Chyler Leigh Cast on Grey’s Anatomy
Chyler Leigh has been cast on Grey’s Anatomy very possibly for the purpose of causing problems for Meredith and McDreamy. Because they don’t have enough problems already, what with McDreamy’s chance at Chief hanging on the balance of his relationship with Mer. I guess there wasn’t enough drama at Seattle Grace.
Here’s what E! Online’s Kristin has to say:
Nikki in Baltimore: Please tell me Derek doesn’t cheat on Meredith with the barwhore!
I wish that I could! The truth is, I honestly don’t know whether McDreamy and McBarwhore will do the McNasty. However, I am very concerned after picking up this bit of scoop: Sources close to Grey’s Anatomy tell me that Chyler Leigh—the Reunion star who plays the bar hussy we saw in last week’s promo—has been offered a multiple-episode arc for next season. Booo! I mean, I love Chyler, but I sure hope her storyline has something to do with Cristina or Burke or Bailey or Callie or Izzie or—you get the idea—and not her sinking her slutty little paws into Mer’s man.
Oy.
Oh well. If they could survive the return of Addison, and McSteamy and two near-death experiences … they can survive a McBarwhore.
I do love Chyler Leigh, though. She’s great.

it could be anybody, and it is just pure speculation because of the promos that it is merder that she stirs up trouble for, it could be anybody, maybe she is being brought in to keep poor mark company.

Just a question! Derek said that he was thinking of maybe breaking up with Mer because when he first came to Seattle it was to become the chief and nothing else. He said that Mer was «in the way» of him becoming chief. Ok, we still have to wait and see, but if the Bar girl stays for a dozen episodes…that means she’ll have something to do with Derek. If Mer is in his way to become chief, wont this bar girl be in his way too? Another girl is useless in the plot if we already know that Derek is thinking of leaving Mer, no? I feel like it doesn’t make any sense and it’s just soap opera drama. I wait for the day when we’ll hear in a dramatic flourish: Meredith…I am your father (coming from Webber of course)

I agree, couldn’t she be Meredith’s sister though? She was supposed to start her internship somewhere, why not at Seattle Grace?

One of the reasons I watch Grey’s is because fo Derek and Meridith. I havent’ watched to two weeks because I don’t like where the story is going. I think their relationship is what makes Grey’s. So I’m looking for another “best show” to watch. My girlfriends feel the same way.

I have to agree after watching last nights episode …Testing 123 I think that the bar girl is Merideths sister. She says to Derrek that she had a bad day (her moms funeral) and she looks a lot like Meridiths other sister. This storyline is not going where I would like it to go…if he leaves her now when she has so much going on in her life, I don’t know if they will ever get back together. (Her mom dies, she almost drowns, her step-mom dies and her father slaps her in the face) thats a big list. I think Derrek is being a jerk right now. Out goes McDreamy enter McSteamy. I can so see that storyline unfolding, especially when Addison leaves for L.A…..Shonda why do you do these things:(

OF course she’s the younger sister..”i had a bad day and today I get to be forward “…hmm sounds like a McIdiot (meredith) quote. And the reason for the bad day ?? I guess her FATHERS FUNERAL would count !!!!

Good grief! Shonda’s lost her mind. The spin off was ghastly. Those characters had as much appeal as cold mashed potatoes. Tim Daly has no sex appeal whatever. Leave Addison at Seattle Grace. I guess this girl in the bar will turn out to be Lexie, Meredith’s half sister. Derek is having a bad time because once again, Richard has thrown him a curve, telling him he won’t support Derek for chief because of Derek’s relationship with Meredith. That, and the fact that Meredith won’t let him in has gotten him worried. But Derek is the love of her life and ditto for him. These two belong together. Instead of having Derek stray and putting Meredith through tons more anguish, why not explore their relationship and show Meredith learning to trust. If you make McDreamy a villian for even a little while, you will ruin Grey’s Anatomy. You need to understand that while all the characters are interesting, the feelings between McDreamy and Mer are what makes this show. Shonda, didn’t you notice that while you were writing the spin-off and giving the Grey’s fan reruns, Grey’s failed to even make the top 20! Fans want Derek and Meredit together; we want Addison at Seattle working things out with McSteamy; we don’t much care if Christina and Burke marry, but we want them both on the show; we think the Izzie/George hook up is almost unbelievable (Izzie needs to grow up); we don’t want the Chief to retire; we don’t care about Adele (she’s so whiny Richard should have left her years ago) and we just want Grey’s to continue. This show and these characters are intriguing enough without throwing in all this extra angst. Shonda, listen up.

