Bailey looked crushed when she found out Callie was up for the chief resident spot (and having a great day in the OR with the mountain hikers).

I think my problem with this storyline is that I should feel sympathy for Callie (as written) but I am having a hard time with it since her and George seem to have zero chemistry together. It is hard to defend their marriage when it seems like they didn't belong together in the first place. I do like Callie as a character, but I just don't get her as a love interest for George. There was a scene last night where she hugged him and it just seemed so awkward for some reason. He does seem to have much better chemistry with Izzy. But I wonder if Izzy would even give him the time of day if he were single. I think the fact she can't have George makes him more desirable to her.

Jadzia

I'm sorry Pat...

Yea, I pretty much agree with you. I know that George is really screwing over Callie, and that it's wrong, but I just don't care all that much.

Ayre

The lack of chemistry and awkwardness of the relationship isn't about choice of actress or like-ability, but direction and writing. You are not supposed to like Callie too much otherwise George becomes the villain. Making George an anti-hero is not in the best interest of the show.

Callie will find out and be crushed. They will divorce. ... it is inevitable. It's a trainwreck waiting to happen. Everyone can see the train but Callie.

I thought that fact that Dr. Bailey said it would be a career mistake for George to go to Mercy West, and then Callie totally happy for the idea proved that Callie was more into protecting herself then really caring for her husband.

Like other people said though they have no chemistry when they are on screen together. So it is more of when they will break up not if for me,

MrX

ok episode. The climber story could be interesting.

I take it bringing in Chyler Leigh is so they can create new drama between Derrick and Meredith after they wrap up the the Izzy and O'Malley's story.

The Addison stuff was over the top.

I agree that the Chemistry is weird. I think A LOT of the bad-chemistry is on George's head and it was there Pre-Cheating with Izzy and it got WORSE due to his guilt and confusion over cheating with Izzy. I don't get her thing for George either. I think Callie can do waaaay better than George.

The whole getting horny and married after his dad died was/is a recipe for disaster which fits the other poster's idea that Callie is nothing more than a "revolving point" for the whole Izzy/George crapfest.

I do stand my theory that people don't care because of the actress playing Callie. I'll bet if George was married to a girl who more "Izzy-like" then people would be more sympathetic. To me both Izzy and Callie are gorgeous women and both can do way better then fricken George. I mean come on...George? Anyway, I think it's the Milquetoasty confused cheater George who's the real frog in this triangle.

Giantrobo

Did Bailey say it to Callie? Does that mean George still can't benefit? Bailey isn't alway right doncha know. Anyway, Callie is just stickin' by her man and supporting what he seems to want to do.

Good episode. Meredith's dad is an ass. I was feeling sorry for him back when Meredith's mom was alive but now I have no sympathy for him.

It'll be interesting to see how all these storylines affect Burke & Christine's wedding.

I've all but given up on this season. Hopefully they can turn things around next year.

If you are recording, note that this runs 15 minutes long, and PAD.

Just finished here in Canada. Here are the major spoilers:

well......I did not like this episode. Everybody was unhappy.

Patman

Well, I think the Burke thing was coming given the onset realities.

Not sure if George is coming back, but if so, he may just drop out of sight given the 2 women who love him, but he's sort in a weird quandry. Izzie sucks, though.

Felt bad for Bailey.

Addison is definitely out of SGH due to Private Practice given the green light for the fall.

Meredith and Derek really do need to go their separate ways, plus Lexie Gray will provide some more temptation for Derek.

Maybe Meredith and Yang will turn into a lesbian couple.

Alec might have pushed away a good thing, then again, maybe not.

Doughboy

Burke is likely gone. That's been rumored for a while, and it's no surprise given what happened a few months ago on the set. I just wish they wrote a better exit for him than just running away.

T.R. Knight reportedly WILL be back for Season 4. That surprised me. I heard he was leaving too. And the way things were going in tonight's finale, what exactly would be his role next year? Repeating as an intern? Regardless, I hope they nip this Izzie thing in the bud soon. It's making him almost intolerable.


Who? Oh, you mean the character the writers always seem to ignore.


Figures they take one of the few characters that remains likable on this show and put her in a different series. I'll give Private Practice a shot though. It can't be as bad as Season 3 of Grey's Anatomy.


While I can't stand Meredith, Derek sure seems to have a short memory. He's the one who initially started dating her while he was still married. He's the one who rejected her to give his marriage another shot. And he's the one who flirted with a strange woman at a bar who turns out to be Meredith's half-sister. And SHE'S the one who's wrecking their relationship?

You gotta hand it to the writers on this show. The only remaining characters I could tolerate this season were Derek, George, and Addison. One was given nothing to do and then sent off to her own series. The other two were forced to act totally out of character and treat their respective girlfriend/wife like crap. Well done.

I liked Jane Doe/Ava/Rebecca and her relationship with Alex. But they already went down this road late last season with Izzie and Denny. Plus unless she magically remembers she's a surgeon or a doctor of some kind, where would she fit in the show if she became a regular?

Tscott

Every character on this show is emotionally moronic.

Giantrobo

To all the haters.....Callie Rocks....suck it

Mr.Briggs

Dammit. I went to see Shrek The Third tonight & set my vcr to run till 10:02 not realizing it was an extended episode. I haven't watched it yet but when I do tomorrow I'll be about 13 minutes short. Of course this would be the first time in a couple months that they're not rerunning the episode on Friday night. Damn Damn Damn.

JediMindTricks

watch it online?

Mr.Briggs

Can't. I'm a webtv user. Don't have a computer.

zebop

I think she does too

Bateman

Does anyone know who the actress that played Lexi Gray is? She looks really familiar and it has been annoying me.
