Katherine Heigl Pissed At The
GREY’S ANATOMY Writers??

I am – Hercules!!



Is ABC’s megahit “Grey’s Anatomy” one the worst-written shows on television? I’ve always thought so, and now it turns out star Katherine Heigl – who won an Emmy for her work on the series – wasn’t that thrilled with the scripts herself this season.

From The Associated Press:

"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" decided against competing, Heigl said in a written statement provided by her publicist, Melissa Kates, who was contacted by the AP.

"In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials," added Heigl. She plays Dr. Izzie Stevens on "Grey's Anatomy," which slipped in the ratings this past season but remained a top 10 show.

Heigl is the “Grey’s” player with the biggest movie career, having earned raves as the pregnant lead in the Judd Apatow/Seth Rogen blockbuster “Knocked Up.”

Read the AP’s story on the matter here.
