"Our goal is to make people feel"
WELL YOU'VE ACHIEVED THAT GOAL ELLEN. MULTIPLE TIMES. I'm in so much pain.
Laura Kortokrax OMG SAME SHE’S THE BEST AT MAKING PEOPLE FEEL THINGS
this made me laugh sm 😂 (meanwhile i’m getting traumatic flashbacks to sobbing for hours on end bc of grey’s)
"I could never carry the show, let's not get crazy!" that and the whole part where she talked about Patrick leaving etc wasn't even shade, she's stating FACTS ! She deserves so much respect even if you're not a fan bc she has carried this show for 14 seasons, that's INSANE! Love her!
Elijah Dimitrijević she us the grey in Grey's anatomy. haven't we always assumed she was the star? Esp after her sister died. The only other grey.
Fr tho. She could never carry the show by herself
@@sophiatucker04 Trust me, she could if she wanted to.
I hate abc so much bc of how they don’t recognize the fact that there wouldn’t be greys anatomy without Ellen Pompeo . They honestly just seem so shitty and a horrible network to work for
A host who actually asks interesting questions? Hell yes 🙌🏼
interesting to who? dim wits?
"itchy robot".... so about when did you drop the "b"?
You're so right. Not just trying to get funny stories or views in a channel by playing games. Real interview. Not many people like him around, at least not people who get the spotlight.
And he's also funny.
Exactly! at 0:28, I loved how he connected the "children" part to her reason of appearance i.e the 300th episode!
I can only hope that when Ellen decides that it's time to leave Grey's, Shonda has enough respect to end the show. Ellen ABSOLUTLEY carries this show.
I think Meredith does 40%, the patients make the 30% and the other characters 30%, I watch this show for Amelia and the sisters scenes and April... and I know theres alot of people who dont even like Meredith, but watch for Japril or other characters and the stories.
but yeah, it would be weird to watch without Meredith, not impossible though ... and Ellen is a producer / director too, so I dont think she will just leave. In fact now that I see this, I think Ellen never wanted the love interest so fast, so she probably had alot to do with the fact that Riggs left with Megan
The whole show is around Meredith and her friends. Without Meredith there is no grey's anatomy. Period.
i read a while ago maybe a year that shonda has already stated when ellen pompeo is ready to leave the show will end you can probably find it somewhere so yeah. I think it definetely will
Lubbylove89 Shonda has talked about this and how if either she or Ellen are ready to leave/end it, then that is what they will do. Otherwise until it’s canceled I think they’re gonna play it through
ellen: i can’t believe everyone’s not sick of me already
*girl i’ll never get sick of you* 🥺💕
I love her bringing up how quick Riggs came in haha
It was probably about Scott Elrod's William Thorpe though
is Riggs leaving
Yes, Riggs left
DC Infinity not even Riggs tho honestly I think she meant Thorpe. I think Riggs was actually important for Meredith to actually, truly move forward with life after derek
One thing I really love about Grey's is actually that the characters never leave completely. There are very many TV shows that have main characters leave or die and they never mention them again whereas in Grey's they get back to events, they mention Cristina and Derek and Izzie and George, Mark or Lexie. Yes, these actors did leave the show but their characters never did which is really refreshing to see.
OMG the shade about that love interest and Patrick Dempsey leaving was epic !
But I feel like that isn't shade? She just seems very proud of her own acting skills and she clearly believes that the show and her acting deserve more.
I love that Ellen was truthful about how everyone felt when Patrick left. It did suck and it took me a while to go back to the show. Honestly, Ellen is the only reason I stick with it because my 2 other favorites, who were also Mer’s favorites, left and I hated it so much.
Seth, you just made my day with this partial interview with Ellen Pompeo, could you please upload the whole interview?
