ARMYMAN
here are my thoughts on owen from grey's anatomy:
WHY IS HE ON THIS SHOW?
i understand, okay, so cristina needs someone dark and twisty like her, except with like a little halo. and that's owen. i was fine with him when he first appeared (being all manly and macho and totally rebellious and armyman), and i was fine with his PTSD (it gave a lot of depth to his character as well as cristina's in that she is trying hard at something that isn't all about surgeries, and plus it was really touching), but he's super annoying, super whiny and totally sucks the fun out of grey's.
he is like... that one dude at the party that arrives drunk, drinks some more and then ends up hurling into the fish tank. he starts out cool. proceeds onto being cool. but then just ruins everything. you have mcdreamy, the dreamy one. mcsteamy, the steamy one. and owen, the traumatized past (versus where you would have burke, the sexy one. that is my personal bias yeah).
his traumatized past was fine. he got counseling for that, but anything fun that cristina ever does is like... gone. and not like the cute and happy fun, but like the sour bad fun where she's dark and she's twisty. like it's weird enough that meredith has everything in life now (minus, uh, that baby she SPOILER miscarried :x), but a bright and happy cristina isn't fulfilling. it's hella odd.
i was really surprised when he tried attacking the shooter in the latest season finale. bc he pretty much was useless. got shot and crumpled to the ground before anything happened. like, really, come on dude. you were in the army for a jillion years. pretty sure you'd know how to handle that sit.
this is too many words about owen but i just =_= don't understand that point of him of the show. even teddy and arizona are a lot more likable than him.
p.s. maybe this is just me really liking burke and wishing that he never had left the show... bc burke was super manly, and making him not even mention cristina in his harper avery award is whack to his character. he totally wouldn't have done that.
p.p.s. lexie needs to go, too. and season 2 izzie needs to come back.
