ALL THE SHADES OF GREY...............................................................................
Talk about set-up episode. Don't get me wrong, tonight's episode was awesome, but it's so obvious that "Desire" was used as a last-minute resort to set up any changes made to the final 3 episodes of the season - Gizzie love, Addison moving to LA, etc. I did love tonight's episode, however. The Addisex hook-up, or what we saw of it, was hot. The Mark/Meredith encounter kinda freaked me out though. I was like "Oh God..." But thankfully Mer was smart. Derek, on the other hand, has gone from Mc-Total-Dreamy to McAss. Seriously! I mean, I do like the fact that he's addressing that Meredith didn't try to save herself. But give the girl some credit. She's trying. She's changed. Right? She was communicating! She was getting naked in his freaking bed! They had McSex for God's sake! But at least this problem is realistic and addressing pleas of the fans. I do like that. The cake thing cracked me up tonight. I feel so sorry for the actors for having to eat cake non-stop for eight consecutive days, but the whole storyline made me laugh. The fish-in-the-penis storyline, while I thought it was hilarious (and kinda gross), seemed to play a little too much off of the Gizzie affair. And, seriously, WTF? George transferring to Mercy West? Uh, HELLO! I don't think - no, I KNOW he won't go, but still. This concerns me. But, did you notice? Izzie kisses George in the next episode! Wait - not time to discuss "The Other Side of This Life" promo yet. Back to "Desire." Yah. At first, I thought the whole Mer communicating thing was cute. And so Meredith. And then it started to annoy me. But then, it made sense and was totally cute - no, not cute, hot. God do I love her. I think it's a little bit scary how much I love Mer. Callie...I just don't even know how to feel about Callie. I didn't like her at all during Season Two, and I loved her in Season Three pretty much up until around the time Gizzie slept together. Now I just don't like her again for some reason. So, while I feel sorry for her, at the same time I don't. Oh well. And Bailey. God I hated how Richard and Sydney kept bitching about her tonight. She's obviously one of the best surgeons in that hospital. But Richard's last line to her tonight does make me wonder - will Bailey have marital problems next season? Sounds like a lot of shake-ups are already in the works for Season Four.
OK, now onto the promo for "The Other Side of This Life." This is the episode we cannot wait to see. TWO FREAKING HOURS. Addison in LA with the hot cast of her new show. Meredith freaking getting SLAPPED by HER DAD. [Hopefully McAss will turn back into McDreamy based off that fact.] Trying on wedding dresses! Oh man, next week is going to be the freakin' bomb and I cannot wait for it. Grey's has only got 4 hours left on the air this season, and they're making sure they're going to be great ones. Way to go Shonda. Way to go.

wonderful. amazing. perfect. and then "i don't want to breathe for you." that jerk. that freak. that man that i can't hate. i swear if he wasn't good looking he would be dead. just like thatcher is going to be for slapping poor meredith. oh the things i could say right now. but no. no profanity here. anywho back to mcjerk. derek pretty much used meredith. basically it's like let's have sex. let you make me a happy man. and then let me tell you how i really feel and make you leave. real nice. bet you're gonna regret that next time you get lonely. just like addison. once again i could say so much but i won't. i'll keep it all in for the sake of my critiquing career. she was lonely. she wanted someone to prove that she was needed, that she was wanted and desired. so she sleeps with alex [ew.] come on addison?! remember the "perfect 12 year old" comment you made to derek awhile back. yeah who's sleeping with the intern now? but i did love how mark rised above that. above addison. yes he may have asked meredith to sleep with him but he's a manwhore. it's who mark is. but he was willing to change that for addison. um that kinda screams commitment right there. and correct me if i'm wrong but didn't addison say that's what she liked about alex? she's so blind. the man you want is right in front of you, ready to change his life just for you and you screw another man because you don't think he's the guy for you. idiot [rolls eyes] i did however love some parts of this episode. burke and cristina...absolutely smitten in love. george and izzie. hate to say it but they are growing on me. but poor callie. i still feel for her. yes she may have tried to beat up meredith awhile back but come on guys. she doesn't deserve that. no sir. nobody deserves that. seeing your husband, the man you love whole heartily, fall in love with another women. and not just fall in love, but fall in deeper love. don't tell me she deserves that because she doesn't [sigh] ava. i actually liked her this episode she was funny. and she had a girl! how precious. haha p e n i s fish guy. now that was funny. and then the wife knowing about the assistant. that made me giggle. that guy deserved it. just like meredith said. karma :] so now we wait. until next week. which i am beyond excited for. thatcher slapping meredith. GRR! that man is dead. he does not live breath or have a pulse anymore. and derek chasing after meredith and she runs off. and mark. after all addison has done to him he still freaks out when he learns that she is gone. now that is a good guy. sorry for seeming so angry. hah you guys should have seen me after that episode. but all in all my point is...derek is a jerk. an unhateable gorgeous jerk. meredith is so strong and she doesn't deserve all of this. burktina = adorable. george and izzie. sweet but wrong. very wrong. addison is so blind and [sigh] she's beyond help. finally mark. poor mark. sweet mark. commited mark. you didn't deserve that dear. i say 9.999999 stars out of 10 stars. for sure.
