Since the beginning of this season, when Katherine Heigl's contract situation started dominating Grey's Anatomy news, her character's fate has dominated spoiler talk.

It took four months and some feverish sex with her dead fiance to play out, but Izzie finally got cancer and only has a five percent chance to live. So Izzie's fate is effectively sealed, granting Katherine Heigl's wish of being released from the show, right? Not necessarily.

Also, Shonda Rhimes has once again given away a HUGE component of the show well in advance, announcing who will get married and on what date (May 7).

The woman apparently has no faith people will watch if she doesn't do this (which is ironic, since she used to be the spoiler Nazi) and it's really frickin' annoying.
