Grey’s Anatomy spinoff gets Wings
March 7th, 2007 under Shonda Rhimes. [ Comments: none ]

The Hollywood Reporter says that Tim Daly has been added to the two hour episode that could potentially be a spinoff for Grey's Anatomy. And that is about all they can tell us.  The story line for the two-hour episode, being written by "Grey's" creator/executive producer Shonda Rhimes, is being kept under wraps, but it is understood that it will feature popular "Grey's" character Addison Montgomery-Shepherd (Walsh) on the verge of leaving Seattle Grace, a scenario that will be triggered if ABC goes with the spinoff for next season. Details on the characters in the potential spinoff also are being kept secret, but according to the breakdown, Daly's character is described as "handsome, sincere, like a McDreamy."  so think show is going to picked up, don't you.

On another note Steven Weber really grew into his looks because he was not the most attractive in that picture. Tim Daly always looks hot!

The f-word continues to cost Isaiah Washington?
March 6th, 2007 under Shonda Rhimes. [ Comments: none ]

 

KATHERINE Heigl got into a dispute with ABC over her "Grey's Anatomy" salary last week – claiming she wanted to be paid as much as co-stars Sandra Oh and Isaiah Washington – but we hear things aren't going so well for Washington, either. "All the actors are in the midst of contract renegotiations," a source said. "But ABC is using Isaiah's recent troubles to keep from paying him more." Washington recently had to go into anger-management rehab after he'd called fellow co-star T.R. Knight a "f – – – – t." According to our insider, "Isaiah knows it is his fault that he may not get the fat raise he was going to get. ABC doesn't have to give him anything – he is under contract for seven years – and this is going to cost him millions. It's just a bitter pill he is going to have to swallow." A rep for Washington said, "We are going to do our business in private, not in the press." A rep for ABC didn't return calls.

It must be so ugly on that set right about now. I like the snap snap from his people about not taking their business to the press.

More BS from the Grey’s Anatomy set?
March 5th, 2007 under Shonda Rhimes. [ Comments: none ]

 

People Magazine asked Kate Walsh and Sara Ramirez about what has been going on with Katherine Heigl and the Grey's Anatomy contract negotiations. "She's a super-talented girl," Kate said. "Everyone's just working hard." She added this about the contract negotiations, " I literally just worked with Katherine the other night. We just go to work. I don't know – I don't really get into all the stuff. Everybody is doing their own thing with negotiations." Sara had to say this, "She's lovely….Everybody's very professional – not just Katherine – but everybody else too. At the end of the day, we all have to be grateful for our jobs. We're working actors, and not only that, we're on a hit show." Shondra Rhimes, creator of the show, had no comment. The reason why I titled this more BS from the Grey's Anatomy set? is because this sounds just like the reaction the cast had when everything first went down with Isaiah Washington. Just makes me wonder if not everything is hunky dory on the Grey's Anatomy set as they would like us to believe. Luckily there are no award shows coming up for Katherine to say something she will later regret…

Round 3: Katherine Heigl vs Grey’s Anantomy
March 2nd, 2007 under Shonda Rhimes. [ Comments: none ]

 

Katerine Heigl released this statement after Touchstone released their statement about a story leaked by her people(?) to People about her contract negotiations, "I am embarrassed that this has become a public matter and disappointed that Touchstone felt it necessary to divulge private employment information. I had hoped I would be able to deal with this issue confidentially with my bosses. I dropped out of the renegotiation simply because I wanted to treat myself with the respect I was not getting from them. No matter how unhappy I am about their decision to respond to this publicly, I continue to be passionate about and committed to this character." I don't know about you, but I am officially sick of all the behind-the-scenes conflicts on Grey's Anatomy!

Katherine Heigl stuck…I mean staying with Grey’s Anatomy
February 28th, 2007 under Shonda Rhimes. [ Comments: none ]

Watch with Kristin published a statement from ABC about the rumors that she might be leaving the show? Heigl has a 6 year contract with the show, so does not look like she will be going anywhere soon. But then again there is always an out clause.
"Katherine is an integral part of Grey's Anatomy and its success. Fortunately, we have a long-term contract to ensure she'll be with the show for several years to come. In recognition of her tremendous talent and value to the show, we recently approached Katherine with an offer to raise her compensation significantly above the terms of her current contract. We were surprised to see this gesture reported negatively in the press, and want to reassure fans that she will continue as Izzie Stevens."
Well can you blame the negotiations being leaked to the press? I mean if she is getting less than everyone else and she is stuck with a 4 more years on her contract, wouldn't you take it to the press? Wonder if the source was TR Knight, LOL?
