Season 3 Finale: Extremely Good
the_rent_god23 May 2007
Warning: Spoilers
The season 3 finale of "Grey's Anatomy" was done perfectly well with the best acting in it. The storyline was well thought out by the best, Shonda Rimes, which involved (SPOILERS!!!) Burke leaving Cristina, only minutes before she walked down the aisle. Cristina has a teeny-tiny freak-out when she found out that she washed off the vows on her had by mistake. But she was ready when Burke came in and basically told her that this wedding has turned her into something that she is not. He didn't want his wedding to be a mistake. When we see Cristina in her apartment alone in her wedding dress (by the way, which looked great!) she tells Meredith that he was gone. She said, "I'm free... damn it. Damn it. Damn it!" Sandra Oh did such a fabulous job on her part. She will definitely take home a Emmy this year just for that scene only. It surpassed the season 2 finale, because it involved ALL the characters this time. Everyone had there own set of problems just like people in real life. I was blown away by this show. It has redeemed itself.

The feeling of freedom.

When I watched that episode I was going through a situation where I couldn't get off an abusive relationship. But I did it. And I remember watching the moment Christina says "I'm free". It was such an emotional moment for me, definitely my favourite episode of the whole series. And nothing will change that.

Bye bye Burke
IngridNO-6799716 May 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I liked the conversations Richard are having with each attending about the appointing of the new chief, one by one. Keeps it exciting.

I think this episode is really great! Every person, every story has something different going on. What I don't like is Derek's attitude. And the fact that he really is trying to pull away from Meredith. It's not believable, it's just for the writers and the show, and it's not true to his character. The things he's saying are not making a lot of sense.

But except from this, it's great. Alex almost telling Rebecca how he feels. Adele and Richard reuniting. The whole thing with Christina and mama. Many exciting twists and turns.

The music at the end is really beatiful, when Cristina is standing in the dress in their livingroom. That scene is amazing and strong, and incredibly touching.

A great season finale!

We really are this dysfunctional

At this point the emotionally absent Meredith has her at risk of loosing Derek. Almost 2 decades ago I married the most amazing women I've ever met in my life & I was her. Eventually she left because I never found the strength to be open, I lost "the one" because I was weak. In real life Derek would have kissed her when Lexie made a pass at him.

I'm glad Burke walked away.

****I'm up there waiting for you to come down the aisle and I know you don't want to come. I know you don't want to come, but you'll come anyway because you love me. And if I loved you, if I loved *you*, not the woman I am trying to make you be; not the woman that I hope you'll become; but you, if I did, I wouldn't be up there waiting for you. I would be letting you go.****

Smartest thing he could have done. Burke was literally the only non-insane main character, maybe Derek too, on the show.

Shoot the Callie/George/Isobel triangle into the sun, the chemistry is nonexistent between any of them. The forced drama between Meredith and Derek is getting incredibly old. Also, over Alex, his storyline is complete repetition. Meet girl, antagonize girl, like girl, treat girl like garbage. Repeat. Literally 5-6 times over three seasons, over and over again.

Forced Melodrama
irishboy14122 July 2019
This episode has the most convoluted and melodramatic ending I've seen in a long time....

George is still a boring A-hole who can't decide between anything. Katherine Heigl's character undid what she did several episodes ago for the sake of more drama.

Meredith and Shepard are fighting for the sake of drama and to have another relationship issue to bring people back for the next season. Peter lets Ava go, then predictably regrets it like every single romantic comedy ever...

And OH MY GOD the whole Burke/Yang thing was B.S. and flies in the face of who they are and what they wanted at the start of the episode, it all feels so forced and stupid.

The theme of this episode is Unnecessary drama, it's so boring and transparent.