Isn’t McBarchick Mer’s sister?
Shirleymonacokabrich
May 13, 2007 at 12:15 pm
Yes, she is Lexie Grey, a med student at Harvard, obviously here for her mother’s funeral. And obviously, out to do no good for Meredith. She set eyes on McDreamy and while it is believable that she fell for him in that one second, I think she knows he belongs with Meredith, believes her manic father that Meredith “killed” Susan, and is out for revenge. We’ll see.

Meredith isn’t one of my favorite characters on the show. It’s not that i dislike her. She is just a bit too whiny, self-centered and can be cold as well as standoffish towards Derek. Derek has tried over the last couple of weeks to comfort her she is the one who pushes him away or puts up walls. I myself think Derek needs to go at it solo for along while. I don’t want Derek hooking up with Meredith sisters (please Grey’s writers don’t go there). Meredith on the other hand needs to get some Big time therapy and go solo as well till she gets hrerself together.
By the way hats off to Ellen (Meredith ) on the her fantastic acting performance on this past show. She had my eyes tearing up.
I also want to add it would be so foolish to stop watching Grey’s just because Meredith and Derek or Christina and Burke relationship don’t work out.
The show is filled with such a variety of delicious chacters (Bailey, Richard, Mark, George, Addison, as well as the 4 above) and storylines that make the show such a joy to watch. Not to mention the patients that come to Seattle Grace .

When Mer’s father came drunk to tell her that he didnt want her at the funeral, there was a young woman behind him who had a sorry look on her face. Does anyone knows how many sister does Mer have? Maybe that woman was the intern sister… Or maybe not, I dont think they would have make one of her sister an Intern for nothing, they’re bound to use her… Another relative of Meredith who has potential to be harmfull of Meredith…how surprising. :(

This is nuts, i mean they cant just let merder break up!!! right?? they said that barwhore would only be there for a “couple” of episodes, so that must mean der will break it off with the barwhore soon. But then poor mer might be broke beyond repair. shonda please have some crazy twist here because the future is looking a little well Grey!

I’m all for shaking things up! Meredith is so pathetic, she needs to get herself together! Bring on the barwhore…Derek could use someone a little less complicated!

May 16, 2007 at 5:28 am
Yeah and the writers needs to beat down on someone else a bit, otherwise Mer will throw herself back into the water.
Mc dreamylover, No I haven’t heard anything aout Washingtown getting fired…

May 16, 2007 at 5:33 am
In response to Lillimayhem…the girl behind Meredith’s dad when he told her not to come to the funeral was the sister from last season that was in the hospital having a baby, you know, when we first were introduced to Mer’s father and Susan. The idea that barchick is another sister is good. I think she has two, one that had the baby and the other was always away at med school. And, Derrick probably doesn’t know (yet) it’s Mer’s sister. I don’t think he’d go there if he knew she was.
Candy
May 16, 2007 at 5:46 am
Although I think Meredith can be annoying I have to say I am on her side in this. She is going through a tough time- her mom died after saying awful things to her, she started getting close to her Dad’s wife and then SHE died, and then her father hit her in the face and blamed her for it. Derek wants to be there for her but only on his terms. He is focused on his own feelings rather than hers- she isn’t coming to him the way he thinks she should so his ego is bruised. The last thing she needs now is him to cheat and/or dump her. He needs to give her some time to absorb all this.

