I get it from both sides, the actor that plays Alex wanted to move on with his life and he gave so much to greys, you never know what goes on behind the scenes and I'm sure shonda wasn't happy that he was done so maybe this was the best compromise they could come up with, I honestly wanted a goodbye between him and Meredith but maybe someday for the series finale him, izzie and Cristina will come back in some way and all meet up for lunch to catch up or something as a back to the start kind of send off
Right! And to have Jo thinking that he just left her, like how Izzy and many others have just left him, is awful. He was one of the last few original characters and for that to be his ending is stupid and disrespectful to his character.
When Katherine Heigel left thats when the series went downhill. Her acting and charisma was superb in the series. Sandra Oh was the only reason why I kept watching it after Katherine left. But seriously tho they need to end the series before they lose all the fans.
The only characters who got good closure were Christina and Burke. Greys has sucked since like season 9 when jo and her dumbass class entered the picture.
This show is getting worse... Like they’re destroying everything they did good (Japril, Jolex, Calzona etc) and they should just stop the damage all together and stop the show once and for all!!
They ruined japril.. agreed. But i think sara ramirez wanted to leave, same thing for justin chambers.. it's wasn't the writer's decision to write them off
T Maks It’s true but it’s not realistic for Alex to leave Jo behind when they got married not too long ago... I’d have found it more realistic if they killed him off rather than him leaving...
He promised to never leave her they've been through too much he loves her too much Alex almost risked it all for her (more than once i think) there is no way Alex just got up and said "I don't love her anymore" not to mention Alex karevs huge character development he would never just leave her even if he fell out of love with her
I would rather him end up being dead for weeks and finally found all hacked to pieces in the woods, than him just ghosting Jo...its not his character to do that
Exactly...that's what I said. He would never just ghost Jo and leave her hanging like that. Especially after all the times people have done that to him. He promised Jo he would never do that to her.
@@Ehhhaway I really doubt that happened. He's so in love with Jo, he wouldn't just up and leave her for Izzy. That wouldn't make any sense. Maybe he found out that he has what his mom has (schizophrenia) and decided to get himself help or something and didn't want to put Jo through that so he left? Either that or he'll be killed off.
Same. That’s what I’m thinking. Like his car veered off the road- although I’m not sure they’d do a car again Bc they did that w mcdreamy. It’s gonna suck no matter what.
Jessica Rodriguez I wonder if maybe that’s when the accident happened or whatever happened. The message he was texting never came through so maybe something occurred then. Surely the writers wouldn’t just say well he left and never came back. No reason no storyline no nothing. I sure hope not.
He would never leave Jo. I don't care if they kill him off or not Im literally not watching the show anymore. I'll probably just watch the very last episode
I don't blame you. Christina leaving was one thing, but when Derek died, I stopped watching. It's not the same Grey's Anatomy as it used to be for years now I wish they would end it already.
First of all...I did not know he was 50 years old with 5 kids. He does NOT look 50. Secondly, I had a feeling that he was leaving the show when I noticed how many weeks they kept saying he was visiting his mom and not showing him on the show and Jo kept calling him and not getting an answer. Alex would NEVER just abruptly leave Jo like that in the dark. So I knew the whole visiting his mom thing was just a cover until they were ready to announce he was leaving the show. But my thing is...why every time somebody leave this show they always do it so abruptly and have to get killed off in tragic way. Please don't kill Alex Karev off the show and make Jo a young widow. She's just getting over her childhood abandonment trauma after finding out that her mom left her at a fire station as a baby because she was born as the result of her mother being raped. So please don't kill Alex Karev! 😭
Ari Baker no.. the show was on hiatus to us, they were filming the second half of the season. the show runners knew before he released a statement.. legally he has to make them aware.
@kat lover Right! That's exactly what I was saying. I hate to see him leave the show and especially get killed off. But I don't want them to make it that he just ghosted Jo either. So it's a catch 22 situation. Cause either way this interview with him confirms he's gone. ✌😏😞
ladybuggs11 if it means that it’s the only way they can finish his story without completely assassinating his character development then yeah, I would rather he dies! There is no possible way he would EVER just up and leave Jo, nor even Meredith, so him dying is the only option they’re left with! The show should’ve ended seasons ago anyway !!
I would rather see him dead then leave Jo!!! After what happened between him and Izzy and her just leaving him. I could never see him doing that to someone else!!!
