Absolutely. I just went back to S1. On 6 now. I knew GA would survive the loss of Derek, Lexie, Mark, Izzy, and George. Just barely. But I did NOT believe it would survive Cristina’s departure. The show changed but it did not die. April had much to do with that. Tough when Alex and Arizona left. Covid season was ghastly. I haven’t seen current one. Kate Walsh return should help.

[@davidsinnott7160]

In the original casting notes for the Grey’s pilot, the character of Yang was considered to be something of a rival to Meredith, and would have been the most antagonistic character in the original pilot. This was before they realised the potential for having the Grey/Yang friendship. A lot of things change. The original plan was to pair up Meredith with Burke. Bailey was originally imagined as a romantic interest for George. So many things changed after casting. So based on the original casting notes, before they changed things, Yang was considered more antagonistic towards Meredith.

[@marykylaeroapras3064]

Knowing the original plan for Bailey and George its kind a awkward Bailey and George in love interest. They have mother and son relationship.

[@davidsinnott7160]

@@marykylaeroapras3064 this was a very early draft. They originally planned on casting “a tiny blonde” in the role of Bailey, to make her stern personality more of a contrast. But that was before Chandra Wilson came in and they adjusted the role. One of the blessings of Greg’s doing a totally blind casting process. The character, like Christina, was originally conceived very differently, so if they’d gone the romantic route we wouldn’t have gotten the relationship we saw onscreen, as they changed their minds.

i was about to say the same thing, she really made a good move with that. for one, it would be harder for her to go for other roles having been christina SO long, much like ellen is basically only seen as meredith now. also listening to her i feel like she needed that element of evolving and not sticking to christinas character. they had done a lot with christina already, so even tho i was really sad to see her go, for greys and for sandra, it really was a logical move. tbh greys has been going on for too long and now ellen saying that theres a lot of money involved and many people depend on it, it seems like she keeps going so people can keep their jobs, not bc they still have GREAT storylines to cover.

[@amelzemmoura3264]

I feel like more than anything, her leaving grey's anatomy was more of a Christina move rather than a Sandra one, just like her character, she wants something more innovative, challenging! She was getting very comfortable with the character and that didn't bring her any progress that she thrived, just like how Christina wanted to conquer more in her surgeon career, Sandra wanted to discover more of her palette. And i admire this woman so much for her quick wit and self understanding methods, she knows what's good for her, she isn't afraid of rock bottom and she is well delicate with how she manages herself.

Like everything she’s in, “The Chair” was just amazing!!! Great acting, the story felt real, very well told, and was obsessed with the relationship between the main characters and the dynamic with the kid. I encourage everyone to watch it ❤️

I wish she talked about her role in Under the Tuscan Sun! One of my all time favourites. Her friendship with Diane Lane in the movie is so moving.

Sandra Oh is one of my all time favorite actresses. I love how her passion for acting is so timeless. She is intensely serious and effortlessly funny at the same time.

She is so well spoken. I loved listening to what she had to say for every role!

[@canarytea7094]

I love her. The way she speaks about her roles. You feel her passion for the art. It's not just acting for her, its art, its expression.

Greys Anatomy and Killing Eve are two of my very fave shows!! Really excited to watch "The Chair". Sandra is an incredible actress and also has the most beautiful curly hair! 😍

I knew Sandra Oh was an actor but when she said dramaturgy, I knew she was an ACTOR! No wonder she is so good.

She deserves everything. And more. One of the most courageous actresses.

She’s an amazing actress.

The whole interview was so profound, that is a well 14 minutes and 24 seconds spent. Thank you Sandra Oh for the lessons.

Hello dear how are you?

Her role in The Princess Diaries made me fall in love with her. It was a small role, but she ATE. It was fantastic and no one else could’ve done it better than her.
