    Did Grey's Anatomy lose their original writers or something?! The story lines are not what they were in the first season. And actually are now very disappointing. This used to be mine and my daughters favorite show but now it's like "take it or leave it". Sorry to say something is different and it's not good. Fix it before you lose us all.

    I think both actresses, Brooke and Sara did a fine job on the show. I think the chemistry worked well for them as best friends but I think it fell flat when it became sexual. There didn't seem to be anything but Callie having some curiosity, not a real revelation that she might indeed be a lesbian.

    The Callie character got too freaked out about it and it became almost silly to watch.

    I do think the firing was a bad move. Brooke is talented and added a great tension to the show. They just needed to move away from those two being a couple. Another gay couple? Sure.

    It is simply sickening to hear of this. I would think that people could move into the 21st centry and agree to disagree. Brooke and Sara did an excellent job with their characters. This relationship on grey's was well written and followed along with what happens in real life. I love the comparison to getting glasses. It was the most simple way to compare and a way to have such and impact. If i was on the show, I would walk away. depending on how this pans out....i will not be continuing to watch.

    never really liked the show...started watching only when Callica was taken to the next level...thought to myself the show is not so boring to death after all...
    I think Brook's character was hot! who cares she hates everybody, that even makes her more hot! love what she did with Erica, the storyline did suck but for sure was not her fault..they couldn't wish for someone more pro than Brook to play Erica..the sloppy work is on abc...not gonna watch more of it for sure....now all i can do is wait for nip/tuck to start. that's a show! grey's writers go learn some skills from nip/tuck's writers....
    Brook, all I can say is that you don't want to be associated with a show like that, you were the best actress on the show..can't wait to see what you're gonna do next...
    and one last thing...your voice is so sexy!!!

    just because american people dont think the good way to, shes been fired. i think this relation ship could have moved on mentalities.. Well, i hope this show will not loose in integrity with this problem/
    GOOD LUCK BECAUSE I CANT LIVE WITH OUT GREYS ANATOMY.

    I was surprised to see them get rid of Hahn so quickly. The way the storyline was developing, they could have just ended her relationship with Callie quite easily. I don't think how they did it was very fair to Brooke. Also, I did not see any chemistry between George and Izzie either. I was choked with that whole storyline. I preferred to see George with Callie. They had chemistry.

    As a lesbian I found parts of this story-line difficult. But I could identify the process each character was going through as we all have had to come to terms as to who we are as people during some point in our lives. I'm not surprised that ABC pulled the plug on it, but I am disappointed. Seattle, WA is a very diverse community. There is a huge gay population located there and it doesn't seem realistic that there isn't that popultation represented on this show. As far as Shonda Rhimes giving the company line that they still have a lesbian character, Callie, I must remind her that they have not wriiten the character to identify herself as such and as long as she continues to have intimate relationships with men, she will not be labled as such and Shonda and ABC are on safer ground
    I have watched this show since it's begining. I love the characters, the different storylines. I laugh and cry every week. Brooke's termination makes me sad on a very human level. If Shonda or ABC

    "Fan of the Show", are you a NAZI? Is no one else bothered by her racist, illiterate ramblings??? I am upset with the way the storyline ended because finally a lesbian who didn't look like Barbie or cindy Crawford was depicted on television, and she was, of all things, actually having a relationship! Not all lesbians are supermodels, and seeing ordinary women portraying lesbians was refreshing.

  10. EricaFan

    I so agree with you Kat and BringEricaBack

  11. Thissucks

    Firing BS is BS
    ):

  12. Good idea!

    It's good this storyline will be ending. I know some people who stopped watching the show because they couldn't stand it. It's one thing to have a gay character, but we don't need to see or hear about such gross details as they were getting into!

  13. Rachel

    Erica and Callie were my favorite couple on the show. I was very upset and mad that they would fire Brooke Smith because her character[Erica Hahn] and Sara Ramirez character[Callie Torres] didnt have good chemistry. Are you crazy? They had great chemistry,i really wanted to see there relationship grow. I was so excited to see two very incredible actresses come together and end up fallin madly in love. I think that the network made a very horrible descion. I love grey's anatomy.

    OMG!! i am going to miss erica and what she brought to the show! im also goin g to miss brookes acting! I LOVE HER!! i think im going to have to satay home and mope for a while!! But we'll see what they do next!!

    I'LL mis you Brooke and Callica!!

    R.I.P Callica :( :(

    I'm not a homophobe or any of the sort. But even I guessed this was coming. The network execs at Disney are stuck in the Guy/Gal era, and as a "family" company, they probably think that it's too risque' to show to much detail on a lesbian relationship. Which sucks, because Callie and Erica had potential for a great relationship.

  16. Rocky

    Fantastic!!!!! Now I can enjoy watching again!

  17. McSpirited

    Ugh. Why do they do this?
    T.R. can't leave!!
    :(

  18. Rebecca

    I think Brooke Smith is an excellent, excellent actress and I loved Erica Hahn. She was caustic, but very funny. If the suits didn't like where the storyline with Callie was going, why didn't they have the storyline go in another direction instead of dropping Brooke Smith? Callie and Mark could have gotten together and Erica could have had a thing with the new bi-sexual girl. Callie and Erica weren't working anyway. They seemed to be trying too hard. That is too bad.

    OH AND, they built this relationship up so much and it was a huge part of the show. You don't climax it like that to just CUT it randomly. Erica just walks away at the end of episode 8 and THAT'S IT? Like good one there, so very creative and magical. IM PISSED!

  20. Kat

    I am still so damn furious about this. "they chemistry wouldn't work out in the long run"... oh i'm sorry, but i'm pretty sure the whole reason their relationship started was because of THEIR CHEMISTRY. It was the whole point. They didn't click because they were both gay, they clicked because they clicked. I don't think this is the way Shonda had intended it. It's just extremely sad that she has to let this happen and have the network change the way she want's to write things. I can't believe people are still homophobic. Really unfair.

    "Brooke Smith was obviously not fired for playing a lesbian, Erica Hahn. Clearly it's not an issue as we have a lesbian character on the show – Calliope Torres --- bull sh!t -- callie struggled with her identity as gay and that is why she remains -- they'll have her jump back into mc whoever's arms by next week's episode -- this is the worst kind of discrimination -- "How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words!" -- samuel adams

    This is soooo messed up. I thought we were moving beyond the whole homophobic BS. My hat was off to Greys for putting so much work into this storyline, it was so refreshing, it made me smile.Somebody definately lost their balls in the process though. I am so angry about this, Erica was one of my favorite characters, and her and Callies new relationshop gave me reason to watch every week. They were so cute together. My daughter and I couldn't wait, week to week to see what would happen next. I thought Greys was dealing with it well, starting it off with those nervous, awkward moments, so realistic. I loved them, and will miss seeing what would have happened with these two. Very sad, and I don't think I want to watch it anymore. You dont have to be gay to appreciate the innocense, the beauty of this relationship, they made me smile every week.

    ABC's decision of firing Brooke Smith really sucks! I mean it really sucks! Erica and Callie are the main reaon why I watched Grey's anatomy, if it weren't because of them the show could really be boring, now that Brooke Smith is fired and Erica Hahn's character is dump I wnder where the ratings will go,. ABC's decision of firing her is really stupid,. So what if she's playing a lesbian role, reality check it is 2008 already, the world is open for gay relationships,. I hope ABC could think about it and reconsider,. Brooke Smith is really a good actress and her role as Erica Hahn really brings complexity and spice in the show,.
