Random Grey's Anatomy Opinions (Part Three)

Even without the issue of them being step-siblings, Jackson and Maggie's romance was really awful because they were both just complete dicks to each other during the relationship and long after it ended.

I was disappointed when Link and Amelia broke up because they were really wholesome and adorable, but ultimately, I found it rewarding because Amelia's best relationship was with Kai.

Meredith naming her third kid Ellis was a stupid writing decision because while her mother may have been a complicated woman who had mental health issues, she was also the woman who constantly broke down Meredith and was so verbally and emotionally abusive to her.

Amelia's friendship with Richard was a really interesting one because they were both mentors to each other at various points.

Derek was often overly critical of people, but he was 100% right to be angry at Meredith for deliberately tampering with the clinical trial and endangering Zola's adoption.

The Post-It Note wedding was fun and I wish the show had done more unique wedding things with their other couples (I know they did the Bar wedding and the ferry boat wedding, but I mean something more unique than locations).

The Webber Method was always a bad idea, and Bailey was the only one who recognized it, showcasing how she was a good chief (despite what some fans may say).

Cristina not getting a Catherine Fox award, but Meredith getting one is still irritating to me because she was the best doctor out of her entire class.

Despite being the oldest characters, Richard and Catherine were oftentimes the most immature characters.

I liked Schmitt a decent amount, but his relationship with Nico was just not that compelling because they had drama after drama with very, very, very brief moments of happiness.

Requested? Yes, by anon! (I've accidentally deleted the draft 🤦🏻‍♀️)

𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜: Miranda Bailey x reader (platonically)

𝘼/𝙣: Thank you for your appreciation <3 Hoping you'll like it!

You couldn't believe it when you heard you were being recruited to join the surgical residency group at Seattle Grace, you were so excited to start!

Your co-workers seemed nice to you, a real and an awesome friendship was born between you, and tackling this journey together would have been unique.

The only thing that didn't convince you was the chief of the residents, in short she always got angry about every single thing. To you she was just an annoying dwarf.

But in the end she managed to become your one real point of reference amidst all the confusion. She was always there when you needed her and always knew how to cheer you up.

Unfortunately, as those fantastic days existed, there were also those ones where it would take more than 100 showers to wash them off. Losing a patient has always been a big weakness for you, but thanks to Bailey, you were now stronger.

When you just couldn't do it, she always came to your side to reassure you and give you one of those speeches about your future, which sometimes scared you, but basically helped you. "Y/n, you can do more" she always repeated this phrase to you.

Today you are proud to have come this far, to have become a fantastic surgeon, thanks to the best mentor you could ever know, Miranda Bailey.

“I’m not a pediatric surgeon.”

“You touch the child whenever you speak with her. You explain conditions to the child, not just the parents. And you react to the patient as if it was your own child. And you break protocol, which is inappropriate. Except in the case of pediatric surgery. You’re not a general surgeon.

You’re a pediatric surgeon.”

I started writing the first chapter of my next WIP for "My Boy" on Tuesday. Then...Wednesday happened and I had to take the day to recover...and now I am sick, but I am hoping to get it up by the end of this weekend.

Anyway, here is a sneak peek.

---

“No, but April’s been talking for about 45 minutes straight, so…” Meredith rubs her temples. “I hope we still have a babysitter.”

Addison laughs. “I think it’d take a lot more than that to scare off Miranda Bailey.”

A deeper voice echoes from closer to the living room. “Addison’s the only smart one, I see.”

It’s still odd for Mark to see Bailey dressed down. She’s in a blouse that looks like a blue and green lava lamp design, paired with some comfy pants. 

“Thanks again for doing this,” Mark says, pulling her in for a side hug, which she quickly pulls out of.

“It may not happen if your brother doesn’t stop pestering me with lists.”

Derek leans in the doorway to the living room. “Emergency contacts, Bailey. I gave you a list of emergency contacts.”

“May I remind you that I work with everyone on that list? I don’t need Amelia or Lexie’s numbers. They’re in my phone. And let’s not get into the step-by-step instructions you left for bedtime.” Mark shifts his own bag, wondering if he can hide the notebook until he’s left the house. “Don’t get that look, McSteamy. I know you have your own.”

“I have no clue what you’re talking about,” he fibs.

“Yeah, right.” Derek scoffs. “It’s longer than mine.”

“Wow, way to stay together.”

“Anything to get Bailey off my back.”

GREY’S ANATOMY • 3.24 — “Brave New World”

[maryjkkk]

Bailey from first season

[popchoc]

I was underwhelmed by Arizona’s return. Love Arizona but yeah it could’ve been any doctor and nothing much would’ve changed since we got no updates on her life or no scenes with old friends other than Bailey. That was nice but I wanted more. The good was Mika, I love hers and Jules relationship but idk if they’ll actually invest in them since they kind of dropped Simone’s and Jules’s growing friendship and the idea of the entire group just hanging out at Meredith’s old house and being friendly a little too quickly. I understand that the interns are in trouble but I wish they’d kept the camaraderie and jokes because without the friendships it’s a regular boring medical drama. On the other hand, this episode made me realize that I as much as I like them, I really don’t care about Teddy Richard or Link. I really didn’t miss them or remember their storylines until the end especially Link he’s been kind of useless since Amelia dumped him, but I know they won’t get rid of him because that means getting rid of Scout. Too bad because he can go and take Jo and bring over Carina to be the rightful head OB she is instead of the invisible role she’s been playing for the past almost decade lol



Honestly? To me, even those moments with Bailey felt underwhelming. They are friends, the woman officiated her wedding for christ's sake... so why acting so damn formal? I guess it didn't help that they all went "world renowned blabla" (something that I already hardly buy when it comes to someone like Addison, for example), even though I do love her being amazing at her job. But you know... come on! Besides, her human side is what makes her a superstar. So yeah, some more of that would've been welcome for sure. Still, I did enjoy her being there.

