Our Season 12 hopes for Callie, Arizona and the other women of “Grey’s Anatomy”

To say that Season 11 of Grey’s Anatomy was intense would be an understatement. Calzona made the difficult decision to divorce, despite the anguished cries of their lesbian and bisexual fanbase. Meredith learned she had a another secret sister. April lost a baby and then herself, and sort of joined the Army. Oh, and DEREK FUCKING SHEPHERD DIED. And we thought losing Cristina was tragic enough.

This season, will Shonda Rhimes, benevolent television overlord of our hearts, make us cry a million tears into our couch cushions? Probably, but Grey’s star Ellen Pompeo also promises this season will “have a little bit of a lighter tone this year.” Thank Jeebus. Look, it’s even in the key art!

We do also know, straight from Shonda at this year’s TCA, that Callie and Arizona will both be dating other women. Is it possible that one of these new ladies will steal our hearts, or will we continue to pine away for a Calzona reunion? Only time will tell. Here’s hoping that both characters continue to grow an develop as they did last season. Arizona’s (Jessica Capshaw) storyline with Dr. Hermann (the amazing Geena Davis) brought a depth to that character we hadn’t seen before.

We asked Grey’s fans on Twitter to tell us your hopes for Season 12, and it’s no surprise most of it had to do with Callie and Arizona. Some of you are excited and cautiously optimistic, while others are still feeling stung by last year’s heartbreaks.

What are your hopes for Season 12?
