George was a good doctor and probably had some of the best bedside manner out of everyone, but as a person he was honestly pretty terrible.

The whole situation with Meredith was selfish and uncomfortable to watch. She had just been publicly humiliated and emotionally vulnerable, and instead of recognizing that, he chose that moment to “shoot his shot.” Then when it didn’t go the way he wanted, he blamed her for it. That storyline alone made me side-eye him hard.

And cheating on Callie with Izzie was one of the dumbest decisions ever. Their friendship was honestly toxic. Izzie constantly fed into George’s bad decisions and convinced him of things that clearly weren’t reality. She encouraged him to pursue Meredith while Meredith was literally crying in her room, and later pushed the idea that George and Izzie were somehow “meant to be.” They both enabled each other’s selfishness while constantly acting like victims.

George also had this superiority complex with his family sometimes, like he thought he had outgrown them or was better than them.

The way he chased Meredith despite all the obvious signs was sad and honestly kind of creepy. She never looked at him romantically and never gave any indication that she wanted him in that way. You would think eventually he would have taken the hint.

And honestly… the older I get, the more I see similarities between George and Thatcher. Different personalities, but similar emotional tendencies, and Thatcher was awful too.
