<P> Entertainment Weekly wrote, "You're still pondering how Grey's can still be so damn good sometimes," further hugely praising the episode, "They did a bang - up job, it felt real in every way, thanks to some stellar performances and writing . And yet it maintained its Grey'sness thanks to some quieter moments, and plenty of witty exchanges to boot ." Regarding the Bailey - Mary - Charles sequence the site wrote, "the action felt so real", but added, "But the most intense action was culminating in the OR with Cristina, April and Meredith had a nice moment sitting on the ground together, April sniffling and Meredith stonefaced . Kevin McKidd did some stellar acting as he interacted with them ." Talking about Meredith's miscarriage he site added, "She saved Owen, though she did it while having a miscarriage--again, leave it to Grey's to make this the least dramatic, most underplayed storyline of the night . (Brilliantly so .)" </P> <P> Spoiler Junkie wrote highly of the episode Meredith Grey in particular saying, "In the most heart - wrenching moment of the entire two - hour season finale, Meredith bursts into the room, asking Clark to kill her . Eye for an eye, she says . She's Lexie's sister . She's like a daughter to Dr. Weber . She's the Chief's wife ." and noted that, "This was an amazing season finale, one of the best in the six seasons of Grey's Anatomy . The second hour of the Grey's Anatomy Season 6 season finale, Death and All His Friends, is even more intense than the first ." HitFix also lauded the episode and wrote, "In every sense, these two episodes where Shonda Rhimes, directors Stephen Cragg and Rob Corn, and the entire cast and crew of the show "Going For It". There was no opportunity for suspense, or tears, or anger, or horror, or some good old - fashioned monologuing left unexplored . Huge stakes, huge emotions, great performances from everybody Chandra Wilson and Sandra Oh were particularly great, as was Michael O'Neill as shooter Gary Clark . This was about as good as I've ever seen "Grey's ." Episodes like these are what I point to when anyone asks me why I'm still watching </P> <P> The site also lauded Ellen Pompeo's character stating, "Meredith would suffer a miscarriage in the middle of patching up Owen Hunt's bullet wound - and be so hard - core, just as her best friend was next door in risking death to save Meredith's man, that she would just keep working even as blood dripped down her legs . A moment like that works only if everyone involved is 100% committed to the insanity of it, and here everyone was . They all went for it and came up with a riveting two hours of TV . At the completion of the eleventh season Wired named the episode in its must watch list adding, "The show reaches its dramatic apex in a multi-episode arc about a deadly spree shooter who visits the hospital with a vendetta . The repercussions of this incident will echo through most of Season 7, and well into the future ." The site also called Pompeo's' Shoot Me . I'm Your Eye for an Eye .' the best scene from the entire series . </P>
