Here are a pair of interesting Grey's Anatomy spoilers / pieces of gossip from the resident Entertainment Weekly sleuth, Michael Ausiello. See below ...

Q: Where's the Mer-Der hotness this season on Grey's Anatomy? The most we've gotten so far is a kiss on the cheek! What gives?

A: Maybe they need a third party to spice things up? If so, help is on the way! According to my Grey's Anatomy snitch, when Melissa George debuts as Seattle Grace's latest bisexual intern on November 6, we'll learn that she has a history with - holy lipstick lesbians! - Meredith.

Needless to say, Dr. Derek Shepherd is very anxious to find out the exact nature of their history (were they friends without benefits or with benefits?), and (presumably) whether or not it can be repeated. In front of him. Repeatedly.

Q: Alex and Izzie spoilers, please! I've loved them forever!

A: Then something tells me you're going to fall head over heels for next Thursday's episode, which may feature a big Alex-Izzie smooch. And by may I mean definitely will.
