I’m so glad Grey’s Anatomy is back into the swing of things this season. Even the music is better, wouldn’t you agree?

I read…somewhere…might have been Ask Ausiello, that two people who we wouldn’t have thought would hook up would, actually, hook up. So last night, CU and I were trying to pair everyone up. Hahn and Syph Nurse? Chief Webber and Callie? McDreamy and Webber? After all, one is already fixing breakfast for the other. Oh wait, what about Pretty and Prettier? Swear to God, that was one of the best scenes of the night, right up there with the events surrounding, “Did you only shave one of your legs?”

Our biggest unanswered question…are there really only three attendings at Seattle Grace? From Hahn’s tirade last night, that’s what you’d think. FYI for those of you getting ready to visit the beautiful Emerald City anytime soon…unless your ailments are of a neurological, cardiothoracic or…plasticky nature, you might want to take your business to Mercy West. “We used to have an ob/gyn attending. As a matter of fact, she was a world-class neonatal surgeon…but she left.” I mean for criminy’s sake, Chicago County General has three attendings just for the ER, including one who is just working until December to make enough money for a surf trip.

Guest-star props for bringing Roy from The Office in for a storyline which, shucky darn, wound up being more about Meredith than it was about him. The moral of the story? When you experience a near-death experience, whatever you feel immediately following the experience (well, other than the immeasurable pain) you need to share with people. Because, if you don’t, your resident doctor will come in and lecture you about her problems. “We used to have a really promising resident. As a matter of fact, she was at the top of her program, but she had abandonment issues…and drowned herself. Sad, really. She’d even recently shaved her legs.”

And…Alex. Oh, Alex. It would have been so much better had Eva walked in on you and Mere Lite. Cad. AND…Georgie…Izzie. I am so glad they didn’t have sex, because the words “hot sex” emanating from Izzie’s mouth in reference to copulating with George gave me the willies for an hour. Based on next week’s previews, I am really hoping…reallyhoping…that sex will continue to not happen and their relationship will disappear, much like the other specialty practices at Seattle Grace. “We used to have a couple of residents hooking up. As a matter of fact, they were world-class morons, but it didn’t work out.”

In other news, a big “BOOYAH” and an enthusiastic point of the index finger to the TV screen last night, when Jeff tossed Jaime’s fauxmmunity plaque into the fire on Survivor. This was one of those few rare times when the setup actually delivered. A lot of times, the editors want you to think something totally embarrassing will happen at Tribal Council, and then nothing does. Last night though…fantastic.
