Ellen Pompeo was a no-name before Grey’s Anatomy, and now she thinks she knows it all about making the same TV show for 18 years. That is why she believes it is time for the show that made her a household name to end.
“I feel like I’m the super naive one who keeps saying, ‘But what’s the story going to be, what story are we going to tell?'” she told Insider. “And everyone’s like, ‘Who cares, Ellen? It makes a gazillion dollars.'”
I say kill her off and let the medical soap live on without her whiny character. Maybe then the creativity will return to the producers. Possibly she could be the source of what has been hampering the show.
But then again, Station 19 has been beating the show it spun off of this season in the ratings, so maybe Pompeo is onto something.
Plus, when the show ends, so will her career. So I think we are going to learn a lot about her behind-the-scenes antics when she is finally gone from the series. And it is not going to be pretty. But I could be wrong.
So do you think ABC should pull the plug on the program or the actress?