I'd rather him be dead at this point. It's not believable at all that he would abandon not only Jo, but Meredith. I think it was quite 💩ty of the actor to abruptly leave a show (and fans) that has given him so much over the years without finishing the season out and allowing the writers to come up with a decent ending for his character.
I am glad he is doing what is best for him, he gave us the best 16(?) years, and I appreciate Justin so much for giving it his all... but I highly agree with you. I wish he had maybe done two or three more episodes solely focused on him explaining what happened on his way to Iowa or something just so they could have at least eased him off.
Yeah i love the man but I just feel he didnt consider our feelings in the matter like yes we not saying that you shouldnt move on to greater things but the least you could have done was allow for a good send off .
@@aliyadarrow6443 ah shut the hell up.. He said nothing about his mental health he said he was ready to move on to greater opportunities outside of Greys anatomy.. Stop trying to Make me out to be this selfish person.. Hell wrong with you.. I simply said what I said from a fan point of view.. Finish what you started strong.. Ent nothing more nothing less.. Stupes don't come to me bout mental health I'll finish you..
I’m hoping that he didn’t leave her especially since he promised he wouldn’t leave her, supported her, fought for her, loved her... why are they making him seem like all that hard work, that evaluation that he went through get washed away and make him seem like the same frat boy he was in the beginning? Goodness, hope that they don’t do that. He wouldn’t leave Jo, Meredith and the kids, Webber and Bailey without saying goodbye. Maybe he’s missing. Maybe there was an accident. Maybe he used his mom as a cover to work in NY with Arizona, maybe they found his car and was a victim Of a carjacking or had a stroke or... Maybe... maybe... maybe... I just hope that the writers don’t give him an ending that would undo the Alex the doctor, surgeon, the friend, the husband and most importantly, the man that he became....
Yes! Am agree with you. He deserves a good final, or maybe he found izzie his first real love and he decided to stay with her. In my opinion this one would be a good final but not for JO.
Hannah Stites I agree. I hope they give him an ending worthy of his character. He was one of my favorites! He gave the show edge and comic relief! For them to just simply write him out and say oh he just left and never came back would be ridiculous.
I think hes gonna be written in to have been suffering from the same illness as his mother idk that would be the only reason I could see him being written off
Lauren Hibbitts ohh! This is something to think about.... I never thought of that possibility. Hmm. Interesting. I wonder if as a surprise that he'll come back for a final show and have Jo, Meredith, Bailey and Webber be there for his diagnosis and set have him up with proper care in Iowa near his Mom... hmm. Something to think about. Thank you.
Jackie Klugman I keep thinking that he’s either already dead or in a coma somewhere in an unknown hospital. I don’t want to believe that Alex actually left Jo
After 16 seasons of being my favorite show this episode will be the last I watch, I always told myself if Justin leaves I'm not watching anymore his character was my all time favorite and these past episodes without him hasn't felt right.
Lauren Aleman you are right! The whole show just seemed really off and lack luster without him. I think his leaving is the biggest loss to date. This is even worse than Christina leaving and Derrick dying. Especially if they have no real storyline behind it. They can’t just say oh he left and never came back!
I wanna see George, Izzie, Alex, Christina and Mer all together in that hospital for one last time. Like seriously, if everyone get to have one birthday wish coming true, that’ll be mine! McDreamy joining that scene will make Grey’s Anatomy the best show ever☺️
潘思堯 well George can’t he’s dead. And they won’t do alternate ending for the original cast it would only make it worse. Tbh they should kill of Alex because that’s the only way to prove this show isn’t complete trash now. They have done terrible at writing off the original cast. It’s one death after another and one move after another they have not gotten creative since berk left.
I haven't watched since Derek died. Though for me the show went down hill after mark and Lexi. I stuck it out til Derek and that was my final straw. Personal opinion I think this show really needs to end. It's time.
I'm exactly the same as you stopping with Derek's last show. I only ever watched the shows after the plain crash once. I still rewatch the old ones and stop 2 episodes before the crash. I never cared one bit about any new characters brought in just before or after the plain crash.
@@Mavmode Agreed it's best to keep it that way. I'm rewatching again on series 3 at the moment ,it really was a great show and used to have a nice mix of episodes. Series 1-8 is Grey's for me.