I agree, it's a shame that the interns aren't that fun bunch anymore. A group like that could have a lot of potential, starting with simply being a fun watch. On the other hand, I'm having issues with Simone since pretty much the start (sorry, for some reason I just can't stand her) and by now I'm also very much done with Lucas' crying face (I bet they casted him for his droopy eyes, just to resemble Derek) and most of all his constant feeling sorry for himself - come on dude, you're a Shepherd, you're not any "less" (you're just an entitled brat who maybe simply isn't cut out to be a surgeon... you know, like 95% of the world). So I think I'm good, since them not being involved with the others only improve those scenes of the others by now.

Teddy's return was a disappointment (she was so much more interesting as Cristina's teacher and Henri's wife), but I do still like Link - though his best days were with Amelia.

Aren't Jo and Carina in the same field, but in different jobs/positions? Jo is a surgeon (now becoming an OB), while Carina is "just" a regular OB, as in not doing surgeries... right? Besides their exact titles/jobs though, I don't need everyone to be in charge. It's getting a bit old, as if job-wise there's nothing else to make a character more interesting. When Carina was introduced, she was doing her study (which we never heard of again). Now why not let her have some fun like that again? Anyone in for some crazy science, raise your hand! 🤪

I love that little joke on Grey’s Anatomy where everyone always hopes the patient is Bono.

Random Grey's Anatomy Opinions (Part Five)

Catherine's cancer coming back is an arc that has happened at least 4 times, so the emotional impact is just non-existent at this point.

Along with the last opinion, Webber needs to either die or finally retire because there's just no emotional weight to his issues anymore.

Paralleling Schmitt as chief resident to Bailey was so interesting, and I think it would've been fun to lean into that dynamic more.

Lucas and Simone are actually really wholesome, and I hope they end up together.

Grey's Anatomy is very sex-positive, which is fine (I could do without the intimate scene pretty much every episode, but this is pretty much a soap opera, so), but it's got a huge problem with people who don't really want romance or are virgins (I'm pretty sure if an ace-spec or aro-spec character walked into that hospital, the entire cast would be flabbergasted).

Yes, the show fell off after Cristina left (she was one of the best characters and was the one who made the show iconic), but the later seasons do have some really awesome storylines and characters.

Jules has two hands for a reason, and they're for holding the hands of her boyfriend and her girlfriend (I love her relationships with Blue AND Mika, okay).

The fact that so many seasons went by without giving Helm a real love interest before Mika was messed up because she deserved some of that love she desired (and she's hot as hell).

I understand that Nick is primarily Meredith's love interest, but I thought it was a shame that they moved Nick to Boston for her when he was a really great Residency Director and the writers developed a interesting mentor-mentee relationship with Lucas.

As shitty as Owen was, Burke was not much better, and Cristina deserved a love interest who was actually good to her (my vote was Teddy).

i rarely post about someone other than Link, but this scene had me hollering *spins fidget*

[horsetailcurlers2]

watching grey’s anatomy for the first time after only watching private practice: another long and obnoxious stream of my thoughts while watching (season TEN, bc i’m gonna keep doing these until someone tells me to stop)

-i guess we’re all just getting electrocuted now

-okay i never really got the mcdreamy thing to be honest but watching that man juggle…. yeah i get it

-changed my mind again he’s a stupid idiot

-cristina was really harsh but i think meredith is very much misunderstanding her point

-super random but is it weird that i kind of hate derek and meredith’s house? don’t get me wrong it’s objectively very nice but the vibes upset me. too many windows

-i adore halloween episodes. this is so fun. the musical score is insane.

-lots and lots of guest actors on this show have also been in mad men. maybe i’ll make a spreadsheet.

-a fork!!!!

-i like the OCD storyline it seems like they’re trying to do with bailey. at least so far. it’s the most interesting storyline she’s had in a while.

-arizona is kind of treating that resident girl horribly imo

-okay now meredith is just being purposefully obstinate with this whole christina situation

-so i guess we’re all just mouth kissing residents on the mouth now, huh?

-oh no i sense murphy might start to go a little off the rails

-there’s too much happening all at once! first of all, idk that i buy the chemistry between april and jackson enough for all the hoopla to make sense. second of all, i thought murphy would’ve been the one to go off the deep end. i totally should’ve foreseen ross having a breakdown. they’ve been sprinkling seeds. third of all, regarding obama just calling up derek…… okay i guess.

-NOW human resources chooses to actually involve themselves in this tomfoolery??

-the way that everyone in this show treats getting married like it’s just a fun thing to do on the weekend is driving me nuts. bc duh, jackson and april!!!!! duh you should have talked about how you want to raise your kids before you jumped into this!!

-“it’s not as if i’m insensitive to deaf culture or anything. i just think [something that is completely insensitive to deaf culture]”- jackson avery

-amelia!!! (side note i never noticed this but the shepherd sibling casting is so good. they have like the exact same eyes)

-BURKE?????

-i forgot how much this man pisses me off bc he’s comparatively much better than owen

-this scene is so interesting and part of me really wants cristina to take burke’s offer but i’m so distracted by the slow dad rock cover of “like a virgin” that they’re playing in the background. wild choice

-i will miss yang terribly but i think this is the right choice for her character

-“don’t let what he wants eclipse what you need. he is very dreamy but he is not the sun. you are.” !!!!!!!!!!!! sobbing
