T.R. Knight has asked to be released from his contract with “Grey’s Anatomy.”
The actor, who plays Dr. George O’Malley, is exiting the hit medical drama because he is unhappy with his storyline, an insider confirmed. Knight has three years left on his contract and the network has indicated they will release him, said the insider, who could not be identified because they were not authorized to discuss negotiation details
An ABC representative declined comment.
Entertainment Weekly magazine first reported news of Knight’s request Tuesday in a posting at ew.com. Writer Michael Ausiello quoted a person at ABC who was not identified as saying that the show and “Grey’s” creator Shonda Rhimes were prepared to let the 35-year-old actor go.
The show has gone so downhill, they should just cancel it altogether.