Alex gets back with Izzie. Jo gets with Link. Ameila gets back with Hunt. Teddy gets back with Tom. Catherine and Richard stay together. Avery gets back with Maggie. Meredith finally gets out of her own way and gets with Hayes. And all in regular fashion all of the interns get with each other, then all die from the coronavirus. You're welcome. Mystery solved.
We want Cristina Yang, Alex Karev, Isobel Stevens, Arizona, Callie Torres back, (since they were still alive in the storyline). Pls bring them backkkkkkk! Grey’s anatomy forever.❤️
Probably because Bokhee isn’t a main member - the actor actually helps with making the show more ‘medically accurate’ and that’s how the character came about in cameos at first and then became a staple
Brittney B. Williams or Bailey or Webber or Meredith. Hopefully it’s going to be something that won’t undo his growth as the doctor, the surgeon, the friend, the colleague, the husband and most importantly, the man that he became. I hope that it’s something that will be realistic and respectful to his character.
They could show that he met with a bad accident and needed a plastic surgery replacing him with someone else🤷♀️....I don’t know, anything to keep the character alive, I would hate to see Jo heart broken!
I hope that hopefully his character would end up like Christina where they still talk about him and he still is in contact with the others. Seriously why do you have to put jo through something else horrible.
If I am not given the “clarity” they guarantee, and Karev just Dips out on Jo, I will be saying goodbye for good. He has grown far too much to just pull an Izzy.
I really enjoyed this episode with all the flash backs. Alex and Izzy have belonged together since the beginning. It was inevitable that they ended his story the way they did. It’s much better then killing him off. Jo was also pushing him away when she was having a break down and ignoring him forever and pushed him away. He deserved his happy ending with Izzy.
Me at first: Alex would never do that. He would never leave Jo don’t do that to his character he has come so far After the new trailer: please let him have left Jo. I don’t want him to be dead please!
My hope is that he is suffering a mental issue, which leaves room for him to come back if Justin Chambers ever wants to come back. We know that Alex’s mom was schizophrenic and his brother had a psychotic break.
@@yourenotmysupervisor9311 his brother was actually a diagnosed schizophrenic too, so this would really make sense. alex could have been dealing with symptoms know one knew about and he just didn't want to put jo through that.
CrusaderHuggles that is how I hope they conclude his story because it leaves the possibility for a return. Knowing this show, they will either undo all the character development Alex has gone through by having him simply leave his wife, job, and friends, or they will kill him off.
People change their mind all the time. He had a change of heart and chose his children. At least he’s happy now. Having said that, this heart ripped my heart out and fed it to me
For me, Kepner has the best exit. Coz nobody has to die. She didn't left anyone behind. I mean there's no tears. The last episode of Season 14 was filled with joyful event. She left happy.. It's different from most season finale of Greys that ends tragically..
izzy safed her eggs with alex to have the chance to become a mam.. she used them aldx found out and now he wants to be a father to his kids thats why he leaves
Honestly, I think Karev deserves to go out like George. His growth throughout the show and his willingness to fight for the people he cares about shows that it would actually be quite fitting if he died trying to save someone. Even if they don’t keep his identity a secret like they did with O’Malley, it’ll still be quite emotional because of how far he’s come.
It would be something if she actually gave birth to the embryos and he wanted to be in their lives. But I have a feeling his story might end tragically. I think this show is definitely about to end.
I hope after 15 yrs n his character evolved in such a great way thar his send off is not that of a dead beat h7sbamd who abandins his wife, friends n careee. He deserves better than that.v
First time in a while that i cried watching greys. I think the ending makes sense. He didn't want his kids to have the same upbringing that he had. He always loved Izzy, probably loved Jo more but Izzy had his kids and gave him the chance to have the family he has dreamed of. Izzy is still selfish and self centred but Alex made the only decision he could live with.
I don't mean to sound rude or irreverent about this, but--- if y'all would just QUIT WATCHING, the ratings will drop, and Shonda will have to pull the plug. Then, we wouldn't keep having to see actors leave forcing the shitiest writing to DESTROY their characters!!!!! It's a hard decision, trust me. But the shitty writing ends the second WE stop providing the pencil. (terrible shot at a metaphor but you get it)
Ok we have the shonda kills off all the characters joke. And Sorry but I’d rather have Karev be in an accident than the he left jo bullshit. That was SO unbelievable
The last episode of the series would be amazing if they brought everyone back (Arizona, April, Callie, and even Izzie) and then at the end Meredith gets killed off somehow causing her to talk to mark, Lexie, George, and Derek.
