After a brief vice-presidential interlude, we return to Seattle Grace this week only to find it in a shambles. None of the Chief's recommitments to teaching really matter when the ceiling is literally crumbling all around you, right? Frankly, as far as
Grey's Anatomy tragedies go, a little flooding doesn't really rate.

With the
two-hour season premiere of
Grey's Anatomy kicking off last week,
Ellen Pompeo couldn't have looked more businesslike with her BlackBerry Curve smartphone (which was shielded in a black gel case), her black
Motorola Bluetooth H375 headset ($50), and another black tiny cell phone in her left hand. I had no idea she was such a gadget girl! Now if only she had a big bag to hide all her high tech toys in.

Ellen Pompeo sported her sunglasses while out to lunch with a friend in Los Feliz yesterday before the
two-hour season premiere of
Grey's Anatomy. After waiting all Summer we finally got see what happens between Meredith and Derek, plus a new character and drama for all our old favorites. Grey's is on our list of
15 Fall shows, but after seeing last night's episode, are you happy to have it back on your
TiVo?
Grey's Anatomy pulled out all the stops for its season premiere on Thursday, with a two-hour episode that seemed at times to be atoning for the show's previous sins.

Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo, 39, recently talked about having a baby to
Allure. She said:“It’s a huge lifestyle change, and I take that very seriously.

Not everyone headed West for the
25th anniversary of the VMAs, and those that didn't turned out for Calvin Klein's 40th anniversary party at Along the Highline in NYC last night. Halle Berry and Gabriel got a babysitter for baby Nahla to get all prettied up to celebrate with the designer. Claire Danes,
quickly back from TIFF, looked beautiful and was joined by a gorgeously glowing pregnant Naomi Watts.

Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa. There's a new
Grey's Anatomy promo out there on the interwebs, and it is seriously juicy.

The onset of Summer also means the return of my
Five Questions series, in which I take a look back at the most recent seasons of some favorite TV shows and pose some hypothetical questions about their future. Today's questions are for
Grey's Anatomy, which will start its fifth season in the Fall.
- Mere and Der are together — now what?

The three words uttered most often during the season finale of
Grey's Anatomy were "really big trauma." They were used in reference to a teenager who was dared to lay in a vat of cement at a construction site, after which he was encased in several tons of concrete — yeah, you can say "really big trauma" again.
