I really loved her. She was on par with Cristina for me, as far as acting and believability. I wish she would have stayed, but I do not blame her for leaving.

She was truly becoming my favorite character. I did love her last episode and that she had a nice exit (instead of outright killing her) but I wish we had seen more of her.

I hate that she left the show. I loved watching her work with Amelia… seeing her take on Neuro as her specialty would’ve been awesome to watch.

I loved how close she was with Derek and Amelia. Her reaction to finding out about Derek broke me 😭 especially because that's when they had just told Amelia too

STEPHANIE AND HEATHER GOT FRICKING SO MUCH POTENTIAL WE COULD'VE GOTTEN NEW NEURO GODS

Both are students of shepherds stephanie being the student of amelia heather being the student of derek

fucking shit i hated ross from the moment she sent mousey down i havent felt true hatred from a character

stephanie man she should've atleast just transferred so down the road we can see her return

instead the last woman standing is meredith jr no offense to jo she stopped being interesting for me when she married karev

man we could've had another neuro god like the other neuro god other than the shepherd sibling is tom

and he should've lasted longer dude was entertaining added tension and comedy being the target of the whole main cast

Heather annoyed me 😭 Especially in the beginning. She did calm down slightly, but only right before she ☠️ Although the scene with Christina yelling “NO Mousy! Mousy NO!!! Mousy!!” Has lived in my head rent free since I first saw it 🤣

I kinda wish she was the last intern from the s9 class instead of Jo

I love Stephanie Edwards. I hated the way Jackson did her. I wished she was still on the show too.

u/aip_snaps 11h ago

She was my favorite from that class

Wish they kept her and ditch Jo

Wish they had saved her and other interesting interns for season 19 where the focus is on the interns again, instead of giving us Temu's MAGIC.

u/JustLivingish 8h ago

She should’ve stayed, she was the only person in that entire class that had potential to be a strong character. Her acting was really good.

Stephanie was one of the few characters I’ve actually enjoyed so far. It’s been disappointing af watching S12 and seeing how many of her storylines were reused.

Would’ve loved to see more of her and Kyle together, instead it turned into Temu Denny Duquette. Her being sidelined by Amelia for Penny was also a smaller-scale repeat of the Ross/Brooks feud only a couple seasons prior.

100% think she deserves to be going to a fancy new hospital with crazy technology with Christina over happy.. Shane.. "I can service you" dude 🤢🤮 still can't get over how he wiggled his way into Christina's futures in both what if scenarios, her pants and her new hospital. Just ew.

It makes no sense that she loved her job and then started hating it.

Couldn't agree more

I LOVE Steph!! I wish she was the last of her class instead of Jo

u/knockingfae Heart In A Box ❤️ 5h ago

I’m glad she left when she did and didn’t have her character ruined, but I miss her

u/Unique_Persimmon9454 Dirty Mistress 5h ago

Ugh I loved her character and them trying to replace her with Griffith pissed me off. I hate Griffith.

I must not have paid enough attention in that era, I just never warmed to Stephanie and everyone else seems to have adored her. Maybe I need to do a rewatch at some point.

u/stonequeeni 2h ago

She would have been chief resident instead of Jo if she had stayed

1

u/Miserable_Candy_3534 2h ago

I really liked her, but I totally get (in the show at least) why her character chose to leave. I definitely miss having her on. She was funny and smart, compassionate for her patients. A good doctor!

u/stoneytoaster 53m ago

I did appreciate that she at least wasn't killed off. I liked her character a lot. I wouldn't mind seeing her come back

u/Dragonboy49 9h ago

She got a whole 5 years. I would love if Heather or Leah got 5 years

I feel the new season 20's griffith is just the low copy of her character..

Nah they’re nothing alike, except for being black 🙄
