Not to mention the fact that the character of Grey is a poor man's Ally McBeal and is oh so utterly obnoxious. That bitch doesn't deserve a man.

Grey drives me nuts but I like the other characters. It is reminiscent of McBeal. Barf. My dad called that show Ally Getreal.

You think she's evil? How weird. She seems cool to me, except that she wants to stay with her husband if he still loves her. Otherwise she seems rad. Remember when she told that patient that she owes Ellen Pompeo an apology? And she's done other logical cool things.
I told Diss to keep his apartment, but he wouldn't....

It seems like black doctor wouldn't like that Sandra Oh kept her apartment, especially at least that she is lying.
I really like the show. I never liked Ally McBeal, thought it was soooo stupid.

Ha!

The first two seasons of Ally McBeal were brilliant. After that? Oh, it was so, so wretched. Unwatchable.

To me sleeping with your best friend is a deal breaker and you just move on after that. I don't know why he stays with her if he is not in love with her (he clearly isn't but does still have feelings for her). She does seem to have a good head on her shoulders professionally, its the other stuff she is a mess with.

I agree, it was really creative and fresh. How did they ruin it? By keeping Ally single in that pathetic way (looking for her one and only soul mate fantasy instead of a real man). She never grew! It's like, "Enough already with the fantasy land, you're pushing 40 girl!" Hence, the new title, Ally Getreal. Oh I love my dad.

Meh.
I think her character is well written, in the fact that she's not clearly a bitch. We want to not like her, but she's actually pretty cool. At least she's not emo like Pompeo.

But, I agree he does not seem to be in love with her, and so I don't get why he chose her either.

How did they ruin it? Too many stunts and they made it all about sex. Sex sex sex. That was all it was about. SEX. Orgasmic waddle stroking reached new heights. I knew it was all over as soon as Ally and Ling shared their lesbian kiss. It completely ruined what was once a fantastic show. Then they killed off Billy in the most inane way, had a musical episode (!!!), Renee just vanished into thin air, Courtney Thorne Smith chopped off all her hair and was never heard from again, JON BON JOVI joined the cast (!!!!), they canned Mark LeGros, and then they created a tween daughter for Ally out of the same thin air that Renee disappeared into. Oh, it was so wretched that I'm still cringing three years after the fact.

Ouch, you poor baby! Sounds like you stayed with the show way too long!

I didn't say that, I just said sleeping with your man's best friend is a deal breaker. Period.

Oh, right, you said "evil wench". Sorry, that's way different.

I also have to add that I LOVE Sandra Oh. She's fantastic.

I love her as well! I thought it was great when Christina told McDreamy off, for leading Meredith on.

I'm not sure anymore whether or not I want him and Meredith to get back together. Meredith really gets on my nerves sometimes! But McDreamy needs to make up his mind and stick to it. I'm sure he and Mer will get back together, thogh. But like all such shows, they'll drag it out as long as they can.

I really hope they don't break up Christina and Burke. I love them together!

Yes, and I can't wait! I didn't start watching it until the end of last season, so I missed several episodes.

The voice overs annoy me, too. That's the "hot" thing now. Seems most new shows have a narrator, and it drives me nuts!

Grey has really been grating on my nerves as well. But I still love the show! Partly for the Dempsey drool factor. But I love several of the other characters. Bailey, George, Yang... love them! And I like Yang and Burke as a couple.

I've actually warmed up to the wife a little. She's shown moments of humanness, and she's a lot stronger than Grey. But I agree about the sleeping with his best friend. No way I'd take someone back if they slept with my best friend.

I do think McDreamy has some feelings for the wife, but isn't "in love" with her anymore. He seems to have a sense of obligation to try to make it work with her.