@kat lover For example here: (if the link doesn't work, just google "justin chambers mental health) pagesix.com/2020/01/10/justin-chambers-working-on-mental-health-amid-greys-anatomy-exit/
This is random but didn’t Alex mention that Izzy was married with three kids?? The only way she would have gotten pregnant was by her frozen eggs that were fertilized by ALEX!!! Due to the cancer and then asking Alex to fertilize them if she were to ever want kids in the future. They said the treatment would kill her eggs so how did she have children....maybe Izzy let him know that her three children are actually his and he went to meet them and decided he couldn’t leave them. Very far fetched but I’m hoping he didn’t just leave for no reason
Still in tears since finding out about this😭😭😭😭 .My favorite character as always been Alex Karev. They best not do us dirty cause I will not survive it .they have broken my heart too much as it is 💔💔💔💔😢😢
Alex could've just faded away to Pac North and like Christina, stayed in touch by text messages. And in the last episode it sounded like Richard's character will be next to go.
He should have a happy ending and not be forced to be with Jo if he doesn’t want to. 👌🏽 Wouldn’t be a good ending for him if he stayed where he didn’t want to be.
I miss fun GA... this season is sooo sad, boring and just off. Seriously, Im only watching clips on youtube, we need balance between drama and comedy, hapiness and dark times...thats life!
everyone's saying how heartbreaking it is for jo and it is but what about mer? they've been through a LOT in 15 years, her kids call him "uncle alex" he's the closest thing to a brother that mer has ever had. this is heartbreaking.
Even if he died or left or whatever happened . It’s still annoying that we won’t have an end with him like all the other caractère . A good bye to Joe or Meredith , a danse , a quote . He left and we didn’t know it was the last time we saw him. It’s like George
We’ve had some really good characters come in when the og cast started to leave. Arizona, Callie, Mark, Lexie, Maggie etc. We will miss Alex. No doubt. But I am glad he’s moving on. Thank you, Alex❤️
Plot twist: he randomly ran into Izzie and they reconnected. I don't know if I hate it or think it would be ok. I just really don't want him killed off.
I wonder if they might claim the Alex found out that Izzie used her fertilized eggs and he has a kid. That could make him leave. He would never be an absent dad.
Honestly I think Shonda should end the show at this point.. like I literally can’t watch this show without Alex... I’m just so sad! Doesn’t make any sense
This is hurting me so much 💔😭 I have no words on how painful this is. After all this years, I just can’t. 💔 And Meredith said last time that she cannot lose Alex as well. So they better have a good storyline for his exit than him just leaving Jo. He’s too in love with her, he wouldn’t do to Jo what Izzy did to him.
My brain exploded at the « As I turn 50 » 50 ?????? How ? HOW ? Also, ending this show would be a real challenge. It almost seems like it is so alive that it can’t end.
I know it was Justin's choice to kind of leave abruptly but I dont believe Shonda couldnt have worked on him to give an appropriate send off for his character instead of some half assed storyline weeks later. I feel like with this set up the only ending to not ruin his character is to kill him. Anything other would be a disservice to the entire series and everything hes been through. And if they try to pull he has a mental illiness like his mom and siblings I call BS. It's not common to develop symptoms in your 40s, in fact studies have shown that's when many people's symptoms start naturally regressing on their symptoms and severity of disease. And while I don't believe hed ghost Jo, I KNOW he wouldn't ghost Mer. Come on Shonda, at least do his leaving some service vs recent OG cast members like Derrick, Callie, and Arizona. I mean I was shocked they even bothered with an ending for Callie it was so nonchalantly done.
I remember first seeing Justin on the movie the wedding planner with Jennifer Lopez and every time I see him I think of the song he sang in the movie. Gonna miss him.❤️ he finally walk down that street of Laredo
After the character development Karev had on this show, he didn't deserve this. we as fans don't deserve this. Period.
Jhil 😭😭
He chose to leave
He left on his own he had they had to hurry up and rush a episode?
