GA is Scandalous!
By AmandaLand | December 31, 2009 | 
TV Squad made a list of the top TV scandals of this decade, and Grey’s made the list.
More of our best of the decade coverage, which started earlier today. You can read the other posts at the link above. Here, we talk about the decade’s biggest TV scandals.
Who doesn’t like a little drama? We love it here at TV Squad. Of course, its usually the scripted kind that we obsess over, not the real-life variety. But it was hard to escape all of the behind-the-scenes scandals going on during the Aughts.
The backstage drama often spilled out onto the tube, in talk show interviews, reality series, and with the 24-hour news networks looking to fill time and boost their ratings. Needless to say, we had little trouble picking our top TV scandals of the ’00s.
Grey’s Anatomy‘s behind-the-scenes scandals
Isabelle says: Since the series premiered in March 2005, there has been almost as much drama on the show than there has been behind the scenes. It was scandal after scandal for the Grey’s Anatomy cast once Isaiah Washington got the ball rolling by saying nasty things to then co-star T.R. Knight, an event that almost ended in a fight between Washington and Patrick Dempsey
Subsequent Grey’s scandals and drama included: The Golden Globes fiasco, Washington being fired from the show, T.R. Knight having to confirm that he is gay due to Washington’s comments, Katherine Heigl pulling her name from Emmy consideration due to lack of good storylines, the still on-going issue about whether or not Heigl will leave the show, T.R. Knight leaving the series, Brooke Smith leaving the series, etc., etc., etc. There has been so much drama off the set that ABC could even shoot a reality series set behind the scenes! As Grey’s Anatomy Turns?

Yahoo?????
While it’s all publicity for the show for sure…. all this article does is represent the horrible parts of it, the negatives. “Yahoo” just doesn’t spring to my mind when I read this… sorry.

aka. all the reasons i stopped watching the show until promos from the mer der wedding that wasn’t peaked my curiousity again. Once the whole isiahgate scandal started, the focus went from ‘this is an awesome show with awesome characters and amazing storylines’ to behind the scenes drama. The onscreen chemistry with the characters was awesome. It sucked knowing that they were having so much drama behind the scenes.
