And the two men in Ellis Grey's life (the Chief and Thatcher Grey) finally kinda throw down, and Izzie turns out to be a chip off the old block. Her mom, Robbie, is extremely chipper, like a less evil Tracy Flick. Source: Kristin on E!Online * new 04/17 - Does McSteamy "do" parents? That's the big question in the April 30 episode, when a now-sober Thatcher Grey invites his daughter and her new beau out to dinner.

Amazingly, his April 30 visit will bring Meredith and Lexie closer together. Source: TV Guide Online Episode 5.22: Beautiful Day (100th episode) Airdate: May 7, 2009 * new 04/17 - [From an email sent to Kristin:] "One of my coworkers was in Los Angeles on business, and when I called her and told her about Grey's filming the wedding scene, she freaked and found the set. She was there for the lunch break (she said there were two or three paps there too) but she said later Katherine Heigl was standing in the doorway with T.R. Knight , and she was smoking in a wedding dress. She had a big jacket/robe thing over it, but she said there was no doubt it was a wedding dress. She said Katherine was only in the doorway a minute or two before they called her back in, but she has no doubt that it was a wedding dress." Source: Kristin on E!Online * 04/13 - And as reported by Shonda Rhimes herself, Derek and Mer are supposed to be getting married in the upcoming 100th episode, and Izzie's dying wish is to give them the wedding she may or may not be able to ever have herself. Source: Kristin on E!Online * 04/13 - Via his Twitter account, Ausiello gave two clues regarding the wedding: It's not *e and *sa. It's not Cf and A*e. Source: Ausiello's Twitter Account [Note: The first clue seems to be "It's not Owen and Cristina. As for the second one, it may be "It's not the Chief and Adele.] 04/05 - The wedding taking place in the 100th episode on May 7? It's not Mer-Der after all! Source: The Ausiello Files * 04/05 - At a party marking the filming of Grey's Anatomy's 100th episode, series creator Shonda Rhimes confirmed that the milestone hour will air May 7 - and indicated that it might feature the nuptials of the show's central couple. "The only thing I'll tell you about the 100th episode is that it takes place on Meredith and Derek's wedding day," Rhimes told the Associated Press at the show's celebration. "That's big," Rhimes underscored, "and that's all I'm going to say." Of course, were one to be hyper-analytical and parse words, it's not for certain that the Mer-Der wedding goes without a hitch. For one, it would represent a mighty short engagement (he will have only non-proposed six weeks prior). Secondly, this is Meredith and Derek we are talking about. Thirdly and perhaps most importantly, Rhimes has previously said that the wedding taking place toward season's end would be a "surprise." Now, is that "surprise" as in the aforementioned short engagement or "surprise" as in the couple that emerges at the end of the aisle is not the same one that started down it? Source: TV Guide Online * 04/05 - Over at Grey's, series creator Shonda Rhimes has already confirmed that one of the show's couples will tie the knot later this season, and there's increasingly loud buzz that the event will take place on May 7, during the show's landmark 100th episode, appropriately titled "Beautiful Day." Adding to the speculation: The episode will feature a minister. Source: The Ausiello Files * 02/08 - Nathan, a male intern is eager to impress the doctors. He brags about doing a chest tube correctly on his first try. Later, he is upset because he thinks he may have killed a baby during a procedure. A female doctor will reassure him that the baby will be fine. Source: SpoilerFix.com * 11/20/2008 - Nathan: Male intern, mid 20's, Bi-racial (African American & Caucasian). He is smart and funny; a boy next door type. Recurring Guest Star. Source: SpoilerTV Episodes 5.23 and 5.24: Here's to Future Days (Season? finale) Airdate: May 14, 2009 from 9 to 10 p.m. * new 04/17 - At last night's Big Bang Theory event at PaleyFest '09, leading lady Kaley Cuoco revealed to EW exclusively that she's Seattle Grace-bound. "I am working on Grey's Anatomy next week," she confirmed. "It is a big ol' secret. I have no clue what I am doing. I swear on my life that I have no idea what I am playing because it is the finale and they are keeping it under wraps until the last possible moment." Source: The Ausiello Files * 04/13 - [Shonda] Rhimes has tapped two of my favorite actresses on the planet, Everwood's Debra Mooney and Gilmore