I haven't publicly said this before, but I do have a crush on him.
And that's one of the most genius roles ever played. So I think a sense of self-doubt somehow translates into something very interesting.
Dr. McDreamy, that's what I call Patrick's character. He's gorgeous, he's got a great body and he's got damn fine hair.
There's a remarkable amount of sexism on TV. When male characters are flawed, they're interesting, deep and complex. But when female characters are flawed, they're just a mess. It's good to put more flawed but interesting female characters out there because it promotes equality.