PERIOODDDDD
I get it from both sides, the actor that plays Alex wanted to move on with his life and he gave so much to greys, you never know what goes on behind the scenes and I'm sure shonda wasn't happy that he was done so maybe this was the best compromise they could come up with, I honestly wanted a goodbye between him and Meredith but maybe someday for the series finale him, izzie and Cristina will come back in some way and all meet up for lunch to catch up or something as a back to the start kind of send off
I prefer them killing him off than him abandoning Jo. He grew so much throughout the show just to give him a shitty ending? lazy writing.
Agreed!!
jvzzle EXACTLY
Right! And to have Jo thinking that he just left her, like how Izzy and many others have just left him, is awful. He was one of the last few original characters and for that to be his ending is stupid and disrespectful to his character.
I thought the same thing why would he leave Jo when he's been left before... It doesn't make any sense
Remember the fertilized eggs with Izzy? Maybe he finds out she brought one or more to term and leaves to be a dad?
Unless he dies a hero's death and saves half of Seattle I won't accept it
Preach!
Yesss
well I’m just gonna sit here and think about how this comment aged.
This show should have ended when they killed Derek. Anything after that just became a soap opera. What a bummer.
True

@@ljsugna6124no she was cringe as hell I was glad she left
I honestly think it’s unfair that he doesn’t get a good send off like other characters have had.

At least this way if he ever would to gust star in a episode in the future he can

Exactly...that's what I said. He would never just ghost Jo and leave her hanging like that. Especially after all the times people have done that to him. He promised Jo he would never do that to her.

Jessica Rodriguez maybe that was when he had his accident? Typing, eyes off the road...
He texted richard a few episodes ago when he was already gone
or pinko wha did he say to Richard? I don’t remember Richard saying he got a text. I’m so confused lol

tbh this show should’ve ended when Cristina left .
Yessss I agree!!!
tbh there still making millions from it, so ending it when she left would have been stupid actors move on
No way. I'm personally glad she left and that she is no longer even shown. Bye bye
He would never leave Jo. I don't care if they kill him off or not Im literally not watching the show anymore. I'll probably just watch the very last episode

Lauren Aleman you are right! The whole show just seemed really off and lack luster without him. I think his leaving is the biggest loss to date. This is even worse than Christina leaving and Derrick dying. Especially if they have no real storyline behind it. They can’t just say oh he left and never came back!
Alex Karev Forever
I feel the same way about it. He was my favourite.
Same! He was my favorite!
That’s a little dramatic. To just stop watching your favorite show. Even it doesn’t feel right, wouldn’t you wanna see what it ends to?
Shonda Rhimes needs to chill the f out. Just cuz the show is coming to an end doesn’t mean Alex should have left Jo 😤🤬
Shes Not on thé writers team anymore, there's a New b***h in charge and Shes destroying everything and evryone in GA
He left on his own.
Shonda has nothing to do with the show and hasn't in a long time, the ignorance jumped out
I don't think he left Jo , I think they are going to kill him off !
He quit. He wanted to pursue other roles/jobs.
I wanna see George, Izzie, Alex, Christina and Mer all together in that hospital for one last time. Like seriously, if everyone get to have one birthday wish coming true, that’ll be mine! McDreamy joining that scene will make Grey’s Anatomy the best show ever☺️
潘思堯 I want a ‘What if O’Malley never died...’
Aliyah Norman and izzie never really left
潘思堯 well George can’t he’s dead. And they won’t do alternate ending for the original cast it would only make it worse. Tbh they should kill of Alex because that’s the only way to prove this show isn’t complete trash now. They have done terrible at writing off the original cast. It’s one death after another and one move after another they have not gotten creative since berk left.
@@aliyahnorman761 ouuuuuuh inttteresting idea 👀👀👀
Alex would never do to Jo what Izzie did to him. This is literally the worst write out ever even above Derek!
I hope they bring back christina yang...
Sandra oh said she wouldn’t come back because she’s done with the character and has moved on (killing eve, awesome show btw)
Sandra said nope
technically, there is 4 still on the show Mer, Bailey, Richars, and, all our favorite character... BOKHEE!!
Yes our girl bokhee our OG
Jeff Cairns the scrub nurse
Who doesn't love Bokhee
I haven't watched since Derek died. Though for me the show went down hill after mark and Lexi. I stuck it out til Derek and that was my final straw. Personal opinion I think this show really needs to end. It's time.
I'm exactly the same as you stopping with Derek's last show.
I only ever watched the shows after the plain crash once.
I still rewatch the old ones and stop 2 episodes before the crash. I never cared one bit about any new characters brought in just before or after the plain crash.
