Is T.R. Knight leaving or not?

That's the question of the hour, day, week and month in the world of Grey's Anatomy. Last week's report that his character, George O'Malley, is definitely dead was shot down by series creator / producer Shonda Rhimes ... sort of. The woman lies, a lot, so who knows.

Still, nothing is official regarding Knight's departure, and the actor himself has said nothing since rumors of his unhappiness with Rhimes surfaced months and months ago.

The only issue Rhimes spoke on somewhat definitively was the rumor of a "reconstructed" George played by a new actor after the character's extensive "plastic surgery."

Rhimes called this ridiculous, but she is completely unreliable, so basically this post is worthless, and we'll just have to keep guessing. Probably just how she likes it ...
