About two weeks ago, it was revealed that both
Sarah Drew and
Jessica Capshaw were fired from Grey’s Anatomy and people were not happy. Yesterday, their fans took the sky to tell the two actresses how much they love them.
According to People after the news broke, their fans started a Twitter campaign to raise money to fly a banner over the studio where the medical drama tapes. Once they got the $1,000, the two actresses saw their names high above them with a message that reads, “We 💓 Sarah Drew & Jessica Capshaw.” The fan favorites feel the same way. April said, “We are speechless! You guys, we love you so much! We are BLOWN AWAY by your support and love!! Wow wow wow!! 😘😘😘.” While Arizona wrote, “Looks like the fans just let the mike drop…wow, wow, wow…can’t believe that you all organized a plane to actually fly over prospect studios with a banner.”
Not only did their admirers take their message to the stars, they also have one on the internet. The magazine says they started a petition to keep the actresses on the show, and it already has received 35,000 signatures.
The ABC show has to be feeling like they made another huge mistake by getting rid of people the viewers actually like. Will it hurt the show’s ratings? We will have to wait until September to find out.
BTW this is not the first time that Drew has felt the love from the fans. Back when Everwood was wrongfully cancelled, fans sent a Ferris Wheel to Burbank to tell The CW execs that made a massive mistake by not renewing a show for another season. I am still pissed about that cancellation and enjoyed my adventure on that ride.
