For 15 seasons Ellen Pompeo<\/a><\/strong> has been on a medical drama, Grey’s Anatomy<\/em>, which just became the longest-running primetime medical drama in American TV history<\/a>\u2026despite the fact that the genre makes her nervous. Pompeo stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/em> to celebrate Grey’s<\/em> beating ER<\/em>‘s record and revealed she never watched the NBC series that preceded hers.<\/p>\n

“I never watched it\u2014it’s so funny\u2013because medical shows make me too anxious,” she said. So, what about her own show? “Sometimes, but not lately,” she said.<\/p>\n

While host Jimmy Kimmel<\/a><\/strong> has seen roughly 100 episodes of Grey’s Anatomy<\/em>‘s 332 installments, Pompeo said she puts her average viewings around 60 percent.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“I do it in waves,” she admitted. “It’s too much of me. Same reason my husband says, \u2018I can’t watch\u2014I get you all day. It’s too much.'”<\/p>\n

So, how much of the 332 hours of television does Pompeo recall? Kimmel put her to the test and quizzed the actor-producer on plots, so real, some fake. Did a Honduran caravan take over the hospital? Was Grey Sloan Memorial taken over by zombies? Did Meredith Grey contemplate dentistry? Did the doctors save a divorced couple stuck together during intercourse? Did a fish swim into a man’s penis? Pompeo’s knowledge is put to the test.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
