Grey's Anatomy, "Brave New World": It rubs the lotion on its skin

Spoilers for last night's "Grey's Anatomy" coming up just as soon as I investigate some local customs...

An almost entirely comic episode of "Grey's Anatomy" -- and one that, for the most part, is as funny as it thinks it is? Can they still do that?

A very fine light episode, particularly the interludes in Dermatology and George's reaction to the kid's reaction to seeing the face-off patient. In a conversation with my friend Rich Heldenfels, he complained that the Callie/Erica story was a little cheap -- that a trained doctor wouldn't be that baffled about going "below the equator" -- and while I can see his point, Bailey's lecture was very funny.

I also thought the writers have done a good job with the new phase of the Mer/McDreamy relationship, particularly with Derek reconciling his work and personal lives and making sure Izzie and Karev understand the difference.

What did everybody else think?