@@sarahjane4813 me too! I've watched repeatedly until end of season 8 then I lost interest. The show was just too dark after that.
@@Mavmode Agreed it's best to keep it that way.
I'm rewatching again on series 3 at the moment ,it really was a great show and used to have a nice mix of episodes. Series 1-8 is Grey's for me.
Alex gets back with Izzie. Jo gets with Link. Ameila gets back with Hunt. Teddy gets back with Tom. Catherine and Richard stay together. Avery gets back with Maggie. Meredith finally gets out of her own way and gets with Hayes. And all in regular fashion all of the interns get with each other, then all die from the coronavirus. You're welcome. Mystery solved.
Melissa 🤣🤣🤣
😂🤣😂
We want Cristina Yang, Alex Karev, Isobel Stevens, Arizona, Callie Torres back, (since they were still alive in the storyline). Pls bring them backkkkkkk!
Grey’s anatomy forever.❤️
I dont think anyone really wants izzy back after all this time
Cruella De Vil i want lol
and april
How could they forget Bokhee, another Grey's Anatomy original still on the show?!
Natalie Edelstein i was gonna comment this. Like i love bokhee
Probably because Bokhee isn’t a main member - the actor actually helps with making the show more ‘medically accurate’ and that’s how the character came about in cameos at first and then became a staple
He can’t ghost Jo, he would never!
Brittney B. Williams or Bailey or Webber or Meredith. Hopefully it’s going to be something that won’t undo his growth as the doctor, the surgeon, the friend, the colleague, the husband and most importantly, the man that he became. I hope that it’s something that will be realistic and respectful to his character.
They could show that he met with a bad accident and needed a plastic surgery replacing him with someone else🤷♀️....I don’t know, anything to keep the character alive, I would hate to see Jo heart broken!
TheVirtuous20 Brilliant idea! 👏
I said this on twitter, he’s leaving jo just like Izzie left him.
I want Yang Back
I hope that hopefully his character would end up like Christina where they still talk about him and he still is in contact with the others. Seriously why do you have to put jo through something else horrible.
If I am not given the “clarity” they guarantee, and Karev just Dips out on Jo, I will be saying goodbye for good. He has grown far too much to just pull an Izzy.
i think for the final episode they need to try and bring everyone back, even the people who died, that would be a perfect ending most definitely
I honestly don't think that 1 episode is enough. I'd love to have like a mini season (6-10 eps) and each episode brings back 1-2 old characters.
Seeeannn and it’s needs to be 2 hours.
After everything Jo and Alex went through there's NO way he'd walk away from jo!!
I really enjoyed this episode with all the flash backs. Alex and Izzy have belonged together since the beginning. It was inevitable that they ended his story the way they did. It’s much better then killing him off. Jo was also pushing him away when she was having a break down and ignoring him forever and pushed him away. He deserved his happy ending with Izzy.
Me at first: Alex would never do that. He would never leave Jo don’t do that to his character he has come so far
After the new trailer: please let him have left Jo. I don’t want him to be dead please!
Right😭
My hope is that he is suffering a mental issue, which leaves room for him to come back if Justin Chambers ever wants to come back. We know that Alex’s mom was schizophrenic and his brother had a psychotic break.
@@yourenotmysupervisor9311 his brother was actually a diagnosed schizophrenic too, so this would really make sense. alex could have been dealing with symptoms know one knew about and he just didn't want to put jo through that.
CrusaderHuggles that is how I hope they conclude his story because it leaves the possibility for a return. Knowing this show, they will either undo all the character development Alex has gone through by having him simply leave his wife, job, and friends, or they will kill him off.
I rather him dead they to just abandoned his wife!!! It would be to out of character for him to just abandon Jo!!!!
He is 50 wow he's hot
My journey after Zainne for real tho
People change their mind all the time. He had a change of heart and chose his children. At least he’s happy now. Having said that, this heart ripped my heart out and fed it to me
For me, Kepner has the best exit. Coz nobody has to die. She didn't left anyone behind. I mean there's no tears. The last episode of Season 14 was filled with joyful event.
She left happy.. It's different from most season finale of Greys that ends tragically..
I can’t, Alex can’t leave I love him to much
Yesssssss please bring back some older characters. I miss them :(
Yess Izzie or Cristina
Yesssssssss
Lanise Powell a lot of them have done other shows . They don’t want to be on the never ending story.
