Tired of Grey’s Anatomy shanghaiing 80 percent of Ask Ausiello week in and week out? Or are you peeved that it’s not 100 percent? Well, I finally figured out how to make everyone happy… at least this week: Feast your eyes on this, a special, one-time-only edition of AA that focuses exclusively on Grey’s — or more specifically, on this week’s pivotal episode, which I have just seen.* Let’s get this Q&Grey’s started!
Question: How and when is Izzie’s "condition" on Grey’s going to be revealed? — Sarah
Ausiello: Officially, the dead-guy-sexing resident won’t be diagnosed for a few more weeks. Unofficially, however, we will get our first clue into what’s ailing her at the end of Thursday’s episode. There’s another twist, yes, but luckily, it’s one only an idiot wouldn’t see coming. Here’s a hint just for those special folks: Izzie isn’t anemic.
Question: Is Dr. Bailey going to take over as the head cardio surgeon? — Dee
Ausiello: While I can’t confirm that, I can confirm that she receives some potentially career-altering news.
Question: Do you have any Grey’s scoops? — Bryan
Ausiello: Thursday’s ep features one of the funniest, all-female group
hugs ever. Also, there’s a bawdy cafeteria scene that is so
quintessentially Grey’s that it reminded me how much I miss the good,
ol’ show. Oh, and did I mention the girl-on-girl action? ‘Cause there
is some!
Question: Anything new on Cristina and Owen? — Gaby
Ausiello: Lots of cheesy, slow-mo, piano-scored interludes will give
way to an emotional collapse that is either extremely moving or
ridiculously over the top. I haven’t made up my mind yet.
Question: Can you help a girl out and give us anything on Cristina and Hunt? — Erin
Ausiello: This may or may not shed light on the above spoiler, but this
week marks the arrival of Laura Allen (Dirt) as a woman from Owen’s
past.
Question: It’s my birthday, so I wondered if I can have some delicious NCIS scoop? — Chris
Ausiello: Happy birthday, and… no. Sorry, this is a special edition
of Ask Ausiello that focuses solely on Grey’s Anatomy (see above for more). Check back on
Wednesday for the regular non-discriminatory AA. That may have what
you’re looking for.
Question: My wife made me watch all five seasons of Grey’s Anatomy, and
I have to say I enjoyed every bit of it. My question is: Do you have an
update on T.R. Knight? Is he leaving? — Dennis
Ausiello: Nothing official’s been decided, but I suspect Thursday’s ep
may have been the straw that broke the underused actor’s back: George
is literally on screen for about 10 seconds.
Question: Any Mer/Der news you can share? — Lindsay
Ausiello: By the end of this week’s episode, I’m pretty sure everyone
in Seattle Grace (patients included) will have seen that damn ring except poor Meredith.
Thoughts on scoop above? And what do you make of this experimental AA
spin-off? Super-fun warm-up for Wednesday’s main event or an
unnecessary diversion that runs the risk of diluting the original?
Sound off below!
*The above statement does not preclude me from including Grey’s Anatomy questions and answers in this Wednesday’s Ask Ausiello.

I was expecting a lot of news…this was not a lot of news…just another little tease. The headline made it sound like there was going to be some GREAT info!!! Come on Ausie, Wednesday better be good!!
I LOVE YOU MICHAEL! We should make this spin off permanent (and only about Grey’s)
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the extra Grey’s scoopage. There can never be enough AA in my humble opinion. Keep on delighting us with your insider information any day any time:)
Super-fun warm-up for Wednesday’s main event!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this extra AA which is ALL about my no 1 fav tv show!! The fact that it does not preclude me from including Grey’s Anatomy questions and answers in this Wednesday’s Ask Ausiello is even better!! THANK YOU for this, and… please do it more often! We just LOVE Grey’s!!!!
Thank you for the extra scoop.
So if Izzie is not anemic does that mean she is polycythemic?
Two spoilers on Cristina and Owen in this Ask Ausiello. Last week spoilers on Meredith and Derek. I NEED SPOILERS ON ALEX AND IZZIE!
Superfun warm-up. Love the spin-off idea. Every once in a while, could you throw us a delicious bone? May I humbly request that in the future..just every once in a while, you could do this for other great shows as well?
Izzie’s Pregnant!?
Interesting stuff, and while I certainly enjoyed this special edition treat, a large part of me wishes it weren’t about Grey’s (why I still watch this show is beyond me)
Thanks for the special edition of AA! The AA spin-off is sure better than the GA spin-off. I’ll tune on for this spin-off, not for Private Practice though.
There are spoilers for every character around except Alex. What’s going on with him and when does he find out Izzie is sick?
YAY for the all-Grey’s AA! Now can you do one for the House fans so it can stop cluttering up 80% of your Wednesday report?
I vote yes to any additional AA extras that are devoted to my favorite shows. Bring them on! Thanks for the Grey’s scoops.
i love this mini AA, thank you. it would be even better if you would consider making this permanent.
Any spoilers at all for Smallville?
Enjoyed the AA for us GA fans. Please consider making it a weekly feature. I will not be watching any of this crazy crossover “stuff” … not a fan of PrP ever.
This was a fabulous idea! I have always been in the “why isn’t AA 100% Grey’s!!!” camp – and this gives the 100% I crave, plus an opportunity to get the scoop on Brothers and Sisters! What’s not to love?
Girl on girl? Have Callie and Arizon even met yet? GAWD tired of the lesbian fest just making out on Greys without even meeting.
is there gonna be any Greys next week? or is it all PP on Greys?
Mike,
I’m fine with the additional Grey’s AA, but if you continue to do it, please leave Grey’s out of the Wednesday AA’s so other shows like Chuck, Gossip Girl, Chuck and Chuck can get more face time. BTW, I know this is out of left field, but any Chuck scoop?
I’m only a MerDer fans and I’m really tired! KILL ADDISON and this CRAPPY CROSSOVER!
OMG OMG I <3 uuu Ausiello!!!!
thank u thank u thank u
gracias in spanish!!!
danke in german!!!
merci in french!!!
so does Izzie not being anemic=pregnant?
Any chance you could tell us when Clana will finally be off Smallville? Cause seriously, EIGHT years is ENOUGH!
I loved the all Grey’s scoop.. you’ve made my Monday!
Thank you for sparing the rest of us from anything REAL AA that’s all about Greys! Stopped watching in the beginning of this season.
MWAHH!
Thanks for the extra info! Hoping for some Izzie/Alex spoilers on Wednesday.
Good gosh, Shonda let that proposal news leak weeks ago and then as always, will milk it to death until we no longer care. I am so tired of getting DIZZIE/Izzie news week in and week out and not one solid Mer/Der spoiler since the final episode of last season. I wish Ausiello, you could do something, call someone, get us some real facts on what is happening with the core couple of the show because the promo monkeys and Shonda Rhimes sure like to drop the Mer/Der hints all over for buzz but give us no news. What’s up with that and can we please fix it?
A whole AA devoted to GA (awesome!) but no news on Mark/Lexie, and very little MerDer… sigh.
so if everyone has seen the ring except meredith by the end of the episode, that means derek won’t get to propose in this one. CRAP!
Thanks for the info. Now, if you can just hook us up about the BEST romance – Alex and Izzie! Need info, please!!! Tell me she won’t die and leave Alex heartbroken! I want them together for good!
