apocalypsosOh, Michael. Seriously, nothing short of a sledgehammer is going to sink the how embarrassing he is into that thick skull of his.
But! But! Jim called Pam cute! Come ON, show! Can they pleeeeeease hook up sometime this century? I really like Roy and Karen and it's starting to feel like we're punishing them, for Pete's sake.
Also, all of those people acting like idiots, and the one I most wanted to smack was Kelly. What a frickin' airhead.

Okay, as someone who wrote a Meade-cest story which prominently featured a running joke about Alex's penis being in a jar somewhere, the actual show prominently featuring a running joke about Alex's penis being in a jar somewhere had me shrieking. And then Alexis made a crack about Daniel staring at her breasts, and that high-pitched squealing started up all over again. Oh, show. Playing into the incestuous vibes is just mean. ;)
Also, I don't think we've ever seen a picture of Alex Meade but how much do I love the casting director for getting a guy who looked EXACTLY like Rebecca Romijn would have looked if she'd started out a man? *snickers*
Oh, and Alexis and Betty bonding over how to get rid of their mustaches? I blame that scene for my sudden urge to write Betty-and-Alexis bonding fic.
Speaking of Alexis bonding with people, her and Marc admiring Wilhelmina's drama queen hysterics? Oh, YES.
Claire Meade was just awesome tonight, wasn't she? There was a part of me that suspected she might be the one who killed Fey -- she had motive, God knows, and all of Bradford's manipulating didn't necessarily have to be on his behalf. That's the great thing about this show -- that the theory out in left field is just as much of a player at the one pitching. And I don't know where the hell the baseball metaphor is coming from, but whatever. How much do I adore the fact that she went out shopping for her eldest-son-turned-only-daughter? "How do you think this would look on your sister?" Another thing I want to write -- Claire taking her daughter out shopping and to the spa and to lunch and to get their nails and hair done and both enjoying having her son back and having a blast having a daughter.
And ... and ... BETTY BROKE UP WITH WALTER TO BE WITH HENRY WHO WAS VERY CALM AND POLITE ABOUT ONLY GETTING TO BE A FRIEND AND THEN HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND CAME AND AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. And yes, I totally thought for the briefest of instances that it would turn out to be Diane and Henry would turn out to be Jake Foley undercover. I really should be stopped. ;) But we're so going to have met the ex before, aren't we? It's just, HELLO. I've watched this show before.
Meanwhile I want to keep Justin as my pet and let him pick out my clothes.

It's okay if I still have residual still-want-to-punch-her-in-the-face feelings about Izzie, right? Because she wasn't nearly as annoying as Sidney was and STILL.
Honest to God, how much did I want to hurt Sidney? If only to get her to shut UP. Bailey doesn't give a damn about Chief Resident, you dumb bint, which you would know if you'd actually ever met her, and that's why she's going to end up getting it in the end. Because she isn't running around trying to stuff orange juice down pale kids's throat to get the position, she's actually DOING HER JOB and being ridiculously awesome at it.
You know what else? At this point I don't even need Addison and Alex to hook up romantically. I mean, I would adore it to little pieces and think they were the hottest of hot if they did, but mostly I just want them to work together and be the awesome ob-gyn team they are.
Also, I know I hate Mark, but when he said, "You don't have highlights. That's why it looks odd," I was like, "YES! Thank you! That's what's wrong with it!" And I'm never one to notice that shit, but honestly, Chief, if you're going to get the gray out, have it worked on professionally. (Although I think you look great for an older guy especially with the gray, but what do I know?)
Christina wanting to tell Meredith first about the engagement seemed like a fair request to me, although I think it's been made obvious thanks to the rumor mill that is Seattle Grace that she's got a damn good reason for wanting to tell her first. On the other hand, Burke had a point. Woman, you had forty-five minutes and you didn't say anything. *smacks her upside the head* It does say something that while she can't tell about her own engagement, she appeared to have an easy enough time tattling on George and Callie last week. And how telling was it from a storytelling standpoint that the Chief immediately follows up congratulations on the engagement by saying to Christina (referring to the disaster), "Hope for the best but prepare for the worst"? Oh, shit's goin' DOWN, y'all.
