GREY'S ANATOMY - CALZONA: 

Okay. I need to get this off my chest before the 10^th season premieres. So. To start, I love Callie. I LOVE her. I watch the Callie Torres tag on Tumblr like a hawk. It is a problem. I also love Arizona AND I love them together (Calzona).

And for those of you are wondering who these randoms are or would like a re-cap, here is a present for you: Callie was incredibly sad because Erica (her sort of not really maybe kind of girlfriend) left her in the hospital parking lot so she went into the bathroom of Joes and was having somewhat of a sob. Nek minnit Arizona comes in and gives her the sweetest pep talk (I just… my heart) and kisses her. So they start going out. Things are good but then after a while Callie finds out Arizona NEVER wants kids ‘not in her life or her house or her womb’. This completely derails their relationship and they broke up but then this CRAZY gunman enters the hospital and starts shooting people up (Derek, my sweet bb) and Arizona realises she can’t live without Callie and ‘their ten kids’.

Right. Moving on. So all is good again. NEK MINNIT. Arizona wins this crazy prestigious Carter Madison grant WHICH REQUIRES HER TO MOVE TO AFRICA (seriously. Can you believe it?) and Callie decides to go with her. BUT. As is completely understandable, she was a bit upset. I MEAN HOW WOULD YOU FEEL? HAVING TO MOVE TO AFRICA BECAUSE YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER WON’T CONSIDER TURNING IT DOWN. And this showed. So Arizona got all butthurt and left Callie in the MIDDLE OF THE AIRPORT.

Right. How awful. I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE SHE DID THAT. UGHHHH. Moving on. Callie was obviously distraught. I mean, the girl has been through a lot of heartbreak. First, her husband cheated on her. Then, her sort of not really maybe kind of girlfriend left her in a parking lot AND NOW THE PERSON SHE THOUGHT SHE WOULD SPEND THE REST OF HER LIFE WITH ABANDONED HER IN THE MIDDLE OF AN AIRPORT. So she goes out with her friends. Gets a little drunk. Sleeps with Mark., her best friend.

NEK MINNIT.

Arizona comes back. Begs for Callie’s forgiveness. Callie tells her she’s pregnant with Mark’s baby.  This is already a massive deal but you need to understand that Arizona never really liked Mark because he and Callie were kind of a think back in the day. To add to this, Arizona never had any qualms at about letting Callie know she disliked the fact that Callie is bisexual and not a full-ledged lesbian.  (WHICH IS OFFENSIVE, CAN I JUST SAY). Thus, Callie sleeping with a man severely damaged her ego.

MOVING ON.

They get back together. All is good. Decide to raise the baby (to be named Sofia) together (Mark, Callie and Arizona) and all is great again.

NEK MINNIT

Arizona and a very pregnant Callie get into a car accident because Arizona proposed to her AND DIDN’T WATCH THE ROAD (UGHHHHHHHHH). Callie and the baby almost die. But they don’t. Which is very, very good.

All is good.  Sofia’s growing up. All the co-parenting is working out for everyone. Calzona is stronger than ever.

NEK MINNIT.

Arizona is in a plane crash. With Mark and a lot of other characters. (This episode actually broke my heart and I’m still not over it). So when they get back, Arizona’s leg is severely damaged. Mark dies. (STILL NOT OVER HIS DEATH). Despite Callie’s best efforts (she’s an orthopaedic surgeon) and the fact that she promised Arizona she wouldn’t have to amputate, she did. ONLY BECAUSE ARIZONA WAS CODING AND THE INFECTION WOULD HAVE TAKEN OVER HER BODY AND SHE WOULD HAVE DIED. SO CALLIE DECIDED TO CUT OFF HER LEG TO SAVE HER WIFE’S LIFE. BECAUSE AN ARIZONA MINUS A LEG IS BETTER THAN NO ARIZONA.

