In 30 Rock Grey's Anatomy Special Events The Office
Single tear.
Tonight marks the final episode of the O.C. I will always remember this show fondly, even though I haven't watched it in years, for the summer when I was interning and didn't have cable or any friends and there was absolutely nothing new on TV ever, and then — miraculously — this show suddenly appeared for the first time, and it was silly and melodramatic but Seth Cohen was awesome and suddenly everything was okay again. Thanks, O.C.
Grey's Anatomy wraps up its cliffhanger. Look, I'd love to be proved wrong, because that would certainly be a bold choice, but they're not going to kill their narrator. (I don't know, I'm no expert. I still haven't watched last week's episode.)
Oh, the dramedy. Jan and Michael take it public on The Office. Their relationship makes me so anxious. The strange thing is, by now I feel like I empathize with Michael so much I'm mostly uncomfortable on his behalf, not Jan's — I don't want him to screw up his own life, but I know he just can't help it. I mean, Michael and Pam's hug last week? Did anyone not cry?
30 Rock: Hijinks ensue.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming: Nothing can beat the woman with a baby in her abdomen. Nothing. Not even tonight's Oprah's Oscar special, which as far as I can tell does not really include Oprah. Julia Roberts talks to George Clooney, Nicole Kidman chats with Russell Crowe, and Jamie Foxx gabs with Sidney Poitier.

Michael and Pam’s hug last week? Did anyone not cry?
And then start screaming because of the candy bar thing? No, no one did not.
Also, if Meredith Grey were a ghost I think the show would be immeasurably improved. Maybe Patrick Dempsey would bitchslap Katherine Heigl for his fair share of the whiny, self-indulgent grief.

What if Meredith gets reanimated as some sort of zombie? And she has an insatiable thirst for self-absorbed brains. She would eat like a Queen Zombie and finally gain a little weight. Best of all, nobody would notice anyone else was eaten until it was their turn.
Or, since dead narrators have so been done, they could replace Meredith with her mom and keep the name of the show relevant. She’d be really annoyed and wouldn’t know why she should care about any of the people on the show. Just like me.

Grey’s Anatomy of the Dead would be AWESOME.
