I feel for gizzie fans i really do! Eventhough I do like both pairings,i voted for AI. They've been through so much like falling in love with patients then got their hearts broken. I would have liked Gizzie better if they've been through these tough situations together. I think it was Shonda's idea in the beginning to pair Alex and Izzie together. like in season 2 when denny (well dont hate me but i think denny and izzie are the best couple) died, alex was the one who picked her up and she allowed only him do that. In season 3, she wouldnt go inside the hospital and she just stood there for hrs and Alex was the only one who could tell her to go back home. and even when izzie told alex she was in love with george, he was still a little bit supportive. When alex had problems with rebecca, he could have talked to meredith (like in season 2) bcuz their personalities are pretty much the same but he only let his guard down when he was around izzie.
so eventhough im not a big fan of alex o

ok, you´re right, Marie. I didn´t see the results cause I thought it be like 70 to 30 or something,but that´s crazy...
October 31st, 2008 5:00 PM
Hmm Becks, yes we have. But if AI was winning 60% to 40% or something, but 89% to 10%. Do you really believe that? I don't. On most sites where there are polls on GI vs AI, they end up pretty much equal, sometimes GI has a small majority sometimes AI does. But 90% to 10%, come on. You have been on the Internet and you know GI has a lot more fans than that.
If the difference was less, I wopuld buy this, but I don't believe 90% of the fans love AI and only 10% love GI. This is not what I have seen on the Net and off the Net talking with people. It bwas always more 50-50.
At least if they spammed elss hard it would be easier to believe. When polls are so heavily on one side, it always raises a lot of suspicions especially since ebven non-Gizzie fans have acknowledged they have a big fanbase.
Look at the Gizzie petition, Fanforum Gizize LJ and places like this and on BuddyTV where Gizzie wins favorite couple all the time.
Noone is denying AI has a huge fanbase. I don,t like the
October 31st, 2008 4:55 PM
I'm going to be honest, I voted for Alex and Izzie because I like them better than Izzie and George, no offense to Gizzie fans, and even I was ASTOUNDED when I saw the results. Gizzie fans are so dedicated, I thought they would surely get more votes! AI fans are dedicated too I guess, I mean I am at least, but from AI fan to another, we shouldn't spam the polls. Its childish and stupid. Just because you don't like Gizzie doesn't mean you have to sabotage it like that. Again, I like AI, but I wouldn't vote more than once just to make someone else angry. Let's just try to be fair please, and to the Gizzie fans, I totally hear you! It's def not fair to you guys!
And another note: Although I understand why the writers might not have as many scenes with Izzie and George because it could be a little awkward after their breakup, I totally wish they had more scenes together. Just because I don't like Gizzie doesn't mean that I didn't love their friendship. And c'mon, where is George's story
October 31st, 2008 4:36 PM
have you ever thought about the possibility the tha AI are in the majority and that´s why they win.. ?
well i don´t want to argue, it´s just sad - for me - to read the comments here and they are all so negative...
October 31st, 2008 4:17 PM
Expressing yourself is not spamming. It is free speech. CHEATING on a poll for hours that is spamming. And since the AI fans are spamming this poll so hard, commenting is all we can do without wasting hours of our life.
Alex and Izzie to me are fake and have no chemistry. Not to mention they are totally dysfunctional.
Oh and I was lurking on another site and this Gizzie fan who is an Izzie fan said she and many other Izzie fans were not voting in any Gizzie poll because they thought we were being mean with Izzie bashing her for Alex
October 31st, 2008 4:04 PM
I always love to see how all Gizzie-fan complain about spamming the poll by the AI fans and then they spam the comment sides....
(is it caled that way, english isn´t my mother tongue)
Alex and Izzie are just great
October 31st, 2008 3:26 PM
Guys don't take this poll so seriously. For goodness sake, on one site, some people were saying do you want me to email you on how to spam this poll? LOL.
October 31st, 2008 3:08 PM
OK idc, I guess you don't get it. We have time to vote once or twice but not for hours on end which is what the AI fans are doing.
The AI and MerDer fans have always voted more than any fanbase. Most people don't have time to vote and if they do, they do it once, but both those fanbases spam things tod eath. I know they brag about it on multiple sites.
Those polls are actually taken seriously by Shonda and because of it, George and Izzie don't even have scenes together anymore even though they do have a huge fanbase 9something you wouldn't know if you came here). I do because I speak with hundreds of them on various sites, and they are all still loyal to Gizzie and they are all tired of those spammed polls.
But let's drop the spamming argument and focus on the complaining part.
Could you please forget this is Gizzie you don't like and wonder how you would feel if your favorite couple was dropped because a few people whined extra loudly and made threats to drop the show, and
October 31st, 2008 3:00 PM
Oh Christa thanks. I love polls. I vote on Fanpop all the time, where the results are about 51% Gizzie, and 49% Lexzie, really close. They were some spammers on Fanpop a few months ago but they got all thrown out so now we get real results.
