Happy April Fool’s Day!
No, I’m not going to play a nasty trick on you like I did last year. Can you believe I am STILL getting terrified comments about that one? Yikes.
Mainly I want to discuss Izzie. What do we think guys? Is she staying or going? Do you want her to stay or go?
I completely believe that Grey’s has finally turned a corner and is back on track. I know most of us were ambivalent about the first part of the season. And definitely there was a mixed reaction to the dead Denny storyline. But now that Izzie has been diagnosed and is being treated, the show feels like its emotional center is back on track. The Izzie story is impacting everyone – from George to Derek to even the Chief. I’m anxious to see what the conclusion of it is.
Meanwhile, Katherine Heigl may not be so sure she wants to leave the show after all. Many news outlets picked up her statements of uncertainty. But, really, is there any way she could not know what is going to happen to Izzie? There are contracts to be signed and storylines to wrap up. So even though she said, “I was assuming that [my character's days were numbered] at one point and I got a lot of shrugged shoulders and shakes of the head, so I don’t know if that’s a yes or a no. No one will tell me and I don’t know how this is going to go. I don’t know if I live or die. I don’t know how Izzie fares” I’m not buying that she doesn’t know. And I’m starting to think that some of this has been planned to keep the fans guessing.
What do you think? And do you want Izzie to stay or go?

I want her to stay - it just won’t be the same without her. Grey’s is finally getting its groove back and they need to keep it!
