Shonda's all but flat out said they get together, & what Shonda wants Shonda gets, the opinion of anyone else or common sense be damned. I'm with you. Their friendship is great, & I cringed at the end of the last episode when Alex began looking at her as a romantic interest.

Also, the new interns don't interest me at all. I love Grey's, but it needs to end before it's completely ruined.

[philstar22]

Shonda thinks couples are destined to be together. Every character has their partner that is set out as destined on the show. The only reason that changes is if the other character leaves. Shonda is never subtle with couples. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I don't think it works well here, and the sense I get is that much of the fandom agrees.

UGH, THIS.

I just...I know it's her show and she has the final say but the fact is, not every couple is MEANT TO BE. Some people are just too different or want such different things out of life that keeping them together makes NO sense. You have to change some fundamental things about the characters in order to make it work and that should NEVER happen. Yes people can grow and change but to give them an entire personality switch JUST so your couple can stay together is ridiculous.

Ehh, I don't completely agree: I am pretty sure that all of Callie's pairings up until Arizona were always going to be doomed. Possibly Shonda had Arizona lined up for her!

Ugh, that makes me sad :(

[philstar22]

I agree those earlier couples were going to be doomed. But none of those were the Shonda made for each other couples. Those were more like Derek and Addison or Meredith with the vet. I meant in terms of the made for each other couples. Like, Meredith and Derek were never going to permanently break up. And if Lexie and Mark hadn't left the show, they would have gotten back together even though they'd never actually worked on their problems. Because they were made for each other, so it didn't matter.

[thinkatory]

Damn it, you're right.

Why do I still love this show why
I was going to watch Scandal instead but that totally sounds even worse if that's possible

[philstar22]

I watch it for the characters. Shonda's characters are compelling. She has kind of messed up views on relationships and very rigid views on gender. But she writes great characters. And there are some couples like Callie/Arizona that do work.

[thinkatory]

Yeah, and personally I have a deep and abiding love for Alex Karev (and always have) but he's not everyone's cup of tea. Also Meredith. I'm sticking it out for Meredith, for the most part, because I want her to have a happy ending with her bbs and McDreamy etc.

[philstar22]

Sorry, I can't stand Alex. I can sympathize with him to a certain extent, but mostly he's a giant ass.

I have an interesting relationship with Meredith. She's pretty much me in a lot of ways. And some of the traits I share with her are the things I hate in myself. I don't dislike her per say, I just can't love her because I relate to her too much. But I want her to have her happy ending too.
