Meredith Grey Character Study: "No one stood up for you." (wish#1)

[@ranibowunicorn]

I can’t believe they never brought up Thatcher slapping Meredith after it happened

[@hannahbanana8456]

ranibowunicorn ikr. I was waiting for that for so long

[@laurenhenderson9574]

ranibowunicorn RIGHT?

[@laurenhenderson9574]

ranibowunicorn i was so confused why derek didn’t say anything to thatcher or RICHARD stand up for mer.

The concept of Meredith Drowning and deciding to just let herself drown might be very far-fetched to a lot of people, in the sense that no one believes a human being would stop swimming in that kind of situation. But for those who have the sensibility and life experience to understand, this very concept is the most direct, clear and candid path to the depiction of people just like Meredith Grey.

[@themorbidhunger]

I really like what you have to say here. It sounds like you have a lot of insight. Would you please be more specific, and elaborate on what you mean when you say "people just like Meredith Grey'? I mean, are you referring to people who are very depressed, or have just had overall miserable life experiences, or to people who have a lot of repressed issues but constantly mask them and pretend that they're 'fine' all of the time? I ask because, as a novelist, I like to have as much understanding of different character types as possible and it seems like you have a great understanding of a specific character type that I'd like to learn more about. Thank you, ahead of time.

[@aishahsiddeeqa8311]

themorbidhunger I think what she means is people who are depressed to some degree maybe dysthymia so it appears to just be part of the package of who they are as a person rather than someone who is ill or has had many adverse life experiences. Many people online describe merideth as whiny for example and miserable but these could be symptoms instead. I also think the comment or may be referring to that fact that merideth has suicidal ideation but she is passively suicidal. What I mean by that is I think that merideth wouldn’t move out of the way if she was in the path of an oncoming truck but if she was next to it’s path she wouldn’t step in front of it either. She stops doing something in order to die but she doesn’t actually take action such as slitting her wrist or taking an overdose.

The more you watch the show the more you understand Meredith’s point of view

[@dompie23]

@@themorbidhunger It's not specifically people who are depressed I think. Sometimes, you just get tired, mentally. When everything is spinning out of control and after every hurdle you manage to pass by, is another one. To me, sometimes it feels like I'm juggling so many things, family, work, finances,... and the moment I lose track of one thing, the entire structure will fall. Sometimes living is just exhausting. I go to bed and wake up tired. In her case, she's been struggling, juggling her love life, friends, mother. She's exhausted. I fully understand why somebody would then think 'why can't I just rest now'. It's less about depression and more about being overwhelmed with life

[@weepingwillows21]

I felt an immediate connection with Meredith the second I watched the first episode. She's so strong despite her faults and wounds, and hats off to Ellen Pompeo! Meredith is who she is because of her portrayal. There will be only one like her.

Because she is average.

This is actually INCREDIBLE. The best Meredith Grey video I've ever seen, and trust me it's an understatement to say I've seen lots! I found this to be "dark and twisty" and haunting but also breath-taking and beautiful!

[@leahredwood6921]

I have been a Greys Anatomy fan for over a decade and I love your character study video. It was very well done and I do love Meredith Grey's character. She may be dark and twisty but she's honest, compassionate and she's smart. Meredith is the one who brings people together and helps make them be better. Thank you for this wonderful video! Well done!

Episodes with Richard and Meredith???

[@janicedevereux2839]

This video was great. Touched on many amazing scenes. My only complaint is that the music was as loud or louder than the dialogue. At times it was hard to hear the characters...

When in the end during her therapy scene, she said her mother wasn't talking about surgery at all, can anyone tell me what was she talkin about ??

[@jetilargo6867]

About beeing a Person. Not a profession but beeing yourself and a great human beeing without your job talking for you. Cause that is what made her mom ordinary. Not as a surgeon but as a simple person without much more than her beeing that

[@chloeprice3784]

she's not the good person you all are thinking of. I'm not saying Meredith didn't felt enough pain (everyone does), I'm just saying that she did so many bad things to others I don't even know why people love her so much. George, for example, has been ruined by this evil woman.

[@nicm2608]

George? George wasn't no victim, he damn well knew that she was in love with Derek, she was vulnerable and drunk and he took advantage of her but yet still act like he was innocent and allow her to feel guilty for months and turned their friends against her. After months of guilt, he realized what he had done to her and apologized to her season 2 episode 27. He also cheated on Callie, who loved him so much and treated him with respect so George was the evil one. Meredith has been through a lot yes, but she was one of the kindest person on there.

[@dorisdumas2372]

Huh?

[@yourelying44]

george is a grown man who chose to have sex with meredith knowing she was still in love with derek he threw a fit just because she cried seriously? she didnt do anything to him

Worst TV character ever

[@paycunha6092]

neha doe I’m not always the biggest Meredith fan but I don’t think she’s the worst character. I think she has a lot of flaws which is refreshing in a main character because many don’t seem to, they are always really perfect and she’s not. Sometimes I will agree that she can be very rude to people but she’s never been a horrible person even after all the bad that has happened to her. I use to hate mer and I figured out recently why. She is very similar to me with the fact that our parents didn’t want us and many deaths have circled around us. Now of course you have a right to not like her and everything just thought I’d explain a different view on the character.

[@KitTaylorMusic]

You have a serious issue if you are calling her the WORST tv character ever.. like I'm pretty sure there worse out there than that outstanding person right there!

[@Lauren-fj2vy]

Paige Livingston That was the first time I've seen someone comment why they think someone else is wrong without name calling, cursing, or threatening them. Well done, you're a good person!🙂

[@paycunha6092]

Lauren Shymanski thanks I think attacking a person about a fictional character is extreme and people are allowed to have their own opinions. So I wanted to explain why I think Meredith is a great character.

[@Lauren-fj2vy]

Paige Livingston no problem! And I agree with you completely, Meredith is a beautiful and flawed character
