Rumor: T.R. Knight Walks Off ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Set

When we asked you which difficult Grey’s Anatomy doc was being punished with less screen time, you resoundingly guessed, “T.R. Knight” (with just one dissenter answering “Boo-urns”). Now, rumours are flying that Knight himself has reduced his screen time to zero by walking off the show entirely.

Blogger Crazy Days and Nights posted word that Knight had walked off the show this morning, then later filled in his scoop:

So, I got a little more information from my source and they say, “He hasn’t attended table reads since episode 2. He is pissed and miserable and thinks his story line is stupid. He said goodbye to his hair and makeup people last week. He says he is done and has quit. ABC has not released him. Shondra Rhimes, the producer called him and he told her he had nothing to say. He has packed his dressing room.” That is all the information we have at this time.

If true, Knight may find leaving the show difficult — after all, EW reported that he had already renegotiated a pay raise going into this season. Still, once a gaywashing has begun, it’s hard to stop. Brain aneurysms for everybody!
