I SUPPORT BROOKE!!
Brooke Smith, has played a great role in the series Grey's Anatomy. Her interpretation in the chapter 5x06 deserves an Emmy.
Dismissing an excellent professional shows, that you are blinded by prejudice.
Actions like these make the fans and buyers are no longer fans and buyers.
I support this petition. Although I have been a fan of the show since the first season, I plan to no longer watch it until or unless Grey's and ABC reverse their attempts to "de-gay" the show by writing off the character of Erica Hahn and changing the storyline of new character Melissa George. At least it will make it easier to catch first run episodes of "Supernatural" on the CW.
I support this petition. Before, Shonda Rhimes said Callie and Erica have chemistry. Now she's saying they dont have Chemistry...?????? Bring Back Hahn. You dont fire her becoz of the storyline you made for her. She is a Great Actress. You dont have to remove her character totally just change the storyline! She was fired for doing what she was told to do. You should fire the writer and not the actress who has no control of her character. Bring Brooke Smith Back!
I support this petition. Please bring her back, and make your gay and lesbian viewers happy. I wouldn't want to think that one of my favorite shows didn't have a place for someone like me.
If the relationship between Dr. Hahn and Cali wasn't working or you wanted to do more with either of the characters, then end the relationship. To completely take a great character out of such a fantastic program doesn't make any sense to me. I understood releasing Isaiah Washington when the environment began to go toxic between the cast but it is my understanding that this was not the case with Brooke Smith. The character was a brilliant addition to the storyline, she was struggling with both personal and professional growth (who can't relate to that?) while trying to find her place in a close group of friends/co-workers. And Brooke's performances were exceptional! Her "You are glasses" scene was outstanding!!
Again, I'm not so quick to believe that this is a gay issue, I believe that collectively we are past that. I simply cannot resolve why removing the character entirely was necessary.
Please, bring Erica Hahn (Brooke Smith) back!!
What ABC has done is unconscionable. While it appears that having straight characters on "Grey's Anatomy" sleep with each other indiscriminately and without any mention of contraception, disease, or emotional consequences, the network apparently cannot tolerate the depiction of a mature lesbian relationship that was heading towards monogamy. Not only that, actress Brooke Smith is now out of a job through no fault of her own, with only one week's notice; the network brass didn't even have the decency to inform her of the decision themselves.
This decision needs to be reconsidered. If not, Ms. Smith should, by all means, seek court action.
I support this Petition. Brooke Smith is fired? What did she do? It's not the actor's fault that the writers came up with this plot line. Brooke did what she was told to do for Greys anatomy then they fire her??! SOooo Bad!! @#@%$ She is a Great Actress. I hope that ABC would reconsider and bring her back to GA.
I support this petition.
Grey's Anatomy actions here are highly suspect. Be honest about why you dumped Hahn. And you could have ended the stroy line with some grace. What was the rush?
