If you're one of the many, many Grey's fans still holding out for that Cristina/Owen endgame, here's a morale boost right from Kevin McKidd himself. Though the odds of Sandra Oh ever making a return to the show haven't looked great for a while, McKidd confirmed in a new interview that she hasn't ruled it out.

McKidd told Entertainment Tonight that Cristina and Owen were his favorite couple on the show, because "they were such a complex couple and really loved each other and were passionate. They really struggled through a lot.” He still speaks to Oh "all the time", McKidd said, and added that she has a lot of thoughts about how Owen's storyline has developed in her absence.

“When my character got married to Amelia, she got kind of jealous and was like, ‘No, that’s not right!'" McKidd went on. Which, surely, means that Cristina needs to come back and make things right. Oh's response to this suggestion? "Well maybe, maybe."

“I hope she will. I think it would be so much fun," McKidd added. "It would open up so much again in the story and mix everything up. Owen, wherever he is in his life, would have incredible stories. She’s just such an amazing actor. I still miss her to this day.”

Yessssss to all of this.
