Two posts earlier I mentioned that T.R. and Katherine are leaving Grey's after this season. It makes sense, since George has barely been on the show the last few weeks, and Izzie has some sort of tumor or something that could kill her, so I was quick to believe it.
Apparently, though, I was wrong. According to Shonda Rhimes,
I'm still a bit skeptical, since evidence to the contrary is overwhelming. But all I can do is sit back and wait for the storylines to unfold.
Something I don't understand is why people say the show sucks or is a mess. How? The last several episodes - all in recent memory - have been excellent. The majority of this season has been excellent, too. Sure, there were a few stray storylines/episodes, but every season of every show in the history of television is like that.
I personally believe that people complain because they're comparing it (Grey's) to what they first saw. Since the show isn't exactly like that anymore, it apparently sucks. It doesn't, though. The characters and stories change because they have to - it would get boring if they didn't. Yes, two strong characters left (Burke and Addison), and that's a shame. But they have a wonderful, if slightly too large, cast remaining. The quality of the show is still fantastic. I believe that the show got away from the creators a little bit around the middle of season four, but after it came back from the writer's strike, it was great again. And this season has been compelling - Owen Hunt is one of the best new characters they've ever created.
So, for all of you that think that the show sucks - first, stop bitching. Secondly, enjoy the show for what it is. Stop comparing the show to previous seasons and just enjoy what's going on. Trust me, you'll be happier this way.

That was a very interesting rumour. And it's not true. That was absolutely taken out of context. Things happen, and I think rumours become fact very easily. And you know I don't like to tell you what's going to happen on the show - but that is a rumour.
