It is almost time for sweeps

by AmyD

Sweeps months are November, February and May. These are the months that networks and shows go all out to grab the biggest ratings possible. They then use these ratings numbers to set advertising rates for the show. It’s all about the benjamins, people. Anyway, I’m looking forward to a month of supersized, all out ratings stunts on many shows. Each week on Grey’s is huge as it is, so I can’t wait to see what show creator/ Exec Producer/Writer Shonda Rimes has cooking for us.

To tide you over until Thursday, the official preview for this week, according to TV Guide is:
Derek receives a surprise visit from his sister (Embeth Davidtz); Cristina scrubs in for a rare procedure, to the envy of her peers; Addison and George treat a pregnant woman with an unusual problem; and Alex ponders his future in medicine.
