I got so excited when they actually addressed something about the Navy and thought they would go undercover, then was disappointed. Mind you, in all reality, Roundtree is the only one young enough these days to pass as someone in one of the positions someone would have had to go undercover in, and his hair is so not Navy issue that I realised it wouldn't happen. Sam and Callen are too old to be anything other than a higher rank and Deeks has always played a civilian. So I was disappointed yet again. Maybe I need to binge watch early seasons for the next week and a half until I have to go back to work...

Well that was not so festive.
I almost fell off my recliner chair when it started with Meredith with her kids. That was out of the ordinary. I fully expected Nick to walk out too. Please don't let her be pregnant. We don't need another Meredith has pregnancy/birth issues episode. 2 are enough.
Most of it felt so "blah" for me. The new resident showed so much promise last week, to be sucking up to Bailey this. Helm happily threw Schmidt under a bus, let's hope the bus takes him out and we are rid of his annoyingness. I saw something between Meredith and Hayes, and then they left it at that, that was disappointing. If Maggie and Amelia (as heads of departments) are so against the Webber method, why don't they stop it, surely, they would have some say?
The actual cliffhangers, well, they at least are cliffhangers. I don't mind Owen, when he isn't in a relationship and self-sabotaging it. There are others I would happily see "die" and leave the show before him. Schmidt being one. Why were 2 or 3 department heads all picking up an organ? (is Teddy a head of department still?) I felt Linc's heart break watching that scene. It was so sad. I still maintain Linc and Amelia belong together, they were all that kept me watching at times last season. To tear that apart now, it frustrates me to no end.
I can't believe I am asking this, but are Ben and Bailey fighting Dean's parents (or the mother's family) for custody of little Pru?
I really should go back to watching season 2, it is much more cohesive and even though it is "out there", I like it so much more. Getting close to cutting L-Vad wires.... :D

I don't get it, Meredith and Amelia are in somewhere else (Minnesota? If it is Minnesota, is this where Cristina worked at the start of Season 8? The scrubs are the same colour), Maggie is in Boston with her dad, who is watching Meredith's 3 children? Zola is only 12-ish, she can't do it alone.
How is Nick going to feel when he discovers Meredith stole his best resident to work under Bailey? All I can say is at least there is a decent resident at Grey Sloan and not the incompetent Schmidt and the drooling Hellmouth. He is even pretty to look at - maybe to replace Jackson?
Maggie used to annoy me to tears, but I really like her evolvement.
I don't like Jo and Link. While I am tolerating Nick and Meredith, I think I would prefer Meredith with McIrish, but if she can't have him, maybe Jo over Owen's sister. Link belongs with Amelia! Last season, they were the stable couple who held Grey's together for me, I hate that they are pairing them with others. I personally would like a new interest for Jo altogether.

Well, I missed the end because my husband came and wanted to chat, so I didn't see them waltz off into the sunset (so to speak) and head off to London, but I surprisingly enjoyed that episode while I did our folding. There was no over the top anything and I wasn't overwhelmed with the Floyd and Lyn rubbish, right up until the "surprise" pregnancy. Seriously, really? We have to go through that crap now? Geez I hope it is the husbands!
Bloom has to have consequences, even if it is only relationship ones, but she better have consequences!
-
Amelia and Link - YES! One gigantic YES! They make such a great couple, if only there wasn't this, "We must get married," stigma hanging over their heads. They are so in tune in every other way. I wish we heard the reply to the question, "What is sex?" from Bailey, that would have been at least funny, for sure. I hope that little romp on the couch at the end doesn't lead to another pregnancy. There is more to this relationship than babies and looking after Meredith's kids.
I am one of the ones who shipped Mer and McIrish. Cristina sent him for a reason, I actually liked them together. I find this Minnesota storyline strange. I still question why a general surgeon would be heading up a Parkinson trial. Amelia, sure, but Meredith? I know she had an interest in neuro a long time ago, but her only dabbling in it once she became an attending was on the plane with Riggs in the turbulence episode.
Am really disliking the Owen's sister storyline, I handled her ok when she was on last time, but maybe because other people were still around and despite all of it, the other storylines were stronger, but add to the fact I like Hayes with Meredith and I just don't seem to connect with it at all, While I don't want Farrouk to die, I really don't otherwise care too much about it,
I didn't really seem to get why Teddy insisted on staying and Owen had to go home, but then neither of them are really appealing (it feels like I need to fast forward parts of Grey's these days but I am in until the end, I've watched it from the beginning).Glasses is boring, his mother brought in this huge feast, spent a huge amount of time with Nico, but when it came to everyone eating it, wasn't there (even if she was as annoying as Glasses).
How cute is Luna? She is a very sweet looking baby. Jo's hair looks even more ridiculous. I do like her with darker hair, Since when do residents get to choose their scrub hats? She didn't have the regulation light blue resident scrub cap on in this episode, she had her old attending one on. I really don't want anything to happen with Jo and Link.
I really never thought I would say this, but I miss Maggie. She used to drive me nuts, but I really seem to like her these days, and I do think Winston is hot, and a good fit for her too.

