Classic Grey's Anatomy Scenes: Season Premiere
Below is perhaps the most memorable of many amazing scenes from last night's two-hour season premiere. At the funeral of Dr. George O'Malley, the foursome who had been by his side, for better or worse, since their first day at Seattle Grace reacted to his death.
Not in a way you would expect, either.
What was one of the most sorrowful moments in the show's history quickly and suddenly turned into a laugh riot, with death, cancer and wedding mockery the subjects:

I was probably the only George fan not bothered by the laughing, but I really wanted the laughter to be mixed with something else. I wanted to hear his mom tell stories about him or Izzie remembering something sweet about him or a funny moment.
I wanted stories about George. I wanted it more than anything, really.

I totally understand that laughing scene. I do the same sometimes, when a bad thing happens accidentally and i can't handel it. These scenes makes greys such realistic - nad not classic.

I absoluteley loved the scene at the funeral, because not all funerals are long, they are quick and suddenly your going back to your life and theres moments that they showed how each person was progressing, and dealing with their grief, but i think this was a good job, because not all people grieve by constantly crying, or being depressed, some people like izzie just break out laughing, i can totally relate because after i lost someone i loved i cried my eyes out, anything i saw i cried and cried and it seemed like it wouldnt ever stop, but then when my dad died i did cry at first i was just shocked, and then it went on to crying, then just laughing, it just changes, and most people who dont understand that there are different ways to grieve cant understand this episode because it doesnt feel normal to them, it doesnt portray what most shows make everyone feel is the "correct way to grieve" but i think this was just perfect, i cant wait for next thursday so i can watch the next episode

If you missed any of the premiere go to abc.com. I had to wait till friday to see it. Was not happy cause I had to wait. But it is better than not getting to see it at all. Those where great episodes. I love the new season so far. I just hope that nothing happens to my favorite people. (Like they lose there jobs.) I love Callie Bailey and AZ I hope they get to stay on the show till the end. I have to say that Izzy did and outstanding acting job during this premiere.

I just wanted to agree with what some people said. Yes, it probably was inappropriate to laugh at the funeral. But we know Izzie has a history of this, and I also think it was a coping mechanism to stop themselves from breaking down completely. And it was really cool for them to have a moment together; the remaining four.
I thought Bailey was going to break down in the elevator, because I remembered when their situations were reversed and Derek did. I wonder if she will in a future episode? She's been through a lot lately, but then again it is Bailey we are talking about here.

Oh, and I would love to see the scene up here where Izzie admits to Alex she misses George and he is a jerk. Because that almost made me cry. Don't have a link, though.

I think the laughing scene at the funeral was great. It was so... them. Very thoughtful of the writers to bring that back about Izzie. I loved it and found it to be amazing acting by all four of them! And in my opinion it wasn't inappropriate, because they weren't really laughing about George's death, but because this was the only thing they could do not to totally lose it. The only thing: They should have kept it down for the other people passing by. Still: Wow!!!
