brightlywovenOh Grey's Anatomy. I love you. I love you for so many reasons, but most of all I love your unintentional hilarity.
I was patiently awaiting my latest shipment of episodes from my sister-in-law, when I discovered all the missing episodes were on youtube. In the devouring, I found these moments of awesome:
- Meredith detects a patient has visual field deficits, and so does a tumour dance *in front of the patient*. Awesome
- Last season's amnesiac patient comes back with *a fake pregnancy*. Awesome.
- Meredith (a second year doctor) comes up with 'a way to cure brain tumours' by surfing the net. Apparently all those people who published their results didn't think of applying it to people. Based on this she (a second year doctor) develops 'A Clinical Trial' and starts recruiting patients 5 weeks later. The science of Awesome.
- The guy she originally diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour is still alive and able to talk 5 weeks later. Unbelievable Awesome.
- Meredith's 'brain tumour' cure (a virus injected into the brain) makes patients die on the table. 11 of them in a row. Death by Awesome.
- Boy encased in concrete, who is wailing that he's like 'Han Solo in carbonite'. Solid Awesome
- Patients with brain tumours having 'we're about to die' sex. Sexy Awesome
- Two words - Sparkle Pager! Awesome cakes.
And then the not-so-awesome
- Fake pregnancy becomes stress reaction becomes suicide attempt becomes, actually, woman's husband left her 'because she has borderline personality disorder' and the guy who was prepared to stand by her during massive trauma and amnesia (last season) and fake pregnancy and stress reaction and suicide attempt (this season) suddenly cuts loose because 'there's nothing he can do'. Yegads. Label much?
- The hot and bossy surgeon who didn't want to have sex at work is gay. Of course. (in show's defense, there is at least one other bossy female surgeon who is not gay)
- The girl-love begins with a kiss that is ostensibly to sexually frustrate a boy-doc. Hmmm.
