GREY'S - New Pictures

Oct 20, 2010 22:26

Little tiny theory about Grey's, because I just saw these new promo pictures for episode 7X07 and I'd like to get to the bottom of this. Mostly, I'd like to know why Lexie Grey's faces always BREAK MY HEART.

( Oh, yeah, spoiler alert.... )

Hmmm... yes. SO MUCH TO SPECULATE ON!!!

And you're right with your Watch the shot not even be in the show comment, because I've had that happen to me on NUMEROUS occasions already this season :(

Also, the A/L/A triangle came from an ENews spoiler. I think it has now been refuted. BUT, you never can trust the spoiler people (or the freaking writers for that matter!!).

I also think the A/A thing is weird. But I also think I'm in the minority by saying I don't think it NEEDED TO BE WEIRD. I feel the weirdness is a result of incredibly lazy writing, inconsistent character development and a complete lack of any better ideas... Which is very sad.

LAZY WRITING? ON GREY'S? HA! (sarcasm)

I agree, A/A COULD be very interesting and neat to watch. I think I'm just worried because of how they've "developed" (ha!) everything else so far this season.

At this point, I feel cheated by what they appear to be doing. It seems they're sticking April with Alex and Jackson with Teddy (assuming that happens...) because WHO ELSE IS THERE?! And that's what's disappointing about it, I guess. It doesn't feel genuine and it hasn't even happened yet.

Haha! Yes! If they were intent on Alex/April from the beginning then I think they should've scrapped the April is a virgin storyline in favour of something that actually gave some depth to their relationship.

I'm still fixated by the fact that April tripped over Reed and then freaked out too much (understandably) to be able to figure out a blood trail led to the elevator and hence, Alex was in there for longer than he probably needed to be. Also, they both saw Reed, that's a pretty powerful connection. But, I think the writers will skip all of that potential common ground in favour of something MUCH easier (read: lazier!) to write... ie. a bar hookup and a 'deflowering'.

An A/L/A triangle only interests me from only two (extremely selfish) perspectives! One, screen time for Alex! And two, bitch!Lexie is fun Lexie to watch!!! I could enjoy her ramping up her inner vamp in the face of some virginal competition....!

helen_halliwell October 21 2010, 03:45:45 UTC

So true! I didn't even think about that...I forgot April saw Reed. That would be an amazing connection and it would completely make sense and work...

...so naturally that'll never be brought up. Alex will bet Jackson he can sleep with her, blah, blah, blah. (That seriously better not happen.)

Bitch!Lexie is fun, isn't she? :)

And I'm down for anything that grants Alex more screen time!

Oh, she is looking at Mark! There's a picture of bts Mark pic in the bar as well. http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/8460/madly7315.jpg

I don't mind the glances and avoiding, so long as they lead to something. And I just don't think they'd drag out Mark and Lexie that long without it resulting in something. But that's just my opinion.

helen_halliwell October 21 2010, 03:15:34 UTC

I DID see that, but I wasn't positive he was in the bar! Now that I'm looking again, I think you may be right :)

lizzy29 October 21 2010, 07:00:17 UTC

And check out the behind scenes pic on my page mark is def at the bar. The show has got be so desperate that i will take anything lexie breaks my heart so bad when shes sad!

helen_halliwell October 21 2010, 11:07:54 UTC

I DID! I didn't realize it was from the same episode right away.

I KNOW. Lexie's faces kill me. But you're right, I'll take anything at this point too.

violet1979 October 21 2010, 07:42:49 UTC

So, we're back to looks and glances and avoiding. *sigh* Exactly, and that's getting pretty old by now, even for a crazy shipper like me who LOVED worrying about their relationship in season 6. For in the meantime, some ILYs happened + patient's stories about regrets in love galore + even some personal growth for both of them = still not leading anywhere. It's getting harder to make sense of this from week to week!

And I remember something along the lines that there is hope for M/L, but it will take some time and come along in an UNEXPECTED way. I may be imagining this line?!?! lol Anyway, I still cling to the hope they can somehow deliver on this, however unlikely it seems right now. And yes, I KNOW I'm being stupid, for: THIS SHOW! :)

helen_halliwell October 21 2010, 11:10:51 UTC

I'm with you 100%...I really do hate what they did to M/L. They honestly made their relationship seem insignificant, now all of a sudden it isn't? I don't know. But they'll always be my favorite couple, no matter what the writers do to them.

We can only hope their dignity is restored...

Yes, everything boils down to those two words...THIS SHOW!!!
