I really liked this episode it was soo good that i watched the encore ep the next night!! it was cool to see how everyone was before we really got to know them like Cristina being a big dork in front of Burke and now to see them together... really funny. the flashback that pissed me off was of George talking to Meredith and she wasn't even paying attention to him and he was still talking to her. to think back and have George say that he was in love with her and how he had her ear the whole night just makes me mad at him b/c he liked her soo much but was soo blind that she was not clearly into him... GEEZ GEORGE!!!
i also loved how they were sitting shiva for Izzie eventhough she's Catholic lol. If i were Meredith i would definately choose McDreamy b/c he said he loved her and Finn hasn't (well Meredith really hasn't given him too much of a chance). I wish Meredith and McDreamy could just see the chemistry b/t them if they haven't b/c it's amazing!! they belong together.

I have to agree with Cherish, I don't want Derek and Addison to stay together, because I love him with Mer, but I do hope Addison stays on the show and gets back together with Mark. He is VERY nice to look at and really seems to love her. Someone earlier said they could see an Alex and Addie story line, but I hope Alex get back together with Izzie. He may have been a rodent before, but I loved how tenderly he cared for her when Denny died.

okay... thanks to everyone for sharing all of theri perspectives, i LOVE IT SO MUCH how i'm not the only one disturbingly obsessed with this show!
i've been trying to piece together what we saw in episode 301 + stuff "spoiler" said earlier int he comments and also what we've seen from the frey's video clip "how to save a life".
so, meredith has a choice, decides to flip a coin and dates both finn and mcdreamy:
- this would explain why she is making out with finn and about to make out with derek in the film clip (must be episode 2 or 3)
- doesn't really explain why when both der and finn rock up to the pub it looks like derek is super mad and leaves (maybe coz he sees how happy she looks with finn? oh nooo!!!!!!)
- (okay i'm reading into this too much) but she is wearing a red jumper int hat scene at the bar, and also when she is making out with finn, and derek is in some baggy jacket at the bar, which he also shows up to addison's door (somewhere) in
- so maybe at the bar s

I abolutely love Greys Anatomy! I think Meredith should choose Finn because he has only been good to ger unlike Dr.Mecdreamy. Not only that but he is also a total hottie! If I had to choose between Finn and Derek...I would definitly choose Finn because he is hot, a sweet guy, and he's not married. Please don't break Finn's heart Meredith...what has he done to you...except love you?!?

I am not sure who mentioed it - but I think Callie was making Paella. It was definitely a Paella pan. I saw that and I thought i was a perfect subtle touch and nod to her heritage.
As for the others - I definintely loved Derek's speech at the end. I am going to have to re-watch to see Addison wearing Derek's jacket, I didn't catch that and it was puzzling me how she came across the panties. But it was a nice little touch that Derek wanted to keep them.

Meredith has to follow her heart and her heart is telling her to choose Derek. She is in love with him. Personally, I would choose the man I KNEW I was in love with over the man I could POSSIBLY fall in love with someday, anyday. I'm probably in the minority, but I REALLY enjoyed the flashbacks. The one between Addy and Derek was so powerful and moving and just so poignant. It gave me a whole new outlook on the characters, especially Derek. Yes, we know that he found Addy in bed with his best friend, but for me, seeing it was much better than hearing about it. I wanted to see his reaction, I wanted to see her beg for him to stay. I loved it. I have to say, I totally love Meredith and Derek together and am praying that they reunite, but I am also looking forward to see Addy move on from Derek. I want to see her character go in a whole other direction. I want to learn more about her, not just who she was with Derek. I can't say I would mind a new love interest for her either. I love Addi

Addison is a whore and an immature woman. I'm happy that Derek found Meredith.
Flashbacks were important for the storyline? What happened between Derek and Addison? And between MerDer? ...
September 24th, 2006 8:15 AM
I missed Bailey's flashback... did she have a flashback??? I'm curious why all of a sudden she's so emotional
September 24th, 2006 8:04 AM
Omg, you guys suck. I love Finn. I think he's going to be a great addition to the cast. Derek needs someone around to see that he can lose Meredith and Meredith needs to see that there are more fish in the sea and that she doesn't need mcdreamy/married man.
September 24th, 2006 7:50 AM
So the ball is in meredith's court. But why does it have to be between Finn and Mcdreamy?? Both are as eligable and are as hot! But seriously.. i hope she chooses MCDREAMY!! bye bye Addison!
Overall i thought the episode was FAB!! and i didn't mind at all the flashbacks especiall the part with addison and derek was super intense. Also all the other flashbacks was in one way or another related to the theme of the episode so it was all good.
And I want to see more of Burke and Christina so i can't wait for the next episode!

For sarah...Derek stayed at the hospital all night after the prom. He told Richard that he had performed a surgery that night and wanted to see if Richard could get someone to cover his rounds for that morning. But, Dr. Bailey came up and talked about all the patients they had, and he had to stay. He was wanting to go talk to Meredith before it was too late. I loved the episode. I do wish that Derek would have said something to Meredith about Addison...like I am leaving her...I guess when he said he made the wrong choice that means his marriage is over. I hope Meredith chooses Derek...their chemistry is so great.

I enjoyed the flashbacks and the new episode in general. It was interesting to see characters acting in uncharacteristic ways. Bailey was not the Nazi, but rather an emotional wreck over not being able to help Omar. Derek realized he could have missed his opportunity to tell Merideth that he loves her after a season of trying to deny it to himself. Cristina vulnerable as she asks Preston to never die. My personal favorite line in the whole show was Dr. Burke response to Cristina's plea, "I'll do my best." It was just about his only line (other than a flash back) in the whole episode, but I loved it. My most favorite thing about this entire show is the diversity of characters and the fact that race is so completely insignificant, as it should be in life. People are people, relationships are relationships, and at Seattle Grace ethnicity is not an issue. There is genius in that.

