    S12.E23: At Last

    in Grey's Anatomy

    Maybe  the hook up is with Callie lol It seems like in every Calzona centric episode lately that Meredith and Callie are the ones who get closer…(1009, 1105, 1222). Perhaps they are the real endgame haha

    S12.E12: My Next Life

    in Grey's Anatomy

    Finally rewatched the episode. So I'll start with the things that I liked.
    As a MerDer shipper I'm honestly satisfied with the amount of Derek flashbacks we are getting. Some people on Twitter are complaining that they use Patrick to keep the ratings which is ridiculous because the ratings are doing just fine. Anyway, I'm glad they are not forgetting how important his character was to the show (even though they kind of said he was just a minor character lol) and having Patrick on my screen is always a plus. Oh and when they played "Into The Fire" my heart skipped a beat, it was such a nice throwback.
    On a shallow note isn't it strange how many Derek flashbacks we keep getting? I mean, if Patrick left in bad terms with Shonda I don't think they'd be using him so much. Izzie, for example, barely gets mentioned. Even Lexie and Mark don't get as many mentions (Lexie doesn't get any tbh), so I think this proves (or maybe I'm delusional) that Patrick left the show without any beefs with Shonda.
    I really enjoyed Meredith's patient. It's been a while since I cared about a patient on this show, so it was nice for a change.
    I LOVED seeing Katie Bryce again. It was really fun to watch and Amelia saying she was Meredith and Derek's surgical love child made me laugh haha
    I'm warming up to Nathan. I like Martin and he has good chemistry with the cast. I'll never stop shipping MerDer but since it's obvious that Nathan and Meredith will get paired up it's better if I just embrace it already. They even did a parallel with Nathan chasing Mer's tail this time (the first time it was Derek).
    Arizona was also really fun to watch. I'm glad she finally got some screen time, although it annoys me that she's always used for comedy relief. What I found interesting is that they are showing Arizona as a player but she's finding flaws with all the women, also she doesn't call any women by their names which shows she is not getting attached to anyone. For some odd reason I really want Calzona to get back together in the future (probably because they are the only couple left that I care about) and I like that she's not interested in getting into a relationship, she's just having fun and being slutty (her words, not mine).
    Maluca was very enjoyable this time. I think Kelly and Giacomo have good chemistry and they look cute together. I'm not super invested but they are fun. Arizona telling Richard that DeLuca's girlfriend is a screamer made me LOL. In fact I had a good laugh in a lot of scenes.
    April not telling Jackson she's pregnant is dumb, but I don't mind it. This is a drama show after all.
    Judge me all you want but I actually like Penny. I like her better than I like Jo and Stephanie. I don't know why, I just do. The scene with her going back and forth between Meredith and Amelia was so enjoyable. I don't want her to become a regular, but I'm sure it's happening so I'll embrace it.
    Loved the scene with all the guys talking about their issues. It's been a while since we got a scene with the guys. I remember I used to love watching Derek, Mark and Owen together and I'm glad they are putting the guys together again. It's specially good for Jackson who apparently doesn't have any friends besides Ben.

    So we finally found out what happened to Owen's sister, huh? Well well well, it's interesting that he blames Nathan for letting Megan get into the helicopter when he actually did the same thing. Plane to Idaho, anyone? Owen is such a hypocrite. I was trying to be on Owen's side but after finding out what happened I just gave up on him entirely. 
    This episode really reminded me of fetus Grey's and that's why I liked it so much :)

    As for Jolex and Omelia:

    Spoilers and Spoiler Speculation: Benchmarking

    in Grey's Anatomy

    What I find interesting is Shonda's apparent lack of interest in Grey's. Yesterday I decided not to watch the episode live (still haven't seen it until now) but I was on Twitter to watch the reactions and Shonda is a lot more active when Scandal starts. She tweets one thing or two Grey's related and then it's all Scandal. That show is clearly her baby. I, for one, cannot stand Scandal and didn't even give HTGAWM a try.

    I agree with everything you guys said. Tbh since season 9 the show has gone downhill. I'm doing a rewatch with my mom and we are currently in season 2. So many things were different that it feels like a complete different show now. One of the things I noticed is how the show used to have actual comedy, we used to laugh (at least I used to) in some scenes. Even the sound effects were good and helped the comic scenes. This scene for example:

    Aside from Sandra's amazing acting can you guys hear the song playing? Those songs used to play all the time and they brought life to the show. Now the scenes have a weird silence and then all of sudden awful music covers start playing. The insert song scenes made sense before but it's like they forgot how to do it now.

    This is one of many things that have changed.

    S12.E10: All I Want Is You

    in Grey's Anatomy

    The episode was nice. I was expecting something awful after reading spoilers, but I liked it.

    I found that girl really annoying, though. I didn't feel sorry for her or her mom at all and I was expecting something really bad to happen to her, but she was okay in the end. Anyway, Alex is such a good doctor. I wish I had a doctor like him when I was younger. Such a great man.

    I loved how Meredith was gossiping about everyone to her therapist. I used to do the same thing with my therapist. I would totally avoid my issues and just talk about my friends and family lol not the healthiest thing to do but it was very nice haha

    I find it so funny how so many people are against Merlex. I don't ship them but I'm not against this ship either. I've watched so many stories of best friends/almost siblings falling in love and I shipped it most of the times so I guess I'd be okay with Merlex if it were to happen, which I doubt.

