Thursday night telly.

First of all, I love Ugly Betty. I have been waiting for this show since upfronts, and it's just as good as I hoped it would be. America Ferrera is amazing, and OMG, it's like The Devil Wears Prada, but with a real girl for a change*. I've kept my eye on America since Real Women Have Curves and she's just so fucking refreshing. I feel this overwhelming urge to write UB fic from the jump which hasn't happened since, err, The O.C.

*No disrespect to Anne Hathaway, but dropping from a size 6 to a size 4 is not my idea of a life-affirming goal.

As for Grey's Anatomy I have never been so fucking disappointed in this show in my entire LIFE.

Whomever wrote this episode deserves to be slathered in honey and locked in a tank with red ants and cockroaches and BEES.

Bailey acting all out of whack all episode and then stepping up to take responsibility for Izzie playing God? HELL FUCKING NO.

Way to just piss all over one of the strongest women characters on TV. How dare they!

What I love about Bailey is her uncompromising ethics; she is not responsible for Izzie acting the fool, she did that all on her own. And now you're saying that Bailey got soft because she had a kid? Nice with the demeaning working women all across the world. Bailey was fine, she got soft when you made her all OOC to try and make Izzie look better. To which I say FUCK YOU!

Also, this George/Callie thing is pissing me off. The bit where he's leading her on, and you're trying to pretend like it's okay?

It's fucking NOT.

She took the flack for Meredith being a home-wrecker and Meredith didn't even THANK her.

Again, GA writers, you suck.

As for Meredith and Shepard, whatever, they've deserved each other since day one.

I love Addison and am thrilled that McSteamy is back. Everyone else can rot.

In conclusion, you don’t even get any points for having Shaft and Julia be Preston's parents.

Asses.

Pretty much agree with you about every single one of those points. Bailey is APOLOGIZING to Izzie for acting like a fool? She's not responsible for that shit, because no, she could NOT have stoppied Izzie. She could have taken her off the case and it wouldn't have kept Izzie out of Denny's room.

I was SO FUCKING FURIOUS with the last ten minutes of this show. All of these people SUCK except for Addison.

WORD. Except for you know, Alex, Alex is keeping it real and being Alex. Everybody else is fired.

Seriously, the only mistake Bailey made was in not taking Izzie off the case, and even so, that would not have done anything. Other than hiring hospital personnel to keep her away...which woul dhave been, uh, stupid, because Bailey made the mistake of assuming that Izzie would behave like a MATURE NORMAL HUMAN BEING not to mention a RESPONSIBLE DOCTOR. And that's not a mistake she should have to apologize for, you cannot anticipate the crazy!

Yeah, Alex is pretty super awesome. I would love it if he and Addison hooked up. Or he and Callie because OMG GEORGE WTF is wrong with you? "I will love you soonish?" IDIOT. He's dating her to get over Meredith and she so deserves better than that.

I was totally sussing out the Alex/Callie in comments further down. Now that would rock, because he'd be all butch and she'd be like whatever and he'd be like, we should have sex right here and now, and she'd be all, you're not hung up on Meredith's underwear are you? And he'd be all, nah, she's too skinny for me. Plus, I already have my own issues.

I loved the scene where he was all "You and O'Malley. How'd THAT happen?" in that tone of voice that was like "I'd hit that." And she just snaps back, "I don't know, you're a surgeon, how'd THAT happen?"

The only time Callie ever annoyed me was in season 2 when she was all, "George, I gave you my number, why didn't you call me George, when a hot girl gives you your number, you CALL HER, George." I was a little bit "Um, DOWN, girl."

Okay, so, wait. I was reading Just Jared and they had shit with Ben McKenzie: Cage Fighter and my brain was like '...' I thought that was just some shit you made up, but you're serious.

...

!!!

THE HELL?

What show is this? Fight Clue: The TV Redux?

Seriously, you thought I made that up? I don't take THAT much crack, dude. (Josh is smart though, man, killing Marissa AND cage fighting? Uh, that might actually get me watching at least the season premiere.)

Look, Z., obviously you have not suffered a crushing terrible loss like Ryan Atwood, okay? After your girlfriend who you didn't really like all that much to begin with dies in a car accident, WHAT OTHER OPTIONS TO DEAL WITH YOUR GRIEF are you POSSIBLY LEFT WITH other than moving to Mexico and becoming a cage fighter?

I swear, you have no basic understanding of the human mind and the five stages of grief!

That child needs therapy. Where are his makeshift parents? Or was that the question I shouldn't have asked?
