Splashy and flashy (but not really trashy), Palm Royale on Apple TV+ fits easily into the ranks of high-gloss, high-concept, female-driven dramas that have enjoyed a Golden Age on premium streaming channels this past decade.

Palm Royale ticks many of those boxes (it’s based on the 2018 novel Mr. and Mrs. American Pie by Juliet McDaniel), but…

And I repeat, Jolink have become that annoyingly happy couple that either endears or nauseates with no in-between. But alas, their shenanigans were nothing if not entertaining and slightly comical on Grey’s Anatomy Season 20 Episode 5, as the hour brought some more tension and drama among characters and was mostly case-focused. Meredith’s appearance brought a touch of nostalgia and a Derek Mention, but alas, we’ve reached a point where she’s not the be-all of a show that used to be hers.
