Grey's Anatomy: Shelter from the Storm Review

     Grey's Anatomy returned last night after a long winter hiatus, and I have got to say, I actually somewhat enjoyed the episode. It felt like an older episode of the show, so I was invested in the episode for pretty much the entire time.

     The episode picks up from right where we left off. The storm has caused the power in the hospital to go out and coincidentally six of our main characters are stuck in three separate elevators. Meredith and Deluca are stuck together, and I kind of like that coupling? I actually want to see them get together. Yea Deluca is like fifteen years younger than Meredith, but I have always liked his character despite him never really having a storyline of his own. Amelia, Owen, and Teddy are also stuck together to where Teddy announces that she is pregnant with Owen's baby. Amelia being Amelia of course has a mini freak out moment, and I guess I would, too. I liked that Amelia supported Owen at the end of the episode. That was nice of her, but God they have broken up 452 times now. I am kind of over them as a couple, and I really hope they just never get back together. It clearly is not meant to be. The third elevator has Bailey and one of the interns who I really do not care about. Bailey and the intern start to panic to where I thought Bailey was having an OCD attack, again. Maybe she was. Maybe she wasn't. I don't know. I think she was worried about Ben. I can't relate considering Ben left the show and joined the flop Station 19. Whatever.

     Miranda and the intern are saved by Jackson, who finally shows use of himself in this episode. (Sorry ya'll I just really hate Jackson. His character has always been pointless and whiny.) The man with Jackson, played by Will Sasso (remember him from vine?) is saving Bailey and the intern when the elevator crushes his legs to which the scene reminded me of Final Destination 2. hat was actually a bloody scene. Good for you ABC.

     There are some random surgeries that I couldn't give a crap about because I do not remember any of the patients with the exception of CeCe, who to be quite honest has stayed past her welcome. Cece receives her organs to which it seems she accepts them, but then her body begins to reject them and then she dies. It was actually a little bit sad not because she died but because of the reactions of the doctors who really admired her dating advice. Their reaction made me hurt a bit.

     Also in the episode Richard runs around the hospital and finds Betty, Owen and Amelia's "adoptive child" going through withdrawal and trying to find drugs. I really admired Richard for telling Amelia and Owen that she was using again. Richard has been amazing this season with his damaging the bar scene that occurred before the mid-season finale. He is an incredible actor. I would probably consider him the heart of the show now. Amelia seems to send Betty off the rehab which I am here for because I also think she has stayed past her welcome on the show.

     I really liked the end scene of Meredith dissing her two admirers. I actually do not mind these two guys. They are characters I give a shit about, so that is refreshing. It will interesting to see who she chooses between them or if she chooses any at all.

     I am looking forward to the rest of the season. I really want to know Richard's reaction to finding out that Catherine has cancer, and I am interested in the new storylines that are coming up. The first half of the season was easily one of the worst viewings of the show I have ever seen, but it seems the point has shifted, and we may have some intriguing storylines come into play.
