really?
dearest shonda,
episode six in the first season of a midseason replacement: too early to feature a montage. seriously. we remember those moments you’re flashing through. why? because we saw them, like, last week.
team corinne
corinne has been truth-telling since she arrived. sam is overwhelmed, yes. but corinne’s solid critique of institutionalization is clear and legit. it’s amazing how, despite that (or because of that?), her view gets no support from anyone else.
pp characters who critique how the medical industry dehumanizes people are almost always written as crazy (corinne) or high (amelia) or selfish and immoral (pick a patient at random).
violet & pete
really, y’all. i mean, dude is laying right there.
farewell, mcadultery
i’m feeling a little divorce happy for everyone on this show right now.
ima need mer to sit all the way down.
girl, if you don’t want your man to yell at your sister after y’all did that black girl so dirty because she’s not “strong enough” and it’ll “destroy her confidence,” maybe you delicate flowers shouldn’t be packing scalpels then.
that may be the first time I was ready for Derek to call this relationship a McWrap.
miss grant!
How can I ever fully disavow a show that helps keep Loretta Devine and Debbie Allen, not to mention chief, bailey, et al, in my life?
You want black people on tv. Well, black people on tv costs. And right here is where you start paying. In infinite patience.
Uncle Phil!!
The question echoing across both shonda shows this week is basically, institutionalize the black woman, yes or no?
Oh no. Between Sloane dropping that gringo Spanish and Shepherd’s racial anxiety my stomach is starting to turn.
ok, why does river from firefly have christina tripping like this?
Okay, this is just lazy. In this scene, the Chief (yes I still call him that) wakes up to the smoke alarm and realizes that Adele isn’t in bed next to him. Ostensibly he rushes to the kitchen in order to find Adele and the source of the smoke. The problem, of course, is that he’s in his pajamas in one scene, but by the time he makes it to the kitchen, he’s—lol—in a pressed button-up shirt! C’mon Team Shonda!
i’m losing track of time.
have we really been doing this for three weeks, folks?
why are we still watching these shows?
memo to sam: “you are the selfish one.”
*slow clap*
pretty sure naomi said something similar before she bounced. do black women disappear from private practice only after they tell this crowd about themselves?
oh, pretty jake
i am so worried about you. you sure about this whole addison thing? because i am really not sure the meryl streep of fetal medicine/bad relationship choices is the way to go, my friend.
rejecting alt-bailey
maybe homegirl was a little pushy, but let the record show that “oops” happened before she started talking. this whole scene of white guy mcauthorizing black guy to put black woman in her place broke my heart a little. this is “arriving?!”