Okay. So post-surgery, Arizona pretty much is the biggest bitch to Callie. YOU WOULDN’T EVEN BELIEVE HOW HORRIBLE SHE WAS. (Which. I admit. Is kind of understandable but still. SHE WOULD HAVE DIED OTHERWISE. SHE WOULD NEVER HAVE SEEN CALLIE OR SOFIA AGAIN. AND I JUST.. HOW DID SHE NOT UNDERSTAND THAT?)

Anyway. After months of taking all this crapola from Arizona, things finally start getting better. All is good. They work through their issues. Sofia is happy. Callie is happy. Arizona is happy… OR SO WE THOUGHT.

NEK MINNIT. ARIZONA SLEEPS WITH SOME RANDOM DOCTOR SHE KNEW FOR ALL OF THREE DAYS WHEN IT TOOK HER MONTHS TO LET HER OWN WIFE BE REMOTELY INTIMATE WITH HER AFTER THE PLANE CRASH.

AND THEN. WAIT FOR IT. WAIT FOR IT.

WHEN CALLIE FINDS OUT, ARIZONA HAS THE NERVE TO PRETTY MUCH BLAME CALLIE. ARIZONA YELLS AT HER AND TELLS CALLIE THAT SHE DIDN’T LOSE ANYTHING (even though Callie’s BEST FRIEND AND SOFIA’S FATHER DIED AND ARIZONA ALMOST DIED AS WELL) AND THEN. WAIT FOR IT. CALLIE REPLIES WITH… ‘Apparently I lost you’. (I AM STILL NOT OVER THIS AND MY HEART BREAKS EVERY TIME).

Okay. So where my post season 10 sneak peek rant part starts is here: 

Watch the sneak peek here:

Can I just say, how is Arizona not begging for Callie’s forgiveness? Pretty sure I would be on the floor crying, begging and just grovelling. THE GUILT WOULD EAT ME ALIVE. And yeah, Arizona is probably still pissed at Callie for cutting off her leg when she promised otherwise but gurl, be real.

HOW NAIVE IS SHE TO BELIEVE CALLIE WHEN SHE PROMISED SHE WOULDN’T CUT IT OFF IN THE FIRST PLACE. Like yeah, she’s your wife and you trusted her ‘more than anybody’. But Arizona’s a surgeon too. As if she wouldn’t have her doubts. AND WHAT DID SHE EXPECT CALLIE TO SAY WHEN SHE MADE THAT PROMISE? ‘Sorry. You’re having a breakdown right in front of me but I can’t promise you you’ll keep your leg. Stop crying. K thanks’. 

LITERALLY THE WORST SITUATION POSSIBLE.

And I don’t care what anyone else posts on Tumblr about how there should be no ‘team Callie’ or ‘team Arizona’ but we should all just be ‘team Calzona’. EXCUSE ME SNAPS FINGERS I CAN BE ON WHOSEVER TEAM I WANT TO BE. And I have to say, I’m siding with Callie on this one. I understand Arizona has PTSD and CLEARLY LOST HER DAMN MIND but it doesn’t make what she did right. AND IT CERTAINLY DOESN’T MAKE WHAT SHE’S DONE IN THE PAST RIGHT EITHER. How many times has she broken Callie’s heart? It’s AWFUL. And judging by the sneak peek, Callie is NOT standing for it which I am so glad for because she is a BAMF (as evidenced by the below gif) and Arizona deserves to get her ass handed to her (still though, my poor bb I’m so sorry you lost your leg and had to go through that).

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Callie being a BAMF:

Vent: Why Dan being Gossip Girl is silly (NOTE: This post WILL 100% contain spoilers)

Okay so unless you live in a cave (or were just never really that into gossip girl) you would've heard that bloody Daniel- freaking- Humphrey was crowned the gossip queen of our beloved Upper East Side. There are so many problems with this, it's just not even funny. 

In my perspective it's kind of like the writers got super lazy towards the end and were like, "Dude, I just wanna go home. Make it that dickhead Dan."

