This shit is heavy. I knew that George died, but I was still horrified when they wheeled him in.

What was everyone’s response watching this ep when it aired? Was it already known that TR was leaving? I knew it was George from the beginning because I knew he got hit by a bus, but was it a huge surprise when the John Doe was revealed to be George?

thoughts?

i know most of them dont go anywhere because it wouldnt be accurate for real life, and its just a show but it seems like theyve all had a moment where they just got a random idea and after an all nighter they’re basically ready for trials. Like during Jo and alex’s honey moon Jo managed to be able to basically come up for the cure for cancer or possibly all disease in like 2 days, on napkins and post-it notes. and somehow this idea was so good to the point where bailey made a whole fellowship for her? or bailey with her HIV thing. she didn’t have anyone to help her deactivate HIV to put into a boy?? just seems like they could be inspired by a cheezit on monday and writing articles or preforming crazy procedures on wednesday. shouldn’t there be tons of other medical researchers to further explore how these ideas will work? i just feel like there is so much more science behind these things that they just come up with thats beyond them and theyre comprehension.

I honestly have really enjoyed how things have happened since Mcdreamy died.

The changes Meredith has gone through. Grief, motherhood, her relationship with Amelia, her becoming an even better surgeon than she was. I think Derek dying has made Meredith into who she was meant to be. Yes, he was the love of her life, but I don’t think she could have reached her potential as a surgeon when he was still alive. He was one of the best neurosurgeons in the country, and she was the intern he fell in love with.

Anyways, I have loved the new storylines that have happened since Mcdreamy died, and I know it’s not like the first 5 seasons, but I think change is good when it comes to these characters.

Just finished binging up to season 19, netflix doesn't have season 20 yet. ABC website has the episodes from episode 3 onwards but can't find a place to watch episodes 1 and 2 - any help in finding where I can watch them?

Okay so I’m rewatching the show and I’m at the point in Season 14 where Meredith wins her Harper Avery award but the thing is that I thought Grey Sloan doctors couldn’t win the Harper Avery because they’re affiliated with the foundation… that’s the whole reason why Cristina didn’t win it when she was nominated.

So… what changed?? I know it turns Into the Catherine Fox foundation but that’s later on. Did I miss something?

I'm watching Grey's for the first time, and the retired surgeon couple in this episode struck me as a "what could have been" if Derek hadn't died and he and Meredith had settled down and grown old together like they wanted to. The Clatches still loved each other deeply after 60 years of marriage, and it seems the show's position on MerDer is that they were "the one" for each other (despite their many tumultuous ups and downs). I imagine this is what they could've been like if they stuck it out through the rough patches of their marriage, mellowed out a bit, and ended up together in old age. The old couple even resemble Meredith and Derek in appearance (if you envision them 40-50 years older).

The husband not being fully supportive of his wife's career early on in their relationship seems like a parallel to MerDer's often shaky professional relationship and Derek's lack of support when Meredith wanted to focus on her research in her first years as an attending + the whole mess that that situation turned out to be... But the Clatches obviously got past that, which makes me think MerDer could've worked out a way to be supportive of each other's careers too (if the writers hadn't had to keep Meredith in Seattle, or kill Derek off, etc. etc.).

Of course there's no way of knowing for sure whether MerDer would've stayed together or ended up divorced if Derek had lived, given their fairly shaky past. They seemed happy at the end, but who knows whether Derek would've remained happy to just be with his family and work in Seattle or if he would've grown bitter again about lost opportunities, leading them to fight about the same things. Either way, since his life and their time together was cut short, I think the Clatches and their long-lasting love at least represent an idealized version of what MerDer could have been. This is how Meredith might envision their lost future together, since it's easier to idealize a person/relationship when they're taken away unexpectedly and without proper closure.

Regardless, the episode's central point seems to be that whether you're married for 6 years or 60, you'll never be ready to say goodbye to the love of your life, and learning to live without them will be painful. In this way Meredith couldn't have avoided the pain of losing Derek (unless she was the first to go), even though it came with the added grief of it happening too soon.

Did anyone else think these two were an older version of MerDer?

-none of the greys cast could save your life. They’re all actors. I repeat. Those people on the screen are ACTORS. NOT DOCTORS. and THAT is a hard pill for me to swallow😂

something about them i just don’t like idk why

Why does it seem like every TV show since 2020 has been trying to become “woke”. Don’t get me wrong things need awareness brought to them but TV is a lot of peoples escape from reality and the wokeness of tv is just getting annoying.

I honestly don’t think that the new seasons are that bad? And by new i mean up to s16 because that’s all i’ve watched to up to now but everyone says it’s bad after like s10/11. When i first watched it i stopped watching after derek died because he was my favourite but now im finally watching the rest it seems good 😭

let’s be honest guys how many times have you fallen asleep to greys?😭😭 truthfully i think about 7 times for me recently

I loved the song selections in a lot of Greys (Today has been okay, and Vampire Diaries. Can anyone suggest any other show I could watch to possibly scout for good songs that I might have not heard before ?

Who do you think will fail?

I’m rewatching Greys anatomy and I never really cared for Ross before but this time round hes become one of my favourite characters I wish he stayed at little longer

Hi there, I'm rewatching and on episode 6x17, where Callie is trying to grow cartillage, but I kinda missed were that comes from, I rechecked this episode and the previous one and saw nothing about why she came up with that idea, can anyone enlighten me? Thanks!

Arizona is so beautiful.

Even I find this a hard question but I’ll have to say Cristina. I just love her so much that I can hardly see any wrong doing 😅

She was a waitress in 2x24. I’m watching the show for the first time but I’ve watched Greys so many times I could never miss a cast members face.

Okay, so, I am on my first watch. As one does.

Does the way Meredith say “Derek” get less annoying, or am I stuck with it until McDeath???

When I come on here I see a lot of posts of older seasons. Not much discussion about season 19 and 20… the new intern group is special and unique in their own right. Made my love for the show come back—because it was a refreshing watch again.

I like they are focusing on mental health this season. I know it might be a shorter season due to the writers and actor strikes.

one of the silliest parts of the “what if” episode was the scrambled couples. What unlikely matchups would have entertained you to see for a “what if”? No rules on sexuality or whether they were on the show together! get creative 😆

I added these seasons because a lot of the main plot points happened around these seasons the plane crash, the shooting, George and izzie leaving, Derek dying, and Cristina’s exit!!

they should have shown a bit of their lives when Alex left to be with her…
