Grey's Anatomy | 8x19 | Support System | Review

Grey's Anatomy is one show that certainly can deliver beautiful intros, this time it showed us in a recap manner how Christina's and Owen's relationship grew and hit rocks all at the same time, it showed us how Owen's saved her life when she tripped and fell and got an icicle insider of her up until the scene where she throws the cereal bowl in his face.

In this episode Christina continued to be a mystery to me, why on earth would she want to hear the recap of Owen's one night stand ?

It reminds me of Ross and Rachel from FRIENDS, about Ross trying to explain himself and wanting to be forgiven but instead she asked him "How was it ? Was she good?" What followed meant the end for them. And I sense that Christina is looking for something that is so unforgivable so she can end all that in a blink of an eye without feeling guilty.

Shonda promised us the old Christina, the cold blooded Christina and that's not a good sign for Christina and Owen as a couple.

Aside from that, Sloan as chief ? Are you kidding ? The worst possible candidate for a chief of surgery.

Alex and April blackmailing Lexie to help the two to study for boards was precious.

Haters and hatred!

Haters - as I define them a bunch of frustrated people. Some people love their haters, I hate my haters, I'm not in that time of my life to embrace the fact that I have more haters than any average people.

But who can we classify as haters ?

"People that simply cannot be happy for another person's success. So rather than be happy they make a point of exposing a flaw in that person. Hating, the result of being a hater, is not exactly jealousy. The hater doesn't really want to be the person he or she hates, rather the hater wants to knock someone down a notch."

A simplest definition tell that a hater is "a person who expresses intense feelings of hatred or spite, when the reason for this is perceived as unreasonable or spurious."

I wouldn't mind them at all if they wouldn't shamelessly influence others' opinion, I mean how brainless and spineless do some people need to be to have their opinions formed by others ?

On the plus side, having haters is a sign that your actions and decisions are the good ones. Also, if you know how to deal with them it may be good because it will mean that you're popular and everyone is talking about you. I'm not gonna embrace that, not just yet.

Grey's Anatomy | 8x18 | The Lion Sleeps Tonight | Review

After taking a long break Grey's Anatomy is back and better than ever. The last episode ended in the old fashioned way of letting us process some things but also left us wanting more.

Christina has just learned that Owen cheated on her and apparently all that paranoia was not just an act of her imagination (and mine as well). Since last episode we were processing and refusing to believe that Owen would do something like this.

It's been a long time since we had some compelling cases in the ER and this time we have a lion, an actually lion to blame or to thank for. We had an idiot on the OR table who was left to think that he was a hero that saved the life of the lion owner, whom he tried to date. And idiotic is having a full-grown lion at your home ? How socially deprived do you need to be to raise a lion instead of a cat ?

And there was Teddy. It seemed that her grieving was far from being over, she tried a grief group but I guess it was too much for her, I didn't realize she was in so much denial, didn't know that she refused to comprehend Henry's death. And when we thought that grieving group was too much for her, now she must take care of an old man who had a heart-attack from literally bumping into the lion earlier that day. I guess the lion made more victims than we thought.

Favorite TV Shows or Best TV Shows

Up until now you've known me little, showing you the list of my favorite TV shows will help you shape the image of me a little bit closer to the true one (in case, of course, you want to).

See below a full list of shows I've watched and still watch, with details of their ratings, press and awards.