This show, as it is, is so flawed, for example, the fact that Dan so easily fell in love with Blair even though she had BANISHED his sister from the city. I mean come on really. It's the Humphrey's. They're like family > bullshit. Or the fact that Nate Archibald could so easily become the editor in chief of a newspaper even without graduating from college. 

You're probably thinking, "Yeah, come on man, this show has next to no realism in it." Yeah, okay, that's fine but Dan being Gossip Girl REALLY?! Let's just take a moment to go through JUST A FEW of the reasons why this conclusion makes no real sense at all. 

#1

In season 4, when Blair and Dan are looking for Juliet and as such need an address, Dan asks Gossip Girl for help. But wait. He's Gossip Girl. Okay, buddy.

#2

What about when Dan cheats on Blair, with Serena, and Gossip Girl posts the scandalous video. But, wait, he's Gossip Girl. 

#3

What about all the nasty posts about Little J. His little sister, whom he happens to love and care about and who also knew he was Gossip Girl. She went cray, but yet did not reveal his identity. Okay then.

#4

Doesn't anyone else find it incredibly creepy that this random dude spent like 6 years of his life slut-shaming and critiquing high school girls. Get a life, weirdo.

#5

How we always loved Dan and Serena because they were from two different worlds. But wait, Dan spent his life writing rude things about all her friends.

I could literally keep going on why I was so not happy with Dan being gossip girl. But it is, what it is and is still one of my most loved tv series.

Vent: Grey's Anatomy, Calzona 10x01-10x02. 

What I don’t understand is people who are hating on Callie for taking Sofia away from Arizona. Umm. Did you not watch the episode? They’re alternating every two nights? And initially, all Callie wanted to do was cool down and be given her space. Although, I do understand the panic Arizona felt. Regardless, this is not something that can be used against Callie. She is clearly not crass and wants Arizona to be a part of Sofia’s life, without a doubt. And while I don’t believe the whole ‘you made your bed now sleep in it’, when it comes to Sofia because she’s not just some pawn in their relationship. BUT, honestly. Arizona. What did she expect? She cheated on her WIFE and she’s acting like nothing happened and everything should just go back to normal? She’s acting like what she did can just be talked about and gotten over. IT’S A SERIOUS BETRAYAL. YOU DON’T JUST GET OVER SOMETHING LIKE THAT. Especially since this is the second time Callie has been cheated on.

Also. Can I just say that I feel as if the reactions that the other characters had to Arizona’s cheating were disappointing. Cristina was just like, ‘Robbins cheated on Callie’. Umm. AREN’T YOU AND CALLIE FRIENDS? GOOD FRIENDS IN FACT? DON’T YOU THINK YOU SHOULD GO TALK TO HER, SEE IF SHE’S OKAY?  I just.. Maybe I’m reading too much into this and comparing it to what people in real life would have done but honestly! Callie pretty much doesn’t have anyone that she’s extremely close to anymore. Who can she rely on? At least Meredith’s concern was truly heart-warming. As well as Derek comforting her… Somewhat. He let her drink all his wine, which is something. But still. Of all people, he should know how hurt she would be feeling since Addison cheated on him with HIS BEST FRIEND (I love you Addie). Not to mention, Mark is dead. Mark is dead. Who does that leave? Bailey? She didn’t even say anything about it.

Like. When your spouse cheats, that’s a massive deal is it not? Cristina towards the end, acting all godmother-y was actually really amazing though. But still, I just feel like Callie should have more of an ally to confide in.

If I were there I would have drank all night with Callie and let her cry on my shoulder. That is what friends do. These people have known each other for how long and it just annoys me.

Also. Is Arizona not aware that the word ‘sorry’ exists? Pretty sure the first thing any normal person does after cheating on their significant other is apologise. Nope. Not her.

I really hope that later on this issue comes up. It’s probably because she doesn’t even know WHY she cheated.

Here’s a link to the next sneak peek. 

