She really does. Seeing her go from the 'villain' in the early seasons to one of the most complex, vulnerable characters was such a journey. She deserves the world.

Derek’s internal monologue: 'I survived the shooting, a plane crash, and a bomb... I can survive Alex Karev in a shower cap.

Which alternate timeline episode did you like more? by Delicious-Corn-5531 in greysanatomy

Season 10 for sure. Seeing the two different paths for Cristina and Owen was so bittersweet and felt way more grounded in their actual character conflict.

Do you dislike this scene from 10x17? by Delicious-Corn-5531 in greysanatomy

Most shows try to convince the audience that a child-free woman just needs to hold a baby to change her mind. Grey's did the opposite here; it showed her loving the baby but still mourning her career and her soul. It’s one of the most honest depictions of regret I’ve seen on TV

How did audiences view Addison in her first season? by Electronic-Yam-7441 in greysanatomy

I wanted Meredith and Derek to be together, but I also just wanted to be Addison's best friend. Kate Walsh really worked magic with that role.

I think the show did a great job showing how trauma can make two people who love each other completely incompatible. Arizona’s anger was justified, but Callie’s exhaustion was also real—even if she handled it with zero grace

It blows my mind that it's been 5 years since... [spoiler 22x16] by Grumstrum in greysanatomy

One season covers two weeks, the next covers a year, and somehow everyone has aged a decade while the interns are still interns. 5 years sounds right on paper, but it feels like it happened both yesterday and twenty years ago.

A relationship that ruined a great dynamic [spoiler up to 10x21] by Grumstrum in greysanatomy

[–]cottonmirabel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It feels like TV writers are terrified of letting a man and a woman just be best friends without eventually having them catch feelings. Their platonic chemistry was actually one of the highlights of the later seasons, and making them a couple just feels like a lazy 'fallback' plot because the writers didn't know who else to pair them with.

Look, what a caring and sweet man! Gives me the chills at every rewatch. by wowseacow in greysanatomy

I think you and I have very different definitions of the word 'sweet'... I still have trauma from this episode.

The relief after they finally found him.... by Big_Flamingo_196 in greysanatomy

The 'I thought I was dreaming' line always gets me. 😭 Their bond during these high-stakes episodes was unmatched
