Derek Shepherd Returning to Grey's Anatomy


Patrick Dempsey played Derek Shepherd in seasons one through eleven in the hit television show, Grey’s Anatomy. Patrick was married to Meredith Grey, and the two had three children together, Zola, Bailey, and Ellis. Derek and Meredith had an amazing love story that most people would dream to of had, the two met at a bar and then began to work together at what is now, Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital. Through the course (Diction) of the eleven seasons Derek showed his love to Meredith, their three children, and his work. All throughout the season’s viewers were intrigued in the unique love relationship with Derek and Meredith. Derek survived many traumatic events and was always there for Meredith when she needed someone. Derek also, was always persistent on his job, he would never take “no” as an answer. If there was an inoperable tumor, he would take the risk to operate on it. In season eleven however, the relationship between the two was not the same, they would both argue with each other and Derek decided to go Washington D.C. for a clinical trial he was working on (Noun Clause).
Viewers saw quite little of Derek throughout season eleven. Patrick’s relationship between cast mates was changing (Verb Tense) for the worse, and so was his behavior during filming. Patrick would arrive at set late most days, and would argue with the producers, and other cast mates. The cast was fed up with Patrick’s behavior, so they decided to cut him from the show without him even knowing. Opinions on why he was cut so suddenly are often quite different from what might have happened (Subject-Verb Agreement). On episode twenty-one of season eleven it was Derek’s last episode, he died from a car crash as he was saving people on the side of the road. Fans were devastated by the death of Derek, and mad at Shonda Rhimes the creator for making him die (Coordinating Ideas). Several fans do not understand why Shonda would cut off one of the main characters that fans grew such a large attachment to throughout eleven years. Grey’s Anatomy will never be the same, therefore Derek must come back on to make all the fans pleased again.
