We've been poking fun at Katherine Heigl for months now, and with good reason: she just can't stop saying the darndest things about her emasculated husband Joshua Kelley, she is completely lacking gaydar ... frankly, this list could go on for hours. But after hearing the news that Heigl is pushing for an escape from the ratings-challenged Grey's Anatomy following a fiscally successful contract renegotiation later made public, we're inching towards Team Heigl for the first time. As a source tells MSNBC:

Not only does Katherine Heigl lack the sensitivity gene when it comes to her marital bliss, but she's also missing a hefty dose of gaydar. Before her Grey's Anatomy co-star T.R. Knight was sweetly outed by since-fired Isaiah Washington, Katie apparently had a big ol' schoolgirl crush on him during the first season. And in standard Heigl fashion, she simply couldn't comprehend why T.R. wasn't showering her with affection after weeks of batting her lashes and sending out ostentatious signals. As The Sun quotes Katie:

Before beginning a speech that was to be about how the American public school system needs to improve the quality of sex education classes, Kate Walsh said, "I should know a thing or two about medicine since I've played a doctor on two consecutive hit TV shows, and I also attended Katherine Heigl's wedding." Then Walsh went on a long and rambling diatribe that bore more resemblance to a String Cheese Incident concert than the speech her publicist had prepared. Walsh railed on topics like the crippling impact the WGA strike had her show, Private Practice, Will Ferrell's body odor, the Jonas Brothers' eyebrows situation, health care in America, the appeal of Tracey Ullman and the inability to find a decent piece of red velvet cake in Southern California.

Justin Chambers, of Grey's Anatomy "fame", is one of those actors you have a really tough time figuring out whether you'd rather slap across the face or take him home for a one-night stand. In the end, of course, you'd like to do both. But after reading this story regarding his behavior while going out solo in Palm Springs this week, we're more inclined to team up with his wife Keisha, don The Bride's yellow onesies and stage a formal attack directed by Tarantino. (Maybe Rodriguez could even lend us a machine gun leg-strap-on?) According to Star:

To celebrate her inability to quit smoking and the further emasculation of Joshua, the Grey's Anatomy star intends on proudly gorging herself on an entire box of double fudge brownies and cupcakes. If you can't beat it, eat it.

In a stunning victory for lovers of linear medical serials peopled by a variety of horny doctors prone to solipsistic monologue-delivery over aficionados of tropical sci-fi adventures with a penchant for adding confounding new plot elements without explaining the significance of the approximately two dozen such elements introduced prior, ABC has announced a Thursday night programming shift. The network will be returning Grey's Anatomy to the prime, Thursday-at-9 spot on their post-strike schedule, bumping Lost to the less-desirable 10 p.m. slot:

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! We feel a little guilty about not having gotten you anything since that Law & Order card two years ago, so we made sure to get an early start this year combing the internets for just the right, costless gesture to show you how much you mean to us. Luckily, ABC's website had plenty of Valentine's options. Some of us gravitated to the sensual mystery of their Lost series, but for our money, nothing said romance like the horny doctors of Grey's Anatomy. Above, we've placed Seattle Grace's attending physicians side by side, in a McMindblowing battle for your affections. But for Grey's purists who like their cast Valentine's Day card collections complete, we've mocked one up featuring the second season's most conspicuously absent member. It's after the jump—and remember, everyone: We choo-choo-choose you!

In a Suspicious Celebrity Growth Exclusive, Grey's Anatomy star Eric Dane shares with OK! magazine the harrowing experience of having learned that a melanoma had developed on his lip. Noticing a patch of what he thought was just chapped skin on his mouth, the actor credits the writers strike with allowing him the time to call a doctor and have check it checked out. (Yay, writers strike!) Little could he have known then of the topical ointment horrors to follow:

Breaking! Horny TV doctors show support for striking writers! Says a tipster: "Cast of Grey's Anatomy outside protesting ABC Prospect Studios right now in their blue gowns. Heigl, Dempsey....they're all out there." Actually, we're told Dempsey isn't wearing his scrubs, a wardrobe failure that potentially could hamper a lovestruck picketer's ability to flesh out his or her fantasy of sneaking off with McDreamy for a quickie show of solidarity in the back of a temporarily unused production van.

