The show is getting so confusing... They have so many litle SL's going on that they can't put them all into one episode, therefore they are caught having a episode going by where we are thinking 'but wait?? didn't this happen? is that just GONE now?" Like the April storyline... that was gone last night, and the Mr. Clark thing... i had NO idea who he was until half wat through the episode, where i realized he was from 2 weeks ago. the storylines aren't constant. There are too many characters, and too many things happening, so they can't focus on any characters, especially Derek. They have him being all Cheif like... and it doesn't show much about his personal life. The MerDer SL is really boring. Oh WHAT happened with the baby SL?? huh HUH? Everything is stuck, and they need to kill off a lot of characters to get it back to how it used to be.
As far as Derek's past life... we know nothing. Yes, his father died. Yes he was mad. Now we know he was there when it happened... But we know nothing about how it effected him or anything like that. Season 1 and 2 were the best seasons, because it was all about MerDer... and now that the show has moved on from that, it's a little lost. Shonda is preparing in the future, without a mer, or a der... but if that happens.. there is no show. I'm sorry. I love this show, it's been my life for the past few years... but i don't know how ABC is going to keep the show running if Shonda does't get her act together. I liked the tweet that the show is going back to being more MerDer centred, because honestly.. from day 1 thats how they made the show, and how you start a show, is how you continue one. Its too late to change that.
