*GA* is awesome!! Thu, Mar 1, 2007 at 05:58 PM EST

Remeber: the actors are great and I think they are wonderful people in the real life! MY cousin is actually a camera man at Grey's anatomy and told info not able to share but I can tell you it will continue to be a great show!

*GA* is awesome! Thu, Mar 1, 2007 at 05:54 PM EST

Grey's anatomyis a wonderful show...sad...tense...funny...mysterious! Its everything...you shouldn't be talking about how bad it is talk about the positives lady!!

If Isaiah Washington is to be fired for making a derogatory remark about gay people, then that would mean there are a whole lot of people in the world whose jobs should be on the chopping block. Stop being hypocrites!

Kellyann Sun, Feb 25, 2007 at 01:41 PM EST

I think it's sad that people (including the writers at EW) think that you can just trade one black actor in for another. Like, "OK we get rid of Isaiah Washington but we have to keep the 'black seat' so let's go find another black actor because they are all so indistinguishable from one another." Give me a break. Shonda already addressed rumors such as this when it was suggested that Isaiah would be replaced by Eric LaSalle or Boris Kodjoe. It ain't happening.

I can't begin to tell you how sick to death I am of all of this nonsense. Number one, Isaiah Washington is not a homophobe because he used a taboo word for gay one time in an argument. Show me any evidence to the contrary over a decade in the movies and on television. The Burke and Cristina couple have many, many fans. To replace Burke on this show would be suicidal and the height of ridiculousness. This is almost like brainwashing. The pro-gay media has pushed this issue and pushed it to the point that even people who were surprised and disappointed at the way Isaiah went about defending himself at the Globes are now supporting him. The media needs to back off and let the people involved solve their differences. He made a mistake and he is doing all in his power to rectify it. His acting on the show and his characterization of Preston Burke is superb. Taye Diggs will be good for the spin off. We don't need him at Seattle Grace.

Oooh Anger Management! Like that is so incredibly life-changing! Give me a break. Taye is OK but I hope this theory is true. I just want Isaiah off no matter what. I think a neo-natal storyline would be awesome. That also spells the end of the relationship between Sloane and her as he would likely stay on regular GA.

I really hope that they do not do this spin off. I think Addison really adds to Grey's and she would be missed. That being said, I think Burke does too - regardless of his crappy remarks. And trust me, if you think that Isaiah remarks are the worst thing said in a workplace environment - that you clearly aren't living in reality. Also, he did goto anger mgmt therapy. In most work places, you wouldn't be fired but required to goto sensitivity training. My point is we love the show as it is - don't take any one away!

Tara Fri, Feb 23, 2007 at 09:55 AM EST

This is way out there, dude.

Spend your time convincing your higher-ups that you need a moratorium on freaking Lost covers instead.

Denise Fri, Feb 23, 2007 at 09:54 AM EST

Put Taye Diggs in anything and I will watch, one of my favorite actors!!! The man is SO SO FINE!!!!

Ag Fri, Feb 23, 2007 at 07:45 AM EST

In this day and age I cannot understand how people can be soooooo shallow.SandraO is beautiful.Even if she just does'nt fit into some people's idea of what beautiful is.
shame on you

aa Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 11:52 PM EST

that seems like a lot of money and effort to just get rid of someone if that's what they want. this theory holds no water for me. furthermore i think that addison/kate are worthy of their own show. get rid of sandra oh? you have got to be kidding me she and chandra wilson are simply the best actresses on grey's.

Mozz Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 07:54 PM EST

this is a great conspiracy theory. Sign me up for it!

The Smoking Man Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 07:19 PM EST

Annie, it's like you read Shonda's journal! I bet it all comes true...especially that whole not being "a great big hit" thing.

Zizzou Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 07:11 PM EST

I think you hit the nail in the hammer. As much as i want a double dose of Shonda's wit... its bad idea for her to split her time.. look at Aaron Sorkin; splitting b/w West Wing and Sports Night cost both shows. GA needs full time attention since its not a procedure show like Law and Order... and hmm Addison aught be the new Chief. This is an ensemble show like Friends which we all knoe failed whe focused on one character (Joey) I hope this is classic GA dropping false spoilers and news to keep us fans on out toes

Chris Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 06:34 PM EST

This idea is even dumber than Slezak's premise for the spin-off.