I don’t like the relationship that Izzie and George has, there is no chemistry between them, they were betten when they we just friends.
Callie doesn’t deserve being play like that.
Lilimayhem
May 16, 2007 at 10:22 am
Thank you Sara…I had forgotten about the one who was pregnant. I guess I’m hoping they wont be using another relative of Meredith as a mean of creating drama. But maybe the bar girl will be pushing Derek away…I wouldn’t like it if she proved to be a mean bit?&, we’ve seen enough of bad relatives.
But…I just thought about it…if my mother had just died, I wouldn’t be in a bar hitting on a guy…
Hannah
May 17, 2007 at 7:51 am
Someone needs to remind Shonda and her co-writers that George is a listy hetero in the show, and there’s no way that he’d consider dumping Callie for the whiny, funny-toothed Izzie with whom, as someone said, there seems to be no chemistry. Can’t wait to see how they tie that one up.
And what about Webber’s pregnant wife bleeding on the bathroom floor? doesn’t anybody vcare about her? :)
I love Dempsey!
May 17, 2007 at 6:15 pm
I’m getting so nervous for tonights episode it’s not even funny! SERIOUSLY!
Gosh I hope she’s not Mer’s sister.
Crissy
May 17, 2007 at 7:02 pm
Ok..disappointed in this season’s finale. Last season’s finale was much better!
I love DerMer! They are the whole reason I got hooked on the show. I do have to say that this season, the “magic” in DerMer’s relationship has fizzled. I was really wanting to see that “spark” on screen, that those two had in season one. I wish Shondra would rekindle this “spark” next Fall.
Next, this bar whore has got to go. Obviously this think barwhore will enter as Mer.’s little sister, cause some drama for Mer. (who doesn’t?) and then she should be gone. I she looks like she is barely over 18. I would be sick to the point of not wanting to watch this show if her and Derek hook up!!! It will be like McDreamy screwing someone’s little sis - gross & inappropiate. Meredith has been through a lot. If McDreamy really loves her he needs to understand and be supportive.
Izzie and George? Their relationship is going in a weird direction.
Torres character is REALLY getting on my nerves. I was ok with the character “Callie Torres” last season, but I do not like her as “George’s wife.” this season.
Burk and Christina ? They were my second fav. couple. Now that has dissolved?
Ava/Rebecca with Alex? They seem more like “best friends” I do not feel the romantic chemistry with them. I do LOVE Rebecca/Ava, as a charcter- Would like to see more of her!
Addison - I have come to like her character. May watch her spin-off series next Fall and stop watching “Grey’s” if Burk is gone, Bar Whore sleeps with Derek, George and Callie stay married, etc. I dislike where these plots are going.
Oh.. I think Adele and Chief will get back together and adopt one of those babies from that young girl who just gave birth to twins! That may be the one reason to keep watching.

hah,
mcidiot..
im kinda glad that there sisters,
and is Mer & Mcdreamy officially off?
Hmm
May 17, 2007 at 7:29 pm
The chick from Not Another Teen Movie (Chyler) is HOT!
more hmmmm...
May 17, 2007 at 10:13 pm
The chick is a great idea. Meredith needs to settle down emotionally, so let her focus on other things for a while. Why does this show need to be about love, romance amongst themselves? Chyler is HOT — but I think Derek will try and figure some other stuff out first too. He’s put it all out there and it’s up to Meredith to say if she’s ready to jump in with both feet. It would appear that the last moments of the finale leads you to believe this is not the case.
Cate
May 18, 2007 at 4:20 am
Okay did anyone else figure out that the time line for the slutty sister makes no sense, how can she be entereing her internship if when mer’s Dad left Mer was five that would make her sister at least five years younger than Mer, not one year younger?! This is getting a little rediculous… I agree with Crissy if Der and her hook up it will be twisted and I might stop watching. As much as I love the ensemble cast, it is Mer/Der that keeps my love hopes high and leaves me wanting more!? This season finale was extremly dissappointing and I hope Shonda reads these comments and gets the hint!!!!!!

