  • Ask Matt | 3/17/2008
    Q: I don't know if you've been watching Eli Stone, but I have been, and while I am still not totally sold on the series, I am finding it enjoyable. At the least, I'm trying to give it a fair shake. I like most of the characters (at least the ones I'm supposed to like) except for one: Eli's secretary, Patty (played by Loretta Devine). The main reason I don't like the character is her inexplicable hatred and malice towards Taylor, Eli's former fiancée. From what we've seen so far, Taylor loves ... read more
  • Forgive and Forget | Grey's Anatomy | 10/19/2007
    Episode Recap: "The Heart of the Matter""I forgive you." Did I hear that right? Callie, calmly telling George that he made a mistake by sleeping with Izzie, but that she was willing to forgive him because of their wedding vows? Thank god she changed her mind by the end of the episode, because I'm not sure I could have forgiven Callie for letting Gizzie off the hook so easily! Not after everything we've been through in this whole messy love triangle! Though something tells me we won't have anything resembling closure here for quite some time.And while I secretly knew that Callie wasn't really planning on a lunchtime brawl, it was fun watching Izzie prepare for the possibility of one. I think it was the trash-talking that I enjoyed the most, especially when Izzie quipped, "I'm just saying, I learned to fight in a trailer park. Where'd Callie learn to fight? Boarding school?" Oh, Izzie, I may not like the idea of you and George being together, but I do admire your passion to fight... read more
  • Episode Recap: "Let the Truth Sting" | Grey's Anatomy | 10/12/2007
    When the episode opened with Alex and Lexie checking each other out in the elevator, I thought we were going to see the two of them getting cozy tonight. That was so not the case. Instead, Alex got tied down with the "old intern," Dr. Norman Shales (Edward Herrmann), who meant well but managed to get in the way more than he helped. Sticking with the "old dog, new tricks" theme, Dr. Sloan and Dr. Webber decided to take their chances with a radical procedure in order to prove that they still had that magic touch. Their goal was to treat a woman's cancer while preserving her ability to speak. Fortunately for the patient, Derek's last-minute expertise helped to make the surgery a success. The only down-side she faced was dealing with the backlash of the brutally honest confessions she made to her friends shortly before the procedure took place. Yes, I was pretty sure her friends had left the building for good, after having been told that they either "wore their pants too tight," or... read more
  • May 17, 2007: Didn't We Almost Have It All | Grey's Anatomy | 5/18/2007
    I can't decide what I was most surprised about since I thought there were multiple shockers in this season's finale episode. So I will make a list of things that I did not see coming:— I did not expect Burke to call off the wedding. If anyone was going to put a stop to it, I thought it would've been Cristina. Apparently, Burke could tell Cristina just wasn't ready.— I did not expect George to be the only intern that didn't pass the exam. Alex would've been more predictable.— I did not expect Callie to be named new chief resident over Bailey.— I did not expect Izzie to (gag me) profess her undying love to George with hopes that he would reciprocate the feelings (once again, gag me).While I'm on the subject of shockers, let me also list things that were more predictable and not shocking:— I was not surprised that Rebecca's husband Jeff finally showed up, and she wanted Alex to give her a reason to not return to her hubby. I was pleased that Jeff was played by... read more
  • May 10, 2007: Testing 1-2-3 | Grey's Anatomy | 5/11/2007
    How many of you were sitting there waiting for somebody to ask Addison how L.A. was? Almost the entire hour went by and Sloan finally asked her: "How was L.A.?" Addison replied with, "L.A. was different." And different would be the perfect way to describe the opinions expressed in the comments section last week. I thank you for your honesty, but most importantly, for respecting the opinions of others (including mine). Hey, different strokes for different folks, right? Now, onto this episode...Wow. For those of you who were like me and felt really bad for Meredith after her father Thatcher slapped her last week, how about this time? I'm going to sound like a broken record, but sometimes the best acting is reacting. The way Ellen Pompeo reacted as Meredith while Thatcher yelled at her, blaming her for Susan's death, was acting at its best. I just wanted to hug her. Just like the Chief did toward the end. I love their relationship. Meredith: "Just because you slept with my mother, it... read more
