It seemed like the second Mark died Jackson replaced him and could do anything Mark could do and this is after Mark only mentored him for about a year (I think he only had Mark as a mentor in season 8?).

Considering Mark was supposed to be a world class plastic surgeon with a decade's experience it seemed very weird that Jackson could just take his place so easily.

It's a bit annoying because instead of being proud of Jackson I'm more in disbelief because it doesn't really make sense?

Does Kevin McKidd know that no one likes his character?? I feel like he has to since he's been in the show for like 17 seasons and I've never heard one nice thing said about him lol

Edit: does Shonda know as well, I feel like they can't be this clueless

Has anyone managed to find this doco in Australia? Desperately want to watch it.

I'm rewatching private practice right now and can't help but think of crossover head canons! Here are a few that I love to imagine. Let me know if you have any!! (most of these are Charlotte bc tbh the world needs more Charlotte King)

• Cooper has a patient with a really tough surgical case. He calls up a doctor in Iowa who is known to be the best. Addison tears up with pride when she sees Alex Karev walk into the practice. Cooper and Alex become close friends and they regularly visit each other in LA and Iowa with the kids who are close in age. Charlotte at first can't stand Izzie but they eventually grow into friends too.
• Charlotte, renowned urologist, gets called to do a surgery with Catherine Avery. After Catherine pulls her typical bossy and rude shit, Charlotte reads her to filth and kicks her out of the OR. It is cathartic to everyone in the room.
• Charlotte visits Amelia and becomes friends with Meredith. She's inducted into the sisterhood trio.
• Sam ends up going to Switzerland for a few months to do research at the institute. Him and Christina regularly go to the bar and gossip about their friends and nerd out about hearts. Sam tells Christina that Derek always thought she was the best.
• After hearing her story from Meredith, Charlotte reaches out to Jo. Together, they team up with to provide health care and support to women who are survivors of SA. They win a Catherine Fox award. (Charlotte also yells at Alex when she finds out what he did)
• Jake and Addison travel to New York to help out at the clinic that Arizona set up. Henry plays with Sophia and they reminisce about Mark.
• April and Charlotte become friends and bond over their shared faith, love of animals, and general badass-ness.
• Charlotte and Carina meet at a sexologist conference and collaborate on orgasm research.
• After Derek died and Meredith moved to San Diego, she would sometimes drive up to LA. She eventually started seeing Violet as a grief therapist for a while.
• Addison sends Amelia a million baby clothes when she's pregnant with Scout and throws her a virtual baby shower
• (Don't love this one but I totally see it happening) Owen and Naomi meet at a pro-life doctors event and flirt before she realizes that he's Amelia's ex

I am very happy multiple people got a happy ending, but MAN I’m so upset that April and Arizona are gone😔

I saw somebody say that they did a budget cut and that’s why they left. Is that true?

In real life I mean, about the second option *

For a woman who had half her leg chopped off she doesn’t walk like it. I’m watching an episode and Arizona is walking bending both knees. If they’re gonna go with the story that she lost her leg—-SHE SHOULD COMMIT! Look at House! He limped for all 10 seasons. Shes not sellin it. It probably shouldn’t bother me—-and yet—-IT DOES! 🤣

That is all.

I have never cried when Derek died. Not 1 time in all my rewarches. But when Addison comes back in season 18 & has a meltdown in the elevator & Meredith invites her over...I bawl like a baby.

I forgot how traumatic this episode was. The scene with all of the women lined up in the hallway was powerful.

I really appreciate how Ben always steps up for Tuck.

Why am I listening to a sad cover of No Scrubs by TLC while Bailey is talking about the possibility of a newborn baby dying of liver cancer. why am I listening to a sad cover of Shake It Off by Taylor Swift? Why am I listening to a sad cover of Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus? What is going on?

I’m rewatching Grey’s, and I still can’t stand Izzie. She’s always mad at everyone else for doing things she wouldn’t have thought to do. Her being mad at Meredith with the sly comments, but not telling her why was childish. Her feeling like Cristina and Meredith were “other there and she’s over here” when she constantly had remarks for them. I wouldn’t want to be your friend or tell you things if it’s going to be thrown in my face just because you disagree. I know she loved making fun of George since they are brother/sister vibes, but don’t let anyone say anything about her.