Same thing on Tv-com, they did that same poll on AI and GI and it was exactly 50% each, they all had the same number. The person wanted something real and unspammable.
It is kind of hard to enjoy polls when you know the other side will spam it.
I am so busy lately that I feel guilty for not spamming too and letting my couple down, which is ridiculous. My work is more important and I don't have all the time in the world so then I get upset.
This is not fun for me anymore. I don't know why people can't just vote once and be done with it. I am to the point I am afraid to see a poll on Gizzie on this site because I know the other side will spam it.
October 31st, 2008 2:55 PM
Gizzie fans like to complain a lot... They are over, so should you! Izzie is having a good time with Alex! That's what matters! (But I agree... they could have more scenes together as friends)
Anyway, Gizzie fans can vote here as AI, MerDer, Callica and now Huntina (we SO have to get Cristina and Hunt a nickname!)fans can...
This poll is just for FUN! Just don't understand why you like to bitch around like this! Enjoy the show.. chill out!
October 31st, 2008 2:46 PM
I think George and Izzie are a beautiful couple and I don't have much of an opinion about Alex and Izzie, but I am not an Alex fan. I find it tiring to read all the A/I against G/I things out here, but honestly it does seem like the Gizzie fans get rolled over and pounded a lot by everyone else. I think there are a lot of Gizzie fans out there, but they're not the ones who come and vote in fun little polls or post on random forum sites or try and sway Shonda with their opinion, like what seems like the vast majority of A/I fans do in fact do.
The poll IS for fun, but it is also laughably easy to spam. It'd be nice if people would just vote once so the results could be more real, but people are too passionate and want to see their couple win at all costs.
I'd guess the real percentage to be close to 50/50, but who knows, and I don't anyone CAN know unless there is an unhackable poll somewhere, that everyone - not just the people with no life or the people who are too busy to com
October 31st, 2008 2:42 PM
Exactly. Shonda even said the bad sex had nothing to do with their sexual chemistry and was all about bad timing and baggage. But the answer to me is clear: she got scared of the haters and Gizzie died because of it. Those two had amazing sexual chemistry in that elevator with not one drop of alcohol.
I am also puzzled with the results since on most sites I go to, Gizzie does pretty good in the polls, but then I go on mostly Gizzie fan sites like fanforum, Tv-com, BuddyTV and Fanpop.
This one is pretty much anti-Gizzie.
October 31st, 2008 2:32 PM
George and izzie were totally sober when they kissed. It is pretty obvious Shonda was only adhering to what the haters were saying and that is the only reason they had bad sex because the writers said Gizzie could thev great sex without being drunk when commenting the linen closet scene.
I guess the Gzizie fans are not voting here because they have a way bigger fanbase than that. Or the AI fans are spamming this a lot.

I was all for George and Izzie at first. But after it played out you could clearly see that they weren't into each other in that way. They had to try too hard. And when your in love you shouldn't have to try that hard to make it. Besides they didnt have good sexual chemistry either only when they were drunk that time..c'mon do you want them to have to be drunk eveyrtime they have sex? As for them being friends once you sleep with you best friend usually that changes everything! And you can see it has taken a toll on Georgia and Izzie's friendship. Its not the same. But I think it will mend itself eventually.
October 31st, 2008 1:09 PM
10% Please Gizzie has way more fans than this, this poll is so spammed by the AI fans, it's not funny. That is the erason why I nebver enjoy polls here, they get so spammed by one side the other side has no chance.
I like Fanpop better. Over there Gizzie and Ai score about equally in most polls, and sometimes Gizzie wins. Here they never do. Then fanpop polls are not spammed.
October 31st, 2008 12:23 PM
I guess the Gizzie fans are complaing because they have nothing right now. I think if we had even one scene where George and Izzie repaired their friendship, we would be happy. We are not asking much. I think they also take that poll badly because yeah it is spammable and because of it, we always do badly and Shonda takes those polls seriously.
We know that she dropped Gizzie when they had the bad panel against them even though it was spammed.
It is hard to have no Gizzie at all, not even the friendship, and to have George, who is my favorite character, have 5 lines in the entire episode.
What gives with that? Why arer they not giving him a story?
October 31st, 2008 11:53 AM
Oh I'm sorry I didn't see iheartizzie's comment, but thank you soooo much for posting that one, that was exactely what I wanted to say :D
October 31st, 2008 11:51 AM
Someone wrote this on Fanforum on the Gizzie thread, which btw is still very active, we are at thread 111, and we went through about 55 threads since Gizize broke up. It is about the giving up thing and not voting:
I don't think it's that we've given up necessarily, but I think we're just tired of so many anti-Gizzie fans pounding us into the ground, of Shonda completely changing her mind seemingly/potentially based on or two specific websites, and of seeing that even if we fight and outcry nothing changes and we get pounded on harder. So in that sense, ya, we've given up, I guess. But we'll NEVER give on Gizzie. I'll give up on every part of the show, every pairing other pairing, all the writers, but I'm never giving up on O'Stevens.