Honestly one of the best interviews I've seen they were both so respectful of each other. He asked all the right questions! Meyers has my respect
Ugh I started watching this in 2009 and its been soo long😭💙 I love all of them like family
I literally teared up when she said Patrick's name
Honestly the quality of the show plummeted after Sandra oh's departure. We still get some fantastic episodes every now and then but overall it's just not at that level anymore. Although I no longer enjoy Grey's like I used to, I still can't bring myself to quit watching it. It's like staying in a toxic relationship only because you are too emotionally involved in it.
i still enjoy it and love it and idk if you know this but christina yang is supposedly coming back soon so maybe that can cheer you up
Nida Mapari I think you just have to find new things to love. Foot the first 10 seasons the relationship between Meredith and Cristina was addicting. But now there’s new things to love. Meredith has become much more open and has built a community instead of being biased to just Cristina and Derek. Instead of being Cristina’s person and Derek’s soulmate, she’s now every ones right hand man. I think that’s awesome.
exactly i stopped though at around season 10 i didn't get to derek's death but i know it happens and other stuff and now im rewatching it and its such a mindblowing feeling...all that nostalgia and u realize that literally everyone leaves or dies
I think near the end of season 14 it picked up again good
I was really sad when Cristina left the show...but now when I see Sandra doing so well with ' killing eve' ...she deserves to be the central character and not just supporting actor...... Ellen is a great actor too but Sandra is just Sandra
I can’t agree with Seth when he said, “I don’t think a show can successfully succeed for 14 season unless it did change,” because I’d still be watching Friends like 500 episodes later if it stayed the same 😂
but that was A COMEDY SHOW, Greys Anatomy is drama, and Im sure "Friends" actually changed, not the cast but the character change and evolve... If Greys was about Meredith and Derek fighting or being on and off 14 seasons, people would be bored at the end
Ellen Pompeo is definitely connected with her character “Meredith” & that is the reason why ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ is going strong 15 seasons later, this is my absolute favorite show. I’ve lost track of how many times I have watched it in between seasons just so I can carry the storyline where it was left off.
“They never kill the producer”
*has flashbacks to season 6 of Supernatural*
Xx_JustMe_xX lol
Xx_JustMe_xX everything always comes back to Supernatural.😎
I’ve learnt more from Greys Anatomy than my Med school. Thank You Dr. Meredith 😍
danial tahir then you went to an extremely bad med school.
Saeed, meet hyperbole, hyperbole, Saeed, I think you guys don't know each other.
Hadia Saeed hahah I didn’t mean that literally, but at least I went to Med school. 🤨
danial tahir you probably didn’t
This dude literally just wanted to tell people he went to med school
At this point, I love this show, but I’m hate watching it in a way. By season 7/8, I felt like I basically committed my life to the show so I have to follow through, and yet every year I’m waiting for it to end, and every year there’s a new season. I’m slowly dying along with the show. 💀
Kat J omgosh same. I should have stopped with Izzy and George, because I almost didn't make it with Christina then Derek 😣😣
mer is a unique character in.television/film and is played so beautifully by Pompeo. she is as grey and imperfect as they come, I.e. so normal which is what makes her so relatable
we could never get sick of meredith grey😻
i was in fifth grade when this show started and i am working now.. i took pre med bec of you Grey. Hahaha.
She is a great actress and she is a normal humble person too who happens to have talent ,beauty and grace , that's why we love her and the show is well made as well .. they are stretching it that's how it is when a show is successful but if it works it works why fight it ! nice interview you are a really impressive interviewer Seth .
During this interview I think she’s gonna get a page and tell Seth she has to check on a patient and run off
I don’t ever think I’ll get tired of watching Grey’s Anatomy, I can’t imagine life without it 👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was really sad when Cristina left the show...but now when I see Sandra doing so well with ' killing eve' ...she deserves to be the central character and not just supporting actor...... Ellen is a great actor too but Sandra is just Sandra
She’s so gracious, candid, and business-minded. That she’s using her influence to set a positive example and encourage change is really great
I love that she assumed everyone who isn't sick of her is drinking tequila. hahahahaha
I just want Meredith to be happy and not be hurt anymore and Alex to get everything he wants
I cried my eyes out from the last episode, so well written for the followers!
