grey matters

Just a reminder for anyone with an automatic television-recording device: tonight's presidential address could conceivably fuck with all sorts of network sweeps programming, most notably 24 and the two-hour Grey's Anatomy finale. Adjust your DVR accordingly.

By the way, if anyone else is, like me, a slightly self-hating Grey's Anatomy addict, I cannot stress enough how important it is to avoid reading the comments on the Grey's Anatomy writers' blog.

A representative but relatively benign sample:

AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!OMG, i'm freaking out!!!! I seriously can't wait for tomm!!!!!

all i have to say about last night's episode is: OMG!!!!! SERIOUSLY! i can't wait til tonight! i would gladly miss two and half men any day for my grey's!!!

Oh my gawd! I can't wait until 2morrow! Great show! i love it!

OH MY GOD!! OH MY GOD!! OH MY GOD!!

Because the only thing worse than writing comments like this is identifying with comments like this - and possessing the necessary self-awareness to recognize that you're a total loser for doing so. (More)
