I haven't watched it yet! It's DVRd so I'll watch it sometime next week when I get home. It's the first week and I'm alreayd behind, I'm going to suck at these threads haha
What did you think of the episode overall? I agree Meredith's hair looked really cute. It makes her look younger, too. As for the episode, I thought it was decent. There were a few things that bugged me though. I thought the part with Maggie hitting the mother was a little unbelievable -- like, even if the parents forgave her, there would be major repercussions. I also had a hard time believing that Arizona would need a roommate. I hate the Jackson/April thing. Well, mainly the April thing.
wanderingenough I did find Maggie hitting that mother totally ridiculous, as well as the Arizona needing a roommate thing. She said that people often can't pay her fees so she does it for free, but doesn't she like, get a salary from the hospital?! Wtf, that probably bothered me the most. And april's entire storyline is annoying, and just so out of character for her. BUT, in general I really liked the episode. It had a compelling patient story, the doctors all interacted with each other and acted like they were friends, and it had a lighter, less melodramatic tone overall. I have high hopes for the rest of the season!
I loved when Maggie punched the mother, but I did feel it was VERY out of character for her. I just dislike Arizona. I've never liked her but she just annoys me in everything she does. Why couldn't she be a character to LEAVE? I still love Jackson, but I'm sick of April's drama. I didn't enjoy the way they took her character. I liked her much more in previous seasons.
I loved how the doctors interacted with each other. They all seemed to be friends and help each other out, I liked this change. Overall I'm excited for the season, I hope it stays at about the level of drama it is now!

wanderingenough I pretty much agree with all of that. A doctor hitting someone would definitely get them fired or at least have some serious consequences. I also really hate that Jackson and April are having issues. I hope it gets worked out. I'm happy about Bailey but I'm not sure I liked that it took a SO to talk her into it.
Was anyone else really bothered by the music? It was bugging me the whole time, lol.

I finally watched it!
Overall I liked the episode.
1. Like Meredith's new hair 2. Like that April wasn't really in the episode, I find her incredibly annoying 2a. So over the Jackson/April storyline. Clearly things aren't working, just move on 3. I'm glad Bailey didn't give up - I feel they've made her so soft over the last few years, I want to see fiesty Bailey again (which looking at the previews, it looks like that may be next week....I just hope they don't make her too annoying as chief)