1. Grey's Anatomy - been active since 2005, now on its 8th season. The multiple award winning TV show averaged 22 million first season, on second and third season had even bigger ratings. That was about ratings. Now about the plot. It's about five interns, about their struggles to become surgeons, but also about their personal matters. No matter who you are you find yourself related to at least character. It's not that much about their professional lives as their personal lives and how manage or fail to manage what they face everyday. This show is full of tragedies, not made up but inspired on true stories, by watching and trying to understand you get immunized for similar situations in your own life. But also, you'll come to appreciate its humor. Great acting, great plot lines, great soundtracks. If you want a preview of the entire show watch this:


Also to see amazing scenes look here:

2. Desperate Housewives - active since 2004, now on its 8th and final season. You may be mislead by its title but I can assure it's not only about housewives, some of them work too :). There is comedy and drama - it's a dramedy. Filled with interesting plot lines and lots of cliffhangers. It's a show about families and how they struggle with their daily things, it's about children and different way of raising them, it's about right and wrong, and how you can make wrong right again. It's about people's mistakes, it show you the true definition of friendship, but more or less it shows you also what backstabbing means. This multiple award winning show (7 Emmys and 3 Golden Globes) teaches you valuable lesson without having go through all the bad things that happened to these characters. To watch a preview of this amazing show watch the video below.

3. FRIENDS - I've had my share of comedies but nothing compares to this one, it's truly the greatest TV comedy in the history. It ran between '94 and 2004, its finale was watched by 60 million viewers. This show it's filled with dozen of jokes per minute. It will blow you away with every single episode. I, for instance, watched it 5 times from its first episode till the last one, and I laughed as hard as I did when I watched it the first time. You'll learn on fast-track what true friendship means, it'll teach you how to stand for your friends, it'll teach you how to stay the same good friends for many years to come. It'll show you that falling in love with your best friend is possible, it'll give you comfort for the loss you have experienced and give you hope that true friendships may be around the corner.

4. House MD - a great competition for the aforementioned medical drama Grey's Anatomy, its ratings and success was not worse, sometimes better (and I am explaining it this way, people avoid feelings and run from crying scenes being to weak to face them). This show is based basically on one character - the sarcastic and deceitful Dr. Gregory House, who doesn't obey to the rules, either internal hospital rules or any other laws. People are trying to change him and make him a better man who would actually feel for his patients, despite the fact that he is only one who treats cases that no one else can, he is the genius of the diagnostics. Throughout the series you see him as a genius doctor and a drug addict (after suffering a trauma got addicted to Vicodin) who is uncertain about where this gift comes from, his awesomeness or his addiction to Vicodin, or both ? Watching this series you'll love his sarcastic sense of humor and his way of treating patients, who according to him everybody lies.

5. Suits - it's a drama on air since this year (we're still in 2011) and is about Mike Ross, a college dropout who's dreams of becoming a lawyer got ruined in some unfortunate circumstances and who makes a living taking LSATs for other students. Thankfully for his amazing memorizing skills gets hired in a law firm by Harvey Specter, one of New York City's top attorneys. Once Mike does not have a degree, he and Harvey pretend that Mike is a Harvard alumni. You'll find this series particularly interesting to watch grace to its characters chemistry, Mike's eidetic memory and law knowledge, Harvey's kicking-ass techniques and many other things. This series has been classified as a hit series of 2011 and already got nominated for its first Screen Actors Guild. Watch the promo below and be struck by the its genuine acting and performances.

If I Have a Million Dollars

Surfing the internet looking for subjects to write about, that would suit my blog I found something interesting and I chose to write about what if I had one million dollar.

We often think about this, about what if we never had financial issues every single day of our lives ?

What if we always had enough money ?

We may find out the answer at some point in our lives, or we just may never find out.

I, for instance, would buy a house in the suburbs of a big city, like Los Angeles or London., live in the suburbs and enjoy the big city from afar.

I would pay my acting classes and finally get the chance to act in TV shows such as House, Grey's Anatomy or Suits. To live that thrill every day, doing it with grace and dedication without having the feeling that is a paid job. Many actors are in the film industry just because the pay is good. For me acting is more than a job, it's a way of living the life. Believe or not, I act every day, pretending I am friends with people I actually hate, respecting even if is more of an act 'cause respect is the last thing they deserve, acting pleasantly among people who despise me and try to bring me down, but every now and then I remember a saying, if people are trying to bring you down it means you're above them.
