Ok i love grey's anatomy but im looking at my tivo and it isnt saying the episode is showing?

[Jen in Pittsburgh]

Hey Shonda,

Just wanted to say thanks from a huge fan! I am not only a big grey's anatomy fan, but a Pittsburgh Steeler fan as well(being from pitsburgh and all) Amidst the chaos in Pittsburgh, I was unable to watch the show.
It was like you were reading my mind with the whole tivo fiasco! I sat down today, watched the first 30 minutes, then spent the next 30 minutes angry and screaming at my tivo for not doing its job. I've only seen half of this one, but am on the edge of my seat for the the rest of part one and next week. Thanks for the encore showing for us who missed it! Love the show, thanks for all your hard work, and can't wait til next week!

I also wanted to say thanks for posting these blogs. It really shows how appreciative and gracious you are about the show. I love reading you and the writing staff's thoughtful insights. I can't say enough great things about your show. Looking forward to see with what you've come up with next!

[Heather]

I already saw the whole episode, and I don't have Tivo, but I am SOOOOO EXCITED to see the show again! Thank you! I'm a busy college student and this is the only TV show I watch! Thanks for making it more exciting every episode!

[LaurieNY]

GA is such a sweet weekly treat and it's wonderful to get a second dose this week. Especially since it is the mega episode. I'm the mother of 3 young ones (2, 4, & 5) and this is the only show I have to watch and really, really look forward to. My former career before homemaking was in biochemical engineering so I love the med/tech stuff in the show but the real draw is McDreamy - my fav. Thank you for a show that always delivers and is always worth watching.

[Jeanine]

Thanks so much, I missed it because I had it set for 10 and I got repeat of desperate housewives instead. I was so bumbed out. I can't wait to watch it.

[David Thomas]

Hey Shonda and Co.!

Wow. Sunday's episode was simply amazing. I was literally on the edge of my seat screaming at the TV! My mom kept asking me was everything okay! Lol

You guys are great. I know it's a group effort; from you guys, the production team, the cast etc., but you need to know how much we all appreciate it.

The show and your writing is pure inspiration. I love Cristina Yang....There I said it. Hey, I like a challenge! *picks up sign* Fair hours, Fair Wages!

[Judie]

Shonda,

See this is why we CAN'T hate you, or NOT watch Grey's, or NOT love everything about and everyone involved in this show, no matter what happens. The things you do to keep us happy!
I feel like "...Oceans of love waves are washing me, all over, all over. I HOPE THIS WILL NEVER BE ALL OVER."

Baylink: see if you can guess the artist for those lines!

I watched Sunday night, taped it and have watched it twice since then, and will watch it again on Thursday. Can't Help Myself!

I already posted, but I'll
write it again: You can exhale now Shonda, and enjoy this moment in time. I rejoice with you in the success of this show.

[Ski]

i saw it superbowl sunday already but i'm just soooo happy right now. i'm sooo happy right now. i'm soooo happy right now.

[laura]

THANK YOU!!! like, times infinity, thank you so much. i was seriously crying when i realised i missed it.

yup, that's right. . . i'm lame. but still: thank you!

[Beth, Annie and Kathy]

My two sisters and I on the West Coast- who did not watch the Superbowl- have been collectively pissed about not planning accordingly with our Tivos. I'm sure you heard the groans. Now I'm sure you've heard our cheers about this Thursday night. We'll be there. Thank you and the powers that be for thinking about us fans.

[Diana]

How can one turn down the chance to watch such an awesome hour of tv again?

The answer is simple. It's impossible. Can't wait to catch the rerun. Grey's deserves to be not only the highest rated show on Sundays, but the highest rated show on tv.

It's impossible to say the words Greys Anatomy on campus without woman turning their head and saying 'that show rocks'. It really does. Keep up the good work.

[Nickey]

I am so glad i checked the web. i didn't event know it changed times i sat down to watch it at 10 and it wasn't there :( luckly my husband was watching the super bowl and knew of the time change. but then the tivo stopped right at the good part! thank goodness you are repeating it on thursday! yippy!

ps - i just love the show!

