Just some quick thoughts on the last few episodes of both shows . . . . I’m all caught up with vacation viewings finally! A lot went down, and I’m trying to remember things to comment on actually.

I love that Derek and Meredith are happy again and have Zola. Now isn’t it about time Derek finally finishes that dang house he’s been building for years?

I hate watching everyone in Mark’s life take such a liking to his new girlfriend, mainly because we know it won’t end well. He himself told Callie and Arizona to back off a bit, he wanted to take things slow so he didn’t ruin things like he always does. But I have a feeling he’s still hung up a bit on Lexie, who is still very hung up on him.

Watching Teddy grill yang over and over again about Henry’s death was heart breaking. I was so afraid that she was never going to forgive Christina. However it seems both Teddy and Christina have directed their anger at Owen . . . .

Christina and Owen’s huge fight at the end of the last episode was explosive to say the least. And in front of all their friends too at Zola’s party. I figured the abortion wouldn’t just be swept under the rug, and Owen exploded about it and how Christina always does what Christina wants, and that this was not the life he thought he was signing up for . . . Ouch!

Over to “Private Practice,” this week’s episode was just chocked full of horror as the couple Violet met at the beginning of the season returned, with the husband having beaten the wife until she lost her unborn child. Violet invited her to recuperate at her house, which lead to the husband breaking in, knocking Violet out . . . only for her to wake up and find the wife stabbing the husband over and over . . . I think it’s time for Violet to find a new house at this point as the blood stains are never going to come out of her floors!

As I felt would happen, Charlotte and Cooper are going to become full time parents to Mason sooner than later, as his mom has a brain tumor and limited time left.

Sam and Pete were moving on and playing the field, but neither seemed to happy with the idea of Violet and Addison moving on as well. Grrrrr! What is with the men on this show? Next week, from the previews, looks to be another infuriating episode involving Pete.

Addison, with Jake’s help, is searching for a surrogate for her baby. I liked that Amelia offered to carry it, but clearly with her just out of recovery that’s not a great idea. Addison knew as much as well. I guess Jake’s helping Addison is going to lead to their inevitable romance . . . . at least he’s not Sam! I am so glad they are over, and I really hope the show doesn’t put them back together again. Have they gotten the memo that those two just don’t make a good couple?
