ABC26 Entertainment - Grey's Anatomy

Be Kind. Rewind. Formely known as the slogan on a Blockbuster VHS rental, now used to refer to Christina's plan for her and Burke. Tonight's episode was about going back, back to a time when life was less stress-ful and there was less drama (although that time never really existed). Christina wanted to revert back to a time when her and Burke didn't have to make decisions. She wanted to live in Burke's apartment and not talk about marriage or commitment or their past. That was her plan. Derek wanted to go back to before Meredith's drowning scare. He wanted to remember a time when she did not give up and when he didn't worry as much. Izzie and George just want to go back one day. They wanted to erase the last 24 hours. They wanted to relive the days when they were just friends. Just friends. NOT friends who had slept together. I personally would like to go back also. Back to the days when George was the fumbling doofus who couldn't carry a coffee cup without spilling it and he wasn't a stud muffin with more women problems than Jude Law. I know I addressed this topic last week, but why George?? Why is Izzie so upset? We could say she is upset because her BFF is frustrated and she was his #1 partner in adultery. BUT, we all know she is pining over the fact that being with George was comfortable. It felt right and deep down she needs him. YUCK! I just don't see it and to be honest, it is incredibly awkward. Seriously.
I just don't know where this could go. Callie will find out. AND it will probably be at the worst possible time ever, like their wedding party thrown by Callie's parents. George will probably pull a "Ross" and say in front of everyone "I love you Izzie" to Callie's face. I just don't see how this scenario will ever be resolved.
As far as who will be The Chief, let's get real...it can't be McSteamy. Ok, this topic really doesn't interest me so I'll end it there.
In conclusion to the Izzie and George scandal of 2007, I have a few observations. 1. Is Izzie some sort of power drinker? How could she handle her bourbon so well and look like a ray of sunshine the morning after when O'Malley looks like he stepped out of Dawn of the Dead? 2. As my roomate so eloquently stated, "does Izzie always have to make a speech?" Everytime you turn around Izzie is on her soapbox blabbing about something. Whether its inspirational or down right mean, the girl can't keep her yap shut (not that I have room to talk). And third, if Alex, Christina and Meredith heard Izzie/George's hoopla all night, how come they didn't hear the noise they were making between the sheets? I'm just saying.

After a three episode arc, a two week hiatus and one big salary debacle, GREY's is BACK! and in full force I may say. Many of us were disappointed with the less than satisfying finale of the "Will Meredith die?" streak. But tonight, it was some old school Grey's Anatomy. Humor, awkwardness and a whole lot of drama. That being said, let's begin.
Christina's obsession with men who have a certain level of intellect and integrity - is it the only thing she is attracted to? Maybe. Was that the old Christina? Maybe. Will she freak out and call off the engagement with Burke? Maybe not. I beleive the return of the British speaking, Dark Vader of the surgical world will only make Ms. Yang rethink her stance on marriage.
Next, ole Mere. Despite the fact that the candlelight dinner was everything BUT a Leave it to Beaver episode, I think the Greys' will reunite. There is potential. Meredith is becoming more open to the idea of family and Thatcher is becoming less of a wuss. After all, as McDreamy says "she's worth the effort."
With the Izzie/Alex scene, although I don't see it going anywhere soon, I will say this...Izzie made a comment that every girl has thought before "Doesn't mean that I want you to be with anyone else." Everyone wants there cake and wants to gobble it up too.
In regards to the Callie/George/Izzie thing, I'm speechless. Not really, but I have to take a moment because I'm not sure exactly what to say. Callie is rich and curvy. Izzie is blonde, stacked, a supermodel and a petulent child. George is an idiot. For a man who plays an indecisive, confused sissy boy, he sure has a lot of options in the women department. Let's start with Callie. So his woman has a fortune, SO WHAT?!?! Embrace it. Seriously. Don't get mad and start a fight. Second, your best friend is a supermodel - don't remind your wife of that and then call her curvy! Do you know nothing about women??? Finally, don't get drunk with your supermodel BFF and sleep with her.! You think you have a lot of options now, wait until Callie finds out and Izzie freaks. You will be sleeping on Burke's couch all over again. And of all the men on Grey's Anatomy who could have slept with both Meredith and Izzie - why the hell is it George? Alex, I can beleive. McDreamy, sure. Even McSteamy - I can understand. BUT GEORGE!!!! Man, he's a great actor.
On a lighter note, we didn't see much of Bailey tonight except for her ridicuolus mushroom haircut. I'm thinking she wasn't a main character tonight because they're waiting for her hair to grow out.
Also, if you didn't catch October Road, like my Meggie says "Its Sweet Home Alabama meets Dawson's Creek" and I like it.
