I hate that it's going to be on hiatus for a bit, but Grey's is the one show that I watch religiously whether it's a rerun or not. I also watch it at it's original air time as opposed to DVRing it (well, I do that too ), so if they at least throw some reruns on, I won't be totally bereft. Still, I definitely prefer reruns from this season, so I can get my Owen fix.

(snip) But back at Seattle Grace, Cristina already has a budding relationship with ex-military doc Owen Hunt, played by Kevin McKidd. The pair shared a steamy kiss early on, but Oh likes that they haven’t become an instant McCouple. “It’s a nice, slow romance,” she says. “A lot of time people on Grey’s get together quickly, but that’s not the case here. It’s nice to be able to see a relationship develop and grow.” “I’m very happy with my story lines and I work hard on them, and the other things you just can’t control,” she says. “If someone is going to hate my character or Cristina’s romance with Owen, that’s up to them. I know that myself and Kevin McKidd work really, really hard and putting in some rich work, and so that’s all I concentrate on tvwatch.people.com/2008/12/03/sandra-oh-talks-greys-private-practice-crossovers/

Pete Nowalk on "All By Myself"... Original Airdate: 12-4-08 So you watch this TV show for a few seasons. You really enjoy it. Admire it. Learn from it. You even read the writers’ blog every once in awhile – just to see what these writer people are actually like. Wondering what it’s like to be them. Dreaming about being them… And then it happens. You’re now sitting in a room with these people. These talented, hard-working, funny writers who you quickly realize you have no business being around. This happened to me. And I freaked out. Big time. Going to work everyday was an exercise in panic. Nausea, nightmares, shaky voice…symptoms of what’s commonly referred to as an all out, no-doubt-about-it, yikes-is-he-sweating, better-start-looking-for-a-new-career, you-don’t-need-to-be-a-doctor-to-diagnose-it FREAK OUT. Which is all to say I get Alex in this episode. (Okay, okay, so I know writing an episode of television isn’t really comparable to what it must feel like to operate on someone all by yourself, but that’s why I’m happy to be a writer and not, say, a second year surgical resident. I freak out easily.) It’s kind of a big deal, performing your first solo surgery. One of two things could happen – your patient lives or your patient dies. And since this surgery is a very simple, very easy below-the-knee amputation, a dead patient means you killed them. No wonder Alex freaked out. Alex is one of those characters who’s still a little mysterious. He likes sex, yeah. He has a sick sense of humor, sure. He’s a pretty rotten communicator, no duh. But now we know he loves Izzie. Loooooves her. Which he finally told her off the thrill of winning the solo surgery. Alex needed this win. This is the dude that failed his boards and froze during the heart surgery in the elevator. Winning the solo – and having Cristina of all people pick him – finally allowed Alex to believe in himself. And with that came believing in himself with Izzie. Who makes him better. Who gives him the warm and cozies inside. Who is still. Seeing. Denny. Okay, I know what you’re thinking. Or I don’t. But what I do know is that it’s confusing. Alex loves Izzie. He’s been good to her. SO WTF IS THAT GIRL THINKING? She’s not thinking. That’s the point. Because when we think we tend to screw things up. We over-think. Or under-think. Or just think about thinking. And it’s exhausting. To the point where it’s easier to just shut your mind off sometimes, to just go with the flow. So that’s what Izzie is doing. She’s throwing caution to the wind. She’s letting it ride. She’s saying F&$# IT! And I don’t blame her. Who knows how long Denny will be here, or when Alex will confront her about the bizarro behavior, or what – if anything – there is to learn from Denny while he’s here. So like Izzie, I’m choosing to say F%$# it. Go on, try it. Shout it. Scream it to the rafters. F&%$^&^*^**&*#### IT!!!!!!!!! Feels good, right? Now for the people still reading (Don’t give up on me yet. I know I’m new. I’ll try to curse less…) I have one word for you. Hi. A simple word, yup, but loaded with meaning when you haven’t said it for 5 years. Sometimes when we research these medical stories I can’t believe what we find out about the world. How many scary medical conditions there are. How wrong things can go. It makes you wonder how the hell any of us are still walking around living. Which is why it’s a kind of miracle that, sometimes, there’s a surgery to make life better. Mark Sloan gave this woman back her voice. Pretty d**n cool. Also cool is Lexie working so hard to get this very stubborn, very scared woman to speak. Lexie was doing it for the husband, yes, but also for Mark. She knew how much this surgery meant to him. He’s not all boob jobs all the time after all (yes, that’s directed at you Dr. Bailey). So you can imagine how psyched Lexie must have been to tell Mark that the surgery worked. And, oh yeah, ask him to teach her. Teach her what?? Um… I don’t know about you but that moment right before Mark gave in – when he was trying with all his might to not do the thing he knew he shouldn’t do but oh-so-wanted to do – was a pretty great window into the kinder, gentler McSteamy. Mark was trying to be good, for Derek and for himself, but he’s also human. And he’s Mark. And Lexie was there. All vulnerable. All beautiful. All HALF NAKED. Hell, even I wouldn’t be able to deny her in that moment (and I bat for the other team). As long as Meredith and Derek don’t find out about these two. I guess Meredith’s got her hands full worrying about Cristina anyway though. She hoped their fight from the last episode would blow over. Two weeks of civil-yet-heated interactions and all would be fine. Not quite. Not even when she tried to apologize in the gallery. Because Meredith said the one thing that set Cristina off. She said, “I know why you made it personal.” And that’s all it took for Cristina to blow. Cristina who had been working SO HARD all day to keep it together – to hear out each of her fellow residents as they described why they deserved the solo even though she herself had truly won it. All the Attendings picked her. Every single one. Even Derek (who smartly told Mer it was because he didn’t want it to look like he was playing favorites. And Mer was fine with it. Let’s hear it for relationship maturity!). So Cristina blew. She had to. No one can keep their feelings bottled up forever. Thank god Owen was there to show her his secret place…
Ew, not that secret place. THE VENT PEOPLE. The cold, dank, dirty-in-a-good-way vent. My one regret from my time on the set is that I didn’t get to take a test-spin on that puppy. Cause the vent is real, folks. You can’t CGI hair-blowing like that. And it apparently makes you want to kiss people. Owen has so many tricks up his sleeve. It’s kinda hot. And Cristina needed that vent. Especially after the day which included working with Dr. Dixon. Dr. Dixon who sees the world in her own very unique way. Sure, it might have seemed insensitive how she kept pressing this family to donate their daughter’s organs. But it also didn’t make sense to her. Embrace the science, leave feelings out of it – that’s what she told Cristina. Donating the organs would save lives. So why let feelings get in the way? Cristina understood this, and it’s exactly what allowed her to pick Alex for the solo. Let’s move on to something a little less girl-in-a-coma depressing and more girl-in-a-sexual-awakening fun. Callie’s like a teenager right now. Confused, awkward, horny. And she’s trying to figure out her new, liking-girls life. Cause girls are different than boys. They flirt in a different way. In a way that might not even be flirting. Like Sadie. Who is quite a flirty gal. But is she flirty with everyone? Is that just her nature? Or is she actually flirting with Callie? Or does she just need a new friend because everyone in the hospital thinks she’s flat out CRAZY? Sadie’s got some stuff going on in that flirty little head of hers. Now if only Callie could figure it out. Or figure herself out. Maybe she should take a page from Izzie and say, “F@ IT!” After all it worked for Alex. It’s what allowed him to make his first cut on the leg amputation dude. And since we know he’s going to rock the hell out of the rest of that surgery, it doesn’t seem like the worst idea out there. So try it. Do something that totally freaks you out today. I will too. First up, posting this blog... writers blog www.greyswriters.com/remember you can comment on this site and let then know what you thought of the episode

