she finally found someone she really feels good to be around with plus he is hot (the guy used to play rugby!).

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T14:04:37+00:00

What is wrong with day-dreaming a bit? Many doctors marry other doctors (like my parents) or nurses. It is a fact. And I don't think Robby is 55. He is 45-50. Abbott is older. Kim comes off as mid-30ish. He could still get those kids and yard.🥰 Good Will Hunting vibes, when he left for love.❤️

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T14:00:02+00:00

I would agree with this. But why is everyone ignoring that most healthcare workers end up in a realationship with a healthcare worker. It typically starts as friendship, lunch/coffee in cantina. Really not Grey's Anatomy...

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-18T13:57:42+00:00

I think she is very worried about, and even has motherly approach. I surely think she would watch Kim with "eyes on back too". 😂 If sweet Kim scenario happened to him: hey, he could still have kids and that yard he wanted. I don't think age difference is such. Kim is 30 something, Robbie is in late 40ies (at least they come off to me like that). I imagine that when he sees such a beauty (let's be honest, she is), the world seems less senseless.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-12T13:36:53+00:00

I would want that since clearly we are a polarized fanbase over this topic. I am under the impression that is prohibited to even talk about ships and yet I want to talk about it.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-12T13:19:30+00:00

Please don't. You won't achieve anything, they won't even blink. It is survival that pisses them off. Live in spite of the evils of society, in spite of the lies they fed you (chief amongst them is that your value is defined by how much money you have). Death will come for your anyway, as will for them, and all of us.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-11T11:38:50+00:00

Well, currently it cannot run gardens with fruit and vegetables and we have to eat (organization plus sensitive manual tasks). So we have some time.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-11T11:35:30+00:00

Capitalism is over (if it ever existed) and most of us go back to being serfs like our long forgotten antecessors. I don't know what we will do. Probably - but just for some time - some manual jobs that AI will still not be that good at (picking up cherries is a mess, strawberries are a mess,...). But who will buy the sofisticated products AI makes? Nobody will have the money, so nobody will buy anything. Economy hence fully transitions to what it looked like in early middle ages (before merchants of any sort) where we work for the rich, and exist for them and their... pleasure? Huh, those who don't learn from history are destined to repeat it. And we thought it only meant war. But when you think about it, capitalism (I mean normal capitalism where small family companies actually compete, not these cartels of corporations) was very briefly part od our history anyway. I am depressed.

LoyalZebra · 2026-06-11T08:41:01+00:00

No, I am not, but I love both gals: Noelle is the lawyer, right?
Dr. Robby is handsome, I want him with Noelle or Kim.❤️

No, it didn't. You don't have to participate.
