My Thursdays have a Meaning Again pt. 2

Now, I think "obsessed" is kind of a strong word. Do I have a Grey's Anatomy poster? Yes. Do I schedule my classes around Grey's Anatomy? Yes. Do I sign my name "Mrs. Meagan O'Malley"? No... I draw the line somewhere. Maybe I'm not obsessed, per se... but let's just say I'm a pretty big fan of the McSexiest show on television.

So, last season left us at Burke and Christina's wedding. Meredith really wants them to get married just to prove that love can survive the twisted world they live in. Her relationship with Derek is on the rocks and she thinks Christina and Burke's marriage will prove that they can make it, too. But, Burke leaves Christina at the altar realizing that he was pushing her too far (and that he's a homophobic jerk) and she was only doing this to please him.

With no wedding, Meredith thinks it's a symbol that her and Derek can never be. Meanwhile, it's Derek who feels like he's been left my Meredith over and over again. He tells her he loves her and that if it should end, she should be the one to end it.

But, George probably has it the worst time of it. Callie wants to have his baby, Izzie confesses his love for him, and he failed his intern exam and initially decides to leave Seattle Grace. He proceeds to try for a baby with Callie, leaves Izzie hanging, and at the beginning of the fourth season, repeats his internship year.

Bailey is pissed that the Callie was promoted to Chief Resident, instead of her.

Derek is offered the position of Chief of Surgery, but turns it down because the best person for the job already has it.

Adel is in the hospital because she's PREGNANT with Richard's baby, but loses it. Despite that, the couple seems to reconciliate a little.

Addison, upset that she can't have a baby, starts questioning her life and what it means and all of that. She eventually decides to leave and start her own show.

Ok, fast-forward seventeen days and it's the beginning of season four.

Almost all of our favorite interns are now residents and have interns of their own. George, who is repeating his intern year and pissed about it, is assigned to Meredith.

Christina and her interns are working with the severed arm of a pregnant woman that Meredith and her interns are working on. Alex and his interns are working with a patient that was in a car crash with minor injuries. But, he gets so hungry he starts eating medical supplies and needs surgery.

Shepard is working with a guy who has a smashed skull and pretty much can't move unless he wants to die.

Poor Izzie can't find anything to do until a little boy pulls her out to his dad's car where there is a hurt deer. The boy begs her to help the deer while his dad tries to tell him that the deer will die and then they will eat it. Izzie, convinced by the child's plight proceeds to perform surgery on the deer while her interns look on with distain.

But, she saves the deer and says to the interns "I can't believe I got the duds."

One of the other interns is Lexi Grey, Meredith's half-sister. George knows who she is and tries to warn Meredith, but isn't successful. Derek is caught between the two women at one point and realizes is that Lexi is the woman he was flirting with at the end of season three in the bar.

Lexi, whose mother just died of hiccups, is desperate for a relationship with Meredith who is less than interested.

Derek has the unfortunate job of telling Christina that Burke isn't coming back.

Meredith breaks it off with Derek, but then proceeds to have "break-up sex" with him, suggesting that this relationship is likely not over.

But, here's the kicker... the doorbell rings at Meredith, Izzie, and Alex's house. Izzie answers and it's George standing on the step and he says, "I love you, too."

And that's the end!

I love this show! Seriously!
