• Chyler Leigh Promoted to Cast Member (7/11/2007)

  my opinion - everyone carrying on negatively about the Lexi factor is about a potential relationship with Derek - not only would that plot line put him in a profoundly dislikable situation - it raises moral compass questions that move Grey's away from the it's appeal. Not unlike making George & Izzie lovers which was a strange diection to move into. Can GA writers please go back to good writing and drop these faux plot twists they appear to be using. I'm out until I read in the press/web this got fixed this fall. I don't usually write in these forums but in this instance just want to express my concern for the direction of the series in 2007. I was a big fan. Grey's in Season 1, Season 2 and first half of Season 3 was well written plus charming, challenging, well produced, and well cast. What happened???
  

• Chyler Leigh to Become Cast Member? (7/6/2007)

  Dear Shonda - Just my opinion but "happily ever after in the end" isn't good enough. Your show is crashing - the fun and wit vanished in Jan 07 and has not had even a glimpse of returning. Your end of the year blog is not from the artist I had grown to respect - it's from someone who reads her own reviews and believes them - so, again, I submit to you a review to consider instead of the press you seem to be reading- from The New York Times at the end of season 3: (''Grey's Anatomy'' tried to fill the ''Sex and the City'' gap by mixing a playful approach to sex with a swoony look at love, and ended up taking adult romance so seriously that it veered into ludicrous melodrama.) My summary - dump the drama (and perhaps some of your writing staff's ideas?) - go back to scripts with charming and flawed human beings trying to get on with life and get your sense of humor back.
  

• Shonda Rhimes Discusses Firing of Isaiah Washington, Reflects On Season 3 (6/19/2007)

  to Alexaholic - guess what? even the New York Times agrees with us - a quote in last Sunday's Arts & Leisure Section article about women in TV over 40 finding good roles. "Grey's Anatomy" tried to fill the "Sex and the City" gap by mixing a playful approach to sex with a swoony look at love, and ended up taking adult romance so seriously that it veered into ludicrous melodrama.)

  With that preposterous season ending the GA writing team demonstrates how they are in love with themselves (evidenced by the last 2 season 3 episodes and Shonda's end of season message) --lame repetative plot twists and inconsistent charachter development. Does the GA team think their audience is stupid? The glow is gone from this series.
