Train crash, dw. Do y'all have trains out there?

Yeah, but there's nowhere in the city limits I can think of where that combination of things could happen, except maybe by the stadiums. And why would they send these people to Grace when Harborview is a better choice? Harborview doesn't have the hot-interns-killing-patients problem.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that's the name of a real hospital? That seems like it would be a mistake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be fake -- and so far wikipedia and google back me up.

Well, if it's fake, then you just have to know the whole show is taking place in Fake!Seattle.

Although I'm still rolling my eyes about some of the geographical liberties taken on Spencer For Hire. At least Grey's Anatomy doesn't include lots of impossible car chases.

Though I did read they're messing up their stock footage -- some is Kingdome, and some is post-Kingdome.

They film somewhere in Chatsworth.

I'll only accept Fake!Seattle if I have a higher paying job there where I don't work for asshats.

Grace is an amalgam of two buildings in Seattle -- the external shots are of the Liquor Control Board warehouse on Marginal Way, the chopper pad is in top of Fisher Plaza (where the ABC affiliate is based). They're two miles apart.

I'm sure there is a dw character played by some nice deserving actor who is doing very well.

Nah, not really.

They're two miles apart.

Has the show ever established where the hospital is?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Did they say anything about Toby?

They showed him watching Will's press briefing. There were many, many press questions about him but were answered with "on-going investigation-cakes." Or something to that effect.

What is another name for Christmas lights that doesn't involve a Christian holiday?
