Okay, so I'm aware that I've been a little lax of late with my TV commentary. Sorry. I've literally been too busy to sit down and take the time to write. I've failed to comment on the loss of my LoVe relationship (I was so depressed that I didn't even watch this week's episode yet. I'll get around to it after I recover from another huge shock...)

And that shock which I am referring to would be Grey's Anatomy.

SPOILERS: DO NOT READ AHEAD UNLESS YOU HAVE SEEN THE EPISODE.

Wtf ? Killing Meredith Grey ? Is that really a good idea ? After all, it is GREY'S Anatomy. And all the time they were trying to save her, I kept thinking "How can she die when her best friend never got to tell her that she was engaged ?" I was crying so hard. My mom, being the person she is, was like "It's just a TV show." And maybe she's right, but I can't be on her side right now. I absolutely love this show and will be very disappointed if she dies. There are other characters I love, sure (in fact, Meredith's not even my favorite...she's not even in my top 3) but I feel that it would be hard to watch an episode without the central character and her narration that has been in every single episode.

When the episode was almost over (and I was sitting on the couch crying my eyes out) my mom was sitting there watching me and I sat, transfixed, staring at the television. When she woke up and saw Dylan, my stomach literally dropped. I felt as if I was on a roller coaster which had just plummeted. But when she turned her head, I was like "Oh my God. Please tell me it's not Denny. Don't let Denny be there...no, no, no." When I saw him, I was like "Oh my God...she's gonna die." The first words out of my mouth were "Oh my God. Not Denny. Oh my God...I didn't think she'd [Shonda Rimes] actually do it!" Which precipitated the comment from my mother. I got kind of angry and had to leave the room.

So here I am, stranded in disbelief-ville, over what happened. I keep hoping she'll live (and she might...it's literally 50/50 here...I don't know which way the cards will fall) but I'm preparing myself for her death. Personally, I think that would be a bad decision. It feels like the writers wrote themselves into a hole. But if anyone can get them out of it, it's Shonda. However, it's gonna be interesting to see how she's planning on doing that.
