   Every relationship has been torn to shreds. Why bother investing myself in any character on this show? I officially un-Tivoed Grey's after the 1/10/08 episode. P.S. Rose is annoying, for your sakes (I won't be watching), I hope she is just temporary like a bad zit.

   this is my first post after having read your posts for a couple of months, and I feel urged to have my say now. I think everybody here is thinking about the characters as if they were real persons with real motivations, thoughts and lives. that’s why so many people keep asking themselves questions like: how can derek do this or that to meredith after having declared her the love of his life, how come izzie sees no chemistry between her and george anymore even if she was willing to take any risk just a few episodes earlier, why are so many things happening that haven’t been obvious and - to the viewers – make no sense at all, because they do not represent normal, predictable and logical behaviour.

   well, I think the answer is that it’s not real people we’re seeing. they’re created characters in a created show and this show – sorry to have to say that – seems to be motivated by no other things than greed, overreaching egos and megalomania.

   the show’s creators, producers, writers have seemingly forgotten the reasons for their enormous success – comprehensible but yet surprising storylines, gripping plots, credible couple-chemistry. the writer’s strike shows that all it’s about is money. greed for money, not passion for storytelling.

   what I see in season 4 is the desperate attempt to save what cannot be saved anymore. instead of inventing new storylines, shonda rhimes is sticking to her “I’m breaking up merder”-route, because that’s what always keep people watching, but now she’s not realizing that the regular viewers are bored to death by the continuous seesaw.
