Season Premieresssssss!

So, yea.  Got a little carried away with the s' there, I'm not sure what happend.  But you'll also note that I'm too lazy to go back and fix it.

At any rate, as I'm sure you're well aware, last night was the 2 hour season premiere Grey's Anatomy spectacular of bloody medical drama.


I pretty much loved it.  I thought the trio of ladies who came in from the limo accident were all very good and I loved the scene when Kathy Baker was exclaiming over one of the men they brought in only to find out later that he wasn't actually her husband, just her best friend's husband who she'd been having an affair with.  Shame on you, Kathy Baker! (and can I just quickly tell you how much I love her now that she's moved from the 'crazy mom' to the 'interesting older lady' character?  She used to always play someone's crazy mom or something.  I didn't love it)

This may be sacrilege to Shonda Rhimes, but I'm just not sure how I feel about the army guy.  I think it's a good idea for a character and I definitely think it's about time Christina got some play, I just don't know about that actor.  Did anyone else find it wooden and awkward (and maybe even a little creepy) when he said, "YEA, SO" while he was getting out of the ambulance and the chief asked him if he really trached (sp?) a guy with a ballpoint pen?  I don't know, delivery was off or something and it just set the tone all wrong for me.  Maybe I'm being nitpicky.  Wouldn't be the first time.


I did like the whole Christina impaled by an icicle situation.  I like seeing her as the patient when she's bossing everyone around and being rude as opposed to season two when she had the ectopic pregnancy and spent an entire episode crying.  This was way better.


I'm super glad Rose is gone, but I did think it was kind of anticlimactic that she just up and went to pediatrics after basically stabbing Derek in the middle of an operation.  Yea yea "accident" whatever, she is a scrub nurse and she should know better, I think she should have gotten in trouble.  But then this is Grey's Anatomy and Izzie got to keep her job after cutting some guy's LVAD wire and almost killing him, so I guess they can't really punish Rose for scratching some guy's hand, right?

Anyway, I thought it was a pretty good episode and I'm looking forward to the rest of the season (at least the closest thing we got to trying to save a deer this time was Derek telling Meredith that she was like a deer), but I'm a little bitter that it'll be two weeks before there's another new episode.  I am not much of one for waiting.




Now then, obviously since I watched Grey's live yesterday, I had to wait until today to watch The Office online.  It was a tough call, especially when Toni called and invited me over to watch with her.  I wanted to go, but I knew that I would just end up trying to jump into Grey's in the middle and then I would get frustrated that I didn't know what was going on.  Anyway, now that I've seen The Office, here are my thoughts:


I just really never get tired of Jim & Pam.  They're so super cute and the whole proposing at the rest stop lunch meet-up because he couldn't stand waiting any longer might be the cutest thing ever.


The rest of the episode was quite excellent, but I gotta be honest, the only thing that really stands out for me is the engagement thing.  Loved it.


And the only other thing I have to say is hooray for the weekend, it could not have come soon enough!