[Grey]

By the way, the shower scene rocked, regardless of why it was there...

[CNMc]

Seriously. I've been looking around all night trying to find clips, find spoilers, find something to fill out where my TiVO left off.

And then I found this. This TiVO user really appreciates that this came through. I'll go schedule it right now. Thanks again!

[Guy Fan]

... by the way, although the entire episode was fun - the shower scene rocked, regardless of why it was there...

[Bowen]

YAY!

Too bad I don't have TiVo, but I didn't miss a second of the episode on Sunday because I was just sitting there eating ice cream as soon as the SuperBowl ended, and suddenly, Sandra, Ellen, and Katie are showering each other, and I thought it was just another preview until I finally realized it was the show, cursing my misfortune that I forgot to tape the shower scene (Yeah, just so you know, I tape freaking EVERY SECOND of each episode of your show, Shonda. You totally freaking rock).

But anyway, back to mild terms, I'm grateful that you're putting it back on the air this week because most of my friends missed the first half-hour of it, and therefore, I couldn't have the hour-long discussions on each episode I have with them like I do every other week.

But basically, everyone I know watched some parts of it on Sunday, and you've pretty much drawn the biggest and best crowd any producer/writer/creator could imagine. You've done your job and you've done it well, Mrs. Rhimes.

Oh, and for the record, thanks for helping Sandra get her Golden Globe and her SAG award. You've done us Asians proud!!!!!!

[Christiana]

woot woot! thanks for working hard to bring a great show to the masses. i know it's probably not easy to put together something this awesome, but you should know it's greatly appreciated, especially by me! let me just say that the entire time crisis was almost too much for me this past sunday. i was one of the many who missed the show because of the eastern vs. pacifc time. i thought it was going to be on at 10, like it always is. but to my surprise, it was not. thankfully, one of my friends lent me a copy and my addiction for the show was fed!
i must give you and team of amazing co-writers major props for this episode! it was definitely one of the best you've ever done. although, i thought the whole meredith sticking her hand in while hannah took hers out, was a little ridiculous. but, i guess i don't know everything that will happen. i trust you...
haha, anyway...thank you for making a show that pulls on my heart strings! i love the characters and the way that i am able to connect so easily with them. great job. if there were a christiana wong awards show, "grey's anatomy" would take home every single prestigious award! thanks again and God bless you!!!

[Tanya]

We love you shondra and abc for doing this! i actually saw the episode sunday glued to my seat the whole time and have watched the clips but having a rerun will make the week pass a little faster! thank you so much! i hope this makes you realize how important this show is to all of us!

[JoJo]

Never an extraneous character to be found...thank you for continuing the superb writing, thank you for the behind-the-scenes scoop...and for those with 2nd hour anxiety issues...Good things come to those who wait! Patience is a virtue!...besides, what choice do we have?!?!?!?!

Now, what about Meredith and Kyle's character, hmmm?? Could be a good McDreamy diversion?!? He saves her life, she gets all googly-eyed over her redeemer???

[Toya]

Shonda,

Thank you *so* much!!! I am one of the people you heard screaming with dismay and rage. My husband came running into the family room, sure that someone was trying to kill me - when, in fact, I had just decided that TiVo hates me because it cut off my beloved Grey's Anatomy halfway through. So, thank you ... and I will certainly be watching AND TiVo-ing for posterity.

Oh, and ... I love George (or TK). I want him to be my friend, too.

[Java]

Myt husband was totally dismissive of my addiction ("Just another Gilmore Girls on conversational, annoying steroids").

Then he woke up TUESDAY and said "Now how did I sleep through that ending??
Of course, he didn't...totally converted I do believe!! I'd been telling him I don't watch ER or Soaps and that this is neither!!

[GreysIsNumberOne]

ok so i hear you read all of these and i'm not shure if you ever got a request like this but if possible could you please accept my request.ok as soon as i heard about "its the end of the world" and that it would be a 2 parter i thought that this song would be perfect for one of the eppies so heres the name and the band and song

Band:Muse

[Jessica K.]

[Dallas Mike]