It's like every other episode is a "crossover event" now. If neither of the shows can have strong enough storylines independently of each other, they both need to be canceled.
I enjoyed watching Greg Germann antagonize Peter Gallagher, but the Minnesota plot is still a dud. I really liked E.R. Fightmaster on Shrill, but their performance on Grey's so far doesn't do anything for me.
What exactly does Scott Speedman's character do? I thought he was a doctor but we've never seen him practice medicine. Is he an administrator? Also, I remember that he appeared on the show many years ago and that's how he and Meredith know each other, but I'm completely blanking on what his storyline was back then. Did Meredith save his life and he's carried a torch for her ever since? If so, ew.
I thought Scott Speedman's character was a transplant specialist. He was helping with a transplant at Seattle Grace, whether it was harvesting an organ or picking it up. I can't recall, but he collapsed as he had returned to work very soon after having a kidney transplant himself.
I love the Tom character with anyone other than Teddy and Owen. I actually liked him with Teddy initially, until the writers decided to pair her with both him and Owen, Tom had so much potential. It was nice to see him in Minnesota - the rest of Minnesota was beyond boring.
The cross over events are boring. They could have at least had a mass trauma event, but then again, there would have been no Bailey drama, as she would have been operating, and with Mer and Amelia in Minnesota and Maggie out of action too, who was going to operate?
I don't see the point of having Meghan stay. What is her specialty? I would far rather prefer Mer with McWidow. Their split was very lamely done. I loved the idea of Cristina sending the perfect man to Meredith. Then again, I loved her with Riggs. Splitting Meghan and Riggs just disappointed me. They brought her back from the dead, split up him and Mer, had them move away and then she comes back without him, telling us they were broken up.
I think I would have preferred Jo with McWidow rather than pairing her with Link, because Link and Amelia were my favourite couple last season. The potential pairing of Amelia with the non-binary doctor is disappointing. I am surprised at Tom's tact, or even that he had the tact to not mention Link and her family again. That was so out of character.
I never thought I would say that I missed Maggie, but I am.

I just rewatched Season 9, episode 10 (Bailey and Ben's wedding - the second episode), why did Bailey and Meredith operate on Adele? I would have thought that Cristina should have, considering it was an aneurism.
-
I agree with most of the comments above. DId anyone seem to feel that the investigator guy is going to be a romantic interest for Fatima? Why must they insist on romantic relationships? The first couple of seasons were awesome without knowing too much of their backgrounds and watching undercover ops.

