Once again the Grey's Anatomy spokepeople have lied to us. First they said that Isaiah Washington was not fired from the show, and then he was. Today comes word from
Michael Ausiello that TR Knight is negotiating his out of the show even though ABC and Grey's Anatomy said the rumors of him not attending table reads and walking off of the show were not true.
Multiple sources confirm that T.R. Knight has asked to be released from his contract, a request that both ABC and Grey's show-runner Shonda Rhimes appear poised to grant. "They're working out the details now," whispers an ABC insider. (A network rep was unavailable for comment.)
It is not known when George O'Malley will say goodbye to Seattle Grace, but I doubt we will even notice. You know kind of like, who knew he was still on.
I can't wait to hear what his big mouth BFF Katherine Heigl will have to say about this, because I wonder what role she played with his decision!
UPDATE: Here is the funniest part of the story, Scoop is reporting that TR Knight is leaving the show because he wants to make it on the big screen.
“He’s seen what his friend (Heigl) has done with her career  lots of people in the industry said she wouldn’t translate to film and she has. He wants more than what he can get from ‘Grey’s,’†said one source.
“He’s not inspired by his story, by George,” the source says. “He’s convinced he can do films. It’s as simple as that.â€Â
To quote Grey’s Anatomy…”Seriously?”
