Shonda Rhimes: Heigl requested lighter story in moment half of season - TCA Report

The always lively ABC show-runner panel just ended. Included on the panel were Shonda Rhimes, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, Marc Cherry, Greg Berlanti and Silvio Horta. Lindelof made some jokes, and Cherry tried to translate sports metaphors to musical theater metaphors. But we knew one que…

Watching TV on the job


Uh-o, somebody just blew the whistle. You know how you were spending your lunch hour (or however many minutes you can get absent with while eating your tuna fish sandwich) in your office cubicle catching up on that episode of Ugly Betty or Grey’s Anatomy you missed? Well, you’re not alone. Nielsen…

Grey’s Anatomy: Lay Your Hands On Me

“Call me when she codes.” - Hahn

The potential of healing. Does it work? Perhaps. I think it went a little too far when everyone who “the healing lady” touched got better, but I prefer to play the skeptic and Hahn’s line did it for me. You’re a kook and I’ll be back when you’re on the verge of d…

Shonda Rhimes: In the Limelight

When you take in the name “Shonda Rhimes” what words come to intellect? I’m pretty certain those words are “Grey’s” and “Anatomy.” But what you may not know is that before writing gripping TV series such as Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice, Rhimes plus put pen to paper for The Princess Diarie…

Grey’s Anatomy: Crash Into Me (part two)


“Dr. Hahn. Shut-up.” - Meredith
The final pre-strike episode of Grey’s Anatomy. Well… technically, there’s one more that’s been shot (the notorious Bailey narrated episode), but who knows when that’ll air. January whether we’re lucky. possibly February. besides, I liked that one a lot. It defi…

Grey’s Anatomy: Crash Into Me (part one)

“No one ever better shout me Nazi again.” - Bailey

Nothing says Happy Thanksgiving like white supremacy and ambulance accidents! OK… well, not really. But that’s what we got as Grey’s Anatomy slowly winds down to its final pre-WGA Strike episodes. There are only two more in the can and pr…

Grey’s Anatomy: Forever Young


“You want me to fake a heart attack? I do a great fake heart attack.” - Sloan

Oh my god, me writing that is like totally like a term paper! Hellooo stereotypes and clichés! Who thought of that concept? Let’s compare the show to high school? Cliques, cheerleaders, nerds, best friends, secrets, …

Grey’s Anatomy: Physical Attraction… Chemical Reaction

(S04E07) “You know you need it.” - Alex

I just don’t know what to say anymore. No other show on TV leaves me with such a mixed bag of emotions in fairly the same way as Grey’s Anatomy does. That’s ironic, you realize, considering the end aftermath is something I can’t fully distinguish as e…

Grey’s Anatomy: Kung Fu Fighting


“Are you two… a couple?” - Hahn

I think we might have finally reached a turning point for Grey’s Anatomy. that wasn’t the best episode, but it set up a lot of things that I think the show desperately needed. The most noticeable difference? The addition of Dr. Hahn. She’s added a fresh voice t…

Grey’s Anatomy: Haunt You Every Day

 ”Get it? He’s trick-or-treating. For ears.”- Meredith

She’s baaaack! Ugh… before I even get to you know who, let me just say a thing or two about theme episodes. I hate ‘em. Halloween. Christmas. National Bologna Day. I don’t care what’s being celebrated. I hate that simply considering …

Grey’s Anatomy: The Heart of the Matter

 You killed him. With your penmanship. –Izzie Stevens

Jonathan is traveling to a wedding tonight, so I am filling in for him. I have to confess something: I stopped watching Grey’s Anatomy in earnest toward the beginning of Season Three. Oh, I know what’s happening. It’s sort of tough to …

Grey’s Anatomy: Let the Truth Sting

 ”I’m young. I’m a fetus.” - Derek

Here we go again. A great episode final week and thereupon we get hit with that weird pile of mush. that wasn’t the worst hour Grey’s has given us, but it certainly wasn’t the best. The whole episode was peppered with some very good moments along with s…

Grey’s Anatomy: Love/Addiction

(S04E02)
“Simple question Lexie. Are you an idiot or a stalker?” - Meredith

Well that certainly made up for final week’s crappy excuse for a season premiere. It actually felt like old school Grey’s Anatomy. The pacing was frantic, the dialogue was snappy, and nothing was overly dramatic …

Grey’s Anatomy: A Change is Gonna Come (season premiere)

“I have five rules. Memorize them. Rule number one. Don’t bother sucking up. I already hate you. That’s not going to change.” - Cristina

It’s baaaack. OK, brief moment of excitement gone. Were you as unimpressed by that as I was? Look… it wasn’t poor, but for a season premiere, that was…

What to expect in season 4 of Grey’s Anatomy


Last season’s finale of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy did a decent job of wrapping up storylines featured all through a somewhat disappointing season: the wedding, the race for the chief position, the exams, and the status of the MeDer relationship.
Even whether the finale didn’t leave us hanging all summ…

Chris O’Donnell stars on TNT’s The Company with other super-hero grads

Chris O’Donnell’s “Robin” was partnered with “Batmen” Val Kilmer and George Clooney in the movies - but he never battled crime alongside Michael Keaton, who brought the Dark Knight to the big screen in 1989, until the two were cast in The Company. The TNT six-hour, three-week mini-series (based on …

Is House a dramedy? A TV Squad poll

As some of you may have noticed, some of the categories to the left have changed. There’s a new one there: Dramedy Shows. We put that in place considering there really are shows that don’t fit in just the drama or comedy categories alone. There are some shows, however, where we are in a bit of…

Washington to guest on Bionic Woman, signs NBC development deal

Despite being fired from Grey’s Anatomy and blaming everyone but himself for his predicament, it looks like Isaiah Washington is landing firmly on his feet.

According to USA Today, NBC is set to announce that they’ve signed the actor to a development deal; under the deal, Washington will st…

New regulars for Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice

Even though focus groups reportedly did not like her Grey’s Anatomy character much (mostly considering she got in the way of Meredith and Derek?), TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello reports that Chyler Leigh was promoted to series regular. that news comes less than a week after we’ve told you that th…