Watch the 10x03 sneak peek here:

Arizona’s face when Owen fires back with how her and Callie can barely stand to be in the same room. My poor heart. Hopefully she realises how devastating her actions were 

BUT. despite the current shit storm (how do you like that for irony?), I have faith. They're Callie and Arizona. They'll make it. I have no doubt. And who knows, like Arizona said, they might even be stronger than before. 

For the record, I feel the need to commend both Sara Ramirez and Jessica Capshaw. They're just the most wonderful pair of actresses. Perfect casting is perfect.

Vent: America's Next Top Model: Cycle 20 - Rant on contestants. 

Before you judge me (stop judging me), America’s Next Top Model (ANTM) is AMAZING (stop judging me). It’s actual comedic gold but it will also make you cry like a little baby (stop judging me). Best of both worlds (stop judging me).

The show is currently in its 20^th cycle, spearheaded by the wonderfully talented and ridiculously gorgeous Tyra Banks.

I’ve got a lot of problems with the contestants this cycle and now, you’re gonna hear about it. (Also, some of them are actually awesome):

Chlea: Don’t even remember her.

Chris H: Ehhhh, I just think he’s really misunderstood. He can be a dick but he can also be really sweet, especially with Nina. Every time he talks about his childhood, I just… so sad.

THIS GIF OF HIM THO. 

Cory: Totally awesome guy. He is ALWAYS the peacekeeper in the house. The guy is so polite and sweet and I just... I really hope he does well because he deserves it.

Don: UNFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Seriously. Dis guyyyy. The tattoos. His eyes. I just. If the competition were based off looks alone then he would win, no questions. Also, the chicken leg photo-shoot in the latest episode is my new favourite thing ever.

Jeremy: His face. It annoys me. Always the same face. ALWAYS.

Jiana: UGHHHHHHHHH. SHE ALWAYS DID THE SAME THING WITH HER LIPS AT PHOTO-SHOOTS AND NOTHING ANNOYS ME MORE. Also. Her and Phil. Ughhhhh. Couldn’t stand her.

Jourdan: Jourdan is crushing it. Seriously. She could totally win. And I kind of hope she does. She’s the most talented and the least convoluted. And she doesn’t lead any one on (side reference to Jiana and Phil). She knows she has a boyfriend, she knows she’s in the competition to do her best so she doesn’t entangle herself in complication (UNLIKE OTHERS UGHHHHH).

LOOK AT HOW GORGEOUS THIS PHOTO IS. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT IT. 

Kanani: I feel bad that she left, especially because of the whole clown debacle. But. Oh well.

Marvin: Starvin’ Marvin. This guy. I swear. He confuses me so much. One week I really dislike him because he tries so hard to get with ANY of the girls and he talks as if he thinks he’s way too cool. Then the other week he refuses to say what Perez Hilton was directing him to say because he felt it was too rude. Props to him for that. Also, the guilt he felt when Kanani was eliminated because he practically traumatised her by hiding the clown doll in her bed. He was crying and everything! Favourite thing Marvin has ever said:

"I've cried in the girl's room. I've cried in the bathroom. I've literally cried everywhere." 

Mike: Is this the ice cream guy Tyra discovered? If so, he was really annoying.

Nina: Those eyes, those eyes, those eyes. I love that she really tried to connect with Chris even though everyone kind of hated him. She’s so sweet and quirky and I really like her.

Phil: Ahhh, yess. Homeless Jesus. He’s a cool guy. His hanging around Jiana was so annoying though and when he broke the fence on the set, like. Dude. Seriously?

Renee: She’s actually an awesome model. She could very well win. Although if it came down to her and Jourdan, hello drama. However, much can be said about her personality. She’s kind of a bitch. She can be very rude and horrible when she wants to be.

For fun and laughter, here's a gif of Jiana being eliminated (HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA)

My prediction is that Jourdan and Renee will be final two. omfgggg, the drama that would ensue. I can't even imagine it. 

Seriously, though. This cycle is tres fab. Really liking the introduction of men. Kind of balances everything out.
