Drama on the Set of Grey's Anatomy! As summarized by Perez. I can't believe they didn't fire Isaiah Washington back when all this originally happened; if they don't fire him now, they're just crazy.
The whole hand injury plotline tells me that they're gonna get rid of him (as they should). I think they'll eventually make Sam gay on the show, too, since that's the only rational explanation for his resisting Callie Torres.
Ahhhh....Callie Torres. What a beautiful bolt of lighting, eh?
(pause...)
But anyway, Washington is an idiot for even more reasons. Dude's been in more shit than corn and horseflies.
back in the '90's he got into it on the set of LOVE JONES with Larenz Tate (who eventually had to get VERY "O-Dog-ish on his ass)and the casting directors for that film were warned by Spike Lee of his less than professional behavior.
Don't know who gave him another chance, but if it was up to me, I wouldn't even let dude on fries detail at the local Micky Dee's...

Yeah, I wasn't sure how I was feeling about today until I read that line and now I'm quite happy that I didn't just crawl under the bed this morning and refuse all communication with the outside world. Good man, Joe!
I don't watch that show but the wife does and she freaked out when she saw that and called me in to explain what a crazy fuck that guy was being. If I was the producer of that show I would have set his car on fire in lieu of a letter of termination. What a shitbird.
Grey's Anatomy uses my company's hospital carts this season. Otherwise, I don't like the show. We've also been in the Sopranos and ER. And one of our sales reps shows up every once and a while on Rescue Me.
Hey, here's a link to the Knight interview with Ellen Degeneres. I don't really watch the show, but the character George has always been my type of guy, and Knight comes across as very professional about this whole thing. Watch through to the end of the interview. It's sweet and a little woobie.
