If you’re a fan of Patrick Dempsey’s original fragrance “Unscripted,” you may be interested to know that this upcoming November will see the release of a second cologne by the Grey’s Anatomy actor, aptly called 2.

Why ‘2′? While it would appear an obvious answer, considering it’s the second in the line, the reason for the name is a bit more romantic.

Patrick Dempsey himself tells us what it means: “It’s about the intimacy of two people and the strength you get in a relationship. I thought, why don’t we just go with ‘2′ and make this about being a couple.”

The fragrance features the following ingredients: mandarin, nutmeg, accord, patchouli and spiced wood. This should make a really nice holiday gift for a special someone in your life. And it’s relatively affordable at $35 a 2.5 oz bottle.

Look for ‘2′ this fall, courtesy of Avon.

The rumors were there when we posted about T.R. Knight’s unfortunate departure from Grey’s Anatomy, but Ausiello has now officially confirmed that George is headed off to Broadway. Knight has signed on to star in the Broadway revival of Lend Me a Tenor.

There’s not a lot of information about the play quite yet, as additional casting is still unnanounced. But we know that T.R. Knight will be playing the role of Max and that Stanley Tucci will be directing. You might recognize some of his work in Kiss of Death, Big Night and Road to Perdition. If you missed those, you might recognize him as the art director from The Devil Wears Prada. He’ll also be playing the murderer in Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of The Lovely Bones, which I believe is due out in December 2009.

The play, on the other hand, opens February 2010.

This is all bittersweet news for Grey’s fans, as we’re going to miss T.R. Knight/George dearly in our show, but it’s always good to know that we can still head over to New York and see him perform. I’m sure he’ll be getting the same support from the Grey’s cast as Chandra Wilson.

I’ve mentioned before that Katherine Heigl is starring in the upcoming romantic comedy The Ugly Truth. The film premieres on July 24, so it’s almost around the corner. Hope you circled it in you calendars. And for those of you that are really looking forward to the movie, here’s a few stills from the set to keep you excited about seeing Izzie Katherine Heigl again.

For those not looking forward to the movie, why not? Are romance comedies not your thing, or do you not think this one is worth the price of admission?

For those wondering what Justin Chambers has been up to during his off time from Grey’s Anatomy, here’s a photographic peek. He and his lovely wife Keisha hopped on over to Hawaii to relax in the sun.

Not a bad way to spend a vacation, I’d say! Not sure how long they were there, but from the photos it looks like they had a blast. Hopefully that means we’ll have a well-rested Alex at the start of season six.

Enjoy the photos!

I think that Katherine Heigl must reside in a different plane of existence, within which days are actually twice as long as they are for the rest of us. That, or the woman doesn’t sleep. She’s got projects lined up, one after the other: The Ugly Truth premieres next month, and she was just in France shooting Five Killers. She’s all set to go on season six of Grey’s Anatomy and now she’s signed up not only to star but also to produce the upcoming big screen drama Life As We Know It. Busy, busy.

Word from insiders assures us fans that her work on the latest film shouldn’t impact her role in next season’s Grey’s. After all, Heigl’s something of a pro at juggling all these roles simultaneously.

For those interested in her latest project, Life As We Know It is about a woman and a man who lose their best friends in a car accident. They are then left to raise their friends’ daughter. Sounds like the kind of movie that requires keeping a box of tissues handy.

The news about season six of Grey’s Anatomy has been a bit extremist lately. On the one hand, there’s the really good news about who’s staying, and the really bad news about who’s leaving. So I’m sure for a lot of us, season six sounds bittersweet. For some, I’m sure, more bitter than sweet, and others more sweet than bitter, depending entirely on how you feel about the actors/characters involved.

I’d like to remind everyone that simply because an actor is leaving the show, that doesn’t mean their character’s fate is sealed. It’s entirely possible that George might survive and simply be written to leave the hospital. Then again, it’s also entirely possible that it’s bye bye forever.

Assuming you’re in the bitter camp, will you still be tuning into the season six premiere to see what happens? Or are you officially done with the show? Are there some of you sitting on the fence? Drop your thoughts about season six in the comments!

For those of you itching for a little bit more of Katherine Heigl, here’s a reminder that she’s starring in the romantic comedy The Ugly Truth alongside Gerard Butler. The film premieres in theaters everywhere on July 24, so the wait is almost over!

In the film, Heigl plays Abby Richter a “romantically challenged” morning show producer who gets teamed up with Mike Chadway (Gerard Butler), a “hardcore TV personality who promises to spill the ugly truth on what makes men and women tick.”

Sounds like a light, funny movie and something fun to catch on a Friday night date. Don’t confuse this with Five Killers in which she stars alongside Ashton Kutcher. Will let you know when that one’s ready to premiere as well.

On the heels of the tragic news that T.R. Knight is leaving Seattle Grace (probably for good), comes the really great news that Katherine Heigl is staying on. What does this mean for season six? Well, there’s no guarantees of anything when it comes to the storyline and what happens to the characters, but actors leaving and staying on is usually a good indication about what happens to their fictional counterparts.

The way things are looking: George dies, Izzie lives.

As saddened as I am that any of them has to die, I think I would’ve been more surprised if the outcome had been any different. But I know a lot of you were thinking/hoping that George would be the one to survive and Izzie would head through the exit doors.

This is a pretty major development for the series. When season six airs, we’ll be missing one of the core characters that made Grey’s Anatomy the show it is today. Do you think that T.R. Knight/George being gone from the show will mean the end of the series as we know it? Will you stop watching all together or is Izzie’s survival enough to keep you glued to the screen?

Today is a good news, terrible news sort of day. So now that we know the bad news, here goes some good news for those of you that think of this as good news: Jessica Capshaw has officially been made a series regular.

ABC has rolled out the welcome mat to our favorite peds surgeon. That should make our dear Callie very happy. I think she’s had enough heartache for a while, don’t you think?

Now this isn’t terribly shocking news, as her promotion’s been in the air for a while, but it’s now finally official, and that’s always something to celebrate. So hopefully that will cheer some of you up.

Congratulations to Jessica Capshaw. This certainly makes us Arizona fans very happy.

While we’re still a ways away from the season six premiere of Grey’s Anatomy, sources from above have confirmed that ABC has granted T.R. Knight a release from his contract.

What does this mean for George? I’m afraid that the news is grim. Though many fans seem to still think the character could live on in another actor’s body, Rhimes has laughed off the rumor, which presumably means that George does not survive the accident.

It does however sound like Shonda & Co. would’ve liked to have Knight around for three episodes next season, but that could not be worked out. Which means that we may very well have seen the last of George/T.R. Knight at Seattle Grace.

Sad news.

For T.R. Knight fans, the actor is in talks to return to the Broadway stage for the revival of Lend Me a Tenor in 2010.

How do you feel about the departure? And what do you think it means for Izzie?
