Hey Gloria, Hafsa and Irish. Hafsa is right, you are hilarious Gloria! Yes Rose did turn out to be your predicted stalker-type. Always perks me up to read you girls' posts. Well it sounds like Rose is only going to be in the 2 hour season premiere. And of course, what better way to draw numbers of viewers than word that Rose is not gone yet, lol. As I think Irish said, who cares as long as she isn't pregnant, and didn't Shonda promise she isn't?

Hafsa--what are you so busy with these days? hope everything's good with you!
Gloria--I know you weren't trying to be funny but I couldn't help smiling. Your description of MeDer's marital/family bliss sounds very much like Its a Wonderful (Grey's) Life. I can really see Shonda passing out the hankies so we can dab away tears of joy--NOT! I'm sorry to burst your bubble hon, because your scenario with Mer & Der's kids is so sweet. NOTHING I would love to see more. But I highly doubt they will get more than one baby by series end, and knowing Shonda, the focus will be on the pregnancy and we will see as little of the child as we do of little Tuck.
About BF--from what she's told me I don't think she has ever heard from any of the other students. she was keeping in touch with Liliana but I thinks that was awhile ago too.

Irish--HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Your posts are more entertaining than watching tv these days! about signing a petition for MIT: I have been active on the ABC MIT message board for months now. Since last January the fans have waged a massive Save MIT campaign via email, snail mail, phone calls, voting online, posting daily opinions on Hey Neilson site (we had MIT up to number 3 at one point). Begging every other network to pick up the show including HBO. (Lifetime turned it down). The most important thing we did was buy 7,000 food trees from the Trees for Life program, which plants food trees in third world countries. A certificate for every food tree purchase was made out to Stephen McPherson, CEO of ABC, petitioning to save MIT.
We had people on the board who are in the industry, and organized a huge public relations campaign to let the media know about our fan efforts. The critics and media were as unhappy about the cancellation as the fans, and some critics even bought food trees. All the certificates from the food trees were hand delivered to McPherson.
The results? ABC did not say one, single word of acknowledgment. Zero, zip, nada. And has not to this day.

Gloria--Shonda herself wrote the finale. And in her writer's blog on the ABC site, she even mentions the lucid Ellis episode! I can't remember exactly what she says, but she is clearly twisting things around to make her finale therapy-solution sound legit. You are right, she does not give us credit for knowing when she is giving us a crock. Love your analogy about Shonda with her bone!

Hello ladies! Hope everyone is having a nice summertime.
Irish, your post about Men in Trees brought a lump to my throat. We just had the series finale two weeks ago and it has been devastating for so many fans, including myself. There is still much talk going on at the ABC MIT message board. The consensus is pretty much unanimous that everyone hates ABC for taking away such a well-written, well-acted, funny, romantic, and lovable tv show!!! Many, many fans state they are done with ABC for good because of it.
Did everyone see the PD interview on the homepage? I loved it except what he said about IW. But did like that he gave so much credit to the character of Burke. I also liked what it said about IW's phenomenal acting.
Well I have to admit, after a week of feeling mopey about Grey's I am back to being in love with that finale, lol!!!!

Hey everyone. Hope you are all having a good weekend. We actually got up to the 70's for a few hours here before it started raining, lol.
Gloria, I really felt it was beneath Isaiah's dignity to call Shonda like that. I am all for forgiveness, but that was just offering to let them walk all over him again. He should have never gone there. It will just leave him wide open for comments that he is grovelling to get his job back.
Does anyone else feel a kind of post-finale realism setting in? I was so happy at first with that ending, but now all that comes to mind is how bad Grey's had gotten in season 4. The changes made in the last 5 epsiodes now make me feel more manipulated than happy, but I apologize for being negative about it.

Hey Irish, Gloria, Hafsa and BF,
thanks for the concern but I am fine--fortunately nowhere near any flooding or power outages. Its just been busy for me, have had birthday parties, graduation open houses, kids coming up for the 4th of July soon.
I saw the photo of Patrick on the homepage and thought I died and went to heaven. Good gosh that man is too beautiful for words.
Irish I am alittle disappointed in Isaiah for what he said to Shonda, after how they treated him. I feel it should be them crawling back to him, not him offering help, which they will never take from him.

Sandra, you crack me up so much (insurance paying for Mer's therapy). One of these days you're going to find a man who can handle you and then watch out!
Oh my gosh, I LOVED McVet! Except, what was his name again?? seriously I can't remember and I really liked him too!
We get Men in Trees tonight and then next week the finale!

Hey everyone! Gloria, glad to hear your pc is fixed. Having computer problems is as bad as washer/dryer problems! Sandra, you have the most delightful sense of humour. Men must just love you with that sparkling wit! Hafsa, what are you up to for the summer months?
The site is really quiet now and I doubt there will be many posts over the summer. I still have something about the finale that I need to figure out, and hope you girls can help me. It is regarding Meredith's becoming "all whole and healed" (which was so gratifying, at long last). The final piece in the puzzle of Meredith's therapy, was the realization that her mother meant for her to become extraordinary in love. But to me that does not seem to fit with the episode when Ellis became lucid. At that time, Meredith was trying to tell her mother that she was very happy because she had found someone special. And as soon as Ellis realized Meredith was talking about love, she got very angry. That was when she said, imagaine how I feel to wake up and find you have become nothing but ordinary. I took that to clearly mean that Ellis considered relationships to be secondary to a brilliant career, and that is why the bit in the finale puzzles me. Am I missing something or is this another instance of the writers not remembering their own backstory???
