I thought we might want a post to talk about Greys, Scandal, HTGAWM and other Thursday night shows here.
Tonight is Grey’s 300th episode and there will be lots of nods to actors who are no longer on the show. Plus Shonda has promised lots of Easter Eggs. Easter eggs in TV shows and movies are little interesting tidbits for the hardcore fans to uncover. Sometimes they give hints of things to come.
Tonight on Scandal Quinn and Charlie get married. Maybe.
And HTGAWM will continue to confuse and confound me and I will need it all explained to me in comments.
PLEASE DO NOT SPOIL OR DISCUSS PROJECT RUNWAY IN COMMENTS.
Feel free to discuss any other Thursday night shows you are watching here.
I will switch over in about 30 minutes to avoid the commercials. I watch Grey’s and Scandal. I have never gotten in to HTGAWM. I tried a few episodes because I really like Viola Davis…but I just never could find my groove with it.
I missed the big moment on Greys and only found out about it by reading a Shonda tweet. Apparently, Meredith “saw” her mother (who is dead) in the audience of the awards ceremony. It was a weird episode with lots of look a likes.
I was probably busy breaking my tooth TASTING CLAM CHOWDER during that scene.
sucks about the tooth hope not a major repair.
Olivia has totally turned into her father. I was hoping for Olivia and Fitz in Vermont. That seems highly unlikely now.
i’m so confused about Scandal. i keep thinking i missed episodes or a season. why is she so mean and annoying??!! it makes me not want to watch it at all or watch in reruns. many friends aren’t watching because of it
In other news, while I am slagging off of work today…
The Boy In A Red Vest painting makes me think of when I briefly live in a Chicago suburb. The school bus was in the front of the next apartment complex over. So I would get off there and take the back way through that complex to get to mine. The dumpsters for the other complex were in the back and one day on the way home there was a print of that painting in a really pretty gold frame leaning against one of the dumpsters.
My mother confiscated it. It eventually ended up in our basement hanging on the wall by the laundry room. I imagine it is still there. The entire contents of that house where I grew up someone came into the possession of one of my nephews because my brother refused to inventory the house when my father died as my sister with cancer and her son were living there and she would have made it a huge drama.
Anyway, I’ve always liked that picture. /end of rambling
Next week is the WINTER finale of Scandal.
WHERE IS SHE?
It seems very early to wrap for the holidays. I can’t wait for the finale episodes.
I think she’s crossed over and it’s Olivia fault ? I hope not…
TT, you’re not supposed to be potentially breaking a tooth while tasting clam chowder. Technically, not even while you’re eating it.
I haven’t watched Grey’s Anatomy since they killed off McDreamy. Truth be told, though, I admit that I used to watch it for the laughs (job hazard)–but every so often, in the narratives regarding patients, they used to strike an occasional chord that would make me cry.
With so much time on my hands, maybe I should give it a try again.
I only watch Grey’s.. Not on yet, here.
Can I go off topic here? My M2M recapper has been dying to recap forever. We’ve met. She’s local. She knows people. Last Sunday I sent her some guidelines and we were both super excited about her recap.
Nothing came on Sunday night but that happens with new recappers.
On Monday morning at 8 am she emailed me and said she was moving and there was an issue with the new DVR so she was back at the old house and it would be coming soon.
So I waited. Nothing on Monday but clearly she was off to a late start.
Tuesday came and nothing. Wednesday nothing, So I really don’t want to bother people that agree to recap, She has a real job. The world is extremely depressing to me this week. So the last thing I want to do is pressure her to get it done, By this point timing doesn’t even matter. I don’t watch so it’s like a bonus show for me…..
Now I am starting to really worry. I’m going to look around for her phone number. If I call someone on the phone I am normally drunk.
Should I be worried? She is probably just moving, right?
Maybe she’s having a panic attack. Moving can do that to you. T you and the other recappers do such a fantastic job she may be filled with anxiety. Plus she’s late and may be too embarrassed. Just a thought.
i agree that could be the case
I don’t have a lot of faith in people, so I’m not the one to reassure you, TT lol.
Guessing all of the above…and then some.
I watch M2M and really was drawn in to the first episode, hadn’t heard about Jackie’s split during the off season so I watched more closely then usual…not my need to watch right away show but I’ll be watching this season more closely, looks like a lot of internal struggles within the families and not set up drama with the ladies…
I thought Grey’s has been great this season, not the usual recipe, (two patients, one dies, the staff fights). Okay there was some fighting but it has overall been more interesting. Scandal is just so cold, I think Quinn is dead, she is obviously pregnant IRL, will have to take maternity leave, and how would a baby figure in the series? Quinn and Charlie juggling night feedings? I cant see it. It is the last season anyway, so they may kill everyone off. I hope Olivia didnt do it, I may have to stop watching if she did.
I really enjoyed this episode if Grey’s, I blubbed like a baby (which used to be a regular thing each episode but now, not so much).
Speaking of the greys Easter egg, there are many fans that are expecting merideth to get Alzheimers. Supposedly her seeing her mom is one of the first signs.
Also this Thursday is the winter finale for greys. What will I do until spring???
