DID ABC DROP AN ALLEGEDLY BITCHY ACTRESS- BECAUSE THE CHEMISTRY OF THE LESBIAN RELATIONSHIP- WASN'T WORKING OUT?
Brooke Smith was dropped on Grey's Anatomy, because allegedly her chemistry with Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez) was seemingly strianed and passionless. The network saw the ratings freefall to the point, CBS powerhouse CSI- regained the lead over the feminist medical drama.
"I really hoped we were going to show what happens when two women
fall in love and that they were going to treat it like any heterosexual couple
on TV. And so I was surprised and disappointed when they just suddenly told me
that they couldn't write for my character anymore," stated Smith.
Creator/Show runner Shonra Rimes:"Brooke Smith was obviously not fired for playing a lesbian. Clearly it's not an
issue as we have a lesbian character on the show – Calliope Torres. Sara Ramirez
is an incredible comedic and dramatic actress and we wanted to be able to play
up her magic. Unfortunately, we did not find that the magic and chemistry with
Brooke's character would sustain in the long run. The impact of the Callie/Erica
relationship will be felt and played out in a story for Callie. I believe it
belittles the relationship to simply replace Erica with 'another lesbian.' If
you'll remember, Cristina mourned the loss of Burke for a full season."
Critics are disturbed, that the decision was reached while in CA,the controversial pro-straight, marriage proposition was being decided. Also, L.A. Times reporter Mary McNamara offered this theory:
"I suspect what irked whoever made the call… [was] not that they were both women
— good heavens, how dull — but that they were, how shall we say, average size.
With hips, you know, and actual breasts. Not two girly waifs exchanging a stolen
kiss or a grope in the women's room stall over a line of coke, not an
androgynous club kid putting her best moves on some sitcom heroine. But two
women of substance, physically and psychologically, falling in love and talking
about it way too much, the way women tend to do."

MARCIA ELIMINATED- FROM BRADY WEEK ON TRIVIAL PURSUIT:America Plays!
Source-GSNN.com
In light of Maureen McCormick's new book, where she reveals her decent into drug use and dating comic icon Steve Martin(while barely legal) Marcia! X 3 was edited out of her appearance on the struggling You Tube-esque game show.
The other “Brady Bunch” siblings — Greg, Peter, Bobby, Jan and Cindy — will be playing the game on Nov. 10.
Technically, Peter (Christopher Knight, that is) will be hosting the show. That’s been Knight’s gig since the nationally-syndicated game show based on the popular board game began Sept. 22.
Barry Williams (Greg), Mike Lookinland (Bobby), Eve Plumb (Jan) and Susan Olsen (Cindy) will take turns being captains for “America’s Team.” They will represent the viewers at home who submit trivia used on the show. Rumors have begun circulating- that other network shows like Chuck and Terminator:Sarah Conner Chronicles are being contacted about being on the show.
“Brady Week” culminates on Nov. 14 with a Brady competition.
To submit questions for “Trivial Pursuit,” go to www.tpamericaplays.com. For every question the in-studio constants answer correctly, the winnings go into the “Studio Bank.” But if “America’s Team” has more money in its bank after three rounds, all the viewers who submitted questions that day get the cash. The winnings for each show, average between $10K-$21,000.
