South Dakota Dark: "I need to start drinking during the day": Gleanage cleanage: I'll admit it. Grey's Anatomy kinda has me hooked, and these episodes haven't even really been very good! There's something about a beautiful cast and a hospital setting that just gets me hook, line & sinker. This week's melodrama included one good storyline, where Little Miss Sunshine Abigail Breslin played a girl who could feel no pain. The rest ranged from boringly obvious (George confesses to Callie that he needs space; Cristina realizes she needs to motivate Burke to get well) to boringly boring (Meredith continues toying with the boring vet and McDreamy, but still comes out thinking she's been wronged) right to boringly incredibly annoying (Izzie stands outside the hospital for the whole episode, trying to work up the courage to talk to the Chief). Izzie's journey this season has been particularly laborious, and having her stand motionless for a whole episode seemed distressingly similar to having her lie motionless for a whole episode just two weeks ago. Grey's can also be very amateur in the way that it links patients' sufferings to the doctors' inner turmoils amateur that's apt, and everything going on here really did hit the nail on the head in a yawnsome, formulaic manner. NEVERTHELESS. Have you noticed how pretty the cast is? 22.48 million Americans can't be wrong!
