Home TV Grey's Anatomy Tonight on Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 8: The POTUS comes calling Derek will once again face the decision to work for the president tonight on Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 8, Risk. On the last episode of Greys Anatomy Amelia was blindsided when a fellow recovering addict came into the hospital. She was looking for information on her parents that had been in a fire. The last thing Amelia expected was to be outed in front of everyone about her past as an addict. Derek stepped in and took over Amelias surgery. When Derek refused to talk about Amelias past, Owen called an emergency meeting. After wising up, Derek did come to her defense in the meeting and said that he cant do the job any better than Amelia. Despite this, Meredith still looked pretty pissed off at him. Dr. Herman went missing most of the episode with Arizona unable to reach her. So when a patient that had a fetal surgery scheduled has an emergency, Arizona decides to deliver the baby. Luckily, shes able to save the babys life. But the mother didnt survive the surgery. Still, Herman showed up just in time to … Continue reading →

Sarah Drew Hope was a major theme on tonight's midseason finale ofGrey's Anatomy, for better or for worse. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) may have given up completely on trying to repair their marriage, and Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton) and Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) found out some devastating news about Jackson (Jesse Williams) and April's (Sarah Drew) baby. On the other end of the spectrum, Dr. Herman (Geena Davis) might have more of a chance at survival than she originally thought, and Callie (Sara Ramirez) and Arizona are making progress towards a reconciliation though not necessarily a romantic one.

Sheesh. While giving … Continue reading →

Home TV Grey's Anatomy Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 8 recap: Mind over matter Tonights winter finale is a battle of heart and mind on Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 8, Risk. Before heading into a two-month hiatus, Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 8, Risk, brought in two cases that required the help of a few friends from Glee.
