Isaiah Washington, aka Dr. Preston Burke on Grey's Anatomy, will not be returning next season - his contract has not been renewed. Washington was at the center of controversy this past season when his anti-gay remarks, which he later publicly said he was "sorry and embarrassed" about making.

I am conflicted. I liked that character, and I really didn't groove on the way his storyline ended. I don't know if you watch the show or if you're just posting nooz, but right up until he was Crazy von Churchwedding, I really liked Burke.

But, yeah....kind of douchey, generally. Guess PC rehab (PC-hab?) didn't do much good. (I'm torn between being happy he was the example set that this is not OK, but I'm enough of a treehugger that I'm like, "But...but...he TRIED!") :)

I liked Burke until he turned into a flaming shitwad, which was sometime during the whole tremor storyline. So I'm glad he's gone in that respect. Too bad about Washington being a dink, cuz he's a good actor.

Yeah, actually, the tremor period was not his best time. He was quite dinkish there.

He is going to try and clean up his image by staring ins a new show "Gay's Antaomy" and has released a statment in which he said he; "Loves Queers, thats the rigth word isn't?"
