I love alternate history and thinking about "what could've been", but man it really didn't work in this case...
It's an interesting idea, and it could have worked if it was a part of some "It's a Wonderful Life" type plot. Maybe Meredith could have wished to have a different life because she has a bad day, she wakes up in this alternate reality, and eventually wishes to return.
As it is however, it's a worthless filler episode. Nothing in this episode has an effect on the rest of the series, and according to the synopsis it was literally all a dream.... so it was a complete waste of time.

I'm a late-comer to the series. Just started watching it this year. I had some free time to kill tonight and wanted to watch an episode but wasn't in the mood for the usual angst. This was great.
It hit the "what-if" spot that I have occasionally well up inside of me too. There was something very satisfying about the fate aspect of this episode. If you want something a little different from the normal style but still enjoyable... this was the episode for you.

Doesn't add anything as it's a dream. Not watched to the end.
Funny haircuts and glasses. Everyone is weird. Especially Baily
Probably Meredith's dream.
Need to get this to 6 hundred characters so will add the has some dead people in too. Probably need to add something else to get the trquisite number of characters so will try to balance with something positive.
Karev's glasses make him look nerdy (deliberately)
Still over two hundred characters needed but now it's taken me longer to write this than I spent time watching.
Addison is still married to Derek I think. Not sure as I had lost interest by that point.
Phew 200 met.
