  • First of all, consider I just hate halloween! This episode wasn't interesting at all, but at least, the story changes a bit.

    "Abysmal"
    1)Halloween: I don't celebrate it 'cause I'm from Argentina. Most of people here do, but it's not an argentinan tradition.
    So, it's all so taken for granted that it's even insulting to me. Like Valentine's day, it's just another comercial reason for companies to make money, because we're so stupid that we buy it. Bad!

    2)Callie's speech: I liked it, but from this take: it made the story change. Now everyone knows about her affairs, new world for you Iz!

    3)Cristina and Mer's reaction: Meredith's reaction was as dumb as Cristina's. Meredith wasn't even shocked! She tried to process it, but it was like a toddler when he learns to read! Cristina was judgy here, and I didn't like her speech because it was contradictory. The phrase "I slept with my boyfriend" it's contradictory. Cristina slept with her boss, and it was wrong (maybe), so she can't tell Izzie she did a bad thing. Alex had the right to say so, and he did, but Cristina had no business at all to tell her she made a terrible mistake or that it was unaproppiate. And Meredith didn't sleep with somebody else's wife, because she didn't know that part, which makes both Izzie's and Cristina's speechs contradictory. Anyway, I liked that Izzie claimed they were a close circle.

    4)Ava: I liked she came back, but I didn't like she was "disguised". It's an explosion, but that 03x25 episode's love changed to a sexual thing. She should escape from everything. Yet, it's not easy when you thing about her child and her husband.

    5)Trick and treat (I don't know if it's well writen): ears.

    It was something tender at the beginning, but it was later tacky. 6)Erica's entrance to the show.

    It seemed great at the beginning, but it was later something silly: it's unprofesional to judge someone by something that has nothing to do with work. I expected more from her.

    7)Norman's departure:

    One of the few good things: I didn't like him. So good he's gone.

    8)Music:

    The other good thing was Kendall Payne's song "I will show you love"

    9) Meredith's dream sequence.

    I saw this before! The same camera effects from 03x17"Some kind of miracle"! It was really unoriginal.

    One of the worst episodes so far.moreless

  • Great episode for two reasons, 1) I don't have to see Lexie as much and 2) the little boy trick or treating for ears was laugh out loud funny.

    This episode isn't really integral to the main plot of the show. Not much happens to the main characters in this episode, except for Callie telling the residents (Meredith, Cristina, Alex, Sydney and Bailey) that Izzie slept with George, and Dr. Hahn takes over Burke's old position, and pushes Cristina out. Derek also realizes that he has to start dating, Richard looks for a new apartment, and after a weird dream she has, Meredith finally gets rid of her mother's ashes, in a place very dear to Ellis' heart. Season 4 hasn't been a great season so far and this episode is no exception, however the little boy popping out from behind stuff and saying "trick or treat" is pretty funny.moreless

    I absolutely loved this epiosde. Meredith brought her mom to work, in a plastic bag. That was soo hilarious. Everyone was all freaked out. Priceless moment. Well at least she's not in meredith's closet anymore. The little boy trick or treating for ears, was so sad. But at least he got new ears for free. The Ava and Alex thing, was soo boring to me. I don't like them together. Hello, she is married. Get over it and move on. Bailey missing out on her son's first Halloween was sad. But it was for a good reason. The biggest thing for me wa swhen Callie told everyone about Izzie and George's affair. I was soo shocked. As was everyone else, on the show. At least the secret is finally out. It was soo surprising, how she told everyone. One of the best Grey's Anatomy moments ever, because it was just soo funny. By the way, Halloween, is one of my favorite holidays. (Christmas first, Easter third.) I love dthis episode.moreless

    Once again loved this episode. There was humour, drama in the cases and new friendships were formed. Does this mean George and Izzie will finally be together next episode? I hope so, the final seen with them saying "We made through the day" was the thing that hinted this for me. The start with Callie telling everyone was funny and izzie just walking out was great. Though I liked the Rebecca bits I thought the way the storyline started was all a bit rushed. Normans stroke didn't really interest me, just didn't like him. Lexi wasn't in this episode much but she still is a good character. The women kept looking at Dereck and smiling, now his reactions were funny. Where the hell did the Callie/Cristina friendship come from? So Callie is now going to live with Cristina or Cristina is moving out and Callies moving in, I don't know guess we'll find out next week. Is there trouble a head for Baily and her husband, judging from that phone call I think so. I liked what meredith did with her mothers ashes. I thought that story in a whole was good, she brought in her mother in a baggy.
    Another brilliant episode of Grey's and season 4 has gotten off to a great start. Can't wait for next weeks!moreless

    My thoughts:
    Very funny. I loved the "Nurses United AgainstMark Sloan" Sloan "Are there any club activities?"

    But my very favorite was:
    boy to Sloan: "daddy?"moreless