“Connective tissue”. I️ see what you did there. 😏
I’m still SO FREAKING MAD AND IM CRYING BECAUSE DEREK LEFT WHYYYY WHYYY WHY COULDNT IT BE A HAPPY ENDING with their kids
I think she is one of the best actresses!! I cannot even count how many times she’s made me cry!! Brilliant!
Mc Dreamy's death was complete bullcrap.
"They never kill off the producer." Patrick and Sandra was not interested on the show anymore.
They wanted to leave! Patrick didnt end well with the producers nor the cast for what it seems, and after 4 seasons Sandra´s has NO INTENTIONS of coming back, not even one episode when Derek died or some big episode... its their choice, what can Shonda actually do?
She's so real in this interview !!
Oh hell, I hope this show never ends
I've seen the series like 5 times. I could never imagine my life without this show on it. MEREDITH has gone through so much that I feel my life problems are such a babies problems.. I just love you Ellen
Who wants to name their best Grey's moments? Mine is when Meredith chooses not to go with Derek to Washington DC and the Cristina Owen Teddy triangle.
I am angry at Shonda for killing of Derek💔
Derek's death was definitely not easy to watch and I'm still devastated and sad and upset til this day that he's gone but I also think that Meredith didnt need a love interest literally like right after her husband died. I think Ellen is right about that bc she CAN carry the show on her own. Meredith doesn't need a man to function. Also, the show is literally called GREYS anatomy and she plays Meredith GREY and I think no matter what happens in the show, the real fans will continue to watch
Literally, actors are supposed to give us feels and the actors of this show do it perfectly. I cry every week.
seth is awesome we need more guys like him
omg can't believe it's been 8 years since I started watching it！my fav show!
I WILL NEVER BE SICK OF U ELLEN
The fact that the producers didn’t think the show would go on after Patrick Dempsey Ik the ratings did go down a bit but like we having a season 17 I think they should’ve had more faith that without a male star the show would still go on to me it was great watching Meredith being single yet accomplishing so much proving she didn’t need a man and she could do awesome alone
This was actually a great interview
Her character is just badass! I love her honesty & I relate to Meredith.
Ellen.. ill NEVER get sick of Greys!
Oh my gosh I will never get sick of Ellen’s character😂 Gotta love Meredith! She’s one of the only television characters that actually feels real to me. I love Greys so much!❤️
Ellen Pompeo is a great actress 👍
She killed it in "Life of the Party"
I love her
"They never kill off the producer."
Yeah they just kill off everyone we love and break us.
No one could ever play Meredith as beautifully as Ellen Pompeo has. In every single episode you can see the character development deepen. Meredith changes every single episode and that’s what is so damn beautiful.
This is a really, really good interview! Ellen is such an incredible actor & human being, and Grey's Anatomy is just EVERYTHING. Best show ever tbh here's to another 300 episodes!!!
LIES!!!! ELLEN CAN TOTALLY CARRY THE SHOW!👏🏼👏🏼 she is the best part of greys.
Seth Meyers you are making our world a cooler place! Bright spot in the dark Trumpian dystopia.
It’s such a good show with all the ups and downs
Who would be sick of her ughh never love Ellen!!❤️ aka mer👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻
Ellen threw so much shade at Patrick leaving and Martin being brought in as Meredith's new love interest
smileyfan16 lol she’s really pushing it...I won’t be surprised if shonda kills her off her own show, doesn’t take much to piss her off 😂...Though pompeo is right, Riggs was a boring rushed character.
Judi Gemini she not pushing it wtf r u saying??? And Shonda said that when Ellen is done, the show is over, everyone knows that
Aria Lewis are you illiterate?if you read my comment then you’d know wtf I’m saying...and last time I checked the show belongs to Shonda not Ellen, at the end of the day whatever promises she made to naive people like you won’t change that fact, furthermore if there were no ratings there’d be no show & shonda wouldnt be wasting her time. Ellen doesn’t dictate the show dumbass.
