What we can take away from the interview is this: There is going to be a lot of drama for the couple mainly because television calls for conflict. As McKidd said, “The characters can’t be happy all the time.” However, he also admits that both he and co-star Sandra Oh hope the two will find a happy ending. “You’ve got to believe that love for love will win out in the end.” It’s nice to know that the actors are for the couple working out. At least, it is if you’re cheering for Owen and Cristina to work it out.

There’s no details as to how exactly Kim Raver’s character will mess with the relationship, but the actor teases us with, “People are hopefully going to be very, very torn and very involved and kind of sucked into it. I think it’s a very interesting story we’re telling…Stuff happens that you do not expect. Because you know when things like this happen in life, it can change your perception on a dime. And I think the intensity of that is going to be a really interesting player.”

Vague but intriguing. Lots of mystery about what will be involved in this love triangle between the three docs.

I must warn you that the music in the background is a little louder than the dialogue in some of the clips and so maybe headphones would help with discerning what’s being said. I’ll see if I can track down better quality clips. They all seem to have the same sound issue. Hope you enjoy anyway.

If you wish to remain fully in the dark about the future of the show and its characters, do look away. Otherwise, carry on.

In regards to the Teddy/Owen/Cristina (Bermuda) Triangle, she says that new doc Teddy Altman (Kim Raver) will mess with Cristina and Owen’s relationship “but not how you’d expect.” Rhimes continued, “I think everyone assumes it’s going to go one way. It’s a very different story than we’ve ever told before.”

In related news, Kevin McKidd told TV Guide, “Something happens between the three of them that’s pretty explosive. Up until now you’ve not really seen anyone draw any lines in the sand, but you start to see that this week.”

What does it all mean? Besides the obvious: Cristina does not like Teddy. So much for loving her present.

Moving on to Meredith and Derek:

Well, we know they’re not breaking up. And that they’re going to have “work-related challenges.” Aside from that, we don’t really know much more. Rhimes said, “I think a lot of what’s going on with them is watching them come into their own as doctors [and] watching what goes on between them in the hospital situation.” So, work-related challenges. Emotional highs and lows. The usual.

If you’re concerned for the Chief after the end of last week’s episode: You should be. According to Shonda Rhimes, that whole mess is going to “get a little complicated. That’s going to get more complicated than I think anybody expects.” Can we say uh-oh? Doesn’t look like it will get complicated in the surgery department though. “I really want to protray the real story and what happens when a doctor goes off the wagon and how they deal with that.”

On the plus side, if you love Loretta Divine (Mrs. Chief) good news: She’ll be back often. Hooray!

Regarding Katherine Heigl’s return and then confirmed re-departure, Shonda Rhimes says that they’ll adapt to the change and that they have no idea how long her “maternity” will last for.

Speaking of parents, Mark Sloan will be dealing with that particular storyline soon enough as his grown-up child makes an appearance. Of this particular story, Rhimes said, “That’s going to be fairly interesting. We’re going to dive very far into Mark Sloan and discover a bunch of stuff.”

So we’ve got lots of little snippets of info to digest. What do you think will happen with Cristina/Teddy/Owen. Are you enjoying that storyline or do you wish they’d put the triangle aside? A lot of you are cheering for Cristina/Jackson. Are some of you cheering for Teddy/Owen?

And what do you think of Mark having a daughter?

So the good news is that Ellen Pompeo is – as we’ve seen – back at work and ready to go. Which means that Derek and Meredith are soon to return to their rightful place as King and Queen of Seattle Grace. At least, when it comes to the focus of the show. Hooray!

The … let’s not say bad news, let’s say ‘not-so-happy’ … the not-so-happy news is that all is not going to remain Post-It Wedding paradise and Wall-Drawing dreams forever. Indeed, our favorite couple is going to be heading into a rocky time in their lives, particularly when it comes to work. Come the second half of the season, Meredith and Derek are going to have to deal with “work-oriented” relationship challenges. I imagine that will lead to arguments and arguments will lead to making up and making up will lead to on-call room happy time. If you know what I mean.

But back to some good news: No matter what you may have heard in those virtual dark alleys, MerDer is not breaking up. They are – and I’m quoting Shonda Rhimes here – “together forever.” So, drama or no drama, we can still expect a happily ever after for the couple.

The episode sounds like it will be focused mainly on the personal lives of the doctors at Seattle Grace. It should be a really interesting episode to watch.

Are you looking forward to ‘Holidaze’?

The following photos are promotional screens and do contain spoilers about the episode. So those of you allergic to such things should probably look away.

Here’s what you can expect from the episode:

Miranda will be getting a visit from a disapproving father. Mark and by extension, Lexie, will have to cope with the unexpected arrival of a woman from Mark’s past. And Papa Grey returns! Kim Raver guest stars as Dr. Teddy Altman and Frankie Faison guest stars as Bailey’s dad.

But now there’s a couple of sneak peeks released by ABC for tonight’s episode, entitled “New History.” We pick up with Cristina and Jackson – and for those of you cheering them on, this clip makes it clear that if they do end up together, it won’t be an easy ride. It seems like the writers are creating two possible outcomes for Cristina: a future with Hunt or maybe one with the new guy. Many viewers have responded positively to the idea of Cristina/Jackson. So who knows if they’re meant to be.

Oh and did I mention that Izzie’s back? Oh I did. Well, Izzie’s back! And I’m sure Alex has a lot of mixed emotions on the subject. Do you think those two are going to make it? I’m willing to bet Reed hopes they don’t.

The following post contains what some might consider to be spoilers. If you wish to know nothing about what’s coming up this season, now’s a good time to look away.

**Spoilers**

Word from Ausiello this week points to another Katherine Heigl hiatus starting early next year. This time, the reasons for her time off are personal in nature: she wishes to spend time with her new daughter. Who can fault her for that? Of course, she’s not the only new mom on the block, so I wonder how all the new moms are taking to this break? Ellen Pompeo was quick to get back to work after giving birth and I’m sure she wouldn’t mind some extra time with her daughter.

Look for Izzie to go MIA again after the holiday break.

In the meantime, the question lingers: Is she really pregnant? Ausiello wouldn’t give a yes or no answer to the question, but he did say that “ABCs promo gurus are very sneaky!” So my guess is that they cut the promo in such a way that it made us think Meredith was talking to Izzie but was in fact talking to someone else. Whether that someone else is someone important or a guest star/patient, I have no idea. Or – Izzie could be pregnant. But I’m doubting that.

In other news, if you’re looking for some news on The Chief, Ausiello reveals that he will be “falling off the wagon” at the end of tonight’s episode.

What are your thoughts on The Chief this season? And what do you think of Katherine Heigl taking another break?

Regarding Callie and Arizona, Jessica Capshaw stated in her interview that the couple is in “a nice place.” But of course, this is Grey’s Anatomy which means that nice places are never a safe place to be. The actress admits that while they’re in a “loving relationship” there will be some inevitable drama. What this drama is or how it will manifest is anyone’s guess but Shonda’s. Let’s just hope they make it.

It seems a lot of viewers have changed their mind about Cristina/Hunt and are now cheering on Cristina/Jackson. Are you still loyal to Owen or would you rather Cristina ended up with the new boy in town?

Izzie pregnant?? Is it Alex’s?? Is it even true? Recall that Shonda Rhimes stated that they didn’t do babies at Seattle Grace – was she lying to throw us off or is Izzie not really pregnant? Perhaps it’s not Izzie that Meredith is talking to? They cut to Izzie but perhaps she was talking to someone else entirely? Cristina? Lexie? Bailey? The Chief? Wait, that wouldn’t work.

Thoughts?
