I wonder if the use of Hallelujah montages on tv shows is listed in wikipedia? (If not it TOTALLY should be.)

Still thinking about Grey's. That scene between Christina and Mere was really excellent. . . and possibly fodder for fanfic.

I think that George must be recurring only next year and Preston must be gone.

Was Lexy the woman that chatted up Derek at Joe's?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Yeah, she was.

How did ER end? I've been trying to find some information but no such luck.

There was some kind of disaster releif montage to Hallelujah, I think Katrina but I can't remember which news show it was.

So she is attracted to Derek AND George? Huh.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The GA finale was possibly one of the most depressing season finales ever.

If, at the end of next season, someone loses their fiance whilst wearing a formal dress, I'll quit watching. STG.

Okay, somebody needs to put a bug in Jeff Buckley's ear that if he doesn't stop licensing that damn song, he's going to permanently alienate his audience.

(The others, too, but his version is the worst offender.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Neela was at an anti-war protest. Tony showed up, too, and was pushing through the crowd to get to her. There were some counter-protesters, there were some shots fired (the camera angles made it look like it might have been the cops who fired, but I don't think we saw that for certain), and everyone started running. Neela fell down and got trampled by the rest of the crowd and Tony kept trying to get to her.

There was some kind of disaster releif montage to Hallelujah, I think Katrina but I can't remember which news show it was.

There was one that they showed endlessly on VH-1 for the few days after 9/11.

What happened to the other guy, the cute hip doctor who liked her as well?

According to wikipedia Hallelujah has been in the following tv shows but it doesn't describe how it was used, I'm assuming musical montages for most:

Holby City, House, M.D., Falcon Beach, The L Word, The O.C. (twice by Jeff Buckley, once by Imogen Heap), Hollyoaks, The West Wing, Scrubs, Without a Trace, Cold Case, Criminal Minds, ER, The Shield, Nip/Tuck, Crossing Jordan, Drama and Nicole, Rescue Me, LAX, and Numb3rs. It was also used in the Third Watch and Without a Trace episodes dealing with the 9/11 events. "Hallelujah" was played at the closing of NBC's Dateline on April 17, 2007, covering the Virginia Tech massacre.
