EXPLORE All The Shades of Grey

ALL THE SHADES OF GREY...............................................................................
I mean, seriously. How can you people not be satisfied with this stuff?! Because OMG tonight's episode was ... amazing. Spectacular. Wonderful. And I loved every moment of it. My heart is racing right now. And not just because of that spectacular and very nervous-inducing promo for the season finale, but because Adele is pregnant and bleeding. Derek met the Bar Slut. [Damn her to hell right now please!] Izzie lied to George. George got accepted to Mercy West. Callie knows Izzie wasn't talking about Denny. Cristina and Burke are getting married. And Meredith...well. Meredith is dark and freakin' twisty again.
Honestly, this storyline is really interesting for me. I know it annoys most people [and I don't see why it does], but it fascinates me. I mean seriously! Meredith's fake mommy died. As in "dead dead" died. I literally had tears forming in my eyes tonight. I felt so sorry for her and loved seeing the other interns try to help her - I really thought it paralleled what the interns did for Izzie in Time Has Come Today. But, this time, it didn't feel selfish. Meredith wasn't being selfish. She was being human; being her. And I felt so bad. Because Ellen Pompeo is, like, TV's best actress. And Cristina, well, she was like one of the best characters tonight. Best lines, best attitude. Loved her. And Bailey - she was definitley the "old" Bailey again. Loved it. Loved every moment of this episode.
But, at the same time, I am incredibly stressed. Like, next week I'm going to be so incredibly distracted thinking about the finale because someone's leaving someone at the altar, Derek might be dumping Meredith [he has offically lost his license to be McDreamy], and Izzie confesses to George. I'm so nervous and stressed it's not even funny.
The thing that worried me the most? It wasn't Jane Doe [no, wait, it's Rebecca] keeping her identity concealed [WTF was up with that?]. It wasn't Adele bleeding at the end [miscarriage?]. It wasn't Callie letting on that she might be pregnant [although that really worried me]. It wasn't even Derek talking to the bar slut [although that comes in at a very close second]. It was Meredith not writing a damn thing on her test. I had no idea how they would back themselves out of that corner, because obviously Meredith wouldn't repeat her intern year. And I'm so glad George, Richard, and Izzie got together and made her take the test. Because it needed to happen.
Yah. It does puzzle me why now of all times [what with it being right after Meredith's near-death experience and all] Shonda decided to kill Susan, have Thatcher basically go insane [I felt so freaking bad for Mer!], and have Meredith go all dark and twisty again. But guess what? I don't care. Because this is awesome television, folks. Riveting television. I can't believe you so called die-hard fans want to give this up. Because it's the best thing to come along in years.

Damn. I'm going to miss this so much over the summer.

SEATTLE RAIN™........................................................,,,........................................

i'm late. no i'm not pregnant. but my critique is late. both of them. last week and this week. i'm behind. and my lovely partner hasn't let me forget it. so i'm here. going to critique. and it's a first. i'm critiquing two episodes in one. so it's gonna be long. it might be interesting. but it's definately going to be fun :]

okay now on to testing 1-2-3. i absolutely LOVED it. i loved the feeling it gave off. i loved the interns being together. i loved finally having a meredith derek elevator moment. and i loved loved loved the patients. but i did not love derek. i hated how he didn't try. meredith wasn't talking to anyone [um did you hear what her father said to her? asshole] and even though cristina told him she could handle it he could have at least tried. derek's done enough this season to make some of his fans turn against him. but i was loyal. i was true blue. and then i saw the promo. when i heard "yeah you should be worried" i nearly karote chopped my tv in half. mcdreamy has always been a little cocky but this?! this. no sir. shonda what have you done? what happened to "i'll always show up." to "i'm in love with you. i've been in love with you forever." i'm sure derek still loves meredith. but when [and why] did he stop showing it? her mother and her fake mother just died in a span of 2 months. and then her father slaps her. and you're getting all angry that she's not communicating. seriously. but i'll move on. i don't want to go all hulk again. who else agrees with me when i say ellen pompeo deserves to win an emmy? everyone reading this better raise their hand. that scene with the chief and the one with thatcher is enough for me to raise all my limbs. she was amazing. sheer perfection. now that is someone who can carry their own show. that woman is spectacular. so yeah this episode was one of my favorites of this season. which is coming to an end. let's just hope that shonda can make up for all she's done to our merder and mcdreamy. not to mention gizzie. and addisex. and adele being pregnant. oh man shonda you have alot to do. but we know you can. we got faith. like the saying goes: "in mcdreamy we lust. in shonda we trust." [p.s. it's actually "in mcsteamy we lust" but mcdreamy's hotter. hehe]
