What would you like to see Carina do if it was up to you? I always felt dumping her on the PRT was a bit of a reach but it would have been an easy way, especially with the pandemic storyline, to add her to the main cast. I agree that character wise, Carina has always seemed really into being an OB so it would be a big change. I wish they’d just promoted her on Grey’s Anatomy and brought her on Station 19 for medically relevant episodes and character/relationship development but oh well.

Yeah, a promotion on Grey’s and then personal story time overlapping both shows, with Maya appearing on Grey’s as much as Carina appeared on Station 19 would be the way to go. But barring that, the show doesn’t seem to have the budget or inclination to do what I’d prefer, which is Carina getting as much screentime and story as Travis and Dean and Jack and the rest, so those pockets of their personal life that we see, that should be Andrew and her job. it’s tough to do that kind of juggling and I don’t think they really want to, just devoting a whole part of Station 19 to the Grey’s world and not in the context of the PRT like with the other doctors that guested.

Right now they’re treating Carina as an extension of Maya’s allocation of personal time and it’s obviously not enough for a whole character. You’d think combined they’d get more, even IF it were just shippy, let alone her own time, but…I dunno, maybe they had plans that got scrapped from covid, maybe they don’t have the resources to create both fire situations as well as obgyn situations. But it’s going to be a bummer if we finish 4a with hardly any of her.
