'Grey's Anatomy' season finale not all happy endings
(via)Although Grey’s Anatomy season finale does a nice job of wrapping the various storyline from this season, not all the endings were happy. I’ll admit to being an optimist that likes happily ever afters, even if they are predictable. However, I do also appreciate a good story twist despite a sad ending. Nevertheless, Grey seemed to leave his characters with a large number of disappointments this season.
