If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can't point to precise examples, but I think they messed up Bailey for a while there. I feel that they have been most consistent with Cristina.

The wig on JAR was ridiculously bad. The one on daddy Grey was pretty awful too.

The show's not as simultaneously funny and heartbreaking as it used to be, but it's improved a lot since the depths of the Denny/Gizzy suck and gotten back on track.

I guess I think that with Cristina, once Burke left she was almost non existant on the show. It is consistent, though, because her character was lost. Bailey? I think was similar. When they focused on Izzy/George (horrible idea) and then again with fucked up Mirage!Denny, they really lost their way as a show.

I'm intrigued that we are seeing McDreamy stuff that has nothing to do with Meredith.

Empanada report: I have no clue. There are green beans and spices and corn and broccoli and cheese. It's tasty!

I think I feel where they lost Bailey was her reaction to the Izzy insanities.

liese, where are you?!?!?!?

Oh MAN. 41 seconds in and the US scores. This is going to be that game, isn't it. I think I won't watch after all.

Izzy insanities.

which ones? the cutting the L-Vad wire (which was very Not Bailey, I agree) or the brain tumor nonsense?

Mostly the L-VAD wire. Not very Nazi at all.

Yep. That was in the beginning though. Before everyone else fell apart (I think).

I think that Izzy is the thing that makes the show suck. I really love not having her there at all or very much.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'll admit, my burning irritation with Katherine Heigel contributed a lot to my not liking the show. And I missed Burke something awful. It was nice having someone that kept McDreamy in check.

This is true too. Burke would have been a nice foil to McDreamy this season, given all that is going on.