The problem is that Derek, Geroge and Lexie are dead😭
And after the way Katherine Heigle left the show & pissed off Shonda, there’s no way she will be back!
I was already crying when i saw the first second of the pilot episode, that´s when I knew the tragedy was coming 😥😪😭😭
izzy safed her eggs with alex to have the chance to become a mam.. she used them aldx found out and now he wants to be a father to his kids thats why he leaves
Don't do a George O'Malley
I swear to god!
It's already confirmed he dies off screen. Not sure how they're gonna handle that or how they're gonna reveal it.
@@somepersonlol4t34 ugh I hope not. But we will see. Like Ellen said they will probably be ending the show soon anyway.
Honestly, I think Karev deserves to go out like George. His growth throughout the show and his willingness to fight for the people he cares about shows that it would actually be quite fitting if he died trying to save someone. Even if they don’t keep his identity a secret like they did with O’Malley, it’ll still be quite emotional because of how far he’s come.
He went back to Izzy lol
It would be something if she actually gave birth to the embryos and he wanted to be in their lives. But I have a feeling his story might end tragically. I think this show is definitely about to end.
Holy shit!!
I cried a lot when I first watched this episode, after that, I was mad because it seemed unbelievable he would do this in the first place
Him that handsome man is 50 God blesses him good
I hope after 15 yrs n his character evolved in such a great way thar his send off is not that of a dead beat h7sbamd who abandins his wife, friends n careee. He deserves better than that.v
Jacque's Town I would personally rather see him killed off than to become the one thing he always thought he would be but never wanted to be!
Wait..hes 50?! He looks GOOD
He's with Izzie
I hate when they get rid of the best character
What if he left because he started noticing he was getting symptoms of schizophrenia like his mom?
First time in a while that i cried watching greys. I think the ending makes sense. He didn't want his kids to have the same upbringing that he had. He always loved Izzy, probably loved Jo more but Izzy had his kids and gave him the chance to have the family he has dreamed of. Izzy is still selfish and self centred but Alex made the only decision he could live with.
Alex love Jo so much. His exit is very out of character.
I don't mean to sound rude or irreverent about this, but--- if y'all would just QUIT WATCHING, the ratings will drop, and Shonda will have to pull the plug. Then, we wouldn't keep having to see actors leave forcing the shitiest writing to DESTROY their characters!!!!!
It's a hard decision, trust me. But the shitty writing ends the second WE stop providing the pencil. (terrible shot at a metaphor but you get it)
They should say he was driving and crashed his car when was about to text jo when the “...” happened in the texts to jo in like episode 9 or 20
Next season it's gonna be the end... why he didn't wait??? Just one more season :(
I already miss him.
PLEASE, PLEASE do not give up on the show. Greys Anatomy is one of the few shows remaining that is worth watching.
Hes 50?!?! 😳
Ok we have the shonda kills off all the characters joke. And Sorry but I’d rather have Karev be in an accident than the he left jo bullshit. That was SO unbelievable
At this point, they could kill off Meredith! 🥺 why are they doing this to all the OGs!
The last episode of the series would be amazing if they brought everyone back (Arizona, April, Callie, and even Izzie) and then at the end Meredith gets killed off somehow causing her to talk to mark, Lexie, George, and Derek.
Y’all have you thought for a second Alex and Izzy found each other?
I have !!!
No nooo, I don’t want my Karev to become a cheater! Anything but a cheater!!
😳😱😱😱😱 Jennifer Anniston, “Nooooooooooooo”
Yees Please
That would be awesome also.
I think is about mental health... maybe he check himself in a hospital
That would be pretty meta since Justin Chambers was rumoured to have checked in in a mental health clinic.
@kat lover
For example here: (if the link doesn't work, just google "justin chambers mental health) pagesix.com/2020/01/10/justin-chambers-working-on-mental-health-amid-greys-anatomy-exit/
This is random but didn’t Alex mention that Izzy was married with three kids?? The only way she would have gotten pregnant was by her frozen eggs that were fertilized by ALEX!!! Due to the cancer and then asking Alex to fertilize them if she were to ever want kids in the future. They said the treatment would kill her eggs so how did she have children....maybe Izzy let him know that her three children are actually his and he went to meet them and decided he couldn’t leave them. Very far fetched but I’m hoping he didn’t just leave for no reason
I've been with this show since I was 6 years old till now, it's gonna be hard to say good-bye....sigh
Still in tears since finding out about this😭😭😭😭 .My favorite character as always been Alex Karev. They best not do us dirty cause I will not survive it .they have broken my heart too much as it is 💔💔💔💔😢😢
Alex could've just faded away to Pac North and like Christina, stayed in touch by text messages. And in the last episode it sounded like Richard's character will be next to go.
