So much for that…

Say goodbye to the Callie/Erica storyline on Grey’s Anatomy, because after this week, it’s gone.  That’s right: gone. 

Brook Smith, the actress who plays Erica Hahn, has been fired from the show, and THIS THURSDAY NIGHT will be her final episode.  (Full story HERE.) According to Smith, she’s not even properly written out of the show:

“My final scene is just me heading to my car. I honestly don’t know what happens in the next episode.”

Apparently, things were getting a little too gay for ABC.  Smith being fired isn’t the only change – AfterEllen reports that ABC is also going to de-gay a new character named Sadie who was originally slated to be a bisexual intern with some sort of history with Meredith.

This doesn’t even make any sense!  This is ABC we’re talking about, home of Ugly Betty – aka Possibly The Gayest Show in History!  I guess gay characters are okay until they start having like, real emotions and relationships, like, you know, human beings?

I’m so disappointed.  I was really looking forward to watching the Callie and Erica romance unfold – not to mention the fact that lesbian or no, Erica Hahn was a such a great, strong female character.

Feel free to contact ABC and tell them what you think of this.
