i adore Denny, don't care why he is back....wish he was back to stay. He makes Izzie a better person.

I THINK DENNY IS BACK AS KIND OF AN ANGEL COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO BRING IZZIE BACK WITH HIM FROM THE AFTER-LIFE. HE KEEPS STATING "I CAME FOR YOU"
ISN'T SHE GOING TO BE KILLED OFF THIS SEASON? THOUGH I THINK THE WHOLE THING IS PRETTY WEIRD, I THINK HIS WORDS GIVE IT AWAY. HE'S COMING TO TAKE HER TO HEAVEN. I'd almost take bets on this!

wow - unhappy people with the people unhappy with GA...

i fastforwarded through all the Denny/Izzie scenes. i don't care if its a tumor, guilt or a crossover with the Ghost Whisperer - i ain't buying it.

I do love that Mer & Der are still together...in a happy, supportive relationship...and that Der brought home a stray.

I can live with the rest of the show based on that...but I hope it gets back to its fab writing roots...

"for those of you who seem to think ..." Mr Toomey, you criticize because you are critical. You act as if "those of" us have come to some irrational conclusion based on nothing. Week after week you submit at best snarky reviews of the show, at worst nasty, mean spirited and very critical. So "for those of you who have difficulty taking responsibiity for the situation they have created," the others of us are so happy for you that you didn't suffer so much this week in that you enjoyed the episode.

I've been mostly liking this season of Greys. I don't like Sadie so much, I think she's a bad influence on Lexie and I'm glad Meredith yelled at her. I'm a little "what?" about Denny myself. And I was thinking that no, the original interns weren't that bad, but hey, Bailey was actually TEACHING them, not all wrapped up in contests and stuff.

Uh...speaking of rants...

re: Denny/Izzy
Can we say mental illness? No big mystery there.

Why on earth is Sadie on the show? Izzy should stay and Sadie should leave. This girl bugs me more than Meredith does. Dead Denny thing is to weird. If Shonda loved the character Denny, then why did she allow him to die off in the first place? Now this story has no sense at all, unless Izzy is going to die. I don't care what anyone says, I can't stand MerDer, please end them, or show less of them. Thank you.

I'm so tired of people with ADD insisting that television shows resolve conflicts and reveal mysteries within one or two episodes, or threaten "... I'm going to quit watching." On HBO and Showtime series', there would be plot lines that would appear and disappear and reappear, sometimes streaming througn an entire season or two, and it made things interesting. You'd be watching, and then... "Oh, yeah. I forgot about that." And that plotline would reemerge as a thread in the fabric of the drama. Now, people need to have everything wrapped up in a week or two, or they get frustrated or lose interest in the show. Let this Denny thing play out. It might be going somewhere, even if you don't understand where that is, just yet. Good God, people. Grow up and show a little patience. Or let it be, and watch "Deal or No Deal". They usually wrap everything up by the end of the hour, so you can eat your Hot Pocket, go to bed, and not have to worry about unresolved story lines.

Jimmy re: the chief

I don't think he knows that's why they were doing it! I got the impression that as Bailey and Callie said they went a little crazy. I don't think they are taking the interns' motivations into account yet, especially since they were all so calm. They're looking at the symptom not the disease.

Why is Izzie still on the show?

Someone seriously answer me. I have no idea, her character has had no direction for years.

And now Sadie is as annoying as she was on Alias. It's that smirk.

It's the drama around the learning that acually excites me, dorkily. The appendectomy, Christina struggling with it, the residents making the interns present, I want to see more of that. More surgeries with the surgeons struggling and being instructed and learning about themselves, their capabilities, what they want to do with their lives, that's the best.
