Major Owen Hunt Reporting for Duty
Well, well, well… Looks like Seattle Grace will have its very own – and very first – badass, camo-wearing, army-trauma-surgeon walking its halls very, very soon…
His name is Owen Hunt, and, let me just say, the doctor is in, ladies…
I met Dr. Hunt (who insisted I call him Owen) a few hours ago. I heard about this dude a few weeks ago – back when he allegedly trached a patient with a ballpoint pen. I don’t really know what that means, but, it’s apparently some crazy-but-awesome MacGyver surgery that ended up saving a guy’s life.
Okay – seriously – how much man-candy can one hospital take?? No doubt, Owen is sure to shake things up at SGH. I mean, the dude’s clearly as hardcore as they come. He doesn’t take ‘no’ for an answer. He challenges authority. He drinks whiskey (but not tonight, because he starts work tomorrow). And he makes Cristina weak in the knees. Literally…
Oh, you should’ve seen this one, folks. Cristina was just about to leave tonight, when she took one look at Owen and stopped DEAD in her tracks. Right in the middle of the bar. Going all psycho-stalker-staring crazy. I witnessed the whole thing! She froze. Stunned. Bewildered. Unable to move.
I had to walk up to Cristina and ask if everything was okay… That’s when she shook her head, “no” and proceeded to slowly back out of the bar. Surprisingly (thankfully), I don’t think Owen saw her. But, folks… It. Was. Weird.
Although, not quite as weird as a diseased kidney in a jar.
Yes. A diseased kidney. In a jar. Derek came in tonight carrying one and then gave the damn thing to Meredith. As a “present.” As an, “I’m sorry I took all of the credit for the clinical trial that YOU developed now please take this diseased kidney in a jar and let’s get out of here and go home and have make-up sex.”
Well, I guess McDreamy’s plan worked because Meredith was elated with this very special – and very non-FDA approved – form of organ donation. I didn’t get it. It looked like that thing that jumped out of that dude’s stomach in Aliens. What’s so special about a diseased kidney in a jar? What, does the thing glow or something? Now that would be cool…
Alright, it’s about closing time, and I’ve got to get some sleep because I know – I just know – tomorrow night’s gonna be a long one. Okay, so I can admit, I’m kinda looking forward to it. Dr. Owen Hunt turns SGH upside down tomorrow, and I’ve got a drink with Cristina’s name on it, ready and waiting…

What a long 7 days this will be. I want Owen now!

You've got that right Joe! The doctor is in the house! I've been waiting for the Major's return ever since the first episode. Who would have thought the word "So..." could be so HOT!!!

I used to like this show but I think it is really sick that he stabbed pigs for them to keep alive. I know the show said "no animals harmed" but for a show to even have that is sick.. this show lost alot of my respect and will not watch it as long that ass is on there. they have good guys on it now they dont need some guy that "thinks" he is great.

i am disappointed in this show....i have kids who love this show, but stabbing pigs who are tied down ? that is not right, my kids were upset over that. this used to be a so called nice show to watch. and a family show.....some of it. but this is ridiculous.

Not sure if I will watch Grey's after the pig abuse episode. I am very upset and disappointed.

Can someone, anyone PLEASE tell me what happened to Izzy and George? Has everyone forgotten that Izzy cheated on George with Alex. Dont get me wrong I LOVE Alex and Izzy together but I also loved Callie and George together too. Please dont just leave me hanging out there with no idea of what happened to Iz and George.If Izzy and George werent going to stay together, why put Callie through all that pain and still some with Hahn leaving her without a goodbye.I mean good writtens for sure, cause I would much rather see Callie and Mark make a go at things. But back to Izzy and Alex. Izzy needs to get it together because Alex is the one to watch. He's really growing up and turning into a real man. I LOVE that. Keep Mer and Der together. Let us know if George flipped out on Iz for cheating. And REMOVE Izzy's ghost.

I love this blog, Joe! :D And yes, I love how Owen makes Cristina weak in the knees! The scene last night was cute too! :D
Posted by: Shee | November 22, 2008 at 01:56 AM
YES, indeed I am totally liking this doctor. He is easily climbing the hottie doctor ladder.
Posted by: Maria | November 23, 2008 at 03:50 PM
Alli, I agree with you. I love Grey's but it is definitely not a family show. There is no way I would let kids watch this show. And it's not just about the pigs, blood and gore. The sex in the storylines is sooo not suitable for young people.

Oh man i LOOOOVE yang/hunt romance. The FIRST time I saw them together, all i could say was "WOW". And when he left for iraq, i had to scream "COME BACK" at the tv over and over again. LOL i'm so glad he's back now! MORE SMEXY KISSAGE SCENES PLEASE!