I feel the same way, I think most Gizzie fans still love them and always will but we know we will never gte heard or win, I am not even sure we will get the friendship back right now. Maybe they will never be friends again. So I am slowly giving up be
October 31st, 2008 11:50 AM
Oh please, c'mon, we already had a discusion like this...
I don't really want another one..I think this is just SO annoying, there are always fans on both sides and really, no offense, but somehow it is always the Gizzie Fans that start to complain...
I like George and Izzie, but I also like Alex and Izzie so please, I think the whole "AI-Fans-against-Gizzie-Fans" is just very very ridiculouz AND spammable...
I really can't stand that anymore and as for the poll:
Come on people, you know that this is NOT an official poll, it should be FUN!
Yeah, FUN!
So why don't you all see it as a fun poll of a fan site for a great Tv show and stop complaining and ighting all the time...
October 31st, 2008 11:21 AM
Thanks I heart izzie, I actually love this site very much and have always found the mods here very fair. I think the criticisms are unfair but are probably most out of frustration because of the lack of Gizzie and the fact we are a minority here, which is always hard. I usually go on sites where there are a lot of Gizzie fans so this is new for me. But you guys have been great and have always been respectful of us.
I did have some problems with the George and Lexie poll, which is weird as the other polls work perfectly for me. Wnhen I voted definitely, they put No way in black like this was my vote. I see others had the same problem with the same poll.
Thanks for answering and the friendship poll is a great idea.
And really I hope both sides can learn to stop fighting. I know a lot of great AI fans.
October 31st, 2008 11:17 AM
Maybe most Gizzie fans have just given up, LOL? The AI fans are watching the show, but not the Gizzie ones except a few of them like Greysaddiction.
If the Gizzie fans are not watching, they won't be hanging out in sites and seeing those polls, will they?
You know the Gizzie haters kept saying why do the Gizzie fans post on this site if they have given up? The thing is, it is only a few devoted Gizzie fans still posting here, posting a lot and very vocally but a little number.
Gizzie didn't always do badly on this site, I don't agree. The very first poll on them here had a majority of people wanting them together and there were over 40 000 votes.
When the second poll happened, Gizzie had broken up and now Gizzie are not even friends anymore.
So yeah most Gizzie fans have stopped posting here, watching the show and don't vote anymore.
There is about 30 of us posting here, but the others left. They got a life like they were told and went to another show.
That is also

Thank you all for your comments. Some of you may be reading into this a bit much - the polls are just for fun, we don't claim they are scientific. Our writers have opinions as expressed in Round Table discussions but as far as the rest of the content on our site, are not "rooting" for anyone. In the case of this poll, we are generally interested in our readers' opinions, not trying to prove a point. Thank you for the suggestion of the new George-Izzie friendship poll idea. We'll make it the next one we post! As far as the selection of the video of Izzie-Alex from earlier, ABC made the code available for us to post this particular clip, which is why it was chosen. If you find other clips from the show you would like us to post, please email us - we try to post everything we can, but sometimes, we simply don't find or get to it all because there is so much out there. Thank you all for your comments, and we apologize for any misunderstandings!
October 31st, 2008 11:10 AM
Yeah Gloria, we all want them to be friends, so why don't the mdos here talk about the friendship instead of making another poll on the couple.
I do find the results of the poll weird.
Gizzie has a much bigger fanbase than this poll is suggesting especially since on another site, George is winning the Izzie soulmate poll and the guy she should be with.
In fact on a lot of sites I go to, Gizzie wins polls but here, they always lose with disatrous results,weird.
Then other polls are not that easy to spam.
October 31st, 2008 11:07 AM
Not to mention this poll is very easy to manipulate. If you have a dial-up connexion, you just turn it off then on and it allows you to vote multiple times. Also if yiou don't vote in a poll for more than two days, it allows you to vote again.
Someone told me she voted 10 times using her dial-up connexion and it also works with unfiltered computers like someone mentioned.
They erase your URL.
So really those polls are for either young people or people that don't have a life and since on Fanpop, most AI fans were younger than 16 and the Gizzie fans from 28 to 35, it is no wonder AI wins all the poll.
Their fans are younger and have more time to spam the polls for hours.
I meantime have barely 5 minutes to myself.
When will you stop making polls?
I am a Gizzie fan but also a Gexie fan and yes, I did have the same thing happen to me when i voted for Gexie. You vote you want them together and it writes the oppoosite, but this is the only poll that did this for me, so m
