Cristina Yang is Shonda’s best work. Honestly. I’ll even go as far as to say that she’s the best female character to ever appear in media. Cristina was strong, focused, and determined. She knew what she wanted and never let anything get in the way. Look where she is now! She played hard, but always knew how to have fun. Cristina was also an amazing friend. Such a true inspiration.
You’re correct. And this is the most heartbreaking goodbye, worse than Derek for me. It was a very well written ending sequence for Cristina imo. She was an amazing character and I quickly lost interest in the show after she left.
Even tho Cristina didn't die, this is one of the most heartbreaking goodbyes, just because it all seems normal, they dance it out, and then she goes, but Mer knows she'll never come back
@@adrictinaye i don’t blame her. she was on the show for 10 years, it took her forever to let go. but cristina will always be the most iconic character in greys.
And the hard part is she left at the perfect time. She left when truthfully this show should’ve ended. It was no hard feelings but in real life it was time for her to move on. In the show it was definitely time for her character to have big moves! Still want Christina yang back on tv though
+Emily Jayne Addison got her own series, Private Practice. Her story is over, so I don't see a reason why she would come back. She's happy, let her be.
Sandra Oh said that shes probably coming back for the eventual series finale though so we at least have that to hope for! im rly conflicted bc i dont want the show to end but then its like we'll get to see Christina on screen again when it does
season 8, owen to cristina “stop thinking that you're the sun, and that I revolve around you” season 10, cristina to meredith “he's very dreamy, but he is not the sun, you are” :)
When George died, I lived . When Lexie and Mark died, I was broken. When Derek died, I was genuinely heartbroken and I don't think it will recover fully. But, when Cristina left, I was truly empty. I didn't know how to feel. Emotions were too difficult to deal with. My face showed emotionless, but my eyes said heartbroken.
"Don't get on any little planes that can crash or stick your arm in a body cavity that has a bomb in it or offer your life to a gunman. Don't do that!" I love Cristina. She really cares about Meredith so much.
Greys Anatomy will forever go down in history as one of the greatest shows not only because of the story line but because they got the original cast characters just right
I love how genuine the friendship between Mer and Cristina is. No matter if they're together or not, you just feel that that will never change. I wish she could be here for her now. She could've used her when she lost Derek.
I started watching Grey's last year Netflix binging during a deep depression. It was literally besides my son, the only thing making me happy and the only thing I looked forward too.
Grey’s is my therapy during hard times too. I am a die hard fan! I own Grey’s Anatomy socks & hoping to get a sweatshirt for my birthday in a few weeks. I pray you are better since this was a while ago. It’s a powerful school.
I'm on season 9, and I refuse to watch on because I know Christina and Owen are going to break up, Derrick will die, and Christina Yang is going to leave.
I love how basically season 1-9 are referenced by Cristina. Dancing it out (1-4, 7, 9), tiny planes (8), hands in a body cavity (2), give life to gunman (6)... It brought this moment in full circle.
Cristina was a strong and brave character, she sacrificed everything good in her life (owen, friends) to achieve her dream, she was sad but she knew it was the right thing to do :(
4 days before I take my licensure exam, I went home and relaxed. My best friend was supposed to take it with me, we studied 5 years together plus reviewed for 5 months, and yet she decided not to take it due to some reasons that I truly understood. When I was home, she texted me and told me she had slipped a letter in the smallest pocket of my bag which i usually neglect. I read it and it made me cry. she said, "You're my person." we are both fans of Grey's Anatomy, only she loved it way before I started watching the show. This just makes me cry.
Meredith and Cristina the best Unforgettable memories with this chapter I cried a lot I go for season 12 and I still miss her I feel that the series did not return to do the same without her 0:59
a true friend is hard to find-if we can find one in our lifetime it is a really good thing. just remember finding a true friend is not always easy to find-they just happen to show up when you least expected. cherish that friend no matter what!
I cried more on the TwistedSisters goodbye than on the MerDer goodbye :') Guess this friendship is what really made me like the show so much and not MerDer
@saï Shonda already said this years ago. She said she wanted to portray a "love story" between two women. I'm glad she did cause you don't expect female characters to be like Cristina and Mer so that's why this show gained so much success. Honorable mentions: Addison, Izzie, Amelia and Maggie.
George O'malley, Izzie steven, Preston Burke, Lexie Grey, Mark Sloan, and now Christina Yang…. Seriously I need to get ready as someone will be gone again. It's getting harder and harder to watch. Poor meredith, she lost her person and owen, He didn't even get to hug her goodbye. This show never fail to brought me tear.
+Adam Czer And now Callie Torres. The only ppl that have been there since day 1 that are left are Meredith, Alex, Bailey, and Richard. And the only squad members left are Mer and Alex. No point in watching anymore. TT^TT
Awww...I hope you find one. It is possible. Mine left the country, but we're still there for each other. Not the same as having her close by though... 😏 xxx
I have this friend! We've been BEST friends for more than 25 yrs. We've worked together, watched each of us lose loved ones, been there through thick & thin. I couldn't live without her!
I cry every time I watch this. :'( I'm going to miss Cristina. Season 11 won't be the same without Cristina. I'm going to miss Cristina and Meredith friendship. :( :'(
When George O'Malley died, I thought I had to stop watching the show, but somehow I still made it even I missed him so much though. But it was not until Cristina Yang left that I realized how much she was meant to me. The only thing makes me feel relieved on her departure is that she is not dead. Up to now I still wanna think that she's out there and working on her 3D heart in her lab beneath the same sky with me. Sandra Oh's leaving the show gave me a hole in my heart. Grey's Anatomy can never truly be the same without her. And I never watch GA afterwards.
I'm heartbroken. Just finished season 10 eps 24 last night and I'm heartbroken. I love Christina Yang. SHe's the best character ever. I have never been hooked up to a drama series but her, being there in grey's was an exception.
it’s 6 years later and i still miss you cristina yang, once she left i kinda lost interest i honestly feel safe too say that cristina and merediths was one of the main parts of the show and after she left it went kinda eh i love greys anatomy but once she left it was kinda over for me i still watched it but it’s not the same :/
Christina & Meredith have the best friendship in this show. I love how they both are always there for each other and encourage each other to get what they wanted in their life. Truly an inspiration 💕
For such a long time, Billy and Ally goodbye scene in the court room was my top 1 saddest goodbyes on tv. But after watching this a few years ago, turned out this is the most heartbreaking...and i always go back on youtube to watch it.
Its amazing how we could grow so fond of character like Cristina Yang who was somewhat unsympathetic she wasnt warm, fuzzy and loveable but she was an extraordinary driven person. Her relationship with Meredith was at most "wicked and twisted" they werent hugging or getting all corny all the time and yet we love them together. Her departure was tough but she stayed in character until the very end choosing to move forward with her career and becoming a cardio-God like we knew she was meant to be since the start of the show, her story came full circle. Its a shame that the current Grey keeps trying to shove aweful corny characters like Maggie down our throats, SHE WILL NEVER be Cristina and neither will Amelia, I think Alex is the closest thing Meredith will have as her "person" but even then no one will ever filled the void left in her (and us viewers) by Dr. Cristina Yang.
