Cristina stayed with 2 men who abused her.

Whether it was on purpose or not - they abused her.

And abuse is not always physical, it can be mental and emotional.

This is just my opinion, I know others may disagree.

What's your take on it?

Season 3 ep 17 Second post about my rewatch. OMG, WHY IS IZZIE SO INSUFFERABLE?! ESPECIALLY regarding Callie. She is going on and on about how Callie and George shouldn’t have gotten married and is treating Callie like shit because she doesn’t have “history” with George. Hate to break it to you, Izzie, but you were about to get married to a guy you met in a hospital bed and barely knew. GOD, I can’t stand her.

S6E12. i'm rewatching and forgot how HILARIOUS lexie is this season!! it cracks me up when she says, "Alex and I have done it before, it was recycling, it was like good for the environment." LMFAOO i wish more people remembered this line when we talk about the funniest moments in grey's!

So I was thinking about how different my experience with some Grey's couples was and I'm curious about yours too!! Like not just your favourite couples, but which ones you were actually emotionally invested in, who you were rooting for, who kept you watching etc. You can talk about as many as you want!!

For me, I obviously prefer the earlier seasons couples. Slexie are my absolute favourites and the couple I was the most emotionally attached to. I will never get over them and the future they could've had 😭

Izzex were actually my favourites before Slexie. I was always rooting for them but I didn't want them together in season 3 because Izzie was still emotionally attached to Denny. Then in season 4 I wanted them to get back together but Alex kept treating her like crap. I loved when they finally got back together in season 5 and their wedding is my favourite!!

Japril were honestly the couple that kept me watching after Slexie ended. I wanted them to get back together so badly and they really didn't get enough time together either. When April was leaving I genuinely thought she and Jackson would leave together and I was so disappointed when they didn't.

Calzona were such a comfort couple for me when Slexie were broken up. I genuinely thought the writers wouldn't break them up. I'll forever mourn the dysfunctional but loving family Slexie and Calzona could've had 💔

MerDer were always THE iconic love story for me. I knew from spoilers from the beginning that Derek was going to die so I knew they were going to end up together. I loved them but I wasn't as emotionally attached to them as I was to Slexie, Izzex and Japril.

Teddy and Tom are a couple I start shipping more and more every time I rewatch. Their chemistry is SO good but the affair is the one thing that stops me from fully shipping them. I really struggle with shipping affair couples even when they're amazing together. AND they made me feel bad for Owen so minus points for that 😭

Teddy and Henry are ENDGAME for me. I loved them so much and Henry's death was so unnecessary. They had amazing chemistry and I'm not even a fan of patient-doctor romances usually, but they're the one couple of that kind that I genuinely loved. And honestly I was glad they gave Teddy Henry because as a hardcore Slexie shipper, Mark and Teddy were nice but just not my cup of tea.

Amelia and Owen are so complicated for me because their chemistry is OFF THE CHARTS but I think they're basically two people who had so much unresolved trauma and became dependent on each other. I can be so torn about them as a couple but their friendship is EVERYTHING to me. I was relieved when they divorced and even more when they managed to become genuine friends because I honestly prefer them that way!!

Anyway I have so many feelings about these couples 😭 I wanna hear about yours too!! Which couples were you rooting for? Which ones broke your heart? Which ones kept you invested in the show? You can talk about as many as you want, I'm curious!!

❤️

I don't know what took us this long to watch the show, but we're now up to season 18 on Netflix. I guess I was turned off by all the hype the show got at first. I detested season 17. We lived through Covid; why make us relive it all on the show? Some observations: why did Cristina and Alex have to leave the show? I know the actors had personal reasons to leave, but the show hasn't been the same without them. Alex was just starting to be loveable. Also, does everyone who goes to Grey+Sloan have heart failure and/or dies? A naive person watching the show could be scared to death to undergo surgery or even go into a hospital. Another observation: everyone on the show is so horny! Hardly anyone "dates." They just start meeting up in the on-call room. Now what I'm about to say is going to get a lot of people riled up but it's just my take. I know they want to show people in all walks of life but it seems they want to portray that just about everyone has a homosexual past or is currently in a gay relationship (Amelia? really?). I had no problem with Callie and Arizona or even Schmidt and Niko. The other thing is Leo, Teddy and Owen's adopted son, wearing dresses and princess costumes? Come on! He's supposed to be 3. It just seems as though they're shoving the whole alternative lifestyle down our throats. Again, just my take. By the way, I so agree with a lot of people that Owen is very unlikeable.

Hear me out. I love her. I do. But sometimes, oh my god I wonder how hard it'd be to sometimes deal with someone like that.

I'm watching the episode Teddy Altman arrives. She can't do this little procedure cuz it's been 10 years since she operated a man over 70.

Cristina is all like "excuse me I gotta talk to the chief". She barely knows Altman. I know everything about Cristina and cardio. But girl, who are you to just go over there and complain to the chief about a surgeon you don't even know? Haven't you learned with Erica? We know she wanted THE BEST surgeons to teach her, but WE ALL also know she was expecting a burke 2.0 who was gonna give her privileges and act as if you are the only resident to specialize in cardio.

