I actually liked Riggs this episode, first time ever, so... good job, I guess? The pacing was good, and except for Amelia going home with Owen, I loved everything.

BaseOps October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 I'm so loving the more mature, fast-paced fun of this season versus the slow, dark, broody series that Grey's turned into last year. The writing is really great, managing to organically give good moments to nearly every character each episode. They're slowly building lots of side plots (Ben the firefighter, Jo and her husband, new interns, Jackson and the foundation, Arizona / DeLuca's sister, etc.) while the main plot gets focus, rather than just abandoning characters for several episodes at a time. AND we're getting unique character combos, which is great - like the small moment of comedy between Alex and Jackson, or the nice new mentor / student bond with Amelia and DeLuca. Meredith is a total badass. I'm so glad to see her written as a mature, competent, complex woman and surgeon. I also love how much history they're referencing this year, which is perhaps the shows biggest strength. I'm so glad they're utilizing the rich history of all the characters. 18 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/62441-s14e04-aint-that-a-kick-in-the-head/#findComment-3717175

bybrandy October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 I could care less that they are step siblings since they didn't grow up together and Richard and Maggie only a little bit have a father/daughter relationship anyway... But I don't love them together, in part because I still ship Jackson and April and partly because I just don't buy them as a couple That said? "You could buy an island. You could buy two islands and make them fight!" my favorite line of the whole night. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/62441-s14e04-aint-that-a-kick-in-the-head/#findComment-3717707
