Unpopular Opinion: Pallie/Cenny

On the first watch of the show, i really hated Callie and Penny and their relationship. I thought Callie and arizona should’ve stayed together and then i hated the way Callie tried to take Sophia away from Arizona completely. And I couldn’t stand Penny for being the one who let Derek die. But on my second, maybe 3rd watch of this part of the show (i usually only rewatch up until christina leaves) I actually really like them. I think their relationship is a lot healthier than Callie’s other relationships and I do think Callie is half the problem because she never leaves once she realizes she’s incompatible with someone which screws everybody over in the long run. And I always thought Arizona was toxic and selfish for the cheating and the emotional abuse during acclimation to her amputation. But now I’m realizing she’s still not the best person even if none of that happened. And I can’t even begin to tell you how big of a tool I think Derek is; I’m honestly a little glad he died because he was literally walking all over everybody in that hospital. And the strife he caused Meredith just because he couldn’t let anyone else shine made me viscerally angry.

All this to say: I really wish we could’ve had a spin-off of Callie and Penny in New York at their new hospital and seeing Sophia occasionally the way we see Zola. they were the original grey babies and i love them equally. I think Callie and Penny are so cute and gay and they understand each other and solve issues quickly with communication. It probably would’ve had to include Sara’s transition as a plot line but that’s a cool thing to navigate that we don’t see often in TV. Idk would you guys hate that? What else would happen in the spin off