Hi ! Grey's on set: Grey's Anatomy Filming at The BiscuitWe can see Patrick Dempsey behind the Cristina's apartment. Actually, Cristina crosses the street to get in a car :a Land Rover. Owen's car? I hope !!!!! It's looks like a military car.

I think it's Derek's car but I'm hoping that it's OWEN in that car. There's a chance that it could be Meredith though and that Derek is trying to get them together to talk it out. But I prefer the speculation that Owen is having some issues and Derek drives him to Cristina's so she can help...

Thank U Marcy =) I think it's Derek's car but I'm hoping that it's OWEN in that car. There's a chance that it could be Meredith though and that Derek is trying to get them together to talk it out. But I prefer the speculation that Owen is having some issues and Derek drives him to Cristina's so she can help... I remember that Derek's car is grey, not white. But I'm not sure, I saw his car in season 1 (that was really quickly!) I hope Derek is informed about Cristina and Owen. Then I hope he came to say her that she has to say it to Meredith because she's her best friend, she's his girlfriend and he can't hide the truth about Cristina & Owen.

Or maybe t's Derek's car. I watch again the episode 9 (season 2) and Derek probably drives this car. Maybe he wants to talk with Cristina because Owen and her are fighting, or something else. Maybe there's this problem with the post-traumatic stress, and that makes some problems on the relationship. And Derek wants to help Owen, because they became friends. (In reality, Derek is very helpful and nice. He just needs to better know Owen and his problem). He said to Cristina that Owen is in his car and she has to talk with him..Then she across the street to meet Owen. --> Or...It's Meredith in the car. Derek wants to reconcile them. ?? I found this video (Derek's car, season 2) fr.youtube.com/watch?v=64JY6b0Ph8wWell, finally, I think that Meredith is in the car Sorry (again) for my bad english. Tell me your opinion about these photos.

It might not have anything to do with Owen perhaps Meridith and Derek had a fight and Meridith went to Christina for support - not sure if these are photos of the actual filming or PD just sitting around during a take....but he looks a bit down

It's mostly babble. Babblecast. BS-cast.
But anyway, they talk some about Owen and Cristina and the hot vent. They call Owen the "hot vent" because he makes Cristina lose control (something which is so very out of character for her). I liked that analogy. They also talked about Owen as Heathcliff briefly again and how this is a Victorian style romance (slow and repressed, I gather).

Thanks for the info Kaz. Owen as the 'hot vent' is a little weird sounding. In some ways he's very cold indeed as he can't really handle his own emotions, let alone hers. Fanfic fodder for me and many others I'm sure.
Leanne, it might be my computer. *shrugs* I just got the page cannot be displayed error.
