While the media fans the flames of rumors and speculation and us fans continue to contemplate the future of Grey’s Anatomy and its cast, the folks behind the show – i.e. Shonda Rhimes & Co – are running around trying to dispell these rumors. So, for those of you that want to keep track of what’s being said officially, here’s a quick rundown for you:
- Regarding the rumor that T.R. Knight might be replaced by a different actor in order to keep George alive, the official word from Shonda Rhimes on this is, “A hilarious, ridiculous rumor.” She stated this via Twitter.
- Regarding the rumor that T.R. Knight has officially been let out of his contract – It seems T.R. Knight remains contracted with the series throughout Season 6. This is backed up by ABC’s President, and also an industry source that has stated that, “Nothing at all has changed in T.R.’s status.” This of course is no guarantee of anything regarding George’s future, simply that the actor is still contracted to the show.
- More on T.R. Knight from Shonda Rhimes: “There have been lots of rumors about T.R., but T.R.’s never said anything. Take from it what you will.”
- There is no official word from either T.R. Knight’s or Katherine Heigl’s reps on any of this stuff.
In other words: T.R. Knight and Katherine Heigl will be back if ABC/Shonda Rhimes wishes for them to be back. And for the moment, no one wants us to know what’s going to happen with George and Izzie.
For the sake of everyone’s sanity, I’d advice everyone to sit back and not believe anything one way or another regarding either character. It’s very unlikely that those who actually know anything for certain are going to be leaking it, and it’s going to be a bit before things start leaking from above.
I’ll say that I’m relieved that the rumor that George might be back as a different actor has been put to rest. I didn’t really imagine they’d go that route, but all the same: phew.

I’m glad that the T.R. replaced by a different actor has been laid to rest also. I mean, if George has to leave the show, I think that everyone would appreciate remembering him as T.R. and not as someone new.
By the way, why did the set up/format of the blog change? I kind of liked it the other way, not to be rude or anything!

They could never replace TR with someone else! Truly silly.
Exactly Arieanna!
[...] Monaghan taking over for T.R. Knight as George O’Malley. Despite the fact that Shonda Rhimes has debunked this rumor, many still think it will happen anyway. After all, Shonda & Co. do love their twists. But [...]
