Say It Isn’t So Derek Shepard Can’t Be Gone

Last night Grey's Anatomy left everyone with their mouths hanging wide open. There is no way they could let Derek McDreamy Shepard die! He and Meredith are what the show is built on!

The show's entirety has focused on the ups and downs of Derek and Meredith. Now what happens? Writer and creator Shonda Rh

imes gave some insight to "Entertainment Weekly." He really is gone!

“Derek Shepherd is and will always be an incredibly important character—for Meredith, for me and for the fans. I absolutely never imagined saying goodbye to our ‘McDreamy.’ Patrick Dempsey’s performance shaped Derek in a way that I know we both hope became a meaningful example—happy, sad, romantic, painful and always true—of what young women should demand from modern love. His loss will be felt by all. Now, Meredith and the entire Grey’s Anatomy family are about to enter uncharted territory as we head into this new chapter of her life. The possibilities for what may come are endless. As Ellis Grey would say: the carousel never stops turning.”

 

I understand we can watch the struggles Meredith will face and how her life will change, but I don't like the fact that MereDere are not together anymore. Is Meredith just like her mother Ellis and never going to end up happy?
