Now you’ve done it, Isiah Washington. You’ve pissed off Doogie Howser. Neil Patrick Harris is throwing his former MD-ness into the Grey’s Anatomy fray. Harris, who shocked no one when he announced his sexual preference just weeks after TR Knight, has spoken out about Isiah Washington’s politically way incorrect slur. From TV Guide: “T.R. has proven himself to be an incredibly classy, dignified guy,” [Neil Patrick Harris] told me. “I’m impressed that Katherine Heigl said what she said. I was shocked that it all reared its ugly head again.” Harris — who came out just weeks after Knight — wouldn’t comment on what form Washington’s “punishment” should take. “It’s impossible for me to make any kind of comment about that because I wasn’t there when it happened. It’s just disappointing that it’s… cyclical.” Meanwhile, the word from the Grey’s set is that Washington’s problems extend far beyond his affinity for a certain derogatory f-word. Per a source, his behavior has been so “inappropriate and offensive” for so long that producers have often been forced to intervene. Isiah Washington is letting success go to his head. He has a great role on a hit series, but the man would be smart to remember that he ain’t George Clooney and the road from the Grey’s Anatomy to Bounty commercials can be very short. |
