May 17th, 2013 9:01pm EDT
'Grey's Anatomy' Season Finale
Shonda Rhimes warned us that all bets were off for the Grey’s Anatomy season finale, appropriately titled “Perfect Storm,” that put several Grey Sloan Memorial doctors at risk. Warning, major finale spoilers ahead!

Upon learning that Ethan’s father survived his surgery, Owen decides to transport Ethan and his father to another hospital – in a helicopter during the storm. Although he advises Ethan he’s just getting moved to a “safer” hospital, Cristina is well aware that this has to do with Owen’s desire to adopt the boy. Cristina criticizes Owen for not talking to her about this. He insist...

'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: 'Readiness Is All'

Grey’s Anatomy
Here comes the sun superstorm!

During this week’s episode, the doctors of Grey Sloan Memorial began to prepare for the massive superstorm heading their way. Prior to the storm, havoc crept up on the doctors while Alex defended Jo’s honor after her domestic dispute with Peckwell, April made a life-changing decision, Arizona kissed a girl (and liked it!) and Meredith went into labor. There was also a flash mob. It seemed like the perfect plotline to storm into a season finale. (See what I did there?)

Alex takes Jo in after finding her battered and bruised on his porch. She explains that thi...

'Grey’s Anatomy' Recap: 'Do You Believe In Magic'

May 9th, 2013 1:07pm EDT
Grey's Anatomy
According to Meredith, “There’s no such thing as magic, as far as we know.” She’s clearly right after a magician’s assistant turns up in the ER after being cut in half. Yes, the patient got cut in half with a chainsaw after the group’s magic act backfires. There’s nothing magical about that.

Arizona shares a flirty, yet awkward, moment with a woman named Lauren (Hilarie Burton) after she accidentally takes her coffee from the coffee cart. After their initial encounter earlier that morning, Arizona is surprised to learn that Lauren is actually Dr. Lauren Boswell, the craniofacial specialist...

Rebecca Da Costa
Bipolar, six months pregnant and attempting to get off of her medicine. This is the struggle that plagues Bianca Wood (Rebecca Da Costa), a woman who fears her unborn child’s life is in danger by a supernatural entity, in Breaking at the Edge.

“It was a very hard role and I had no idea how hard it would be until I got there,” Da Costa explained of her lead role. “She [Bianca] stops taking her medication and she has a bipolar crisis and becomes a little schizophrenic. It was very, very tough and energy draining.”

Breaking at the Edge, directed by Predrag Antonijevic and written by Jake Ken...

'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: 'She's Killing Me'

April 5th, 2013 6:28am EDT
Grey's Anatomy
“Patients say it all the time. Tell me straight up, I just want to know what’s going on. Tell me. I can handle it.” At least that’s what Meredith thinks, but her emotions change when she gets her genome results back. As it turns out, Meredith tests positive for more than one of the genetic markers of Alzheimer’s. Meredith and Derek later discuss her mapping results, but Meredith just wants one thing – an updated will – considering Lexie is still Zola’s guardian.

Meredith later suggests appointing Cristina and one of Derek’s sisters, whomever he chooses, to be guardians of their children. D...

'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: 'Can't Fight This Feeling'

April 3rd, 2013 5:12pm EDT
Grey's Anatomy
We open to see Callie preparing for her big speech at the TED Conference. Yes, Callie is speaking at the TED Conference, even though she has a horrible fear of public speaking. But that’s before the hospital is overrun with patients when a gas tanker flips on the highway, exploding shortly after. Before the incoming patients arrive, Alex finds Jo and Jason making out, so he knocks on the window and demands she check her pager. Jo goes downstairs to see a familiar patient she treated the other night. His mother, Casey (guest star Sarah Chalke), explains that her son’s fever keeps spiking and...

The Mindy Project
On this week’s episode of The Mindy Project, we learned more about Danny Castellano through his questionable childhood friend, Stevie. Although “Danny’s Friend” primarily revolved around Danny, he wasn’t the only person getting a blast from the past. Mindy was graced with a follow up visit from Heather, portrayed by The Office’s Ellie Kemper, Josh’s manic other ex-girlfriend who caused quite a scene the last time she swung by her apartment.

Mindy spends the morning with Maggie, her college pal (who’s still in a wheelchair), when she receives a knock at the door from Heather. It turns out t...