Well, I finally managed to watch this episode. It was underwhelming. I was so hopeful after last weeks' episode, I was wishing for more undercover work. This was bland and uneventful. Blah! I shouldn't have bothered.
I never thought I would miss Beale and Nell, as they had become annoying, but Fatima and her interactions with Kilbride are on a worse level. It just feels so wrong. -
What a load of rubbish this episode was. Did they honestly think that putting Floyd and his lady friend and her husband at a table together, in a restaurant of sorts, was going to go smoothly? It may have for "show" sake at the restaurant, but as if they were going to get on after that. Did Floyd think it would all work out?
Bloom was ridiculous, did she really think that she wouldn't be caught out for bribing to keep Layla there? This donating money is going to spiral down fast if Fuentes stays much longer, and obviously, Layla is going to find out.
I was very concerned watching Iggy, it is bad when your secretary is doing your job, for you. Surely, that is a warning sign that you need HELP!
I am still waiting for the Max and Helen causing havoc episode. So far, since promising it, they have been beyond underwhelming. They've been pretty much boring. I can not believe that Helen didn't think that one of her other units would have to close if she wanted the sickle cell clinic reopened.
There's way more, but I watched this episode yesterday afternoon and after a shocking night of very little sleep, my coherency is gone.

the only thing I even kind of liked about this one was they did something undercover, dogdy, ofcourse, but undercover all the same. The whole Kilbride thing kind of stunk of how Granger investigated Kensi not long after he arrived, as if Kilbride was sussing out how Sam and Callen would deal with it all. It's like they have run out of things to investigate, everything is so tenuously (so very loosely tenuously) linked to the Navy. At least the mothership still deals with Navy issues.
-
is there a reason why there isn't an episode 3 thread yet?
-
oh wow, this is going down hill fast. I loved the 2 old guys, their storyline was decent, but the rest, underwhelming isn't even the best word to describe it.
Helen, making a kids lunch is not hard, especially when it is just a simple sandwich, surely you have made one before? I kind of tuned out after that with Helen and Max, and had started writing this before the last bit of them together at the end of the episode.I am guessing Max's "yes" day was him creating the havoc that he and Helen planned a couple of episodes back, but seriously, havoc only happens if Fuentes is around to have some sort of reaction.
I didn't get the Iggy patient thing, first he seemed against their marriage, then he seemed to support it as soon as their family were against it? I may have missed something because my 12 year old was trying to talk to me while I was watching part of it this morning.
Floyd and Lyn, who gives a rat's rectum? This relationship just seems wrong to me on way too many fronts, just based on Floyd's history (see below).
When I see Blume and Casey the nurse together, I think the writers would have been better off heading down the route of these 2 being together, rather than putting her with the intern. There seems more chemistry there.
While I have no issues with diverse relationships, I find NA seems to be pushing it bigtime right now: Iggy the gay doctor, Blume the lesbian doctor, we have the interracial relationship with Helen and Max, the married doctor and Floyd in an open relationship. When are the majority represented? I get the majority have always been represented and the minority deserve representation, but this isn't proportional. I love the idea of Max and Helen together, they've had this chemistry that screams they belong together, even though the writers are doing a crap job at the moment. But, like someone said above, Floyd always said (to Blume), he wanted to be in a relationship with a black woman because he wanted to have kids with her, and this is not a relationship where that will happen. Iggy and his partner are lovely, and maybe because they haven't changed the story for him, it doesn't frustrate me the way the writers have chopped and changed with Blume and Floyd. While the Blume relationship gave reason to address her issues with Iggy, this could have happened with anyone she was paired with. I just don't know. It is grating on me somehow. I hope this hasn't offended anyone with this, it is what I have seen changing over the last season or so.

