With the PRT no more now I’m really wondering what S19 wants with Carina. Part of me is starting to think S19/Shondaland promoted her just so they wouldn’t have to worry about her booking something else. I love Maya and S19 enough to keep watching with or without Marina, but I feel like this sucks for Stefania. She 100% said she didn’t want to be just the girlfriend and so far… Fingers crossed they give her more to do soon

Yeah, though as an I’m actor I’m sure she knows how it goes, I’m hoping it balances out, with more screentime in later eps or at least more on Grey’s.

And another anon:

I am actually quite curious what people were expecting from stefania being a regular on station? What would she do on the show? She’s a doctor, she has no place on a show about firefighters. I just assumed she would only be there as maya’s girlfriend. Some people think they may have her be a new PRT person with Ben but I don’t think I would want her to give up being an OB doctor just so she can get more screentime. I think it would be a disservice to the character especially because she’s so passionate about the profession.

Well, people had been floating around the PRT, though that’s over now, but there’s so much that could be done. They just have to think of her as a regular character and write stories about her sometimes instead of fitting her into others’. That’s the big difference to me.

They could have her stop by more often at the station, bring food, befriend the others, moonlight as a consultant on whatever because of covid, it doesn’t have to necessarily be realistic. Even if it’s just her and Maya, she could get to have a story about her brother and have Maya comforting her. I half expected her to get maybe the same amount of time on Station 19 but then more on Grey’s, but that’s not happening either. And really, even if it was just as Maya’s gf, more than a minute’d be nice. 

I think, interestingly, having Andy move in with them is actually good for that? Because Andy will just always carry the majority of story and screentime with her, so Carina sharing that spotlight can only be a good sign.

And another anon:

Something I noticed. Carina seems to have a lot of respect for Bailey. It goes beyond than her just being her boss. They don’t share many scenes, not even on greys but I wish they would explore that.

I was like, what do you mean, one of the only interactions between them I’ve seen being where in the Grey’s premiere this season she kind of yelled at her, but right, right, the allusions to her boss and always paying attention to what she’s doing, right. And you’re right! I wish they would! Like, at the end of it, doctors or firefighters, this show is about personal relationships, so there’s always more of that if they want to write it.
