Grey's Anatomy Recap: "What a Difference a Day Makes"
Izzie got her dream wedding after all.
After Denny reappeared and Derek pinpointed a new, probably inoperable tumor on Izzie's brain, he, Meredith and Bailey decided to make their wedding day into Izzie's.
With Cristina as the maid of honor and Meredith as the best man, and George helping his ailing best friend down the aisle when she nearly fainted, Izzie and Alex tied the knot after he recited possibly the sweetest vows ever, and their teary colleagues looked on.
In short, it was perfect.

All you George fans do is whine, whine, whine, b*tch, b*tch, b*tch. Aren't you all getting tired yet? You keep threatening not to watch, then instead of posting or talking about doing it, then just go ahead and do it.
Grey's has a lot of fans who care about the whole show. You small lot, won't make a difference. Not even a dent.
I hate childish, immature, and unfaithful fans. You take the fun out of everything.

I hate Alex and Izzie. They are so fake and boring. They have no chemistry.
Izzie belongs with George!
She was so in love with him, and happy with him, until stupid Shonda caved in to the haters.
Now they aren't even friends anymore.
Shonda makes me so mad!
She is going to kill George too. Am I suppose to get over that?
George is the one reason I still watch this show. He's the one character that is likable and not an ego-driven jerk, and he is going to be killed off.
Why would I watch? People quit shows all the time. It doesn't make them childish.
I have a life. I won't waste an hour on a show that sucks when I only watch for one reason.

Oh please! Izzie was doing it with Denny a couple of weeks ago. Now we are suppose to believe she loves Alex, even though she never acted like he was more than a sex toy before.
She doesn't love him. She is picking life over death.
This isn't close to the love she felt for Denny or for George.
Shonda just believes the AI fans are the majority, and she is kissing their butt right now.
That's why we get prince Alex marrying princess Izzie, and why she spat on both Dizzie and Gizzie fans this episode to make the AI fans happy.
It must be nice being the chosen fanbase.
This episode was a love letter to the AI fans.
It was a slap in the face to the MerDer, Gizzie and Dizzie ones, and I will never forgive Shonda for it.
And there is like 7 articles on Izzie. How about someone else?
Like George. He might leave next episode, and the mdos aren't even mentioning it.
Not all of us care about Izzie. Many of us care about George too.

Well I don't believe Alex and Izzie love each other. I believe Shonda put them together because their fans spoke out the loudest.
I don't buy Izzie's love for Alex at all.I never will.
This wedding was so fake.
And now I am reading George is going to get killed in the next episode.
And no it is not childish to stop watching because a character leaves.
Shonda has treated George like dirt all season. She has leaked out nasty vicious lies about him.
She refuses to give him any love story or any respect just because the actor is gay and doesn't fit ehr little hunk model.
She has ignored the George fans all season long.
She destroyed the Gizzie friendship. She also destroyed Dizzie.
She is pushing Mexie on people even though they are hated.
She kills people all the time.
She confuses sex with love.
She rewards bad guys with everything, but makes the good ones (George) suffer all the time.
How sick is that?
This is much more than George leaving. This

One of the best episodes EVER. I cried the whole time ;).
I hope that Izzie will live, although she looked REAL sick at the end of the episode.
And George walking Izzie down the aisle was very touching. i hope he will stay :). but if not its not the end of the world, i love izzie but if she dies, i will watch grey's anatomy nevertheless.
i think its very childish to stop watching greys anatomy because someone leaves.
Love from germany =)

Superb, exquisite, astonishing 100th epi!
I love Cal-Zone! (thats how sara ramirez referred to them lol. it has a ring to it)
all in all, this was a beautiful epi. Sadness, happiness, comedy, romance, just everything you could ever want in an episode. I can't wait til next week. I really hope Izzie doesn't die, or else I will =..( a thousand times harder than i did this week.
She kinda looks like she's on her last limb though, sad to say. Idk if anyone noticed, but the wedding was a flashback. Iz was actually in the present telling Denny about the wedding. Which means she has lost all her hair (unless they shaved it off), and STILL has a tumor, b/c she is still hallucinating. So, idk how much longer this is gonna go on. Is Derek going to resect the tumor, somehow?
And for all those disappointed fans out there, don't be. Shonda can't absolutely please everyone. I believe that every character had a significant and appropriate role in this weeks epi.
