An open letter to the Grey's Anatomy writers regarding last week's episode.
Dear Grey's Writers,
First off, I would like to congratulate you for creating a character as objectively and consistently awful and selfish as Arizona Robbins. Really! Good job! Impressive work, guys! Never in the history in of television has there been a character less likely to be happy for or share in her partner's joy about anything ever. I really like the way she pouted all the way through her girlfriend's baby shower because enjoying a party for someone you love that loves you and is carrying a child you have agreed to help raise is for losers. Duh! But what was really inspired was the way she wouldn't let Callie answer a phone call from HER BEST FRIEND and FATHER OF HER CHILD who was in an emotional tailspin because he gets "all the other parts of you." What's great about that is that despite totally not earning it, Callie has committed herself to Arizona rather than being with the father of her child or anyone else or being alone for that matter. Really, you're standing on the shoulders of giants here.
Next, I would like to ask you what the hell are you doing with Stark and April? It's weird and gross, and I don't like it. However, if you're going to write a 28-year-old virgin character, and make us like her, you better also give her an attractive man to lose it to. You cannot make me forget how much of ass Stark has already been, and besides he's really gross and if they do it please don't make me watch.
Finally, I would like to talk about the elephant in the room. I know your whole shtick is showing how people react in the face of death or life altering consequences, but in the real world people don't only solve their problems by contracting a fatal disease or getting in a terrible accident. Some of us just talk about our problems. Only the really indecisive have to develop a brain tumor or get hit by a bus. The only way I'm going to enjoy this car accident (which I spotted from a mile away when Callie took her seat belt off) is if you use it as a means to get rid of Arizona for good.
Keep up the good work!
XOXO