Lexie offers to buy McDreamy a drink and SHE is a barwhore? I do believe it was Meredith who picked him up and slept with him (in a drunken stupor) on episode one, and went on to sleep with George, McVet and how many other guys? Seems Lexie is the good sister.
Mer is the not so pretty one and she is the flawed one. McDreamy deserves better. They need to expand the cast since they have all already slept with everyone.

I think the George/Izzy/Callie triangle started out ok, then went too far. I don’t like that they make it seem ok that Izzy is trying to split up a marriage. Yes, George married Callie quickly and not thinking and was too emotionally messed up from his Dad dying, but I like Callie. She is funny and right on and if someone was trying to steal your husband, how would you act? I think Izzy and Callie are both going to be prego with George’s baby! ha! I feel bad for Dr. Bailey, I really thought that she was going to be passed over for Chief Resident and be disappointed, but then be surprised and appointed to Chief of Staff. I love Dr. Bailey. I feel bad for her. I actually had a little heartache for her. Dr Torres as Chief Resident, what?!

too god damn convenient that mcbarwhore just so happens to be meredith’s sister. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE SHONDA?!?!?!?!?!!? Too soapy season finale, should’ve just left things open w/ mer and der, not bring out some whore who’ll ruin the show.
was SOOOO disappointed by this turn of events.
i hate that barwhore.
and what is it with bailey NOT getting the chief resident???? HEL-LOOOOO have you met the natzi?? SHE IS ACE!
really have to reconsider wether to watch season 4.

I love what I already see in Chyler Leigh’s character. She’s forward and strong. McDreamy needs that in his life, and hopefully she’s in the show for a while!

May 18, 2007 at 6:56 pm
What the heck?!? SO I’m confused- was Cristina happy that things were over or just hysterically sad? I also predict a throw-down in the sanctuary b/n Izzy and Callie. She needs to leave George alone, she’s driving me crazy!
Aubrey
May 19, 2007 at 5:39 pm
Are you kidding me with Chyler Leigh being cast as an intern? I think she is like 25.. She was born April 1982 *according to imdb.com*–but she looks barely 18. She looks ridiculous as an intern!
I hope they get rid of her ASAP! She is annoying… and I am one of the few non-fans of Meredith and Derek.. I was all for them the first season but I think Shonda got them together WAY too soon—she should have let that yearning and want-but-can’t-have linger for awhile before putting them together.
They have ZERO chemistry now.. They are BORING. IT doesn’t even seem they like each other.. but I agree..
He DEFINITELY does NOT need to hook up with her sister, Lexi Grey–that would be BAD
Mandy
May 19, 2007 at 8:08 pm
OMG!!! I cant believe Bailey didnt get chief resident!!! What in the HELL was Sonda thinking? Hmmmm…or just maybe that will be an out for George so he can nove on with a good life with Izzie instead of that crazy whench he is married to. What is she thinking wanting to have a babt…knowing that her husband is at least fond of another woman…..really I think she knows he loves Izzie more than he could possibly ever love her. To whomever asked how many sisters did Mer have…the answer is two….the other one had a baby in the episode that she saw Thatcher and met Susan for the first time in the hospital. Lexie should go somewhere though…..she seems to be devious and skanky….even though she didnt sleep with Derek as Meridith did. The look on her face when she asked him to buy a drink…she was being a sneaky little BRAT!! I pray to GOD that Shonda fixes this mess….SOON!!!!

