Can you imagine Grey’s Anatomy without Izzie and George? Well, Yahoo TV is suggesting that this could be a strong possibility. From reading the various sources/rumors it sounds like it’s not completely decided, but the option of Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight leaving is being discussed.

Honestly, I’m not sure anyone would miss T.R. Knight. Think back to the last major thing you can remember “George” doing on the show. He’s basically “The Chief’s” little run around boy with no story lines going on. That basically means that there’s no reason for him to stay. It’s too bad, because I loved his character when he was getting married and even when little Grey was interested in him. Too bad the show ruined little Grey for me, but that’s a topic for another post.

On the other hand, Katherine Heigl would be a character I’d definitely miss. I’m glad her dead boyfriend is gone, because that was just weird. However, Izzie has been a great character and still could do a lot of interesting things on the show.

Either way, Katherine Heigl has a ton of options. T.R. Knight probably does also, but Katherine is going to be a superstar if she wants to be. It will be interesting to see what happens with their characters.

I’m really looking forward to the Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice crossover on Thursday. Addison should really not kiss McDreamy. How wrong is that!?!!?!!

People TV Watch reported that Brooke Smith is no longer going to be on Grey’s Anatomy after tonight’s episode.

The romance is over for Brooke Smith’s character on Grey’s Anatomy: the actress has abruptly been written out of the hit medical drama.
Smith, whose character Dr. Erica Hahn had just begun a lesbian affair with Sara Ramirez’s Dr. Callie Torres on the ABC show, told EW.com that Grey’s creator Shonda Rhimes “just suddenly told me that they couldn’t write for my character anymore.” Adds Smith, “it was the last thing I expected.”
Smith’s last Grey’s appearance will be Thursday’s episode, but don’t expect any closure for her character. “My final scene is just me heading to my car,” says Smith. “I honestly don’t know what happens in the next episode.”

I must admit that I’m personally pretty glad. She kind of grew on me a little bit over time, but I really didn’t like her when she first showed up on the show. At the end of the day, the best part of her character were her and Yang fighting. That part I will miss. I wonder who they’ll get to replace her character. They’ll still need someone to do all the work on the hearts, no?

The past 2 days my wife and I were both just wanting Addison to move back to Seattle and Grey’s Anatomy. At least give us a cameo or something. I think we’d all love it.
