• "Elevator Love Letter" Sneak Preview (3/25/2009)

  TDS, thank you for your thoughtful, well-stated personal opinion. I understand how you feel. I'll try to write a post that runs contrary to popular opinion on here and I either get ignored or attacked. I happen to like several relationships that aren't well-liked apparently (Mexie, A/I, etc.) and sometimes just mentioning how cute I thought they were in a particular episode gets me posts commenting on how I must be an idiot, immature, etc. to like such a couple, how incestuous, abusive, etc. said couple is and so forth. It's gotten to the point where some of the time I don't even post because I don't feel the need to have my opinion savaged by other people. I don't write that anyone needs to "love" my couples more than others, and I don't attack the other couples beyond stating why I personally don't care for them, but that doesn't seem to stop people on this site. Who knows, I might get blasted for this post, for stating that I'm tired of getting tirades just for stating my opinion. Go figure. It's amazing how normal adults can get so vicious and worked up over characters that don't exist.
  

• Discuss "Stand By Me" in our Grey's Anatomy Forum! (3/20/2009)

  Everyone keeps saying they don't understand why Izzie didn't tell George herself. Well I do. Imagine your best friend, the person you care about, that you empathize with and share with, who supposedly knows you better then anyone else. Now imagine telling that person that you had stage 4 malignant cancer that had spread to your liver, skin and brain. That you probably only had a few months to live. That the treatment was intensive, painful and only gave you a five percent survival shot. Can you imagine telling someone you loved that? Imagine what that would do to your best friend. How heartbreaking it would be. I'm not saying she wouldn't have ever told him, but I'm saying she would have put it off as long as possible, because she didn't want to put that burden off on him. Or really any of them.
  

• "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" Promo (3/9/2009)

  At first I thought it was odd that she goes to Cristina, but the more I think about it, the more sense it makes. Izzie's scared right now, but she also knew something was wrong. She wants options, possible treatments, chances of survival rates. This is information Cristina can give her. If she goes to Alex or George, they're going to go all emotional on her, inspirational "you can fight this stuff". That's not bad, but it's not what she's looking for right now either. I watched the video that greysaddiction posted the link to for Izzie and George fans. I always preferred Izzie with Alex romantically, but her and George's friendship meant the world to me. Watching this video will remind you of how wonderful it was and how ridiculous they're playing it out now. I don't know what's going on with the actors, writers, producers, etc., whether someone's being a drama queen (or king). But I know that the viewers that keep this show in the ratings deserve more from this friendship then what we've been given lately.

• Mcsteamy and Cally!!!! (11/16/2008)

  I really enjoy watching Mark and Callie together, but I worry with Mark's history.  After George and Hahn, the last thing Callie needs is to end up with another person who will screw things up.  On the flip side however, we haven't seen Mark with anybody since he and Callie started the whole sex buddy/friend-you're my person thing, so it's possible she's turning Sloane into a one woman man.  But part of me doubts it.  They said Sloane gets his own love story this season, but with what Callie's already gone through this season, I doubt it's with her.  We'll just have to see.

• Cristina and Owen!!! (11/16/2008)

  I think that the kiss was about Cristina realizing there's possibilities there, but that it's going to take some time.  Burke was the initiator in his and Cristina's relationship and she was hesitant about it.  It seems to be reversed this time.  I think Cristina's realizing how much Owen has in common with the way she used to react and realizes he needs time and for them to take it slow.  She wasn't judgemental after the kiss, she just walked away cause she knew that moment needed to be left the way it was.

  I forgot to mention that I also really enjoy what's developing between Cristina and Owen.
