More on the Return of Denny Duquette
Last week, we talked about the glorious and perplexing news, courtesy of Michael Ausiello at TV Guide, that Jeffrey Dean Morgan will be reprising his role of Denny Duquette on Grey's Anatomy.
Now, Kristin Veitch of E! Online has more on how Denny Duquette comes back to Grey's, and shares with us a few juicy details of his return.
Inside sources reveal the following pieces of information, which should put to rest some speculation while fueling even more:
- Denny does not appear in a flashback.
- Denny does not appear in a dream.
- It is Denny and not something kooky like his twin.
- Denny is not the only one we see.
- And for the record, the scene in which Denny appears will completely blow your mind.
Wow. That's a lot to take in.
Needless to say, cancel any plans you might have for the next few Thursdays and make sure you check out what happens with our friends at Seattle Grace. Because everyone will be talking about the next few episodes of Grey's Anatomy. Apparently, "Walk On Water" was only the beginning.

What the heck, why not. It's not a twin, it's not a flashback nor a dream, so the only logical explanation for this would be that: Meredith dies, Shephard saves her (Thank god for McDreamy) and apparently this scene should blow our mind.
Okay, so maybe Meredith doesn't die, because if she did, end of grey's. So soon?! =O Let's hope not. And that's not really mind blowing.
Speculation arises as to how he will come back exactly, but that is a lot to take in.

Denny narrating?
February 12th, 2007 10:46 AM
If Meredith disappears from the show I will be cured from my Grey's Anatomy addiction that's for sure. Already that I did not really like the last episode. Could not even finish the third time I watched. So why bring back Denny Duquette? Does success change writers good sense? I never liked Denny anyway and I am not a fan of Izzie anymore as well. Sounds very blasé I know.
February 12th, 2007 11:07 AM
I'd love to see Izzie n' Alex get back together...
But right now it's time for Addex!LOL
anyway...i wonder how Denny gonna reappear...
and how it's going to blow my mind...
becoz i start to dislike Izzie becoz of Denny..!!
and i would be real mad if Mer is dead.. she's my dark-twisty-most favorite character on the show..!!
February 12th, 2007 12:23 PM
Probably have a quick scene from "the afterlife"...
February 12th, 2007 2:26 PM
I once read a book where the dead were narrating the entire book. Seeing how dumb all of the living were acting and that kind of thing. Maybe that will have something to do with it? Can't wait!!!!!!
February 12th, 2007 3:32 PM
Does anyone know approximately when Denny will come back????? Just curious!
February 12th, 2007 4:34 PM
Obviously it will be an afterlife-sort-of-thing, while Mer's drowning. I don't know why Mer would give a poop about Denny if she's dying, but w.e.
February 12th, 2007 6:47 PM
Ugh.
Please don't bring Denny back to life.
Unacceptable.
February 12th, 2007 9:32 PM
I agree with canedoc. I think she will have a near death experience and while she is seeing the light she will see Denny and probably bomb squad guy and maybe even Mr. O'Malley. Maybe she'll have a message for Izzie that Denny is proud of the clinic and a message for George that his father is happy about his marriage.

interesting news...
Kristen's video on e online shows that somebody big is going to die. Somebody very unexpected...
I think it might be Burke...after that whole thing on set...but dunno...
February 13th, 2007 10:16 AM
It is interesting. Meredith falls off the dock and into the frigid water of Puget Sound after trying to drown herself in the bath tub that morning and still someone suspects if a character is going to die it will be Burke. It really makes me want to jump into the water myself.
For those of you worried about Meredith, can't sleep, nervous, frightened for your favorite character or one half of your favorite couple, you are experiencing in this one week what the Burke fans have been experiencing for the past four months. Please stop wishing that our favorite character would die or that if someone has to die it will be him. Let's kill off Ellis Grey. Let's kill off someone of less significance than any of the 10 original cast members. For the love of God, let's get past the f-word and as Kristen says make the f-word ferryboats. Shonda has stated that they are not going to fire Burke. Why would they then turn around and kill off his character. He has a six year contract with the show. I really think if he were leaving it would be in the news because he would not accept this without a fight.
Kristen also says that there will be two deaths, one this week and one next. One of the two will be a main character and that one of the two deaths will stick, meaning one will not. Can't we all hope that the death that sticks is not one of the main characters and that the one that does stick is someone of less significance to the fans of the show? I think Meredith will see bomb squad guy and Denny in a near death experience but in the third part of the series she will be brought back to life. It's cheesy, but far better than having anyone we love permanently dead.

