Farewell to Cristina

 

 

 

If you are a Grey's Anatomy fan, tonight's show is one that you have been both dreading and anticipating all season. Tonight is the the first part of the final show with Cristina Yang and also the return of her former love, Dr. Burke. The past few episodes have been leading up to her departure from the hospital and how the return of Dr. Burke will play into her decision.

This is one network drama that I continue to watch and enjoy. It has had its ups and downs throughout the years, but in the background has always been the relationship between Meredith and Cristina. They were each others "person" from the first day they arrived as interns. It has been a friendship that has survived and one that shows how women support each other. Too often, television portrays friendship between women as immature; backstabbing and petty. This friendship was different and I think closer to what we all have with our friends. They were simply there for each other.

Tonight, I will be watching the end of an era on Grey's Anatomy. It will go on, with Meredith, Derek, and the Chief, but a vital piece will be missing for me.

Happy May Day!

  1. This is one I have not been following. But, it is always bittersweet when casts change, show end. I still miss House!

  3. We love Christina too. I kept thinking she was going to die last week when she kept saying, "let me go alone". We thought the taxi would crash or something. We'll see...I'll be curious to see what happens with Owen. The man needs to have children!!

  5. I will be watching too. Sometimes she annoyed the heck out of me but what an empty place she will leave in that show. Poor Owen.
