Grey's Anatomy Spoilers: More on T.R. Knight
Here are a few items from E! Online's Kristin Dos Santos this morning, concerning the rumored departure of T.R. Knight. It's still not confirmed, but appears likely ...
Q: Is our George really leaving Grey's Anatomy? As a Gizzie and George fan, I hope not.
A: The latest I've heard from insiders is that yes, T.R. Knight did ask to get out of his contract, and so far, no final decision or details have been reached, but it is likely he we will go. However, you should know that according to ABC sources, T.R. is not the first Grey's Anatomy cast member to ask out of a contract. There have been at least two others in recent years. Any guesses?
Q: Got any more scoop on T.R. leaving Grey's Anatomy?
A: When asked whether T.R. is leaving, Eric Dane tells us: "I don't know how true that is, but if it were, it would certainly be a loss. I don't think there's any truth to that until I'm told otherwise." I'm told that pretty much the entire cast and crew is being kept in the dark as to what is really going on. Still, T.R. Knight remains close friends with Katherine Heigl. They were spotted having dinner Thursday at BLVD 16 with Katherine's hubby, Josh Kelley, and her mom Nancy.

Yeah another Slexiepuke fan who wants George out of the way. You guys are disgusting, to keep your incest couple everyone hates, you want a character everyone loves to leave.
Actually TR is a respected theater actor, and a much better actor than your wooden favorite ED, so he wants to go back in there, not do crap like Grey.
Oh and TR was amazing in CSI. He had me in tears, I am sure ED couldn't do the role.
If Slexiepuke fans are the only one that leaves, the show will get cancelled so fast because they have only 4 or 5 fans who spam everything. They are even trying to spam the ABC panel getting people who don't watch the show to pretend to love Mexie because they know the couple is getting tarshed in there.
George and Lexie, now, they were way more popular.

I think all of them have thought about it... I mean, at one point or another for most of the characters their story sucked... then it got better... So im thinking Katie Heigl... (I have to say if she leaves i will be leaving with her...) and Sandra Oh,... she is just sooo talented, Im thinking she would love to do movies...
I am waiting 4 a change on some stories, (* the interns... * the new characters... (blahhhh) * and Izzie's crazy head... because I love Katie Heigl, but right now... im stressed with Izzie :S ) Also I would like to see more MerDer...
Im happy with Yang's story...
And I think that George and Alex need more screen time, and more exciting stories... I really hope no one else leaves... cuz it just screws the storyline

Sandra Oh was one a while back, and I'm sure Katie Heigl is the other. As for George leaving...meh...one less story to worry about. He's always been a bit of a non-entity to me. I'd rather see his screen time go to MerDer or Slexie.
If TR thinks that roles are going to be jumping at him if he leaves...his last job before Grey's....CSI, mentally challenged potential murderer....hmmm

I REALLY hope T.R. Knight doesn't leave. He's my absolute most favorite character on Grey's. It'll be such a loss if he leaves. So sad.. *cries forever* The show wont be the same without him at ALL.
If he does leave it is totally understandable.. I love the show more than anything but this season is just horrible.. George is hardly in the story anymore. We should be worried if the show is going to get canceld within the next year or two.

..."in recent years"...Rose?

I'm going with Katherine Heigl and Justin Chambers... remember the blind item about a cast member being canned and not knowing it yet? Someone who hasn't really had much of a story this season? Let's face it, Alex hasn't had much of a story. He had that adorable exchange with the patient who told him to "say hi," and he's been kind of sitting there while his gf screws a dead guy. I wouldn't be at all surprised if we lost George, Izzie AND Alex in the next year.
Though as a huge Sara Ramirez fan, I would love it if she left to return to Broadway where she belongs. That woman has WAY too much talent to waste it on the sinking ship that is Grey's Anatomy.

His character I mean.
December 16th, 2008 6:00 PM
I don't blame TR for wanting to leave cos the show has always sorta treated him like crap.
December 16th, 2008 5:43 PM
I agree with you merderforlife...but I do hate to see the breakup of the original five...it won't quite be the same.
