Dr. Stevens, We Hardly Knew Ye

Okay, it's not certain that Katherine Heigl's character on "Grey's Anatomy" is going away next season, but if the writers have their say...she shouldn't make any long-term plans.

There's nothing more annoying than a sore winner.

Katherine Heigl of Grey's Anatomy told the Los Angeles Times this week that she has withdrawn her name from Emmy consideration, explaining "I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization, I withdrew my name from contention."

You have to wonder if she knows how pretentious and petulant this announcement makes her sound.

I'm thinking...no.

I tend to agree with former television writer Ken Levine on this one - it's fine to hate the stuff you're given, but publicly calling out the writers is somewhat unprofessional and discourteous.

If the writers have their way, Dr. Stevens will have a very bad fourth season.

Isn't she a sweetheart? She already called "Knocked Up" sexist. http://www.usmagazine.com/katherine_heigl_calls_hit_comedy_knocked_up_sexist
now she craps all over the show that made her a star in the first place.
Someone should let her know not to burn all her bridges since her future movie stardom isn't set in stone. If she needs proof she need look no further than David Caruso.

p.s. anonymous, you're implying there is a show worth watching in the first place.
