and then there were three...
So, I'm not really sure what to make of the latest George and Izzie news other than it's making me kinda sad.
I'd pretty much been deluding myself into believing they'd both stay. At the very least that Izzie would stay. And now it's just seeming more likely than ever that they'll both be gone come next season.
On the one hand, okay, it's nice for the actors. Whatever. To *ahem* quote Izzie, WHAT ABOUT ME??? They're Bailey's babies. They're part of the fab five. That's one of my favorite dynamics on the show, and the thought of it being reduced to the, what...the terrific three or something? Not so much on the exciting for me. Maybe it's just because I was watching a lot of season one this weekend and it's made me all nostalgic, but I have several years worth of caring invested in these guys. Even when they do stupid things like, say, sleep with the dead. Or each other. I'm still just so fond of George and Izzie in a way I don't think any replacement will ever match. I think it'd put a big hole in the show.
Also, also?? Can we just take a moment to think about Alex. ALEX KAREV, THAT POOR BABY. If Izzie dies/leaves/goes into the light with Denny, I really don't want to see the fallout. Because Alex has never loved anyone like he loves Izzie. And I don't see anyone else ever coming close to her in his eyes. It hurts to think of Alex without his Izzie. Because he says things to her like this:
"I get that you're scared. But you're not going to have to feel like that again. Because I'm not going to die, Iz. And I'm not gonna cheat on you, and I'm not gonna go anywhere! 'Cause, I think you're my best shot at... I think with you... you make me better. You make me wanna BE better. You make me want to be good. And I think I can. With you. I think I can. So I'm not going anywhere, and you can stop hiding. And if you wanna be scared that's okay just be scared with me. Be scared while you scrub in with me on my first solo surgery. Okay?"
ALEX WITHOUT HIS IZZIE??? I DO NOT WANT TO WATCH THIS MISERY. :(
(And, um, if Derek operates on Izzie's magical insanity brain whatever and KILLS her? That is whole new levels of tragedy right there, people. If Heigl is out, I just really, really hope that's not how it happens.)
DelusionalMe has decided that clearly, if Izzie and George go, next season we'll get the MerDer show. And they'll have storylines AND scenes together AND lots and lots of steamy sex. Also babies and a wedding. BUT...CynicalMe has decided that what we'll really get is even more Lexie. And new Sadies and Dixons and random interns numbers one through forty-seven. Someone, please, tell me that can't be so.
Also, if you want to convince me that George and Izzie leaving is a good thing, that'd be nice too, k? Because sadhair, people. Just SAD HAIR.
