Callie Torres

I had to start with perhaps the most beloved LGBTQ+ character in Grey's Anatomy history. Sara Ramirez broke new ground in television for portraying Callie as a strong bi woman, one who is unapologetic about her attraction to both men and women. While they portraye

    Tiresome animal rights sub plot.

    LOL. Save the animals so they can die as god intended. As bacon or food for other animals. Why do people envision animals as humanoid? So silly. So underdeveloped. They don't understand that the little buggers are not as significant as we are. Seriously. The sympathy is quixotic. This type of silliness is rife in society on all sides. This silly religious and 'spiritual' claptrap. The arguments are truncated and juvenile. It must be thus because they try so hard to tug at the ignorance of emotion. Its always trite when a sh

    Missed Opportunity

    For the scene(s) where Dr. Yang is singing "Like a Virgin", how did they not think to use Weird Al's "Like a Surgeon" instead? I indicate, she's literally a struggling surgeon singing the song while cutting into a cadaver, it would have fit perfectly and been hilarious.

    Best episode of season 4

    This is by far the optimal episode of season 4. Christina's and Meredith's hurt felt real and the patients featu

    After the long wait, the Grey’s Anatomy 2-hour finale premiered not too extended ago and ended with a kiss that will be replaying over and over in my head until the 5th season begins.

    The foreshadowing of Dr. Callie Torrez (played by Sara Ramirez) and Dr. Erica Hahn’s relationship entity more that “just friends” has been so intense for the past couple of episodes. From Callie’s noticeable uneasiness when Hahn (played by Brooke Smith) is around to Hahn kissing Callie “for show” to get McSteamy all hot and bothered, the tension has been building up. Obviously these brief steps toward an intimate relationship led up to the finale, where in the last scene Callie plants one of the most passionate kisses I have seen on primetime television since… well since forever!

    Many conservatives have been complaining that “Grey’s” has a social agenda these days. In fact, when Ramirez appeared on The View, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, a well-known conservative, actually asked her if her nature on the show was “going to switch teams and go for the lady.” Ramirez responded:
