the Addison Show

o.k., I was totally psyched up for this 2 hour event with the unleashing of a brand new series helmed by my fav grey's character Addison Montgomery. about 35 minutes into the show I was ready for bed. zzzzz. what a lame beginning. But I guess all shows have to start out somewhat lame in order to build characters and crap like that. I did perk up when Tim Daly leaned in for the tongue kiss and Addy almost fell to her knees. That was kinda hot. All in all...not excited for the new series. I give it a year. meanwhile....back up north with the doc's we all know and love....Cristina finds a dress, and they somehow both end up unexpectedly happy and calm. I'm sure that will be temporary. Izzie assures Callie that she's fine being in a wedding with her, but then breaks down with George and basically begs him not to leave the hospital, which ends in them making out. But the worst news is saved for last- Susans complications continue to get worse, until they need to rush her into surgery. Meredith has the task of having to tell her father that his wife is dead, and he responds by slapping her and basically blaming her for what happened. She copes by doing tequila shots with Izzie and Alex which Derek sees them doing from the window. he ends up walking away instead of going inside. So just when it looked like Meredith's life was finally starting to come together and be a little bit happy, it begins to fall apart again just about as horribly as always.
