The clips are up, but I can't watch them. They don't work.

I've tried to play the clips but it just keeps looping the stupid Dove commericials. This system TV.com has for showing videos is pitiful.

By the way, if it doesn't work for you either, or if you get sick of the stupid commericials, head over to tv.yahoo.com. They have the same clips.

He's gonna live cause he's signed on for 8 episodes. And since next week will make 4, there are 4 more.

Ok, now the episode, it was pretty good. I'm likin' the Derek/Meredith friendship thing and I thought the Derek and Addison talk was good, and I think they'll be gettin' closer really soon, which I like. Now, George, he's gotta let it go and realize people screw up, I think now he's just overreacting. When Callie asked him if he wanted to see somethin cool I thought she was gonna take him to the on call room and they we're gonna have sex, yeah my mind's bad. haha. And how can you forget Cristina and the baby?? That was funny! And that married couple was awww. And, I think Alex is going back to his old ways because tonight he was an ass. I like Denny alot alot more. Even though Izzie is breaking like 10million rules to hang out with him and stuff, I still like it haha. And that teenage hockey player can someone say "stupid" I guess, I mean I get that he's got a passion, but in 4 months if he was THAT good the scouts would have waited for him, guess typical teenage/guy stupidy. Okay, I think...those are all my thoughts so far that I can think of on tonights eppy.

Over reacting?

The poor guy is humilated. He slept with the woman he loves only to have her ask him "are you done yet?", and then burst into tears. And then she goes and tells people about it.

What a hit to the poor guys ego.

I hope he gets with that doctor who is flinging herself at him. hehe.

As for Derek and Addison, I thought he was going to tell her it's over. I didn't dream that he would tell her he will try harder. During his interview on Barbara Walters he said he wanted Derek to be with Meredith. Perhaps the writers don't plan on ever having them together... which is a shame.

Loved Sandra Oh's take on babysitting though, LOL

Okay, first thoughts over this episode,

First of all I think it was nice but it was more of a filler since nothing actually dramatic happened, well maybe except Izzie admitting, mostly to herself, that she likes Denny better then Alex.

I don't think that George is overacting in this kind of a situation, although he is being a bit all over the place, and I like the way he and Burke are getting along.
I sort of see him going for that other Doc but if so then only as a means to snap out of his, whatever it is his in.
I really don't see them as a long term couple.
And on that note, I think that George's indiffrence to forgive Meredith is hitting her hard, maybe even a bit too hard (look at that last scene). Is that just because she lost a good friend or something more? (I'm still on the Geo/Mer train here, so it could just be me overthinking it)

Another person not taking things too well is Derek. I think he was just putting up a show, telling Meredith what he thinks she should do to fix things and even making that Elevator joke (even though Meredith actually took his advice on that), cause afterwards there's a scene with him on the balcony, and he looked seriously upset.
I am really looking forward for any sort of friction between him and George, now that he knows.
I think Derek appologizing to Addison was a big and important step in fixing their relationship (I dunno if it'll actually save they'll marriege, but who knows) and just moving on, cause it's about time too.

Christina wasn't really doing anything much in this episode.
She was just mostly upset about George moving in, I can't even understand why, but she seemed to be really upset that Burke was hanging out with George.
Oh and she also had to babysit for Bailey, while Bailey was busy on surgeries, which just added some funny moments and didn't do much for the plot. And I really only enjoyed the part where she tried to feed the baby, but couldn't get him to stop crying, and then George hat to come to the rescue, telling her and Burke that "Babies just like me".

All in all a good episode, but what I am really looking forward to, is the next one, next week's episode. It just sounds/looks like it could be a LOT of fun... so, that's it.

Singing off...

