Holla if you're a lesbian! http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/ ---------------------------------------------------- Grey’s exclusive: Denny bids farewell to Izzie – May 1, 2009 Okay, now he's really dead. Jeffrey Dean Morgan confirms that he'll reprise his role as Denny on Grey's Anatomy before the end of the season. But then that's it. Really. "I can confirm that I will be coming back one more time," he revealed to us at last night's Hollywood premiere of Star Trek. "I think it will be done after that. I think I have been on the Grey's Anatomy set for the last time." Morgan wouldn't say when exactly Denny turns up, but I can confirm that he'll reappear as a figment of Izzie's cancer-ravaged imagination in next Thursday's wedding-themed 100th episode. "Denny has a reason to show up," Morgan teases, "and it is probably tied to Izzie's health." Given the number of times Denny has returned to Grey's since croaking three years ago, Morgan states the obvious when he says, "I think they're regretting killing me off a little bit. But it's done and it's been great and I love those people. [Series creator] Shonda Rhimes gave me the opportunity of a lifetime." http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/05/greys-exclusive.html --------------------------- --------------------------- --------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ask or Watch with Kristen --------------------------- --------------------------- --------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ET ---- E!Online 'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: Parental Controls Meredith's dad returns to make amends, but it's the chief's apology that counts the most. Meanwhile, Izzie's mother shows up to "help" her through her cancer treatment. Anybody else now anxiously awaiting their invite to the Mer-Der nuptials? I am now. The sight of Derek in his fancy-schmancy tux really pushed me over the edge of excitement — and also reminded me of how intensely I used to crush on him the first few seasons before I was numbed by everyone's constant fawning over him. It also brought home the fact that they're finally getting married, and I felt as thrilled for them as I would be for my own long-suffering-in-love friends. That, incidentally, is the magic of Grey's Anatomy: We feel like we've been through everything with these people, and we love them like real-life friends even when they annoy us. Speaking of friends, Callie and Mark have become one of my favorite BFF pairings on TV, and I've grown perfectly content to see them as nothing more — despite their earlier on-call-room dalliances. They have some great small moments of friendship, none more so than tonight when Mark told Callie he had a present for her, and she told him she didn't want his pity money, but then was disappointed to find out he wasn't offering her cash. He said it was better than that, and took her to a patient. ''She fell out of a tree and broke all her limbs,'' he told her. Her response: ''Oooh, this is better.'' Another reason we love our Grey's: dark-and-twistiness. The focus soon switched from friends to family, though, as Meredith and Lexie's dad — 29 days out of rehab, apparently — showed up in the Chief's office to make amends. And when the Chief recommended some support groups in the area because he's been there himself, Thatcher (whose wife, you know, spent years cheating on him with the Chief) even said, ''that's one more thing we have in common.'' Awwwkward. Though apparently the Chief was hell-bent on making his own kind of amends with old Thatch because soon enough, he was paging the Grey girls into his office. ''Did we kill anyone lately and don't remember?'' Meredith asked Lexie, wondering what the urgent matter was. But the Chief simply wanted to beg the ladies to hear their dad out. They (begrudgingly, in Meredith's case) did, and then Meredith declared coldly, ''Congratulations. You seem well. Good luck.'' She calmly left, leaving Lexie to hug it out with the dad who didn't abandon her. Things just got more parent-tastic from there when Sharon Lawrence showed up as Izzie's mom. The first thing out of her mouth: ''Excuse me, young and yummy doctor.'' Yeah, that was to Alex. Awwwkward, once again. No matter though, she was thrilled to find out he was Izzie's BF, and thrilled to be clucking around Izzie's hospital room in her totally-Forever 21 hot pink off-the-shoulder top. Izzie wondered aloud who the hell called her mom and asked her to come, and, well, who could blame her? Mom was doing Izzie's Tarot cards and calling her psychic to see how the whole cancer thing would turn out — and for the record, her phone psychic felt skin cancer was treatable if caught early enough. ''That's great,'' Izzie sighed. ''A psychic with Internet access.'' Mom was a little worried, though, because she'd watched an episode of Tyra (brilliant!) about a girl whose cancer started with a ''mole on her privates'': ''It was bad. She was bald and everything.'' http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20276006,00.html --------------------------- Has the Fake Grey's Wedding Registry Raised Cash? - May 4, 2009 The Grey's Anatomy wedding has me curious: Is their fake wedding registry on the Knot getting any response from people in real life? —GreyLife, Oregon The McDreamy McWedding is in fact spurring real donations to real charities, via the gift registry on the Knot website. In honor of the fictional wedding between Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey), fans are encouraged to donate to one of three charities close to the hearts of the Grey's characters, including brain-disease research. One Grey's character has already plunked down some cash. Care to guess who? Izzie, of course. Head over to this brain-research charity site, operated by the American Academy of Neurology, and look at the wall of floating brains. Each represents a donation to the foundation. See the brain with stars all over it? That's Izzie's. ("Congratulations Mer!" the accompanying comment reads. "I am so happy that you and Derek are finally getting married!" So, I assume, are Parkinson's disease researchers.) I hear that show producers, not Katherine Heigl, arranged that donation, but it's sweet nonetheless. The donations so far are modest—search the brain wall at the site above, and you can see that a handful of people have donated in honor of the TV couple. But to the charities, the uptick is also significant. "We're not getting tons of money," says Joyce Weidler, managing director of the American Skin Association, another of the three chosen charities. "But we are getting donations." Just last week, Weidler estimates, six people donated to the association because of the Grey's wedding registry. The Alzheimer's Association, the third charity, also tells me it is getting more money because of Grey's as well, though it has yet to tally hard numbers. You can make your own McDonation by heading to the Knot registry. http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/ask_the_answer_bitch/b122125_has_fake_greys_wedding_registry_raised.html?utm_source=eonline&utm_medium=rssfeeds&utm_campaign=imdb_topstories --------------------------- Matt's TV Week in Review - May 3, 2009 Apology Accepted: This week’s Grey’s Anatomy was all about making amends: Thatcher with his estranged Grey daughters, the Chief with Meredith, Izzy with her over-the-top mom, and most memorably, Owen with Cristina, revealing that what looked like a brush-off was actually his way of letting her off the emotional hook. “Take care now” being a substitute for those three other words he can’t bear to say to her because it would just rub salt in her psychic (and physical) wounds. Who needs words when the looks Kevin McKidd and Sandra Oh give each other speak volumes of hurt? http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/matt-roush-daily-review/matts-tv-week-in-review-927.html?page=2 --------------------------- --------------------------- SHONDA’S “TWITTERS” @shondarhimes hey, so we know you wrote the 100th epi, i guessed maybe the 23rd epi is written by sum1 else, tony phelan & joan rater maybe?12:48 PM Apr 24th from web - greysaddict @greysaddict Allan Heinberg wrote episode 523...(the 101st episode).3:13 PM Apr 24th from web in reply to greysaddict- shondarhimes Another working weekend.
