Did George O'Malley really die in the season finale of "Grey's Anatomy" as was evidenced by the special Seattle Grace elevator that takes people to heaven or hell?
Does that mean that T.R. Knight has left the ABC drama, as has been rumored for months?
Entertainment Weekly is reporting today that it's official that these two things have indeed occurred. However, no one in an official capacity with the show is commenting. Listen:
ABC, the TV network: "No comment."
ABC Studios, which produces it, "We are not commenting at this time."
Kelly Bush, Knight's personal publicist: "I have no comment. T.R. is not commenting either."
As a result, we also have no comment.

Greys has jumped the shark. It went from being a cool show about patients and the doctors that treat them to an As The Stomach Turns nightly soap. The bubbles in my bath tell a better story - without ghosts and alternate realities ... unless I drink a whole lot of wine. What are the producers drinking?

Who cares? I did not even know the show was still on the air?

I have a comment.
That suxs for the show.
Show is being poorly managed when none of the actors want to be there. ABC and ABC Studios should look at the source of the backstage problems and it ain't TR Knight. Then make those heads roll.

Because George has a huge fanbase.
I'm done without him. I'm still mad about them dropping my beautiful Gizzie love story for Izzie's latest sexcapades with that abusive jerk Alex.

I love that you have no comment -- thank you!
Ausiello reports as if his word is "official".
Well, it's not.
And since there's no official word and both ABC and TRK are not commenting, then nothing is official about Ausiello's news.
TRK and George O'Malley fans are tired of the back and forth that the entertainment media keep subjecting us to.
I am holding out for official word. I'm glad to hear you are too.
TRK is incredibly talented and such a value-add to the show. He has made George O'Malley come to life for many fans... a character who is very well-loved.
I most certainly hope to see him in Season 6 of Greys.