Judi Gemini say whatever u want, I'm just stating facts. And as for being illiterate, I'm very educated and my parents are very very rich, I get top grades in every test in school. And your really easy to trigger
Aria Lewis yeah, I do get easily triggered by idiots who can’t even tell the difference btn you’re & your. But luckily, you have your very very make-believe rich mommy & daddy to buffer you from your own asininity.
I’ll never get sick of you Meredith
I hope it will never end i live for greys anatomy
Let me just say this; Mer has always been a big part of my life. She brings out my emotions whenever I don't want to feel or I just need a bit of a push to feel. I still remember the episode where she had to go for therapy, it was my favourite part because the doc would call out on her bullshit and make her feel. Mer has and will always be part of my life even after Grey's anatomy has ended.
Side note, I hope Ellen continues to be part of shondaland and gets to play another main character. 💜
i swear this show will go on until ellen is 85 and i’m here for it
I could never get sick of you Ellen 😭😭😫
awesome questions on seth's part. really enjoyable to watch
The evolution of it is what’s so relatable to us, I feel. But this is coming from a person that has just made it to the third season.
there’s a very few instances where i cry over tv shows/scenes.. all of those were from grey’s anatomy
We love you Ellen!!!!we are definitely NOT sick of you
Hey Ellen I pay attention My mom and I just started watching the whole over again and I love it
Ellen is just perfect
I LOVE her so much! 😍💖
wow the shade! ELLEN POMPEO DOES CARRY THE SHOW
ellens giggle is so cute 🥺
Literally never going to get sick of Greys or Ellen.
I.love.her.
“Maybe they’re all drinking tequila and not paying attention.” Is she wrong? 😂
Yes, Dempsey hurted and the wound needed to heal but I still really like the show now especialy the episode of last night. Like that Arrow is doing that now too with Stephen Amell. What I mean evolving makes the show exactly more fun and you stay interested if you do it the right way.
I will be watching no matter how many seasons there are.
Still love Grey’s. Miss some characters. But still watching.
I love this woman
“I want to make people feel” well I had it spoiled for me by a video on TH-cam, but I started bawling like a baby in my bed. The first time I watched all the episodes I just liked him, but then I had a dumb crush on Patrick Dempsey.
I feel like Ellen carries the show like if she leaves like the show is dead to me😂😂
I was sick of Grey's Anatomy after season 10 or 11. Whenever Sandra Oh left but before McDreamy died.
Richard O sad to say but Derek’s death made the show munch better again
Same!!
It's been really good this season. Feels a lot like old greys !!
Richard O oh my god I was exactly the same way. I stopped before Derek’s death but I knew he died
Richard O you are sick of her im obsessed so shhh!!!
Ellen actually hadn't done 300 episodes of Grey's at the time of the show's 300th episode. Meredith wasn't seen or heard in episode 16 of season 13. It was only Jesse Williams and Sarah Drew.
I need Callie, Arizona & April back already! Season 15 hasn’t even started yet lol
‘They never kill off the producer’ supernatural did lmao
Oh THANK GOD SHE TALKED ABOUT HOW QUICK RIGGS CAME IN. Meredith is a strong and independent woman, she doesn’t need a boyfriend at all times to make her great.
She literally fucking perfect
Can someone please tell me why they aren’t coming out with the 9 episode until January 18😭😭😭
Trust me Ellen I can’t drink yet and no I’m not drunk and whenever something happens to Meredith I always scream so freaking loud like NUUUUUU or Oh MA GUDDD DID THIS ACTUALLY JUST HAPPENED?! WAIT WHAT DID HE JUST..WHA OMGGGGGG. Ps I Love your voice I don’t know what it is about I just LOVE ITT!
Oh and 😂 You DONT know how many -13 kids are watching greys anatomy 😂 I’m 14,
Don’t comment on my age 😂
I love her so much
Greys should take a 20 year leap where their children join the work place
It's good to see her re using her Halloween drapes like that.
The show evolves with time.that's why it lasted this long!
Adorei essa série
I love her!!!
I liked the part where he said "successfully succeed"
I got sick of them when Yang left.
IKR
aw babie shes so cute
If I die before this show ends I'll be real happy
Ellen is so cool!