He should have a happy ending and not be forced to be with Jo if he doesn’t want to. 👌🏽 Wouldn’t be a good ending for him if he stayed where he didn’t want to be.
I like to think Alex went to find Izzy.,
Haven’t watched yet but I think I will cry
Guys BIGGEST PLOT TWIST ALEX MET IZZY AND THEY LEFT TOGETHER! Yes please!! 😭❤️❤️
I miss fun GA... this season is sooo sad, boring and just off. Seriously, Im only watching clips on youtube, we need balance between drama and comedy, hapiness and dark times...thats life!
i miss when it had more drama and relationships and fun stuff
everyone's saying how heartbreaking it is for jo and it is but what about mer? they've been through a LOT in 15 years, her kids call him "uncle alex" he's the closest thing to a brother that mer has ever had. this is heartbreaking.
watching this show and falling in love with all of the characters is the reason why i want to become a pediatric surgeon
Okay actually in tears rn
I love Alex,his relationship with mer is beautiful
Love watching greys anatomy. Gonna miss Alex he and jo haven't been married that long. Gonna miss him.
Alex is the only reason i kept watching after Cristina left
Ooh I’m watching the episode now- omg he is with Izzie it just said- but idk what they are doing yet
Even if he died or left or whatever happened . It’s still annoying that we won’t have an end with him like all the other caractère . A good bye to Joe or Meredith , a danse , a quote . He left and we didn’t know it was the last time we saw him. It’s like George
We’ve had some really good characters come in when the og cast started to leave.
Arizona, Callie, Mark, Lexie, Maggie etc.
We will miss Alex. No doubt. But I am glad he’s moving on. Thank you, Alex❤️
It doesn’t make sense about his leaving
I’m not ready 🤯😭😭
Is “AF” really necessary?
Bring back April that would make me feel a little better about Alex!
Plot twist: he randomly ran into Izzie and they reconnected. I don't know if I hate it or think it would be ok. I just really don't want him killed off.
This makes me so mad and sad at the same time 💔😭 it will not be the same without Karev and I'm actually glad they are ending the series at this point.
I wonder if they might claim the Alex found out that Izzie used her fertilized eggs and he has a kid. That could make him leave. He would never be an absent dad.
I'm not ready😭💔
Honestly I think Shonda should end the show at this point.. like I literally can’t watch this show without Alex... I’m just so sad! Doesn’t make any sense
This is hurting me so much 💔😭 I have no words on how painful this is. After all this years, I just can’t. 💔 And Meredith said last time that she cannot lose Alex as well. So they better have a good storyline for his exit than him just leaving Jo. He’s too in love with her, he wouldn’t do to Jo what Izzy did to him.
My brain exploded at the « As I turn 50 »
50 ?????? How ? HOW ?
Also, ending this show would be a real challenge. It almost seems like it is so alive that it can’t end.
I know it was Justin's choice to kind of leave abruptly but I dont believe Shonda couldnt have worked on him to give an appropriate send off for his character instead of some half assed storyline weeks later. I feel like with this set up the only ending to not ruin his character is to kill him. Anything other would be a disservice to the entire series and everything hes been through. And if they try to pull he has a mental illiness like his mom and siblings I call BS. It's not common to develop symptoms in your 40s, in fact studies have shown that's when many people's symptoms start naturally regressing on their symptoms and severity of disease. And while I don't believe hed ghost Jo, I KNOW he wouldn't ghost Mer. Come on Shonda, at least do his leaving some service vs recent OG cast members like Derrick, Callie, and Arizona. I mean I was shocked they even bothered with an ending for Callie it was so nonchalantly done.
i cried way too much seeing the trailer
I remember first seeing Justin on the movie the wedding planner with Jennifer Lopez and every time I see him I think of the song he sang in the movie. Gonna miss him.❤️ he finally walk down that street of Laredo
Karev will be forever missed on the show
