Alex says goodbye to everyone, including Jo, with a letter.
Life is unfair, and so is this characters death.
But fans just didnt buy it.
Unfortunately, Chambers has ruled out the possibility of a return for the time being.
That chapter is closed for now, he said, before adding, Thank you forever,Shonda Rhimes.
Admittedly,a return from Alex Karev would be a little messy right now, especially for Jo.
A high-intensity medical drama which follows Meredith Grey and the team of doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial, who are faced with life-or-death decisions on a daily basis. They seek comfort from one another, and, at times, more than just friendship. Together they discover that neither medicine nor relationships can be defined in black and white.
The pair are even expecting a baby together!
Alex’s return would turn their worlds completely upside down.
He doesnt need to rekindle things with Jo, but he does need to apologize and explain everything.
He owes her that.
He also deserves a proper goodbye to Meredith.
Its what fans need.
They seek comfort from one another, and, at times, more than just friendship.
Together they discover that neither medicine nor relationships can be defined in black and white.
