    Thats normal life.?! Media fucks up the pre-perceived stereotype. Which stifles important Conversations amongst women of different backgrounds you coming to the conversation assuming that a black or Latin person would be angry about your question then stuff doesn’t get talked about why black or latin person comes into a conversation assuming that a white person won’t empathize because that’s what we seen on TV. this should be a regular conversation. No pre-perceived standards every conversation should be brand new. I don’t think this should HAVE TO BE SAID... so sad smh

    The show (Grey’s anatomy) did not need Darrick, the character was just nice hair. Watching Ellen’s character grow with and without her characters husband was an amazing rollercoaster. The show was incredible and believe me I don’t see it going well without Ellen and the characters lost in the 15th season.

    Kayleigh Sky no Derek added a lot to the show. I stopped watching the show after he died but not because I believe a male lead is necessary to keep the shoe running. The show started going downhill after season 8 imo, it was the most fun the first 6 seasons. When amazing female characters like Cristina, Izzie, Addison, Lexie, and Callie started leaving the show it lost a lot of the humor and when amazing make characters like Derek and Mark left the show it lost a lot of humor and romance. It’s unfair for Patrick to be paid more than Ellen since her character is the focus of the serie but that doesn’t mean he has to be objectified as ‘just nice hair’ because that’s not fair and his character was amazing and added a lot to the show

    Honestly Tarajii was probably talking about Person of Interest. I believe she was alluding to that show about being miserable and rightly so because the show is amazing but I could always tell in interviews she wasn't fully there for it. But I really loved her character on the show, it just sucked that she and the behind the scenes creators were not getting along.
