Grey's Anatomy: Don't Stand So Close To Me

buddytv · 12-01-2006, 04:08 AM

Following last week's super-intense Grey's Anatomy, last night was more somber, subdued, with a crazy medical procedure to take our minds off the poor state of many of the character's lives. What's the crazy medical situation, you ask? It's Siamese...oh, oops, I mean...it's Conjoined Twins! Adult conjoined twins, that is, and they want to be separated. For a girl.

The conjoined twins were played by the Sklar brothers (Randy and Jason), who sports fans might know from ESPN's Cheap Seats, which I believe is no longer producing new episodes. They burst onto the scene a few years ago with a documentary on their love of St. Louis Cardinals great Jose Oquendo. Okay, maybe they didn't "burst" onto the scene. But, their fame is certainly palpable in some segments of the population.

As for the character, I am a Burke supporter. I love the guy. There are entire websites just dedicated to Burke and Cristina with literally thousands of fans all of the world. There are hundreds of videos of the best scenes between these two all over the internet. Why would anyone at abc be that stupid to even entertain the briefest of notions about losing a character with this kind of fan base that is so central to the stories. In addition, the man is a phenomenal actor. I don't c
