Is it too early for a Christmas episode? Despite the fact that Grey’s Anatomy already ran through all of the November/December/January holidays in one hour, the answer is a resounding, “Oh hell yes.” I mean, seriously… I haven’t yet had the experience of turkey, football, and my mother’s outstanding cheesecake (And, yes, that last bit [...]