I agree with the person above, no cliffhanger dramatics this episode, but it was fun nonetheless. I TiVO all of them so lol, I rewatch them all sometimes right after it's done, and since I'm in college I have a friend who doesn't want a TV but likes the show lol... I got him hooked since I let him borrow the first season lol...
BACK TO THE EPISODE:

They didn't show much of the George/Burke friendship but I think that it will develop into something bigger and then it will eventually become something that will cause a big friction between Yang/Burke. Mainly because of Christina's "Do I look like a people person?" attitude, and also it might cause problems with Yang/Grey because they're such good friends. ANd I can't even wait to see what will happen between Shepperd/George because now he knows and from the expressions that he showed after she told him I'm guessing that he didn't take so lightly as she thought he might. Not only that, BUT he stayed with his wife to fix their marriage, but is still "friends that hope for something more" with Meredith. It's a messed relationship between them all. I can't wait to see George with Dr. Torres. I thought it was HILARIOUS when she told Christina "Who are you?" I wonder if they'll have an episode of them together and then he "borrows" their bed. It would be even better if there was some history between her and Burke. That would be just GREAT storytelling.

I loved this episode. Especially George and Burke. They had me laughing out loud at the end when Cristina came back to the apartment to find the pair of them rocking out playing a clarinet and trumpet. I think that she is just feeling left out - she used to be what Burke focussed on and now he aws a new friend to play with. But I'm sure that George will move back in with Mer and Izzy by the end of the season. Either that or get his own place.

Not enough Bailey in this ep for me. Too much Izzy/Denny going on, I don't really likethe two of them together (not that I like her an Alex either). I guess we will find out what happens between them soon enough.

I'm liking the McDreamy/Mer friendship thimg, though it is kindof a scam because they will never really be "just friends". Its nice to see them doing things that normal people do - actually their relationship now seems like a normal couples is minus the sex. I feel bad for Addison though, that she feels so neglected by her husband that she is looking for attention from the patients husband. I'm glad that she and Derek had a little talk at the end to set them on the road. Now either they will really fall in love again, or will realize that it isn't working no matter how much they try.

Anyways, thumbs up from me!

Actually he's only been in 2 episodes so far. 3 if you count the one from earlier in the season. So we're in for 6 more episodes of Denny. And for those of you counting there are 6 episodes left in the season.

I'd day he's only in for 5 more but that 8 episode deal was signed after his first introductory appearance "Begin the Begin".

EXCELLENT EPPY In my opinion. I like the Izzy/Denny situation, I don't think it's going to last though, I think he'll die. Unfortunately. The Burke/George relationship is funny but another thing that's not going to last long. No one ever likes someone living on their sofa for too long.

Christina and the baby, hilarious, and the "who are you?" from Dr Torres ... even funnier.

I think Alex is going to realize what he would be missing if he and Izzy don't work out ... but I think that relationship is going to be an ongoing struggle.

Poor kid ruined his life by cutting off his finger, which he learned how to do by reading the internet. (WTH who does that crap?)

I think everyone is right about George and Meredith, I think Georgie poo needs to let it the heck go ... he and Torres should have a torrid affair so he can get over Mer. Last episode of the entire series should be Mer and George getting married, IMO.

I think that McDreamy is going to file for divorce from his wife. That's it ... end of story, more innuendo and troubles for Mer and Derek.

That's my take, I love this show

You are soo right! Meredith and George shouldnt be fighting anymore but also should get married! After all, we all saw George's talent with babies and Derek is way too old to be a father, so Mer and George are a much better candidate for a healthy long lasting relationship. It's just there are so many signs for them to actually have a real relationship. George looks like Thatcher but wouldnt leave her. George has had this crush from day 1. George is great with kids. George getting a backbone should come with Meredith (it's an opinion but then again what real successful life is he leading where he just finds some girl like Callie, although she is good for helping him get over Mer, she isnt a challenge and she isnt a first love)


Uh...Derek can't be that old, maybe like 30-40, he's not too old. George and Meredith should not get married that's just my opinion.

LOL who's talking about marriege, honestly?
Let's just start by them having an actual date, that is after he'll get over the whole 'bad timing' incindent, sure Dr. Torres can help him with that... but that's as far as it should go.
But seriously now, I really think they should be together and yes there has been lots of signs, the major being him looking like Meredith's father.
In fact one of my most favourite episodes has been Tell Me Sweet Little Lies, just because of the whole George vs. the dog thing, and because of that lady that urged George to duke it out against Kujo :p

Anycase, can't wait for more... more to come... soon!
