Big-time Hollywood star and renowned pleasant person to work with Katherine Heigl will return to Grey’s Anatomy next season, according to someone who cared enough to find out.

Although ABC and ABC Studios won’t officially declare that Katherine Heigl will return for a full season next year,  sources close to “Grey’s Anatomy” said today that the actress will return to the medical show for the last year of her contract.

When viewers last saw Izzie, she was enticing her BFF, George (T.R. Knight), to join her in what was presumably the last elevator ride of both their lives since Izzie has terminal cancer and George got hit by a bus. Well, the elevator appears to have saved Izzie, but George, not so much. [L.A. Times]

Not that you or I care, because we don’t, but Knight himself confirmed he won’t be returning to “Grey’s.”  So we lose George but keep Izzie.  Gosh, this changes everything for me.  Now I’ll still not have to watch.
