In Search of Myself: My Grey's Anatomy top 20 favs

So I thought of something fun we can do (and "we" being the hard-core, crazy Grey's Anatomy fans.)

Here are my top 20 favorite moments and quotes from Grey's Anatomy, off the top of my head. I'm sure I'm missing some fabulous ones, but these are the ones that stand out in my mind.

1. Mer to Der: "You don't get to call me a whore. When I met you, I thought I had found the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with. I was done. So all the boys, and all the bars, and the obvious daddy issues, who cared? Because I was done. You left me. You chose Addison. I'm all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what YOU broke. You don't get to call me a whore."

2. The smile on Der's face when he finally told Mer he loved her. (Season 3, premiere.)

3. Mid-season 2: The moment when Callie was cutting George's hair and he grabbed her arm, turned around, and kissed her. I like Callie. She's dark and freaky, but she's REAL. I like that.

4. The hot Mer/Der sex in the exam room in the season 2 finale. WOW.

5. Bailey while giving birth: "O'Malley, stop looking at my VA-JAY-JAY!"

6. Izzie (talking to Mer about Finn): "Four dates, two sleepovers at his house, and you haven't had sex? Oh. Oh, I am like a proud mama."

7. Mer: "We're adults. When did that happen? And how do we make it stop?"

8. When Dr. Bailey was back after bedrest for her pregnancy and yelling at her interns, and George just stepped forward and hugged her. SWEET GEORGE. Then her water broke on his shoes. heh.

9. Speaking of which, George's speech convincing Dr. Bailey to stop fighting it, and to sit up and have the baby. That was the day I fell in love with George (and my 3rd favorite moment on this list from that episode. heh.)

10. Callie in season 3 premiere: "She's 17, Finn. We're all 17. This is high school with scalpels." And her "I'm a freak. I'm the girl in the back of the class, eating her hair." Again, I LOVE Callie.

11. Finn to Mer, season 3 premiere again: "I know you think you're scary and damaged." Mer: "Dark and twisty." ha ha ha ha ha.

12. Der to George, same episode: "SOONISH? I will love you SOONISH?" That whole scene kicked ass.

13. Mer to Alex: "Dude, you lost your mojo." "Excuse you?" "I was trying to talk boy." and later she tells him "I hope you find your mojo. I find you disturbing without it."

14. Christina: "You know, there have only been three careers I have ever wanted – ruler of my own planet, Wonder Woman, or a surgeon. And I don’t see any invisible planes or extra countries lying around."

15. Season one, Der to Mer: "You blew me off for tequila? Tequila's no fun. It doesn't write. It doesn't call. It's not nearly as fun to wake up to in the morning." And then they kiss. Totally hot.

16. Mark to Mer: "What if, just this once, fate comes down on the side of the dirty ex-mistress?"

17. When Alex finally kissed Izzy at the bar. Then she just took a drink and said "Seriously." heh.

18. Mer's Pick me. Choose me. Love me. speech. 'Nuff said.

19. (Right after Der chose Addie and everyone was gossipping about her.) When everyone is in the "pregnant guy"'s room and Mer goes crazy yelling at them, telling them to leave him alone and if they want to stare at and talk about her, that's fine, but to give the patient some privacy. Then Der is looking at her across the hallway and she says "And what are YOU looking at." I love when she summons the courage to stand up for herself.

20. Burke to Chr: "Should we talk about this?" (their randomly having sex all the time in season 1. heh.) C: "yeah, totally" and walks away. heh. And later when he pushes she says "You need a definition? You wanna be THAT guy?"

21. Ooh, ooh, one more. Season two premiere when Mer is trying to process the fact that her boyfriend has a wife. She's trying to leave the building, in the rain, and drunk, and he's trying to explain. He says "I know how you feel." And she says "Do you? Somehow I doubt that. Because if you did, you would shut up and you would turn around and walk go back inside. Because you would understand that I am THIS CLOSE to getting in my car and running you down IN THE PARKING LOT." And then Geroge runs after her with an umbrella and drives her home. Sweet wonderful George.

22. heh. another one more. Early in Season two when Addie is in town and Mer is all mad at Der for not telling her he's married. Addie and Der are at the elevator. Der says "You know, you really are Satan. If Satan took human form, he'd be you. Everywhere. All the time." Addie: "Quit being petty." Der: "Quit being an adulterous bitch." HA HA HA HA.

I think you quoted them word for word, you're a little crazy ;-)
All moments listed are great, I really think it's hillarious when they call Addison the "she-Shepherd."
And when Cristina is recovering and she doesn't want to be touched, but Burke holds her while she cries...so sweet ;-)
