Shonda Rhimes: Watch What Happens

Shonda Rhimes speaks! The Grey's Anatomy creator and executive producer posted some thoughts on last night's premiere on her official blog. But basically, she's content letting this terrific episode speak for itself - and telling us we ain't seen nothin' yet ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So Derek got dead, Mer and Cristina got old together, and Izzie showed Denny her prom dress.

Such is the stuff of dreams.  Which was kind of my theme. For this episode.  And this season. Dreams. And whether or not they come true.

This is Season Five, people.

We, the writers, we call it our all in, go for broke season. We’re like the Chief – the bar has been raised and we’re the ones raising it. For us, Grey's Anatomy is new again. Full of chances and possibilities. Our characters are new again, starting fresh. We’re hopeful again.

Rhimes, S

And we’re enjoying being hopeful. All the rules are changing.

I know you are wondering, “Okay, what does this mean?” And I could tell you. But I’d rather you watch and see for yourselves.

Watch what happens with Meredith and Derek, Cristina and that guy Owen, Callie and Erica, Bailey, the Chief, George, Lexie, Mark, Izzie and Alex.

All the clues for this season are right there in this first episode. Nothing happens without a reason. Every line of dialogue has a point.

At least, I hope it does. I’m pretty tired but I think I’m right.

That’s all I’m going to say. Because we’re shooting the eighth episode right now. And I’ve got to get to the set to watch a scene being filmed.

So you’ll have more to watch.

I’ll try to write more later. Thanks for sticking with us. We’re going to do our damnedest to make it worth your while.

The bar has been raised, people. Consider yourselves on notice.

    Hi - I thought last night's episode was horrible. Terrible. The show definitely lost a fan.

  2. Marcia Says:

    Yeah, I agree - it was painful to watch. Lots of nonsense but no bang!

  3. Grey's Fan Says:

    I LOVED last nights episode... Grey's is back, and even though Meredith was a little whiny, the 2 hours flew by. Can't wait for the rest of the season!

  4. Kristi Says:

    I liked last night's episode, but in all honesty, I thought that there was a complete lack of mer-der.

  5. Belgian Grey Says:

    I just watched the episodes and personnally I did not like them I am very sceptic about what the future holds for this serie. I am desenchanted in a way you can't imagine. But that's just me!! I was never in the subject. I probably will drop out of this serie can't waste time anymore it has been down for 2 seasons in a row now. I still think there are some good actors playing in GA but it ain't enough for me to keep watching. Shonda ain't what she used to be.

  6. Cat Says:

    The new Doc Owen made the whole show worth it......hottie......move over Derek and Mark

  7. Isa Says:

    Am I the only person who thought last night was SO FREAKING BORING?!

  8. Jen Says:

    I agree. I love Grey's, but I was bored. There were some great moments, but all in all it was a disappointment.

  9. Angela Says:

    Grey's is always great to me. I thought that last night was wonderful. I think that Dr. Hunt is going to be a great addition to the show. The Alex and Izzie thing gets to me though. I would like to see them together. Bad. And Alex really needs more screen time. Christina couldn't be greater. She is hands down the best part of the show.

    I thought that last night's episode was actually pretty good.
    Hm.
