Some Grey's Anatomy Questions Answered

TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello answered a couple of – relatively minor, but still relevant – questions regarding Grey’s Anatomy in his last installment of Ask Ausiello.

When asked what the “major” kiss from the season finale was supposed to be, Ausiello responded that it was most likely the big MerDer smooch at the end. Though as most of us concluded: that was hardly unexpected. I love MerDer as much as the next person, but it was all a little disappointing after all of the kissing hype.

Ausiello was also asked about the number of episodes Grey’s Anatomy would tally up next season. According to his sources the total will be around 24 episodes for season five. The person that asked the question said there was a Patrick Dempsey interview in which he said there would be 30–34 episodes. Has anyone seen that interview? Send it my way if you do. I’ve not come across it yet. Regardless, I doubt very much it will be anything in the 30s range, as nice as that would be. Ausiello’s 24 sounds far more likely.