    Callie and Penny kissing was the most disturbing scene of the night. So awkward. I wish I could unsee that.

    The scene with Nathan and Owen doing that surgery together was really well done, I loved it. I even liked Nathan this episode.

    I wish I didn't have to see Jo, Steph, Penny and Ben hanging out because I really don't care about their friendship. It seems so forced.

    Arizona needs more screen time! 

    Maggie and DeLuca were kinda cute, but I'm not interested.

    Overall it was a good episode. Nothing great, but a good one.

    ABC Chief Paul Lee Forced Out, Channing Dungey Named Entertaiment President

     

    Not really a speculation but I thought I'd put this here.  ABC has a new President of Entertainment, who apparently has a good established relationship with Shonda.  THR (above) is calling her "the Shonda Rhimes' whisperer".  I don't think there was ever any doubt ABC would cancel Grey's, but I think this new President of ABC Entertainment solidifies we'll be seeing a lot more of GA (and other Shonda shows) in the future.

    I was about to post a similar article :P

    http://tvline.com/2016/02/17/paul-lee-abc-president-quits-leaving/

    I found this part interesting " Lee “resigned on Wednesday after losing a power struggle with a higher-ranking executive,” "

    S12.E09: The Sound Of Silence

    in Grey's Anatomy

    Agreed. I found her oddly detached. She really was just another doctor on the case. 

    The worst was Bailey who was more concerned about Meredith possibly suing the hospital than her well-being. 

     

    On the other hand, I was afraid they were going to go all OTT with everyone's affection for Meredith, but it wasn't like that. 

    I think this whole thing just proves how artificial their relationship is. Even Arizona acted warmer and they are not even close.

    in Grey's Anatomy

    I agree. I do miss Cristina but the actress left the show. If she was living off screen in Seattle it would be one thing but she's halfway around the world. I figured that Alex, Bailey or Owen let Cristina know what happened. Meredith's injuries weren't life threatening, she was getting the medical care she needed and she was surrounded by people who care about her. In real life people can't always drop everything and run when something awful happens to people they love so I don't view this as anything different. We know that Meredith and Cristina speak on the phone/facetime so I just assumed Cristina was in touch and giving some emotional support. Its been almost 2 years Grey's time since Cristina left and Meredith's life has gone on without her.

     

    I don't think Amelia or Maggie were added to replace Cristina. The person role was given to Alex (why he's had no story for 2 seasons). IMO Amelia was added for neuro cases and to keep a Shepherd connection and Maggie to give Meredith a biological family member.

    So true. My uncle and my grandpa passed away and I couldn't make it to their funerals because I was halfway across the country. It doesn't mean I didn't care, but it was impossible for me to come at that time.

    I might get hate for this but I really really really think we should let go of Cristina. She's gone. Sandra left the show. She's not coming back any time soon if ever. Maybe I'm the only one but I don't miss her that much. I actually miss Lexie more than I miss Cristina, because in the Grey's world we know Cristina is still in touch with Meredith and that's enough for me, while Lexie, for example, is not even mentioned as if Meredith has never had another sister. Plus, even though I loved Mertina I admit their relationship was very toxic most of the times.

    S12.E09: The Sound Of Silence

    in Grey's Anatomy

    The episode was okay. Ellen and Justin were amazing and Denzel's directing was great, the man has some real talent.

    There are several things I didn't like about the episode, though. Several. I really didn't want to say this but I honestly think this season has lost its track after episode 5. At this point I don't even understand what they are trying to do. It's so confusing and contrived. 

    Last night was a real bummer, imo. 

    Things I liked: Merlex, Mer with her kids, Merzona scene (finally!!!!!).

     

    I didn't quite get what was up with the end of the scene where Bailey originally broached Lou's wanting to apologize and Meredith kicking them out of the room. As they were out of sight in the hallway, Bailey was talking about how the last time Meredith was hurt working for the hospital, she bought the hospital, and what did (whoever) think would happen if she saw Lou? I thought it was Callie who answered, "nothing good," but Callie was definitely part of the group leaving the room together. That just struck me as odd, since it wasn't that simple (she was one of six, they sued everyone, and the hospital/Owen/last minute Arizona had screwed up in a way that insurance didn't cover what the court ruled for them, and they only bought the hospital to save it from the unexpected ruin/fallout) and, uh, Callie was one of the people she was talking to, who did the exact same thing on Mark/Sofia's behalf. Other than trying to set up Webber's talk to her about forgiveness ("Meredith holds grudges! She bought the hospital!"), it just seemed neither here nor there.

    THIS! What was the meaning of this scene? Odd.

    "Usually an episode is covering a day or two at most, we're seeing weeks and months go by, and different stages of her recovery," he said. "So you really get to see a lot of passage of time and the changing of a lot of relationships throughout that time while waiting for Meredith to heal."

    So we'll get a huge time jump again. I think it's 2089 by now. Just kidding :P

    Calzona, MerDer, Crowen - three of the strongest couples on Greys as they used to be. All turned  to dust for various reasons. Sad.

    But with MerDer and Crowen it kind of had a reason to end: one of the actors wanted out, it's not the same with Calzona. That's why the shippers suffer so much. Callie and Arizona barely talk to each other now, it's so weird. At this point I can't see them going back together.
