Just saw the first five minutes of Grey’s Anatomy’s season opener (courtesy of E!online) and I’m gripped. In the opening scene, we see George on the surgical table, unrecognizable, while Derek stands at his open skull, trying to save him. At the same time, we see Izzie fighting for her life and suddenly opening her eyes just as George flatlines. Callie starts hyperventilating, while she sees George’s life slip away, while Alex breathes a sigh of relief. It’s definitely a bittersweet moment, one that makes this episode so heartbreakingly hard to watch. In the next scene, we see the girl George saved run up to Mark and Lexi and ask who George is, that George is John Doe. Running to the OR, Lexi sees the patient and says, “That’s not George…he’s tall…that’s not George.” What?!
This is why I love Grey’s so much, their ability to grip you, even when you know he’s a goner. I will definitely be watching with a big box of Kleenex by my side.
Grey’s Anatomy premieres Thursday, September 24th at 9pm. It’s a two hour episode, so don’t forget to set your DVR’s!
