T.R. Knight is Leaving Grey's Anatomy, I Stopped Watching Just in Time

How big is T.R. Knight's ego?

Grey's Anatomy jumped the shark the moment they fired Isaiah Washington. Then they let Brooke Smith go because she played a lesbian, now T.R. Knight is requesting to be written off the show and producers are complying. I refuse to watch a show that screws with its audience like this, and the actors should have more tightly written contracts because T.R. and Katherine Heigl keep trying to weasel themselves out of it.

T.R. Knight has asked producers to write him off the hit medical drama.

While details of his exit have yet to be ironed out, a source close to the situation says that it seems likely Knight's request will be granted and he will be released from his contract.

So why does Knight, who remains a fan favorite, want to leave?

"Have you seen the show lately?" says the source. Knight has received little screen time this season, with the show focusing on controversial storylines like the romance between Katherine Heigl's Izzie and her long-dead lover, Denny.

"It's time to move on," says the source. "It just feels like this is the right time to go."

T.R. is a child. He shouldn't turn on a show that put him on the map because he's unhappy with some scripts. Take a cold shower and get over it! Katherine Heigl's stank is rubbing off on him and turning him into an ungrateful wench. Plus T.R. looks short and I don't get the sense that he's a versatile actor, either. Sometimes you don't know a good thing until it's gone, T.R., good luck with getting that Oscar. I look forward to watching you in all the good roles you're confident will come your way.