Having Addison for just two episodes was a tease. There seemed to be some sort of calm when she was around, even when she was upset, everything still seemed like it was going to be ok. I really loved the Addison and Amelia interaction, but I would have liked some more with Meredith too.
I cannot believe Meredith went along with Webber's very Minnick like idea, especially considering she hated it the first time and caused so many problems last time that she was stood down from work for a while because of her protesting and refusing to let it happen in her OR, and then Bailey was the one who argued, very feebly, against it. You would have thought even Catherine would have had the balls to say it was a dumb idea, seeing Minnick was her idea. Evidently, who ever wrote this episode hadn't seen season (my guess) 14ish when Minnick was around and how poorly it all played out?
Has Luna gotten smaller? Jo (hair still looks ridiculous, btw) looked like she was holding a small newborn when she was nursing her in this episode. I get with covid, they can't or won't use real babies, but if you can't use something the right size, talk about something that has happened off screen, it's better than having a baby get smaller when you go and use an automated one!
I liked Megan the first time around, well, I liked the storyline, tolerated the actress. She seems to be pure filler when she is on, I don't get why she didn't just ask Hayes about her son, rather than some hypothetical first. It seemed like it was pushed just for a "flirting" with Hayes part first. Blah, blah, blah. Hayes still is better with Meredith. Forget Scott Speedman, that just feels wrong to me.
Is it bad I skipped the Owen bits? I get that there is importance in addressing the cause, but Grey's seems to be pushing every cause, rather that just being out for entertainment. I just feel there needs to be some balance.
Now that Addie has gone, how long before we get another OG's cast member back? Hopefully the next one will slide back into Grey-Sloan with as much ease and bring a sense of nostalgia too. I wish she stayed longer.

omg, if I had had a drink when I saw the NAH, I think I would have spat it out! It was priceless and probably my only highlight of the episode. I thought Max and Helen were going to raise hell in their last 6 weeks. They didn't do anything! Why, oh why, did they get my hopes up? No one else has excited me on this show this season. It was all I was holding on to.
Such a poor episode.

Roundtree seemed like window dressing in this episode. The wardrobe for undercover ops seems a little outdated, since they never seem to do any these days. If only it they still did undercover.
While the storyline was valid, it was such a boring episode. I don't even have suggestions for improvement.

My husband and I are old, and neither of us think Linc is right. Marriage doesn't really mean anything anymore, as so many people divorce. We also don't understand why it has to be marriage or break up. Why can't he leave it alone and just be happy to be together.
If someone would like to explain his side WITHOUT bringing religion into it, I'd like to hear it.
My guess is he sees it as commitment, his parents marriage disintegrated with his cancer, but he wants something that is finite, and I guess he doesn't want just a relationship. It's a pity, I just think they are good together, it's been the first relationship Amelia seemed to shine in, she was still herself, but had a two-way, relaxed relationship where there was mutual respect.

Don’t tell me Krista put a pin in Amelia and Link so that Amelia can have a fling with the non binary doctor in Minnesota. 🙄
I had that thought too, except I forgot she was non-binary. I am hoping Addie and Amelia will have a heart to heart and she will tell Amelia she is walking away from a good thing and she will realise and go back to Link (and hopefully he will take her back).

I really didn't realise how much I missed Addison. The elevator was sweet. It kind of screamed Derek and Bailey, when they had each others' backs. The ending where Addie met Zola and Bailey was cute as.
The interns +Helm and Schmidt, they suck. They lack everything that all the previous interns had. Helm and her idolisation of Meredith is becoming beyond boring, she needs to move on. Schmidt is annoying. Putting him in the surgery was cruel when there was Jo, a whatever she is resident, ready to help and she has far more skills and intelligence than Schmidt and could have her name on the Catherine Fox award as she had to have it removed off Meredith's.
I really like Meredith with McWidow. I think they are "easy and comfortable" with each other.
Amelia and Link are just wrong. They belong together. Maybe Addison will help them reunite? Maybe I am dreaming.
Teddy, what were you thinking? Beanies in a heatwave? Mental!
Winston and Owen doing a kidney transplant in Ben's mobile hospital was clever, and I love how the patient kept trying to find a partner.
I can't believe Meredith hasn't told Bailey about her new job yet, I would have thought that would be a priority, considering the hospital are down so many staff. Knowing how Grey's goes, Richard will probably spill the beans before Meredith does and then we will have to deal with Bailey feeling angry at Meredith, blah, blah, blah.
I wonder how long Addie will stay for?

