Below is a second sneak peak of the Season Five premiere of Grey's Anatomy (set for September 25), "Dream a Little Dream of Me."
The minute-long video clip below won't spark nearly the level of discussion that yesterday's sneak preview has, but it's still pretty neat.
It gives us our first look at Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd), and how he apparently impresses a certain Seattle Grace doctor at first sight.
Wow. Either Shonda Rhimes is ready to do the unthinkable or she really, really enjoys messing with Grey's Anatomy fans. Perhaps both?
Either way, a shocking sneak preview from the Season Five premiere of Grey's Anatomy, "Dream a Little Dream of Me," has surfaced.
Many of our readers have been expressed the opinion - in response to this week's thought-provoking Grey's Anatomy spoilers - that the scene first hinted at in the now-infamous promo takes place in a dream, or in Meredith's imagination.
But this eliminates any doubt that it does in fact take place. And it's not pleasant.
Take a look below, then sound off and tell us what you think ...
Rumors and speculation surrounding the September 25 Season Five premiere of Grey's Anatomy have reached new heights. Now Michael Ausiello of Entertainment Weekly is about to make things even worse for us ...
Q: Can you tell me if Derek gets hurt in the Grey's Anatomy season premiere?
A: Judging by that infamous promo, ABC certainly wants you to think that, right? Well, allow me to clear things up for you - by way of a multiple-choice quiz! I can confirm that two of the following take place in the season premiere - one for real and the other in Meredith's imagination (the other two are outright foilers):
Think you've got it figured out? Well, scroll down to the comments section and answer the following questions: Which incident occurs for real? Which one does Mer imagine? And which two are thrown in just for kicks?
Actor-writer-director Eric Stoltz is directing an episode of Grey's Anatomy in Season Five, which he deemed a significant and very rewarding project.
Without giving away any details, he called it "a more massive undertaking" than, say, his previous directorial work on Boston Legal and Law & Order.
"It's the difference between driving a bus and riding a bike — and on that bus are 17 unbelievably talented people," he says.
"[Grey's Anatomy] is an embarrassment of riches. It's quite mad, in a delightful way."
Stoltz is not at liberty to divulge any spoilers on what his Grey's Anatomy episode entails, or when it Season Five it will air, but he says this:
"It is really wonderfully character-driven, featuring a lot of people falling in and out of love. I'm very happy with the way it's going."
What's new on the Cristina Yang romance front? According to E! Online, there appearance of new guest star Kevin McKidd has been confirmed:
Q: Any new gossip on the new addition to Grey's Anatomy, Kevin McKidd?
A: If you've seen the latest Grey's Anatomy promo (yes, the one where Rose lies and we all freaked) there's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it tease of McKidd and Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh). Those two are so on, and I'm liking it!
A certain shocking preview for Season Five set off what could best be called widespread panic this week. Hopefully the following reports from TV insiders will quell some of the madness going on among Grey's Anatomy fans.
First, from E! Online's Kristin Dos Santos ...
Liar, liar, pants on fire! My sources tell me that the promo above is just plain old pointless torture, because Rose (Lauren Stamile) is lying through her pretty white teeth when she tells Derek that she's having his baby.
Now, why is she lying, and could she get away with it? That remains to be seen, but I can tell you that "Thorn" is just about done causing trouble for Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey), because the two-hour season premiere (airing Sept. 25 on ABC at 9 p.m.) is apparently Lauren Stamile's final appearance with the show!
Then, from Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello ...
Reading Michael Ausiello's spoiler column today in Entertainment Weekly, we came across this tidbit pertaining to our beloved Grey's Anatomy.
Specifically, to Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl) and the "big love story" that is rumored for her character in the upcoming fifth season.
Attempted humor aside, it looks as though some of your theories of Izzie's adopted daughter making an appearance could be coming to fruition ...
Q: Do you have any word on what the big love story is that Shonda Rhimes has planned for Izzie this season on Grey's Anatomy?
A: I'm inclined to agree with most Ausholes on this one: Bee-yotch wants her baby back, baby back, baby back.
No one said it was a romantic love story, did they?
It's too early to tell for sure, but at least from the spoilers and news we've read, Season 5 of Grey’s Anatomy is shaping up like a total love-fest.
First and foremost, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) are finally moving in together — to the delight of millions of viewers.
But don’t count on them walking down the aisle soon.
“Wouldn’t a wedding be too predictable?” Pompeo asks, rhetorically, in the new issue of TV Guide. “Would Meredith even wear a wedding dress?”
A fair question. But even without a wedding, the on-again, off-again couple will take a break from the breaking up and finally get a chance to explore life after “happily ever after,” says creator / producer Shonda Rhimes.
“The first three episodes start the dynamic of where we are all going,” Rhimes tells TV Guide. “Meredith is trusting him and moving forward cautiously, and Derek is waiting there, saying, ‘I’m here to support you.’”
Just for kicks, how would a Mer-Der wedding look?
“Cristina would come to Vegas with Meredith and Derek,” Ellen Pompeo said. “Then I’d leave her at the slot machines and go get hitched.”

What's the latest on the embattled Katherine Heigl and her character Izzie Stevens, who's rumored to be on the chopping block in the upcoming fifth season of Grey's Anatomy? Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello says ...
Q: What's the latest on the whole "Izzie gets a brain tumor" rumor?
A: It's been replaced by the completely new "Izzie falls for the deer whose life she saved last season" rumor. Think I'm nuts? Check out what Shonda Rhimes just told TV Guide: “Izzie’s got a love story – and it’s a big one, one that I’ve been kicking around in my head for a bit, one that required me to take a huge leap of faith in myself, one that is so secret that I have not told anyone. Not the writers, not anyone." What else could it be, right? The only other thing I can think of is that she hooks up with her estranged daughter's adoptive father. Nah, it's gotta be the deer.
