Dear Grey's Anatomy Writers:
Upon reading some of the comments on the Grey's Anatomy Writers Blog, you are starting to hear some overdue criticism from us loyal viewers. This formerly smart and interesting show has run amok due to sensationalism.
It *feels* like (creator) Shonda Rhimes is less involved now and the characters are gravitating away from 3D to 2D. Get back to the subtleties you were known for in Season 1 & 2--the touching stories, the medical/philosophical learnings--make us care about the characters again.
And by the way, you don't need a "Super Bowl episode" every week to sustain viewers. You just don't. The 3 episode "Ferry Crisis" could have been handled in 2 well-cut episodes. (Three eps was bloated and self-indulgent.)
Now, I know without the Meredith/Derek tension of Season 2, there's not that overriding anguish that makes drama so delicious but you don't have a comparable situation with the Izzie/Callie/George triangle. I think you need an intervention--get back to basics. Solicit ideas via a contest from the fans even, you might get some gems and give yourselves some perspective before you ruin my most favorite show on TV.
Love,
Kali

Just Fix It....
OUTRAGE!!!
Hey Cougs,
Take a look at this t-shirt on the CBS Sport Store. Can you find the Cougar Logo?
No?
But can you spot the UW "W" in the lower left quadrant?
That's funny because the Huskies aren't even "on the road to the Final Four." They're not in the NIT either.
Would you like to express your outrage to CBS Sports?
Make your feelings known via Email or Call: 1-866-690-2381.
Much love,
Kali
P.S. Congratulations to the Cougs who won today against Oral Roberts University--consider it a spiritual win also.
Good luck on Saturday against Vanderbuilt!

Cougar Pride, go vote!
UPDATE: Wouldn't you know it, but they closed voting today.
How convenient of them to stop the poll when there was a 50/50 tie.

To my fellow WSU (Cougar) alumni, students, friends and blog readers....
It's fun to embarrass the Huskies. Go vote for the Cougs!!!!
Please go vote on the Coug vs. Husky Pride Survey that the UW (Husky) Alumni have going on on their site: http://www.washington.edu/alumni/survey/
When it first came out, the Cougs were winning by 70% vs. 30%. This survey was featured in the Seattle Times a few days back.
The Columns March Vote was completed at noon on March 15th. At that time, the
vote was a tie, with 50 percent voting for the Huskies and 50 percent voting for
the Cougars. With more than one million votes, we have found that there have
been multiple votes cast from several unique computer addresses. Both Huskies
and Cougars have taken advantage of loopholes to cast multiple ballots.

3 / 11 = 33 years
I celebrated my birthday yesterday, very low-key like. Ken gave me a Wii system and already it's racked up many hours of usage. I do love how the input devices are so intuitive and it's not such a "guy's console." I'm already addicted to the Tennis game & Warioware.
Some Girls Would Kill For It...Hampel & friends are at it again with the new Internet Drama series: Prom Queen. That's a great tag line. Certainly, I hope this one lives up to expectations. During Sam Has 7 Friends, I couldn't help but feel the 4 directors didn't exactly know who their audience was: women or fans of Quentin Tarantino. But I know the guys learned a lot and are busting their butts on this one. Best of luck on this production. The first show is available April 2nd. Check it out.
A USA Today article notes that project-sponsor Michael Eisner (former Disney CEO) "also expects the series to open a lot of people's eyes to the business potential of professional Internet entertainment." Amen, brother.