Stop us if you think you've heard this one before: A Grey's Anatomy star, embroiled in a behind-the-scenes controversy that simply refuses—despite the best efforts of millions across the globe, holding aloft bottles of Coke and singing about TV-doctor harmony—to die, has taped an important message about tolerance for GLAAD. Only this time, it's not Isaiah "Bigger Than Jesus and Barack" Washington doing the talking, but his velvety nemesis, T.R. Knight.

Isaiah Washington, now a member of Bionic Woman's big happy family, is never too busy to shatter the deafening, one-day silence that followed his ouster from Grey's Anatomy at the hands of a shadowy cabal of moustache-twirling gay foes. Speaking to Extra, the actor delivered a curiously roundabout answer to a question about whether or not potential Bionic viewers might be turned off by his year of very bad press:

Reluctant martyr for all bullied gay TV doctors T.R. Knight returned to The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, eight months after sitting in the very same seat to jumpstart his Evil Gay Mastermind plot to undo his McThreateningy co-star, Isaiah Washington. In that time, T.R. appears to have relaxed a great deal, having had some time to acclimate to his new out status and fully savor the bottomless pit of emptiness that accompanies entering the L.A. gay dating pool.

While gabby Grey's Anatomy gay-conspiracy victim Isaiah Washington finds himself running out of media outlets willing to let him break his silence yet again about the shadowy machinations that led to his dismissal from the hit show (really, once you've chatted with Star Jones in football metaphors, there's nowhere left to go), reporters are begging Grey's slur-survivor T.R. Knight to say something, anything, about the F-Bomb That Continues To Rock The World of Primetime Television Nearly A Year After The Fact. But not even a bottomless basket of garlic knots and untold glasses of honor-bar chianti at one of Venice's finest family-style Italian eateries could entice the actor to abandon the high road he's so committed to traveling, as the LAT discovered recently:

By now, we thought that former Grey's Anatomy star Isaiah Washington serial silence- breakings about the turbulent events of his recent career would be yielding diminishing returns, with nothing he could offer at this point possibly topping the virtuoso gay-conspiracy theories and McDreamy character assassinations to which we've been treated since his firing. But we were wrong. So very, very wrong. In an interview with EW.com meant to clarify the timeline of his controversial addition to the cast of Bionic Woman, Washington recounts the amazing speed with which newly installed NBC rock star Ben Silverman moved to adopt him into his network family once he discovered that the actor had been disowned by ABC. We pick up the narrative at the Chateau Marmont, where Ozwald "House of" Boateng, upon hearing that his buddy Isaiah needed a new job, set into motion the following series of completely fucking insane events:

As Isaiah Washington continues to unleash a tsunami of silence-breakings upon a public that has long since ceased to care about the vast, gay-winged conspiracy responsible for his dismissal from Grey's Anatomy, one key player who has succeeded in not speaking about the controversy was series creator Shonda Rhimes—that is, until yesterday's press-tour panel for Grey's spinoff Private Practice, when the EP was cornered by a pack of quote-hungry reporters who wouldn't take "no comment" for an answer. According to an interview with TVGuide.com, the weary showrunner was on the same page as her ABC overlords when she made the fatal call:

With the announcement that gay-slur-spouting primetime orphan Isaiah Washington was placed into Bionic Woman foster care by NBC rock-star/case-worker Ben Silverman, the actor's mood went from a volatile Mad As Hell And Not Going To Take It Anymore to Quietly Vindicated, But Still Wanting to Break My Silence a Few More Times. After a recent Larry King Live appearance in which Washington reassured America of his enduring admiration of Gays, the actor went on to explain to Access Hollywood how the real villain—aside, of course, from mastermind T.R. Knight, pulling his pink puppet strings from on-high—was Patrick "McEvil" Dempsey:

• Isaiah Washington: Gay's Anatomy [iklipz.com]

On last night's edition of Larry King Live, CNN's in-house confessor to the disgraced Hollywood stars played host to the latest stop of embattled former TV surgeon Isaiah Washington's Breaking the Silence: I'm Mad As Hell And Not Going to Take It Anymore Tour, on which the controversially non-renewed Grey's Anatomy actor, freed of an apparent ABC/Disney gag order by his dismissal from the show, is taking to the media again and again to inform the public about the myriad conspiratorial forces (racism, gay puppetmasters, etc etc) that led to his being cast out of horny-doctor Eden.