I didn't think much of this episode, haven't seen the promo for the next, really hate the Floyd and married Doctor, I don't even know her name and don't really care.
However, as everything else is going to crap, I am surprisingly looking forward to whatever Max and Helen can get up to in the next 5 weeks.
The only other thing that jumped out at me was did I see the young doctor who replaced Kapoor tonight?

I am glad I am not the only one thinking, "Why bring up Callen's past now?" Surely, this should have all been bought up years ago, when Callen was trying to find out his past? It just doesn't seem to fit. I get Callen's frustration, I just think it is something like 6 or 7 years too late, minimum.
I wish the Joelle storyline was way beyond gone. I really dislike her these days. She also walks far too well for someone with an amputated leg. At least when Arizona lost a leg on Grey's Anatomy, she limped for a fair while. Joelle adjusted very fast. Sam shoving Joelle through the hatch was hilarious and so timely.
"Is there some women who kill dating site out there that I don't know about or do you just have the world's worst luck with dating?" comment is hilarious. Kilbride at least has some good comebacks.
I so wish they would go back to doing undercover stories.
I never thought I would say this so early, but I miss Nell and Beale.
Non-lethal....that's gold.

They must have some reason for why this is happening in Minnesota, becasue there is zero reason the writers couldn't have written this lab story in Seattle. Parkinson's guy could have been a tech millionaire or doctor in Seattle. He never had to be from or located in Minneapolis in the first place.
I think they set it in Minnesota so she could meet up with Dr Nick Marsh again. Mind you, they could have just had him come into to Grey-Sloan for another organ transplant.

Yes, I think she got confused (how?) and stuck them in the wrong places.

And he was with Amelia when that happened and she was very involved in his care, but now she seems to no longer have any relationship with Leo at all.
They all had Christmas together last season at Meredith's house, Link was planning to propose to Amelia and Owen had a snow machine in the back yard and proposed to Teddy in stead. Link sadly put his engagement ring away. I think that was the last time we saw Amelia with Leo and I am sure they organised Christmas together so Leo could spend Christmas with both Owen and Amelia.

I really want Meredith with Hayes, Cristina sent him! Her twisted sister that knew her better than anyone else. I don't know, but this relationship with Nick is feeling forced. Almost trite. I don't want to see Hayes with Megan, they say she isn't staying. I know, things can change, but still.
The Olympics between the interns, also seemed a waste. I think they need to boot this lot and write some that have some backbone and are prepared to lay their ass on the line for their patients. Helm spends too much time drooling over Grey, Glasses is a dweeb who seems fully inept at times and the new ones haven't had enough time spent on them, but to be whining about early starts, well they seem poorly written too.
I loved Amelia in this episode, she seemed so unAmelia. What I don't understand is Meredith's role in the study, Did I miss something last week? I only watched it once. I also don't like the fact that Meredith is flying away from her kids once a week. Does this mean we will have to see her get together with Nick every week when she visits?
I really like Winston too. He was such a great advocate for his patient. Also grateful the texting with Maggie stopped before we had to read sexting. 🙃
While I still can't fathom how Owen and Teddy can trust each other, I didn't really mind their interactions together in this episode.
Have to say, I am looking forward to next week's episode too 😁

S13.E08: A Land of Wolves
in NCIS: Los Angeles
Wow, there was so many different ways this could be taken, but no, tptb did the predictable - introduce a new agent, Kensi goes missing, Deeks flips out then regains his cool and helps (in this case Sam) save the day. The Fatima not sure about being in the field is very reminiscent of Nell. Surely, they have better ideas out there somewhere?
The ending with Kilbride including him self in not being a superhero was a bit rich, yes, we know he was an Admiral, but we have no history about his past feats, not to mention him recommending drinking as a way to deal with what she went through during the day. And like everyone else, I see K and D at least fostering Rosa in the foreseeable future, even if it is just until relatives are found.
Luckily, it wasn't super boring, or I would have switched off earlier. At least there was mention of undercover work again, I just wish there was more.
