Yes!!!! Excited for these!!!! Hopefully Katherine Heigl can make a Greys appearance now that she's trying to get back on tv
ReplyDeleteThat won't happen, sadly.
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean Natasha Lyonne is leaving Orange is the new black?
ReplyDeleteYeah I know. Considering everything that's happened. Well wishful thinking. The tv landscape is changing. Plus with Christina leaving by season's end, I wanna get one last ep with all the remaining original interns :(
ReplyDeleteConsidering how Netflix works and that she's only a recurring character, her presence may be reduced in the third season but I hope she doesn't leave for good
ReplyDeleteI too miss Izzie
ReplyDeleteIf made to series, I will sample the Katherine Heighl show because I like her and it actually sounds potentially interesting.
ReplyDeleteVery much looking forward to seeing the Kathrine Heigl one - hope it's well written and quite gritty or at least full of stomach churning drama :D
ReplyDeleteShe was one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteMine too
ReplyDeleteYay for Katie and Amy! Both of these sound good.
ReplyDeleteI miss her too, but I don't see her ever returning.
ReplyDeleteI love Natasha in OITNB so her working with Amy sounds amazing
ReplyDeleteAmys show sounds hilarious!
ReplyDeleteHeigl is apparently difficult to work with so this could be interesting if it even gets picked up to series.
ReplyDeleteI reckon they film differently as well. Netflix films all in bulk while they will film part of this show and then more once they see the reception.
ReplyDeleteI agree, she and Shonda need to put their big girl knickers on and work this out for the fans. Grey's fans have had to deal with a lot of shit (George, Mark, Lexie) so this will be a nice way of bringing the old Grey's back.