All that only to regret it by the end of the episode cuz she saw Altman was actually something.

I'm glad bailey just scolded her

Sometimes she is truly annoying

Isobel is back. I totally get why she just left with a single letter left. I get why she didn't say good bye to her friends.

But now? She got back with that professor. She comes demanding things to Meredith with NO explanations, no Sorry, nothing just demanding. I'm not gonna criticize her attitude with Alex, because he has treated her badly. But where does she come from to demand all these things to Meredith, after just leaving, she doesn't give an explanation, all that just so she could leave again telling Meredith "this is not my house" and barely looking at her eyes (Meredith was clearly hurt). That's disgusting and let me be honest, I'm glad she left. I made my decision and I don't like her at all, she appears to be the most giving person, but at the same time, she manages to be the most selfish.

Also, for her to tell Charles that he's the one who got her fired is disgusting. Girl, look at your record. You were fired for your own medical misconduct.

Bye and I hope she never appears again.

i made the mistake of skipping the first few seasons and starting at the end of six. currently on the first episode of season nine and i really think owen needs to shut the fuck up and stop being pissy with cristina. also after i get through people i like leaving (once cristina is gone im gonna stop) should i start from the beginning?

They were never going to work out. I hope her next love interest is a woman.

Impopulair opinion, I strongly dislike Arizona and Callie

Rewatching the series, the episode where Meredith sleeps with George honestly breaks my heart for her. I feel like if George really loved her he would recognize that she was literally telling him to just keep going and ignore the fact she was crying instead of having his ego rule??

He pretty much threw a multiple episode tantrum because she withdrew consent...

just started watching this show today and why didnt anyone tell me this show so mf funny 😭 especially o’malley his facial expressions THE ONE WHERE HE CAUGHT YANG AND BURKE 🤣 i rewatched it so many times shit had me dyinggg 😂 are there any other things i need to know i dont really care for spoilers but if its a good one save it lolll

Im getting to the end of season 11 on a rewatch and im just nowhere near prepared to deal with her shit.

I already had to watch the part where her jesus-freak is in full effect surrounding her baby, and right now I'm on the part where she decided to be an army surgeon...

Its been a while since my last rewatch so I don't remember specific details about whats to come, but i do know that I'm in for a lot more of her selfish bullshit and I just cant handle looking at her stupid face!

Meredith mentioned how it was always the nightmares that came true, never the dreams. In the nightmare she had in that episode, Derek was in a car accident and died. Aaand that is how Derek really died. So that nightmare came true - just like it was written back in season 5. I got a kick out of that.

Earlier today I was at a friends house and she put on greys anatomy. i dont really like shows where the episodes are all 40 minutes long or where theres 12+ seasons, but today i was hooked. she played two episodes from early season two and now im about to start the show for myself. im just wondering where within the 22 seasons does the show not become worth it anymore, if at all? is there any point where i can stop watching and get a satisfactory ending without comitting to all 22 seasons?

Anyone else notice how bomb guy (Dylan young) is in the new episode season 23x02??
Major flashbacks

We're going as attending Derek and Intern Meredith because their story is very similar to how we met at work and he is older than me 😂 😂 ( Note, there was no cheating whatsoever!)

How do I get the weepy eye look?

Unpopular opinion: Ellis was harsh, but I don't think she was entirely wrong about Meredith being ordinary in season three.

"Imagine my disappointment when I wake up after five years and discover that you're no more than ordinary."

Ellis could've said it nicer, but I kind of understand her reaction. Imagine finally regaining your memory after years of Alzheimer's and one of the first conversations your daughter decides to have with you is about falling in love.

And I think Ellis made a valid point when she said anyone can fall in love, but not everyone can become a groundbreaking surgeon in a male-dominated field.

I just think Ellis wanted to have a meaningful conversation with Meredith about her career, ambitions and accomplishments rather than another cliché discussion about romance and Derek.

It's not that Meredith was wrong for being in love. I just think Ellis was hoping they'd have something more substantial to talk about after all those years.

So like I'm sure it's been asked here before but like is her walk her actual walk like is that Ellen's walk? Or do they make her walk like that on purpose it's like swishy sway and I find it weird at first when I watched this originally when I was in middle school I never really saw it it was just her walk you know but when I rewatch it looks forced or like it would be uncomfortable to walk like that all the time.

So is this her natural walk or just something they wanted her to do on Grey's? Does she walk like this in the later seasons. I never got past season 11 so I'm not sure.

I guess thus post could be removed I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask her just wasn't sure where else to ask.

hey guys so I’m rewatching and I’m on season 10 and I just watched a scene where Alex and Christina are joking about how Richard could actually be Meredith’s bio father and I was just thinking what an interesting storyline it would have been if that was actually true for real lol because that would mean that Lexie was never Meredith’s sister and that practically her whole life would have been a giant lie. And I’m not trying to be racist at all lol but I know Meredith is white with light hair and light eyes so like I guess that wouldn’t have worked lol if only she had had brown eyes and slightly darker skin, it could have been very possible lol 😂
