We showed you a sneak peek at the Grey's Anatomy upcoming season 8 premiere episode.

And now, we have some SPOILERIFIC photos for you to check out!

Looks like a lot is going down at Seattle Grace! For more stills from the episode, check out below!

Are U excited??

Ellen Pompeo was at a screening of The Help, hosted at Ronald Perelman's East Hampton estate this past Sunday, and was so moved by the film that "she came out of the screening in tears, and hid in the bushes crying, staying there until she could collect herself."

The movie must be really good, huh?

Either that or she just found out they've renewed her contract on Grey's Anatomy for another three years! Ha!

Too cute!

Check out the photos (below) of Ellen Pompeo going to a playground in NYC with her totally adorbs daughter Stella Luna.

Looks like it was a lovely afternoon for Ellen and her child.

Hope you two had fun!

Oh, and there might be more than one!

SPOILER ALERT! DON'T READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHO'S GETTING HITCHED ON GREY'S ANATOMY.

If you watched last night's musical episode of Grey's Anatomy, you know that Callie accepted Arizona's proposal of marriage after enduring a very trying and traumatic day. Well, expect to feast your eyes upon the lovely ladies' lesbian nuptials on May 5th - and don't expect it to be drama free!

According to sources, the wedding is going to be a nightmare for one of the brides as Callie has to deal with repercussions of her family's lack of acceptance of the union. For some twisty reason undivulged at the time, Hector Elizondo will be reprising his role as Callie's father for the occasion, but he won't be walking her down the aisle. The bearer of this bad news will be Callie's mother, Lucia Torres, played by Gina Gallego, who starts trouble for her daughter on arrival. Sara Ramirez explained to sources:

“What’s really beautiful about this episode is that there is a moment where Callie is really kind of doubting herself and her life and the choices that she’s made. To pick this person to be with for the rest of her life is not received well by her mother and that presents a real difficulty for her because I think she looks to her mother for some kind of emotional embracing around this whole event.”

Well, she might not get the love she wants from her mother, but she sure will get it from her co-workers, especially Mark Sloan (played by Eric Dane…Yum!) who Sara reveals ends up walking her dow the aisle as Dr. Miranda Bailey officiates.

But there is one more twist in the story that we feel inclined to mention. According to reports, two very significant characters were missing from the scene when the ladies shot their wedding - Meredith and Derek!

Could their absence of sign of big things to come for the show's main match? Could they possibly be getting hitched as well on the show! We'll just have to wait and see.

We didn't much care for last night's musical episode, but perhaps this big, emotional overload hour will make up for it.

Thoughts?

Maybe we should all see how tonight's episode goes before we give Shonda Rhimes the go-ahead for a round two, huh?

Tonight, Grey's Anatomy will venture into territory very few TV shows have before and even fewer have succeeded with - a musical episode. Sources caught up with the creator of the acclaimed drama to ask what to expect from the episode and if there was any hope for a second musical episode. Here's what we learned.

The episode has actually been in production "since September" between rehearsals, recording, and actually shooting the episode. Shonda reveals she was very surprised at the amount of musical talent she had on the show and if she had to go back and do it again, she would have put more pressure on those "claimed they couldn’t sing." On such person was Ellen Pomepo, who Shonda says has a real "pure and true" voice and whose character is going to go through a lot tonight. She explains:

"She’s been really tough this entire time about her own fertility issues. She’s been really stoic and strong and fairly positive about it. This is her weakest moment when she feels the randomness of the world."

No doubt her scenes will be powerful. Ellen always brings it.

So what about the future? Will there be another musical episode in season eight? Perhaps, since Shonda is already thinking about other musical numbers she would like to hear the cast perform. She added:

"I really want to see Ellen sing ["Portions For Foxes"] by Rilo Kiley, which was the very first song we ever had in the pilot. I’ve already been saying I want to do it again. It was really tough on everybody though. We’ve been working on the episode since September. Everything from rehearsals to recording, it was a really difficult episode. I don’t know if we’ll ever do it again, but I already want to."

Never say never, that's what we've and Justin Bieber have always said.

Are U all looking forward to tonight's episode of Grey's?

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING CLIP CONTAINS MAJOR, MAJOR, SPOILERS FOR NEXT WEEK'S EPISODE OF GREY'S ANATOMY. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW OR IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN LAST NIGHT'S GREY'S, DO NOT PROCEED!

What you are about to watch maybe very difficult to process for a Friday morning, but if your are a Grey's Anatomy fan, it will give you a clear understanding of how their hugely-hyped musical episode plans to play out.

Check out the video to watch the opening scene from next week's all-new, all-musical episode of Grey's (above)!

So ridiculously sad. Once again, Shonda Rhimes knows exactly how to pull at our heart strings.

Thoughts???

The more we see, the more we're convinced this might actually work.

We have for you here an EXCLUSIVE promo for Grey's Anatomy's upcoming musical episode.

Check out the video (above) to hear the cast and creator Shonda Rimes share their thoughts on this momentous musical event.

Thoughts?

Just when you think they've got nothing left up their sleeves, Shonda Rhimes does it again.

A new twist is coming to Seattle Grace in Feburary. For the first time, Grey's Anatomy will be taking a 24 approach and present an episode in real-time.

The episode's titled Golden Hour and will follow Ellen Pompeo's character Meredith Grey as she runs the E.R. during the first hour after a trauma. It's gonna be bloody. It's gonna be sad. It's gonna be great TV drama.

Ok, maybe not as great as watching Jack Bauer save the entire world in one hour, but it'll still be worth tuning in on Feb. 10th, we think.

Thoughts?