Don’t get me started on her attachment to patients. Miss girl, you are in the wrong specialty. Just don’t be a surgeon. I love that she later on isn’t one.

She’s also just very annoying to me. No one can convince me otherwise.

I’m only on season 2, so I’m sure I’ll see more things that I truly hate about her.

Mine is Levi and Nico

next year will mark 10 years since derek died and if we get a season 22 he will have been off the show longer than he was on it. that’s basically it. the merder arc feels like the whole show i cant believe it’s been able to keep going for so long after derek died

I'm sorry but what the hell is this??? I literally guffawed when they popped up on the screen 😭 (S14e22)

All but one of the dept heads are female, Webber has just been replaced, only Avery remains. The male characters all marginalised, and the female characters are toxic in their relationships.

Does Greys just morph into Sex and The City in the end?

Btw ik spoilers like:

That mcdreamy dies

. . . Maggie comes in (along with some others I don’t like) and it’s hard to watch, so back to the beginning I go, for the thousandth time lol.

Webber is GOAT Chief for me. His nickname is literally “The Chief”. Owen is second and Bailey 3rd. But I often forget that Derek was Chief as well.

He was okay IMO but utilized a lot of personal bias in his decision making. Any additional thoughts?

Hi!

I’m looking for a scene that occurred in a recent season. It had an attending doctor (I think Bailey or Teddy?) commenting on Gen Z employees. The comment was something about their values changing. It was overall supportive of the new Gen Z class, while acknowledging the shift in mentality towards work-life balance and mental health.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

as someone whose long since finished greys and hates how all the good characters are gone, this episode is making me squeal like a little girl. MCSTEAMY AND MCDREAMY TOGETHER AGAIN, MIRANDA WHEN SHE WAS THE NAZI, EVILSPAWN! im literally so happy to get new content from these guys im jumping for joy and im only like 5 minutes in. if lexie (OR CHRISTINA!!!) shows up im going to lose it omg

Just finished station finale and did anybody else notice the mess up in the timeline. The majority of finale takes place at the same time as the greys s20. Then they’re is a three month time jump and warren hands in his resignation. Yet the s21 premiere takes place a few days after the s20 finale. (Amelia says in 21x02 that she was gone a week. Plus Bailey mention that the intern have 3 months left). Warren tho in the premier has already quit and then gone back to the residency before he would have quit according to the station time jump. I know it probably doesnt really matter and station and greys have already have timeline mess ups, this annoys me because usually the two shows match in their timelines. Like I know they needed Andy out of the hospital but they could have done a smaller time jump or something.

I get the complains about how and why the show has been 'going downhill' but frankly, I don't really feel comfortable in saying it's lost all hope or that it's bad.

I find there are still some good stuff in it even in the later seasons, especially most of the relationships between the current cast which remains rather endearing. I get it can never beat how it was when the show first started but I think there is some quality left in it. Does anyone agree with me? Is there anything else about the show at the moment that you guys like? I would love to hear your perception on it, whether you agree with me or not.

Derek dying was a PLOT TWIST no one was ready for 💔 🫢

What are your favorite Richard Webber quotes? Endearing, funny, wise, whatever they may be. I’ll start with an out of pocket one: “Just trying to look at baileys teets on the internet.”

Hi! I’m watching episode 5 right now. I remember Levi finding the wedding album, but then when he’s talking to Jo he mentions Ryan.

Who is Ryan? What’s the backstory there? I’m confused.

I’ve been having my boyfriend watch greys anatomy with me under the disguise of it’s too sad for me to watch alone. He’s been enjoying it and we got to the season 10 finale last night. SPOILER!!! When Christina was saying her goodbyes I burst out into uncontrollable tears and just didn’t stop until the last dance party. He had to comfort me through the whole thing and now he’s also sad. lol I’m still depressed.

8 for the time being 🕺💃🏼

That's it. She is just annoying and ik that jackson leaving her was painful and i was actually a little pissed of at Jackson but come on girl it wasn't like it was a 2 year relationship she needed to let go like. And holding this thing against April like Steph u know tgat Jackson still liked April
