In the third season of
Grey's Anatomy, one medical intern will get married to a superior while another is left standing at the altar. Two interns will lose their parents. And one main character will try to commit suicide--or not fight very hard to save her own life. There will be multiple hook-ups, infidelity, and trust issues. In between the soap opera-style drama that attracts millions of viewers each week, interns Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh), Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers), and George O'Malley (T.R. Knight) will also perform some medical miracles. At the end of season 2, Izzie was distraught over the death of her fiancé, Denny. Now she finds that her very rich boyfriend has left her millions of dollars. Instead of putting the money into the bank and allowing it to accrue interest until she decides what she wants to do with it--as sensible Dr. Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson) suggests--Izzie mopes around the house in an irritating stupor. Actually, irritating is an apt description for several of the main characters. It takes a leap of faith to believe that sexy, spectacular, and rich orthopedic surgeon Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez) would be even vaguely interested in wishy-washy George. Previously, he'd convinced himself that he was in love with Meredith. Now he's pining for his other roommate, Izzie, even though he's already got Callie. And rather than welcoming her into their fold, Izzie and Meredith (and to a lesser extent Cristina) give Callie the mean-girls treatment. They may have rebuffed him at one point, but they don't want Callie to have him, either. There is something very needy about this group of interns who have no one to turn to but each other when a crisis occurs.
Viewers get some insight into "dark and twisty" Meredith's upbringing, as she spends more time with her cold and demanding mother, who is suffering from Alzheimer's, and her milquetoast father, who didn't fight very hard to have contact with her as a child after her mom kicked him out of their house. It's no wonder Meredith ended up emotionally damaged and unwilling to completely open up to Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) ... a.k.a. McDreamy. Though the show's title implies that Meredith is the most important character, it's not true. The ensemble cast, which also includes James Pickens Jr. as Dr. Richard Webber (who had a long and complicated affair with Meredith's mother) and Kate Walsh as Derek's ex-wife Addison, is fantastic. And it's difficult to outshine Oh, who has some of this season's funniest and emotional moments as she navigates a relationship with Preston Burke (Isaiah Washington), who is far more romantic and traditional than she is. Though not as compelling as the show's debut season, this third year still packs a strong emotional punch. --Jae-Ha Kim

| The series went from amazing and addictive to dull and really pathetic. Somebody said is because they wanted to last their contract with ABC (is that a good excuse??) come on!! It seemed that Meredith was looking for excuses to keep suffering... and is just so boring!!. The medical dramas and situations were no longer original and it was like they kept going in the same over and over, same with all the relationships.... I was a real fan of the show ( I even found myself wishing the summer (2006) to finish so they release season three) I just got so deceived, I never ever watch it again... |

I have seriously become addicted to Grey's Anatomy. I had Season 3 for only 4 days and managed to watch the whole thing during the work week, which took some planning.
Season 3 picks up where it left off with Izzy still in shock over loosing Denny and her friends rallying around her in support. Each episode had at least one moment where I was either laughing, crying or nodding in agreement.
**** Spoiler Alert****
Meredith has a lot of happy and sad moments in this season. Her mom dies, she almost dies, her relationship with Derek gets better and then worse after her near death experience. We see a cute love triangle between her, Derek and Finn(the vet) played by Chris O'Donnell.
Izzy, George and Callie have there own little love triangle. I found it hard to believe that Izzy would be in love with George that quickly after loosing Denny, unless her feelings for him were unrealized. The chemistry between Izzy and George is very good and I found the scenes between them after they remembered that they'd been together very well acted out. But, I don't like Izzy and George as a couple. I actually like Callie and her quirky-ness. I get her sense of humor and it's fun to see how into George she is.
Lastly Christina and Burke's wedding drama ending with him leaving her at the altar was awful. I was crying with them in the season finale where emotionless Christina is being cut out of her dress by Meredith and the show ends with her sobbing.
The cliffhangers were amazing...George didn't pass his intern exam, Ava left the hospital with her husband and baby making Alex wonder if he made a mistake. And Bailey didn't get chief resident, Callie did.
Can't wait for Season 4 to arrive!!!I'm totally hooked! 5 stars!!!! |

| I can't help it--I like this show, and I liked this season!! I have my usual complaints about the show captions not being what the actors say, but ALL of the extra stuff I watched (and I think I watched it all) was captioned. This is most appreciated! |
