Death & Die

[IngridNO-67997 · 8/10 · 22 May 2020]

I remember this as one of the first episodes I ever thought was a little boring. The Izzie/Denny-connection was so weird and just has no place on a medical show. It felt incredibly wrong.

But now, after seeing it all several times, I am able to enjoy it all in a whole different way. The reason why Izzie is seeing Denny is not that crazy at all, and it is in fact medical. So knowing that makes it work for me.

Still, it's not the most exciting episode, and I definately don't like Dr. Dixon. Every episode she is in, annoys me.

I think it's fun having Sadie join in. Yes, she's a little annoying, but makes Lexie loosen up a bit, and brings some action. Plus, new people is fun!

I love Mark & Lexie, they're perhaps my favourite couple throughout the series. And it's actually really funny that it was Meredith's concern when there was nothing between them that sparked a little something in the first place.

Sadie

This Episode begins with Izzie, she is still awake in the middle of the night. Cristina tells Derek and Meredith that Hahn resigned at the Seattle Grace Hospital. Sadie visits Meredith, she is Meredith's childhood friend. Denny's ghost is following Izzie at the hospital. Timothy has been brought to the hospital, he needs surgery. Cristina kissed with Hunt. Izzie kissed with Denny his ghost. Nice Episode of Grey's Anatomy Season 5, such a emotional Episode for Izzie. She is still seeing Denny his ghost! Can she finally start a real relationship with Alex? I hope they will find there way very soon.

Why are they still bringing Denny back?

Why are they still bringing Denny back? I loved the idea of Izzy and Denny and broke my heart when he died, but right now it seems forced.

and I thought it cant get any worse

this was the most hypocritical and disgusting thing I have ever seen on TV. I don't know where they are going with the Izzie storyline and Im not sure I want to know. he is dead but no one can rest in piece because they keep on dragging his dead body out of the grave to annoy and hurt. I thought after the disaster they came up with in the third season there cant be anything worse but I severely underestimated the writers. they can do worse. so much worse.

I don't like Merediths old friend. she is annoying.

Im not sure I like the way they are showing McArmy down our throats. tone it down a little he is an interesting character but it is too much at once. but Kevin MvKidd is awesome. he deserves better.

I don't like the idea of Mark & Lexie.

basically the only thing I liked about this episode was MerDer and the Mark/Callie friendship. and that was like 3,5 minutes of the show.

I even wont start on how they are treating Alex or I would be here all night. I though Greys got their groove back. but now it seems more as though they completely lost their minds

Why can't writers leave the sharks alone - enough of the sharks

[katkoot-kate · 2/10 · 8 March 2009]

Okay, Grey's has finally 'jumped the shark' - the idea of Denny and Izzie is preposterous - this is just the most stupid storyline. I know they wanted to get rid of Hahn because of small minded viewers, who's myopia really has no place in determining what the rest of us can enjoy. I was happy that Izzie and Alex seemed to finally find their groove. I also wish they would stop trying to amp up Lexie Grey - Chyler Leigh, is a wonderful actress, but she is not believable at the moment, she's gone from being a sweet girl who gave me hope, to being an absolute rebel - she can't pull it off. And please don't get me started on Melissa George - I couldn't stand her in Alias, and now she's even more irritating - she shouldn't play bad characters - another one who's unbelievable, it's a shame cause normally she's a good actress.