little ho mcbarwhore looks like some1 who might intentionally get preggers to snatch derek from meredith,(who “is responsible for BH’s mom’s death–atleast in their minds.) and let me just ask, HOW COME tha little slut was in a BAR after mom’s funeral??? How skanky can one get??? JESUS!!
let’s hope shonda, the goddess of tv, gets our show back on track.
plus, let’s hope addie will visit seattle grace every once in a while, to get derek not to hurt mer. She told der not to hurt mer again AND she had it right!!!
I Luv McDreamy!!!
Jun 3, 2007 at 10:46 pm
ok to first of all this McBarwhore does not need to come on the show i dont like her, because if she messes up the relationship that already has problems between meredith and McDreamy i’m going to be pissed, because everyone knows that merder belongs together even though they have probelms. Meredith has gone through a lot of stuff but that doesnt give her the right to treat derek like the way she has and i will admit that. but i dont have to state the obvious that meredith doesnt want derek anymore because of the way she has been treating him, like in the season finale derek told meredith that he loves her and if she doesnt feel the same way he does to just take him out of his misery, but that still doesnt give that McBarwhore the right to get up on merediths man because if they break up they hopeully wil get back together, because she loves him truely she just doesnt know how to express it. Now as for christina and burke thats over! I was soo upset that burke let christina and how he did it! It is offical burke is leaving the show! Sources say that he has been looking for a job that will be taking place of the new season of greys anatomy so he gone. As for callie, george, and izzie i think george should leave callie and try out izzie, and if callie thinks that having a baby will make there relationship stronger she is so WRONG!!! Speaking of callie, how in the hell does SHE get cheif resident everyone know baily was made for that postion her name is written all over it! But if you really think about it they been talking about someone leaving the show for sure and addison is leaving for sure because she is going to be having a new show in place of LA, so maybe burke may not be leaving actually maybe its just for something else or maybe they will have more than 1 person leaving the show. I thought George was going to leave though because he failed his intern exam and he said he cant take his intern year over again so the only other option there is, is for him to do something else or leave the show, but he couldnt leave the show because he is married to callie and callie is now chief resident so he woud probably come on the show here and there, i dont know i have no idea what they are going to do im just make predictions from what i already know. And oh yea dat McBarwhore couldnt be merediths sister she is NOT her because they already showed all her sister! One is the pregnant girl that was i the show a couple times and the other was introduced to us in the season finale if you remember, there was all the new interns in the locker room and she introduced herself to george, this was after george found out he doesnt want to repeat his intern year. So the McBarwhore is just some new girl that no one likes that we all hopes doesnt hook up with derek plus she is too young she needs to go! As for cheif, since derek gave the job back to the cheif i think he is not going to keep the job because he is back with adele and the reason she wanted out of the marriage was because of his job and how he was never home and she didnt like it. So in return he will probably give it back to derek and he will take it. Alex and rebecca/ava i dont know about them they seem like more friend material, although i do love her character please keep her around i love her personality, she’s very loveable. Last but not least Mark nothing going on with him i wanted him and addison to hook up but it seems she is going to LA so i think HE should hook up with the McBarwhore! If that happens Shandra i would love you! Thats all i got to say for now! Cant wait till season 4, but for now season 3 NEEDS to come out on dvd already cuz i alredy have season 1 and 2 and love it! Till then i’ll be waiting! = )

OK the spinoff put me to sleep, even Tae Diggs couldn’t keep me from nodding. I don’t see that show going anywhere. I lke merder but honestly both of them are needy and irritating, however they do make the show. Calli is fat and uninteresting right now, she needs to do something to put little poor Izzy in her place and begging George to knock her up aint the answer. I will miss Burke although he and Christina needed to break up because they’re relationship was a little too twisted for me. I did enjoy looking at him every week. Fifty year old Adelle getting pregnant by Richard after all these years, after having an affair so to speak then coming to his hospital to bleed all over the place. “COME ON people let’s do better.

First, Der is questionning himself about the relationship with Mer. He made distance with her. She ask him to not hung up on her. And then, it’s her who made distance with him. What’s going on ? There is no sense to this story. I love you merder but you better fix your story next season or i will hung up !

Sep 20, 2007 at 11:03 am
im just wondering how “lexie” is just one years behind Mer? If Meridiths dad finally left her mom when she was like what 7 i think, shouldn’t lexie be much younger than her and not even close to the same stop as her in their careers?
tricia
Sep 24, 2007 at 3:25 pm
I think that right there is the SPIN… the fact that MER & LEXI are SO CLOSE in age… apparently their father was bedding both their mothers at or around the same timeframe…. hmmm?
