#grey's anon

[zaffrenotes]

About the Grey's Anatomy ask: I am shocked because I thought he was going to ride that wave till the very end 'cause what else is he going to do? Or maybe he thought my kids are almost out of college I don't need to bring in the bacon anymore, peace out!

The news took me by surprise as well, Nonny - there had been no indication that Chambers wanted to leave the show. for the life of me I can’t remember him taking on any other roles outside of Grey’s (the last movie role I remember him having is a B-role in The Wedding Planner, opposite J-Lo, and that was in 2001) even though IMDB tells me he’s done work on other shows/films during his tenure with Grey’s. I hope whatever he does next makes him happy, and

...at least Karev didn’t get Shonda’d (i.e. killed off in some extreme fashion) so he *could* come back later on, even for just an episode or two.

Olivia! This is your Grey’s anon I am literally the worst communicator and I’ve been meaning to send you this for months but life just… started coming at me and wouldn’t stop!!!

Anyway, I mostly wanted to say that I am trying to hang on and finish the latest season of Grey’s but I have started and stopped so often I have kind of lost the thread :/ Although the part where Owen is considering going to a hospital in the middle of nowhere and therefore possibly leaving Seattle Grace Mercy West Grey Sloan is SPEAKING TO ME. If I do watch to the end and that doesn’t happen, I will cry.

I can not believe been a year since I got Disney and watched Private Practice and shouted at you about it. I am not going to renew my subscription to try and have a #screenfreesummer so no rewatches for me but Charlotte still owns my entire heart.

ALSO. You have bewitched me body and soul with the latest Kacey Musgraves album. I am OBSESSED. It has been the soundtrack to so much of the last month for me. Dry Spell (sitting on the washing machine anyone?? It cracks me up EVERY time) and everybody wants to be a cowgiiiiiiirl but nobody wants to put in the work!!!!!! Anyway. Bangers only.

And finally- I can not believe you started watching Chicago Fire and I wasn’t around I am SO SORRY. I appreciate your mother very much for being the driving force behind you watching, she really is an icon. I get that it’s not entirely your thing but I am glad you gave it a gooooo

And finally, finally the new Rodrigo album also owns my entire heart. I have literally skipped down the streets of my town to Stupid Song and I am a tax-paying adult. But it is SO SO good!!!!

And CONGRATULATIONS again on your diss!!! I have literally been here since before the garden centre days and it’s been wiiiiildd to see! I’m so proud of my far away, anonymous internet bestie lmao

helloooo! sorry life has been so non-stop, hopefully you have some time to rest and relax soon <3 it took me a lot of energy to finish the last season of grey's too I get it....but maybe push through....

yes, charlotte forever! when her actress showed up on chicago fire I YELLED. lol yeah my mom was def the pusher for the show and while I enjoy it, it's a little too heterosexual for me at this point in my life lol to really grab my attention in a deeper way. like even the queer characters feel kind straightwashed idk. it is good brain off tv though I love stella kidd with my whole heart!

and woo on kacey and olivia! stupid song also makes me feel like a teen in a coming of age film every single time!

thank you!!! I am so excited I finished final edits now and all I have to do is format checks and submit. thanks for sticking with me this long appreciate ya <3

Thank you pal <3 and getting dinner with my mom and then walking my little bestie mini poodle. nothing better <3 will muna walk tomorrow and also going on a boat! thank you so much, this program has truly put me through the ringer huh

Also, do you mind sharing what about the smutty hockey players you don’t like? I’m curious cause you have A+ taste and I didn’t know about this show until like… yesterday and now it’s everywhere but other than smut I have no idea what the show is about and I trust you!

sure haha. I want to make clear these are all very me specific issues. I know why people like this and you totally could to. it boils down to three major things (1) I honestly am at a point in my life where if a show doesn't have a woman as a main character it's tough for me to enjoy lol (2) there are a lot of time skips. like a lot. and I get that this pacing might work in book form but as a viewer with no knowledge of the book it's jarring. (3) without the benefit of an internal monologue of either character (which I am sure is good in the book!) it was very hard for me to click with the emotional beats, the dialogue is very minimal so I was like....okay we want to fuck....but what are we thinking...tell me. please. don't just micro-expression it to me. or pant in each other's faces more.

once again very just me but wasn't clicking and that's ok lol

I have watched the first ep of 22, please share your thoughts!!! My first one was: why do Teddy and Owen get to live when Link dies! But Link made it - I swear when he was on the phone with Jo and saying goodbye I was… not okay BUT BELTRAN DESERVED BETTER AND SO DID I. Loved the new intern being lost and getting operated on by The Meredith Grey on her first day. Griffiths’ intern is cocky- always need one of those. Sweet Webber and Jo interactions! What did I miss (it is late I should probably be asleep so I might have missed Key Details)

yay you know link is all good! okay so my biiiiig issue is how they offed beltran. like I very much believe grey's needs to add new characters regularly because it's essentially a soap opera. we need new blood! but they constantly bring people on for a season, barely give us a chance to know them, then they are gone. it's so frustrating! and not good storytelling! and you'll see but I hate what they use her death to motivate amelia's character to make a random choice. annoying!!

