STOP starting the show with the end of the show and doing that annoying "24 hours earlier" thing to explain how things got where we already know they went. It's a conceit that been grossly overused amongst a high number of shows in recent seasons and I'm sick of it.

Sincerely - CT

- I broke up with Grey's. Made it through last season, then didn't pick it back up this season when i found out who died. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 23, 11:48 1