Girls' Liza Weil, to guest star in the show's two-hour season finale on May 14. Mooney will play mom to Kevin McKidd's emotionally tormented Owen, while Weil will appear as a cancer patient who crosses paths with Izzie. [...] A Grey's insider is now confirming what I previously predicted: George will not only march off to war, but he'll be wounded (perhaps mortally) in the line of duty by season's end. [...] leaving his fate up in the air for viewers -- and even Knight himself. "T.R. doesn't know whether George lives or dies," explains a source close to the show. "And, as a result, he doesn't know whether or not he has to come back next season." Source: The Ausiello Files * 04/13 - At this point, our best guesstimate on the finale is that Izzie goes into remission (but the producers keep Katherine Heigl in line with the threat of new malignancies), while George joins the Army medical corps, sending him into the sunset in a way that keeps him available for sweeps-week guest spots if they can afford his fee. Source: Kristin on E!Online * 04/05 - Remember me telling you last month about a proposed storyline that would find George developing an interest in Owen's specialty as a military/trauma doc? You know, the one ABC insisted had been scrapped and replaced with something even better? Well, my colleague, Jennifer Armstrong, just spoke to Kevin McKidd, and the new story sounds a lot like the old one. "Hunt will start to see something in George that no one else has," McKidd revealed. "There's an event that happens and Hunt realizes there's a lot more to him... that he has a set of skills that maybe he isn't even aware of. And Hunt starts to mentor him in a way that gets really interesting." Translation: My initial theory about Shonda Rhimes having George join the military and go off to Iraq as a way of accommodating Knight's departure is so happening. Right? Source: The Ausiello Files * 04/05 - In the second-to-last episode of the season, we'll meet Ronnie, a "heartwarming" trailer-trash woman in her mid-to-late 40s, and the producers only want star names to play the part. Izzie famously grew up in a trailer park. Could this be her mother, come to Seattle to take her ailing daughter home? Source: Kristin on E!Online * 04/05 - Sarah: 60s, Caucasian, Irish looking, working class mom. Jordan's Mother: Early to mid 50s, Caucasian, upper class parent of patient in the hospital. Jordan's Father: Early to mid 50s, Caucasian, upper class parent of patient in the hospital. Jordan's Boyfriend: Mid to late 20s, all ethnicities, boyfriend of patient in the hospital. Recruiting Officer: In his 40s to 50s, all ethnicities, an officer who looks straight off of a military recruiting poster. Good looks, and tough. Recruiting Clerk: In his mid 20s, all ethnicities. Military clerk at the recruiting office. Source: SpoilerTV General Spoilers: * 04/05 - [Cristina and Owen] are far from over. As Kevin McKidd himself told EW's Jennifer Armstrong, the exes will be thrown "a huge curveball that neither of them see coming. Just as he starts to get over his thing, something else happens. Which is good and bad. It's like, 'Oh my God, this is big.' It will be interesting to see how it leads into next season." Source: The Ausiello Files * 02/27 - The show may be giving Meredith another long-lost sibling -- this one a byproduct of her mother's affair with the Chief. Source: The Ausiello Files * 02/23 - The latest Grey's Anatomy rumor making the rounds has Shonda Rhimes mulling a bait and switch that would find terminally ill Izzie living and George dying. Source: The Ausiello Files * 02/12 - According to inside sources who work on Grey's, it is likely that Heigl and Knight will make an exit at the end of the current season. Both have asked to leave the show. However, ABC needs to sign off on letting them out of their contracts, which has not been done. Source: Kristin on E!Online [Note: Shonda Rhimes claims Heigl and Knight are not leaving the show.] * 12/04/2008 - A source close to the show tells me, "The reason [the actor] has not been on is because [he or she] has been a pain in the ass lately, trying to change scenes and dialogue, being hard to work with and putting up an attitude. The higher-ups were getting tired of it, so they tweaked [him or her] out of some episodes. That's why you haven't really seen [him or her] lately." A second source seconds that emotion: "[He or she] is not really getting along too well with producers right now." Source: Kristin on E!Online Edited by oncetherewasaway, Apr 18 2009, 11:03 AM.