I know it is Music Day so feel free to ignore this but I’m watching the final ep of S21 of Grey’s and they’re about to show the new intern class and I am willing to bet money that the man Griffiths cheated on Adam’s with is in the class. I love CHAOS. Also so happy for Link and Jo- I hope this relationship is functional. Teddy didn’t deserve to see Owen holding Nora in his arms like he was off to war but me? I deserve the drama!!! Also Jules and Ndugu?????? Like…. I am low-key vibing with it…….. can’t wait to see that chaos unfurl lmao

I WAS RIGHT!!!! The man has turned up as an intern!!!! SHONDA RHIMES I LOVE YOU Owen is currently telling Teddy he loves her al I can hear is LIES LIES LIES god I love television akdbd’dbd’dbd « it’s just a failure of imagination » GET HIM TEDDY. EXPLOSION IN THE HOSPITAL JUST WHEN WE THIUGHT THE COAST WAS CLEAR SHONDA RHIMES INHATE YOU. Also I am so glad I have the beginning of S22 ready and waiting cause if I had to wait a year at this point I’d be suing!!!!! If Shonda killed Link……. Olivia, if Shonda killed Like IS2G

ahhh love that you liveblogged that crazy ass finale to me!! the explosion!!!! I too love chaos so I was very happy with the episode overall. at first I wasn't sure about jules and ndugu but it's very old school grey's and the chemistry is good (I think adelaide has chemistry with everyone because she's so hot lol) so I am growing on it. and I am glad you have it too waiting all summer for my link answer was the woooooorst

GREY’S ANON UPDATE: she couldn’t sleep with Cass (which is INSANE cause have we all seen Sophia Bush, love of my life!) BUT HE BETRAYED THEM I actually screamed, you are RIGHT the suffering they DESERVE, Owen especially. Mr. I don’t want to open the marriage all of our problems are because of YOU. Well BOO HOO. I hope this isn’t the end of Sophia Bush, I need her to get hired ASAP. A bit tired of Webber, Catharine and Meredith fighting though, it’s been 21 seasons don’t you guys know each other by now. BUT ANYWAY. Going to continue tonight, my treat for surviving the day.

Also the character of Marcus the OBGYN low-key has me cracking up. I hope they make him a solid side-character with some killer dialogue to go with his confidence lmao. He makes me feel soooooo old

yes literally WILD anyone would say no to sophia bush proof teddy has no taste!! and yeah I want owen to be miserable at all time but wish he'd always stop making the poor women he married miserable by proxy. and I agree, like meredith is meredith and will always be meredith why do they expect her to be anything else lol. and omg!!! I really like him too I hope there is more of him he's fun!

Okay so I am finally catching up Grey’s (can you guess who this is). I’m on S21, which took me about a year to get into but I’ve been bingeing all weekend. Of all the things on my bingo card « Teddy and Owen open marriage » was NOT one of them but it probably should have been. What a car crash of a couple, good grief. I’m so annoyed!!! Also Koracick and his sexism can get stuffed. Kinda low-key rooting for Jules and Kwan to get together though, idk if that makes me a pariah- it has little to do with them and a lot more to do with the fact that I am into both of them. Sad to see Yasuda leave but Schmidt low-key made me proud, he has grown so much!!! I am procrastinating sleep cause I know tomorrow is going to kick my ass so this is what I am doing instead. Watch this space for Regret tomorrow morning…

good morning! hopefully you aren't walking up to too much regret lol. hahaha teddy and owen's open marriage plot actually made me so happy because they were both so miserable. what owen deserves <3 and I get it you aren't alone, I like jules and kwan's chemistry too! jules and yasuda broke my heart though, they were so good only to be taken away so quick! schmidt's final episode was so perfect I cried a little lol. he is lucky he got to leave on such a high and not be ruined like other characters have by their final episodes (cough cough alex)