For one thing, it would be the death of Grey's if Meredith dies. The show is based on her and the people around her. How could they do that. They definately would lose a lot of credability and a lot of fans. I, personally, thought Denny was hot. I never wanted him to die and it would be strange for them to bring him back but they do it on soap's everyday. Everybody I know think maybe his spirit will help to save Meredith. Like on One Tree Hill, Keith's spirit helped save everyone when the lemo went over the bridge and his spirit helped save Lucas when he had a heart attack. So he's be back on the show but in spirit only.

Burke Backer to be fair us merder fans went through a whole season of drama with our character and you guys only a few weeks. I am sorry that people are saying that burke should die but as much as you love burke we lover merder.
February 13th, 2007 12:24 PM
I know you love burktina burke backer but we love merder.....i still want to talk about our favorite show and remain impartial
February 13th, 2007 2:38 PM
I love merder, too, purplemerder, and don't want any of the main characters to die. That is what I am trying to say. I don't think they could possibly kill off Meredith. If she dies, it will be only until she is revived and I think that will happen in the miracle episode, the third part in the series. Meredith is my third favorite character on the show after only Burke and Cristina. I never want anything to happen to her. I agree with the person who said she is the thread between the characters and I think she holds the whole tapestry together. It would all fray without her. The merder fans went through a whole season of drama and it was gut wrenching at tiimes but every week there were reasons to believe that Meredith and Derek belonged together and never any question of one or the other being killed of or leaving the show. Burke and Cristina fans have gone through this whole season until two weeks ago without really knowing if they would survive the hand tremor thing. They are just now kind of back together. We certainly don't want to lose either of them now. I just hope that if not this Thursday, after next Thursday we know that all are safe with Derek and Meredith and Burke and Cristina still together. A double wedding would be nice.

They kill Meredith, and they kill Greys.
February 14th, 2007 9:34 PM
They won't kill off Meredith. They'll probably make it pretty close, though - remember when Denny was getting his heart transplant, and the heart wouldn't start beating, and they cut to a commercial as the machine was flatlining? Something along those lines. Derek will probably be her "knight in shining ...whatever" as everything ties in on Grey's Anatomy. Like in the bomb episode, when Meredith wakes up with a bad feeling. It's called foreshadowing. It would be an unwise decision for them to kill off any of the main characters, because they'd never stop getting crap for it, no matter how much the killed character is or isn't liked. Killing off Burke seems like a strange prediction to me, even with the rumors of him being fired (though I thought those were supposedly settled?) The focus seems to have shifted from Burke & Cristina for now - they had their spot in the limelight with Burke's tremors and their game of "Uncle," and now they are engaged. (Not that I have anything against either of them, don't get me wrong, I love them both.) Ellis Grey dying in heart surgery isn't such a bad theory. It'd definitely be dramatic to have both Greys in ORs at the same time, on the verge of death. As for the Denny thing, I'd love to see him back, but I just hope it isn't too cheesy. His spirit helping save somebody or whatever...that doesn't sound like Grey's Anatomy. Anyway, I'm sure they can pull it off. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Ok, nobody was meant to know this but the car blows up, Izzie dies and then Denny appears. It is not known if she comes back to life.
Meredith is saved by Derek, but he is not the only one trying to save our Mer.
Alex & Addi have some problems ahead.
Elizabeth Reaser IS the pregnant woman Alex saved, and he becomes attached to her. (But no, he doesn't cut her LVAD wire)
Thats all I know.
February 15th, 2007 12:40 PM
HOW???? Thats impossible we all saw Bailey check him and zip him up again! thats SERIOUSLY impossible! HOW!
February 15th, 2007 6:08 PM
Ohhhh that's freaky!!!! Any hoo, i think if Denny comes back(ugg) then he's either going to be narrating or... Somebody important dies(COUGH Izzie) and sees him in Heaven(sigh)
February 17th, 2007 1:01 PM
Wow. I just have to say that last weeks episode was amazing! Meredith can't die thought, I love her too much, she is hilarious. The last scene where she asks if she is dead is so scary it was so unexpected and excellent job to whoever had the idea. I just got to say to Kristen, why did you say the car blows up and Izzie dies. You scared me for a moment. Haha I LOVE GREYS ANATOMY! Wow =)
February 21st, 2007 12:05 PM
I'm sorry but Kristen's comment seems rather erm.. unreliable. Its not confirmed if that is the same Kristen who actually knows what really goes on from E! Online. For all you know it may not be accurate. HOWEVER, it does sound plausible, but even after what happened with Denny, I still love Izzie!!!
February 23rd, 2007 8:45 PM
I would love to see Denny come back and stir things up at Seattle Grace, not like spooking anyone but stir things up a bit, yet not take away from the main characters. Bring a very hot steamy session between him and izzie. Rhimes and Beers i say bring my baby back
February 24th, 2007 1:23 PM
