SixDays

(S03E11) It's funny. It seems like these past two full seasons of Grey's have played out the same way: a kind of shaky beginning, then something clicks in and the show begins to pick up speed somewhere around the holidays, then runs like a freight train from then all the way to the finale.

It really does feel like this season is shaping up the same way last year did, doesn't it? We're back from the long holiday break and the folks at Seattle Grace are right back where we left off in November; George is dealing with his dad's health problems, Cristina and Burke aren't speaking to each other; Meredith is dealing with her dad's other family and what that means for her; and Alex and Addison are dancing around the fact that they're kind of sweet on each other.
