One-mode undirected network of characters hook-ups on Grey's Anatomy TV show

Description

Grey's Anatomy is an American medical drama television series running on ABC since 2005. It focuses on the personal and professional lives of surgical interns, residents, and attendings at Seattle Grace Hospital, later renamed as the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Gary Weissman collected data on the sexual contacts between characters on the television show through observation of the story lines in the episodes and fan pages, and this data was extended by Benjamin Lind including nodal attributes:

  • 'name': first and, where available, surname

  • 'sex': F for female and M for male

  • 'race': White, Black, or Other

  • 'birthyear': year born (some missing data)

  • 'position': "Chief", "Attending", "Resident", "Intern", "Nurse", "Non-Staff", "Other"

  • 'season': season that the character joined the show

  • 'sign': character's astrological starsign, if known

The data is current up to (I think?) season 10?
