T.R. Knight NOT Leaving Grey's
Filed under: T.R. Knight > Katherine Heigl
He's in. He's out.
He's back in?
This morning it was reported that T.R. Knight was not returning for the next season of Grey's Anatomy.
But, not so fast, because now there might be hope.
A tweet from show creator Shonda Rhimes suggests that the news of T.R.'s departure is false or as she puts it, "a hilarious, ridiculous rumor."
But is it?
All anyone is sure about is that both he and Katherine Heigl are under contract for another season and judging by Shonda's instant reaction to the news, she clearly wants to keep them on board.
At the fall upfronts for ABC, entertainment boss Stephen McPherson also weighed in on the situation, but gave no definite answer: "They've both signed on [for next season]. I can't say whether or not they'll both be there."
Way to keep the fans dangling.
Our bet: Geroge out, Izzie in.
But we'll just have to wait and see!

How can he not be out?? His face is DESTROYYYYYEDDD!!
I hope not though, I
Both in. For at least one season.
they will both be alive next season just watch….i know tv
I hope hes still there!!
They cant keep both of them! I mean how likely is it that two best friends (or former best friends) both survive serious illness and a serious accident. It's just not real. I personally hope both of them are off the show. The end for their characters would be perfect. Get on that elevator George!!!
zzzz i dont even read the news i just know is BORING
Honestly WHAT else is TR gonna be in? I dont think he has it to be a leading man in film.
I hope neither on them leave
That's a cute photo of him. I don't watch the show, or follow the boring gossip so much……….but HE's CUTE ! An asset to the Gay Community !
i say, we wait. his face is completely gone, so i doubt he will be back. they just dont want to loose fans, they want people to tune in and find out, and hope they will get attached halfway through regardless if he stays or not.
I HOPE HIM AND HIS HOT LITTLE PEICE OF BOY ASS ARE HAVING HOT GAY SEX FIVE TIMES A DAY!
Wouldn't it be funny if Shonda Rimes kept him locked into his contract and made him lay in bed as a coma patient all of next season?
AAARGHHHH the tension is killing me!!!! must.know.what.will.happen!!!
I hate when actors decide they're too big for the show that made them a star. They always leave and are never heard from again. i.e. the entire original cast of ER except for George Clooney!
They both were dying to leave and I can't see ABC having the money to pay them to stay. I think George is dead b/c Izzie was going to join him, but then it was like she realized that she needed to stay. But I think she signed the DNR and she'll be back for just a few episodes as a veggie to satisfy her contract or something and then they'll pull the plug for legal reasons. And if George stays he will be really disfigured in the face, and he wasn't a big part of the show recently, so he'll be gone.
Perez, I love you man, but get your facts straight. Shonda said that about rumors that TR was leaving and being replaced by another actor that would be playing George post plastic surgery. Not about the rumors that broke yesterday about TR leaving.
Shonda's actually on vacation right now as per her twitter and she doesn't take electronics with her so she hasn't responded to these rumors yet.
I hope they are both still in!! : )
OMG PEREZ DO YOUR RESEARCH PROPERLY. i read that tweet. someone asked her if some other actor would play george since his face is unrecognizable and T.R would be gone and someone else will play george. That's when she said it's ridiculous.
Re: Delaram – Ditto - read what she was replying to Perez!
No offense but Katherine Heigl isn't that big… and she's actually good in Grey's Anatomy. In movie roles she's just okay.
Dump that immoral fag boy!
Honestly don't care. Grey's Anatomy stopped being good a few seasons ago.
Hey, Perez, how about waiting a nanosecond before posting a story? You flip-flop on your scoops more often than not. So annoying.
I thought it was symbolim that George was off the elevator…"in heaven" if you will…and Izzie was still on the elevator…I thought this was symbolism that she was about to join him in heaven, but she might have pulled through because they ignored her DNR request.
DIE IZZIE!!! Hang in there George.
I agree, George out.. He was already off the elevator and "on the other side." I thought it was weird he was in his military outfit, though, since he'd never actually worn it.. I hope they both come back, though, because I love 'em!
Anyone remember what happened in "Friends" when Joey pissed off the writers of DOOL ? They made his character brain dead. It would be a great way to piss off any actor- make their character lie in a hospital bed for an entire season, without any lines.
But I hope George and Izzy make it !
bah! I hate when "news" is posted and it's not fully investigated.
shonda's tweet was in response to a fan saying they heard a rumor that TR's character, george, would live, but because of the accident and disfigurement, TR would not be returning to the show.
get this stuff straight before blind posting! we look to you to give us the latest, correct news, Perez!
I love TR, but if he has two brain cells rubbing together in his head, he will suck it up and make Grey's last as long as he can. Does he really thing he'll ever get work again when it's over. Look at that idiot who co-stared on EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND. When the show ended, he continued to try to get work in TV, but no one wants to see him. Can't think of his name, but he's a real pig.
OMG…both should be out!…ungrateful bitches….
Ughhh I just can't see him anymore
Oh please!!! will someone just come out with an official statement already?!?! T.R. could go for all I care but how the finale went down, it is possible he could return or maybe just the character George will return with a new actor because George's face was destroyed beyond recognition so maybe someone else will play George after his face is reconstructed? who knows.. oh well.. NEXT!!!
But wait? Didn't they both die at the end of this season? Are there gonna be more ghosts on Grey's? Because I don't think I can handle that…
