Grey’s Anatomy

Mark Sloan , the chesty credit card surgeon whose death expose more than a few hearts in the hit aesculapian dramaGrey ’s Anatomy , was not the purest of mortal . But he did have a marrow and despite his many gaping drawback , he left a live impression on fans as a great founding father and an even good surgeon .

persuasion on McSteamy have always been middling polarised . He is either know or hat but he can hardly be dismissed . Frombashing his amorous entanglement with Lexie Greyto thinking that he actually help his good protagonist by sleep with his married woman and even calling him out for step his status at work , Redditors have a lot to say about this gorgeous hunk who died way too soon .

At Best Tolerable & At Worst Hated

The overwhelming judgement aboutMark is that he can be toxicbut at the end of the daylight his softer emotions and character ontogeny override his flaws . But regrettably , not all buff are throw by the plastic surgeon .

allot tothis Redditor , from being misogynous to being prostrate to crossing bound , Mark was just someone suitable of being put on a pedestal , pretty human face or not . In fact , the fan find that Mark would have been whop more had he not been salutary - looking . He is thus at best adequate and at spoiled deserves hate instead of idolisation .

The BestGrey’sCharacter

In verbatim dividing line to the previous point , here is a buff who thinks that Mark is , in fact , the bestGrey’scharacter . Now , while McSteamy   is doubtlessly loved , it might be goinga shade too far to judge him the easily - ever fictional character .

Mark Sloan is beloved for the intense sexual urge appealingness and charisma the actor imbued the use with . Buthe was still deep flawed , treacherous , and immature . Suffice it to say that he was , like every otherGrey’scharacter , made flesh and blood through the layers in his personality . But to consider him the best theatrical role in the series might be middling unpopular .

The Best Chief

Now , here is another controversial point of position . Seattle Grace / Grey Sloan Memorial has meet a series of Chiefs over the years and all of them have had their own personalities . While some would consider Richard the expert Chief , others would be carve up in their opinion over Owen or Bailey , and even Alex .

However , fan will withdraw thatMark was master for all of one dayand although only a minority would match , he was n’t half bad ! From call up up Beef with a Chief where the Dr. could play any complaints they had to the Chief and talk over it over lunch , to encouraging his attendings , Mark was kind of a fun Chief and thisfan actually considers him the good of the lot .

Did Sloan’s Death Deserve More Attention Than Those Of Others?

Mark Sloan ’s tragic last left very few juiceless eyesat the beginning of time of year 9 . Many beloved to think that he wanted to reunite with Lexie in the afterlife and in a sad   but beautiful mode , that offer devotee some solace . But there are those who find that Mark ’s expiry did n’t necessarily deserve as much care as it did , at least not compared to the death of George O’Malley or Derek Shepherd .

Of course , Shonda Rhimes is an expert at creating split - jerking place and all the major character deaths in the series so far have evoked corking sadness among spectator , irrespective of whether or not the persona were do it . But Mark ’s farewell was well - opine - out and there was perhaps   more aid to point than those of some others , andthis Redditor wonders , why him .

Mark Saved Derek From An Unhappy Marriage

In a very unpopular opinion , this fan believes that Mark actually did Derek a favorby sleep with his married woman . One need n’t cue fan that it was Mark ’s betrayal of his best friend that had set up the premise for the entire show in the first place , and very few people at the time would have rooted for Mark .

However , this Redditor feels that Derek ’s human relationship with Addison would have been doomed anyway and the two would have been in a loveless marriage had it not been for Mark . So efficaciously , Mark had save Derek by have an matter with Addison .

Mark Abused His Power

Mark Sloan might be one of those fiber that went from being hated to loved in the matter of a few seasons , but not everybody was on board with loving him .

For example , in a rather moody perspective that raised some controversial points , this fan thinks that Mark Sloan abused his office every now and then . From his kinship with the nursemaid and the drug reps to his arrogant handling of Izzie Stevens when she was on his service , and the way he coerce April to sleep with Jackson , Mark ’s behavior at the workplace was largely inexcusableand should have been call out instead of being passed over casually .

Mark & Lexie Felt Weird

Another hugely unpopular ruling states thatMark and Lexie ’s pairing felt foreign . Since ' Slexie ' has gone down inGrey’shistory as one of the most dear and tragic romantic duos , often put high than even Meredith and Derek , this would most by all odds count   as controversial .

The   couple somehow   did n’t sit right withthis devotee and with a couple of others on this train of thought , get them to wonder as to why they were so very venerate in the first post .

Mark & Addison Should Have Been Endgame

For all those who adore Mark and Lexie and desire they are bickering it out together in the afterlife , here isa fan who thinks Addison would have been endgame with Mark instead .

Of of course , it was Addison who wreak Mark to Seattle in the first placeand sports fan will fondly recall Derek ’s thunderous fist that came down on McSteamy when he came to Seattle Grace for the first sentence and immediately begin flirt with Meredith . While Mark was said to have been in love with Addison , the writers never followed up on that and rather pair him with young Lexie . But there are those who still prefer him with the gorgeous Addison .

…As Should Have Been Mark & Callie

Another non - Slexie opinion suggest thatMark and Callie should have ended up together romanticallyrather than just stay friends . Of course , their kinship was one of the leading non - romantic straight relationship on the show , with Meredith and Alex being another , and that is rarefied on popular television to this day .

But dreams cost nothing andthere are lover who wish that the two best friends had been a couplein the romanticistic sense . It would have made mother wit since they already had a fry together and they bonk and endure each other truly and altruistically .

Mark & Jackson Were Secret Lovers

And in a very interesting view that actually offers food for thought for thought , here isa fan who is florid that Mark Sloan and Jackson Avery were lovers , although why they would necessitate to keep it a secret is a mystery . While the writers never really took that approach path , it is fun to imagine what might have change had this been true .

While this seems to be more wishful mentation than anything else , if there is even an ounce of truth in this then that would be something to think about , albeit unpopular . Mark and Jackson shake some bromantic sceneson the show but it would give it a whole new property if that turned romanticistic somehow .