And Callie O'Malley dies tonight.

grey fans Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 06:14 PM EST

Not Taye Diggs. That sucks. But, I don't feel the love in the relationship between Burke and Christina. They are always at battle. But, Taye Diggs. That washed out drama king. He can't act and he definitely has no charisma. Besides Shonda Rhimes, he hates black women. Didn't you hear his comment about having black women as a partner...it ended with "that has one of them". He was telling the interviewer to talk to a black man that acutally has a relationship with a black woman. You're a black woman. I know you are not going to put another admitted bigot on the show. He is no better than Washington. Come on...do better. Black women will boycott this show if he stars in it. As for the spin off. That show, too. Get rid of the bigot Washington. But, don't trade one bigot for another. Taye doesn't like you Shonda, because you are a black woman. He just desperate. Don't feed the dog a bone. He's not that hot. Now, if you want hot...Morris Chestnut. Hint, Hint!

sam Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 06:05 PM EST

I don't know about your theory, but Taye Diggs deserves to be on a big hit and his participation guarantees that I will be watching.

MiaS Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 06:02 PM EST

There have been reports of a major character dying tonight, my money is on Mer's mom.

Mia

P.S. Even though I LOVE ADDISON and Kate Walsh, I HATE the idea of her having her own show. She is great on GA. Can Shonda do 2 shows at once?
Sounds like danger to me!

pfitz Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:46 PM EST

My prediction is that Burke dies tonight....

Jessica Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:46 PM EST

I really think Burke needs to be fired or die or something on the show because what Mr. Washington said should not be tolerated and I hate his character! I think Christina is so much more interesting on her own and they way he pushes her to be someone other than who she is for their relationship is horrible. It will be great for May sweeps!

John Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:33 PM EST

get rid o' Isiah Washington already

Ernesto Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:32 PM EST

Sandra Oh is the best drama actress on TV next to Mariska Hargitay and I also think she is a really sexy, beautiful and smart woman.God bless her because without her 'Grey's Anatomy' would be a very different show, just check her reactions tonight when she finds out Meredith isn't reaction.She is amazing!!!!

Ernesto Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:30 PM EST

Washington SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED!!!!!! Period, I don't care how they get rid of him, just do it!! What an a** that guy is seriously, and I am not even gay but if it had been a race issue I know I would have been personally offended so that's where I'm coming from.

Brian K Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:12 PM EST

Please let this be true! I don't like the one-for-one trade idea, but Washington has GOT to go. Whatever it takes, I'm fine with. Of course, I would also be fine with Meredith dying....

Victoria Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:06 PM EST

Wow, Dre, a lot of people think that Sandra Oh is quite attractive, myself included. Sorry she doesn't fit into your botoxed reality and instead represents a quirky beauty that I find wonderful to see on screen.

As for the conspiracy theory I don't buy it, but who knows. Odder things have happened behind the scenes.

Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:03 PM EST

I still think this is SUCH a bad idea...

Jyoti Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 05:00 PM EST

That's a lot of money to be spending just to get rid of an actor and fill the 'black lead' quota. I don't buy it, sorry.

Jessica Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:59 PM EST

Nice way to push your own agenda, EW. I had held you in higher esteem than other websites. I will do so no longer.

Dre Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:53 PM EST

They should get rid of Snadra Oh. She doesn't fit in a show full of "dreamys" and "steamys" when her looks simply make folks queezy.

Thataboy Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:34 PM EST

Oh god, Taye Diggs? Why do I feel as if I've lived through this day before, over and over and over and ...

Vicki Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:34 PM EST

Isaiah won't be going anywhere.

Caitlin Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:29 PM EST

i love taye diggs, but i see him as a movie man, not tv. and if rhimes really wanted to get rid of isaiah, shouldn't see write him in the spin off, which is, let's face it, doomed to fail?

I love him but.. Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 04:25 PM EST

Isn't Taye Diggs the kiss of death for tv sitcoms, whether old (Ally McBeal) or new (Day Break). I guess Shonda just can't look past that smile.
