As always, here are my thoughts from last night's Grey's. And this time it actually counts as a crossover episode which was really like a two hour GA episode with a few Private Practice moments thrown in. Not that I'm complaining, I enjoyed it. However, I'm really not going to comment on the strictly PP parts, they do not concern me for the purposes of this post.
One quick question, when Sam showed up and Bailey was talking to him about how Addison was there with her best friend who used to be married to Derek's best friend, blah blah blah - isn't Mark Sloan Derek's best friend? How many best friends does this guy have?
Those worms they took out of Addison's brother's brain were extremely disgusting. I will probably have nightmares about tiny worms lodging in my brain and killing me.
I hate when they call Addison "Addi". It makes her seem like an 85 year old woman. There has to be a better nickname.
The brother is a total d-bag. But that scene with him crying when he thought he was going to die was pretty funny. Particularly when Mark said, "I don't care if he's dying, I'm gonna kill him." Or something like that.
Izzie's little intern game started out kind of dumb, but the end was good with three interns racing for the finish line, and it served two important purposes. 1 - Izzie is starting to have vision problems so the brain issue she's having is ever so slowly making its way to the surface. 2 - It proved that Meredith's really annoying friend actually is an idiot and now she can leave. I will not miss her.
Alex's little chat with Addison about if she was happy after she ran away because that's what he wants to do sometimes made me a little nervous. However, I think once Izzie's brain thing comes out it will give his character more opportunity for really good dramatic scenes once he has to deal with her dying and everything (she's totally gonna die).
I have missed sassy Miranda, and she dished it out pretty well when Sam & Mark were giving her a hard time for applying for a peds fellowship. "I smile. I smile FREQUENTLY."
This might be the most likable Taye Diggs character in awhile. Not that he's ever really unlikable, it's just that he's this hot doctor who is allergic to everything and also has asthma and all these issues with being nervous around women, and it's pretty endearing. He was pretty cute when it turned out that he was allergic to the inhaler they gave him and not having a panic attack seeing his ex-wife comforting her new boyfriend. He fist-bumped Dr. Bailey. Awww.
Owen. I'm sort of at a loss with what to think about him. After meeting the ex-fiancee and her father and hear him tell stories about them I sort of want a flashback sequence of what he was like before he left. Because apparently he was nothing like what he is now. I really dug the scene at the end of the first hour when he took Christina into the on call room. He gives a good little impassioned plea, that guy.
That song that Derek wrote for Addison at their wedding was pretty ridiculous. When Meredith was talking about how she didn't really know anything about the person he was then I was thinking, "and why would you? He sounds like someone you probably wouldn't like anyway."
I thought it was pretty great when Derek came in and threw the CT scan back at the douchy brother to prove to him that he was fine and upon being asked if Archer would be ok he replied, "He'll be an ass, just like always." ha!
I do not like where this story line is going with the aneurysm lady. And I do not like the previews for next week that show Derek yelling at Addison not to touch his patient. I'm trying to reserve judgment.
Also in the previews for next week, why is Derek punching Mark (I think that's what it was)? Is he about to turn some sort of corner in to becoming Angry Guy? That's not a good look for him.
Well, until next time, these are the days of our Grey's.
Have a great weekend and enjoy your Friday the 13th! This always brings back fond memories of the time I picked out a black cat on Friday the 13th while wearing red socks (did you know it's bad luck to wear red socks on Fridays? According to my elementary gym teacher it totally is). My father always says I'm the only person he knows who would actually do something like that. Good times. :)

I don't have too much to say on this episode. I loved how long it was. I watch Private Practice, too, so I enjoyed the whole thing. I do not like Owen - he is a weirdo, and not in a cool way. I'm glad that Sadie is gone - that story was going nowhere. I'm sad that Izzie is going to die off and I wish that Addison was back on Grey's.
That's my take :)
