PERFECTO grey's show for me.

loved jealous chief and the 10 year plan. mark was friggin hilarious with bailey and the right now plan. his last scene cracked me up. i always appreciate the mark/merideth stuff. so, i liked them too, especially her little pep talk at the end. it's funny, i did think he was rescuing her initially.

the first time i watched alex and the purple lady. they were sweet. i kind of resent them going there with alex/addison. either do something about it, or forget it.

christina and burke, i can't say enough about these two. her be kind, rewind plan was too funny. but that last scene was perfection, and classsically them. when she climbed over him i cracked up. great last scene.

mer/der. i REALLY loved him looking out for her, and thought it was genuine concern for her, from him, and didn't like her reaction at all. i thought it was too much, but i got over it fairly quickly. i LOVED the talk derek/chief had. patrick is soooooooo good. i thought the little smile and eyebrow raise between derek/mer was sweet, and then that last scene. they are clearly taking his emotions somewhere. i thought it was interesting when she asked him straight out, he didn't say. but DAMNNNNNNNN that was the hottest countdown since dick clark. they were overdue for a hot little moment, and i loved it.

izzie and george. they are what i think grey's is just going to be known for for me. making me intrigued, with things i'd never thought i would be. as my friend said, 3 episodes ago, we would have said hell no to george and izzie. then they had the scene in the linene closet, that basically turned us. GREAT stuff from them tonight. they handled all the emotions well. george clearly had the longest hangover in life, but tr and katie brought it. i think i might be onboard.

to top it all off, the medical stuff was wrapped up beautifully. loved izzie's speech to the girl, and loved christina telling him to follow the steps and concentrate on the other foot, and the ava stuff was touching.

classic grey's epi for me. i think i'm officially over the ferryboat debacle of 07.

Did they not show the shirtless McSteamy? If so...I missed it.

Mer/Der stuff was AMAZING! Love how they can be mad @ each other 1 sec...and then next they are all lovely dovey..LOVE IT!

Mark was def. the best tonight. I loved the RIGHT NOW that he stol from Bailey!
His little thing with Derek was awesome to see as well.

Izzie is blah. I have lost all respect for her...and I think Callie really needs to know, just so, I can see her go off on Izzie.

All in all..best GA episode in a long time. Loved it all.

thegreenlight · 03-22-2007, 07:35 PM

I still think Mark is an ass. Using Mer and stealing Bailey's plan? Not cool, dude.

MerDer was insane this episode. I loved every second of their scenes.

And, the countdown was hilarious.

I didn't have a problem with the idea of George/Izzie last week, but it felt kind of disgusting to me this week. So, no George/Izzie lovin' from me.

The medical storylines haven't stood out for me in a looooooong time. Like, S1 long. I pretty much remember every medical storyline in every S1 episode, but I honestly don't remember any from this season.

ETA: Yes, Izzie sucks. Everytime she speaks I keep thinking, "Can you just shut the hell up?"

BrucasForever<3 · 03-22-2007, 07:40 PM

I loved the Countdown. I will have a new found respect for countdowns!

Aw....Mark is an ass. But how can you not love him.

No George/Izzie at all. Makes me sick.

I agree about Izzie talking - I was like..Why hasn't Callie knocked you out yet!

I just don't see it. Ooh, in this episode when he tried to do the whole McDreamy leaning/smoldering look thing? I was like, "Nice try, but, sorry." You have to agree with me that nobody can pull that off except for McDreamy...

I do agree with that.

Seriously? I didn't like Mark until lately!

I know. I was waiting for that. I wanted to see Shirtless Mark!!!!

Tanique33 · 03-22-2007, 08:13 PM

hmm, i dont' get mark being an ass, as he explained why he did what he did. yes there might have been some using, but i also think he tried to rescue her in teh moment. so i suppose its subjective. but i certainly didn't get him being an ass. and it worked. she got to do an amazing procedure.

and i so wish i could agree with you on the smoldering thing, too. but eric is just as effective for me, as are lots of other people, now that i come to think about it. lol.

hmm, serious feelings against izzie, interesting. i'd also hope when it comes out, callie has words for the person she's married to first. that is the one thing abou this all, i'm nto down with, the fact that he is married. i certainly can't condone that. although ultimately, i'll probably get over it like i did when derek cheated on addison with mer.

BrucasForever<3 · 03-22-2007, 08:22 PM

Oh. Callie needs to go off on George and Izzie. I haven't really liked Izzie since end of season 2..just something about her makes me mad!

Tanique33 · 03-22-2007, 08:25 PM

that's cool. we can't all like everyone. i can't stand callie. ultimately, im not sure they'll show her go off. but we'll find out.
