tell me you'll open your eyes

bluelovesorangeI wish Grey's Anatomy was like LJ sometimes, in that you could have filters so you could skip the gross Meredith/Derek, Meredith with anyone of Boy Parts persuasion (with the exception of The Chief and George), and just view what you wanted to view. It'd be like...Izzie'd be the one with the recipes and the photos of the really amazing bundt cakes, and Callie would post Depeche Mode lyrics and analyses of Anne Rice novels with snarky commentary, and Cristina wouldn't have one, but Burke would post all about his favorite places to drink coffee in Seattle, and George would have pictures of his dog (I think a Bulldog) and top ten lists and favorite Monty Python movie, and Mark would just have pictures of Addison - the curve of her neck, her shoulder.
I hate Derek so much. SO MUCH. And Meredith when she's with him, naturally. When she's not, I can just about tolerate her self-destructive emo-ness, because there's people around to call her on it. But when she's in the deep thrall of TWU WUV, she becomes sucked into this vortex of awful self indulgence and emotional masochism that is just not interesting to watch. And Shonda is made of stupid to keep on harping on about much worse Addison's initial betrayal with Mark is over Derek's whore-fling with Meredith in the exam room. Adultery is adultery, you don't get to quantify it, but if you want to get nitpicky about it, Derek was emotionally committing infidelity while staying with Addison, so morally, HE'S STILL A HUGE DOUCHEBAG.
Aside from the huge disgustingness of the Dream Team, the Izzie After School Special, the other characters were refreshing and I missed them very much.
Callie gamely trying to be one of the family, and suceeding in all the ways that matter, and Addison, oh my lovely Awesome Addison and all the flickers of pain and anger and oh, the flashback that firmly towed the ball in her court, not that it would ever leave the court full time, but yeah, if Shonda was trying to manipulate this viewer into feeling sorry for Derek, she failed.
Also, Addison has a CGBG shirt. And legs up to here. I mean, I don't care how great Patrick Dempsey's hair is or how rugged his stubble or whatever eau'de'Manliness he exudes - when you put Kate Walsh in the rain, with those eyes, and that hair and those legs and why yes, I would go gay for Addison, and by extension, Kate Walsh.

The ending, mostly : Derek does not get to gloat. He doesn't get to feel vindicated. He doesn't get to emotionally wank all over Addison and Meredith and gets 'rewarded' Meredith. And I could have done without super prozac Meredith and her stupid orange sweater of 'Feel your gut! Blah blah blah!'
Other wise: CALLIE. GEORGE. OMG.
And Burke's mom? ::shivers::
And score another one for Team Karev. Alex's asshattery is now charming. Hell has truly frozen over.
And Addison is still awesome, even though I wish they didn't have to go down the cliched route of wallowing and funny drunken shenanigans even though KW has the comedic chops to pull it off. AND MARK.
THE TRUE HOT OTP HAS ARRIVED.
Meh/Derek suck.
P.S.
