The Interwebs are abuzz today with news that Shonda Rhimes is actually considering killing off Katherine Heigl’s character in Grey’s Anatomy. I know some of you want to move on from this whole Emmy-comments mess, but it doesn’t look like the news wants to die down quite yet.
At first I thought it was just another cheesy tabloid rumor, but E! Online is reporting this particular story so it might hold some water after all. According to an E! Online source, “Shonda is pissed. They’re thinking of killing her off. They want Izzie dead.”
Sounds a bit melodramatic. But the source also said, “It’s not good there.” I’m taking that to mean on the set of Grey’s Anatomy. And that I can certainly believe.
But for the rest, I’d take it with a grain of salt. Shonda Rhimes’ rep said, “I haven’t heard anything about that.” And neither Katherine Heigl’s reps nor ABC are commenting on what – at this point – is nothing but a rumor. While it’s entirely possible that Shonda Rhimes is upset to the point of wanting to get rid of the actress and her character altogether, it’s just as likely that things are being spun out of proportion.
We’ll just have to wait and see on this one. I, for one, hope it’s not true. Or that at least nothing comes of it if it is. What do you guys think?

I think George was enough. I have cancer third battle and I can and to to relate to more characters like her. Strong and willing to fight really life or acting I find it encouraging. The war very inportant to deal with that as well. Money is a really issue in hospital situations. Please keep Izzie!!!!!!