Why on Earth is it Meredith's choice?????? What choice does she have??? Derek went home to his wife after the dopey prom thing right??? He's the freakin' married one! If he is that much in love with another woman, than he's an ##s for living a lie when in fact it is he that has to make a choice---first. The two deserve each other for their lack of ethics and spineless existences.
September 23rd, 2006 1:12 PM
um spoiler.. y is she dating both will episod 3 show who she picks..
??

Overall, I was a little disappointed with the episode. I understand that it's a lot of set-up for things to come, but on its own, it wasn't a very good episode. Someone coming into Grey's Anatomy new this season might not be inclined to watch it again based on that. It just didn't stand on its own very well.
Also, I find myself caring less and less about Meredith. I'm glad other plots are being developed.
I wonder if the writers are having Richard and Adele split as a set-up for a possible hook up between Richard and Burke's mother?
September 23rd, 2006 6:51 AM
I can't believe that our station showed episode 2 instead of the opening episode this week! Meredith ends up just flipping a coin at the end but decides to date both Finn and Derek at the same time and tells them that. Christina has to deal with Burkes Mom. Addison puts Mer's panties on the board and Callie says that they are hers. Addison ends up with Mark coming out of the shower in her hotel room after sex and Dereks discovers them there! There marriage then is officially over. Will be a bore next week now that we have seen this. Yikes.
September 22nd, 2006 8:54 PM
yea there making it seem like we are sopusto be srry for addison but she cused all this.. and the der and mer thing.. well i think shes goin wit him.. cuz what finn sed was a lil weried that dereks bad and hes good.. idk i seemed weired.. BUT! did u no canada saw episode 2 insted of 1 last night.. so start talkin to canda and they will tell u what happenes
September 22nd, 2006 8:39 PM
If Addison did find the panties in Derek's coat I'm glad. It is what she deserves for walking in and ruining every thing between Derek and Meridith after she screwed around on him. She stayed with Mark even after Derek left and only came to Seattle after she found out Derek had meant someone else and moved on. She was the one who ruined their marrige and now we are supposed to see her as the victim? I do like Addison but not with Derek.
The only thing that could have made the season premier better was if it showed Derek dumping Addison, no matter who Meridith picks.
September 22nd, 2006 5:14 PM
what was the quote at the very end about time? it was very profound
September 22nd, 2006 4:19 PM
To whomever was wondering, Addison was wearing Derek's jacket in the opening of the episode. It's pretty easy to surmise she found the panties in the pocket.
I applaud her for taking the strength to do what she did. She didn't ignore it, nor run groveling to Derek. She took a stand. It was obviously tearing her apart--"I just don't understand how you can go back day-to-day and pretend everything is right. Because it's not"--that was an obvious parallel.
Derek is a coward.
September 22nd, 2006 3:44 PM
It's good to see that it was really Derek who made the move on Meredith. Season 2 mostly pictured Mer as a slut who doesn't have any qualms with picking up guys at the bar for casual, cold-blooded one night stands. But we saw in the flashback that it was Derek who hit on her. Ironically, Cristina who was in awe with Burke at the start of the internship now (seen in flashback again) holds Burke's heart in the palm of her hand.
With so much flashback though, I miss the feel of the surgical world superimposed with the stories of interns' lives. The season 3 premiere feels a li'l heavy/intense by Grey's Anatomy's standards. I miss the banter of all 5 interns together.
But I see the possibility of Karev-Addison liason. Hint! Hint!
September 22nd, 2006 2:47 PM
I loved when Derek met Mer in the bar.. that was incredible!! Plus when he told her that he loved her and said that she had a choice to make!! But what's the choice.... she wanted Derek for a long time... plus Meridith doesnt even know Finn that well.. so I definitley think she should stay with Derek...
September 22nd, 2006 2:16 PM
I honestly enjoyed last night's episode. I enjoyed seeing the flashbacks...they may have seemed strange, random, even corny...but it's all part of the "how" and "why" we've gotten to this point in the story. And the Mer/Der reflection was to show us (first off) HE was the aggressor (which we knew anyways) and that all adds to the irony of their situation. I was intensely watching the whole episode, but when Christina told Burke "Don't ever die..." wow. I felt a tear at that point.
Count me in for round two next week...I still need answers!
September 22nd, 2006 2:13 PM
I was in aw the entire episode. Yeah i was happy Derek finally came out and admited that he loved her but what about Addison? He never even mentioned the entire episode what was going to happen. If anything, Addison might wait for Derek to come out and admit what happened. How did Addison find Meredith's panites? I know in the finale see was sensing something when everyone said they were going to call it a night, but how? I don't want meredith to chose derek. LAst time she was ready to be with him but he rejected her for his demolished marriage and now she has found someone she likes and he comes in and ruins it for Meredith. BLAH!
September 22nd, 2006 1:50 PM
What about Mer's flashback to her mom and Richard parting ways? I think that comes into play with her indecision on Finn or McDreamy. She saw how this great love between Richard and her mother tore them apart. I think she's wondering if she should stay with Finn b/cse he is good, stable and less explosive than her relationship with Derek.
You couldn't get any more emotional than Bailey though, that woman was awesome! I personally want to see a flashback to Addison and McSteamy and what happened between the two of them after Derek left for Seattle.
