A Second Death to Come Thursday?
After last week's shocking ending, Grey's Anatomy fans are understandably desperate to learn the fate of Meredith Grey.
Will she be revived despite her dangerously low body temperatures, or will she, Denny and Dylan have an eternity to get better acquainted? Will the Seattle Grace world return to normal next Thursday night, or will the show have to be renamed Yang's Anatomy?
Meredith is dead. Shonda Rhimes says she doesn't play by the rules, and backed up that statement by killing the show's title character. However, the door was clearly left open for Dr. Grey to be revived, and many of us remain optimistic that it will happen.
In fact, it's practically spelled out for us in the title of the February 22 episode, "Some Kind of Miracle." At the same time, ABC and a number of other sources have tried to play down this angle by pointing out that at the end of "Some Kind of Miracle," somebody is going to be dead.
But will it be Meredith Grey?
Inside sources such as Kristin Veitch at E! Online (who accurately outlined the return of Denny Duquette) and Michael Ausiello at TV Guide believe it won't be. The death that sticks will probably be that of another character.
Mer's mother, Dr. Ellis Grey, who we listed at the top of our official Grey's Anatomy Death Watch odds from last week, seems like a strong candidate, with major surgery on the horizon especially.
Still, there's plenty of speculation that it's one of the principal cast members who passes on. Spoilers only tell you so much, and after last week's "Drowning On Dry Land," we wouldn't put anything past the producers. We'll have to wait and see what happens Thursday to know for sure.

Here's the truth. Ellis Dies. Not Meredith. End of story. Good bye, Ellis.

Thank you to the architects of Greys Anatomy for not destroying our house.
We were watching, and waiting to see if you care less about what your loyal viwers think, and it appears like you do.
Right now we are breathing but we still need to be completely assured that Meredith is not going to die ( permanently) and that she will continue to recover until to her old self, and that McDreamy will have the opportunity to shower her and the viewers with the debt of his emotions and whatever it takes to get things going great.
It is also great to see that there is something strong that will happen between Kristina and Dr. Burk. I was sorry for the head doctor, but Dr. Grey ( mother) is not too useful to him or to any one other than make Meredeth miserable and remind the head doctor of what could have been.
Can you believe that the best part of thr night was the close encounter between Izzie and Danny, the dead fiancee. This seems so real, and it appears like

Well Shell, we were all right to begin with. Ellis was the logical one to die and in fact she did. I am thrilled that Burke is alive and well and that Cristiina confirmed they are getting married. Hooray! They can do their hiatus now if they want. At least we all of the primary characters will be there when they get back after March madness.

I love Grey's Anatomy.
I love MerDer too.
I've actually read some spoilers about Ellis dying and they use her organs for meredith.
And she survives. A lot of people have confimed it, but we will have to wait until tonight.
only 3 hours 45 minutes!

I'd be kind of pleased if Meredith died. I find her annoying and not as witty and quirky as I think she is supposed to be. I'm really in it for Izzie.
February 22nd, 2007 3:41 PM
I have a speculation that something will happen to Doctor Addison because I heard through the radio that she is leaving the show. We will see tonight for sure!
