Daytime Confidential - Erica Hahn en Was Brooke Smith's last episode on Grey's a fitting send off? <div class="fb-social-like-widget"><fb:like href="" send="true" layout="button_count" show_faces="true" width="350" action="like" font="verdana" colorscheme="light"></fb:like></div><!-- google_ad_section_start --><div class="field field-type-text field-field-body"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <!--paging_filter--><div><span><img height="270" width="480" src="" alt="" /></p> <p>I admit it, I loved the character of Erica Hahn on <em>Grey's Anatomy</em>. It took me a while to warm up to her, but the actress won me over. That's why it really gets my goat that <strong>Brooke Smith</strong> was let go.&nbsp; </p> <p>The official line is that the &ldquo;magic and chemistry&rdquo; wasn't sustainable long-term, but hell, both Izzie and George were trashed as characters and they still had opportunities to gel with other people on the canvas.&nbsp;Yeah, I know they&rsquo;ve been there since the beginning. It still makes me mad.</p> <p></span><span>For Erica, there was an interesting vibe with Cristina. They were so alike, and at the same time at odds. There was a lot of untapped potential there &ndash; every story doesn&rsquo;t need to have sex at its core. Although, having said that, an Erica/Cristina love story could have been amazing. Two power-house actresses and convincing onscreen chemistry, what could go wrong? Oh, yeah, they&rsquo;d pull the plug on it, that&rsquo;s what.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></div> </div> </div> </div> <form action="/taxonomy/term/1745/0/feed" accept-charset="UTF-8" method="post" id="poll-view-voting"> <div><div class="poll"> <div class="vote-form"> <div class="choices"> <div class="form-radios"><div class="form-item" id="edit-choice-0-wrapper"> <label class="option" for="edit-choice-0"><input type="radio" id="edit-choice-0" name="choice" value="0" class="form-radio" /> Yes</label> </div> <div class="form-item" id="edit-choice-1-wrapper"> <label class="option" for="edit-choice-1"><input type="radio" id="edit-choice-1" name="choice" value="1" class="form-radio" /> No</label> </div> </div> </div> <input type="submit" name="op" id="edit-vote" value="Vote" class="form-submit" /> </div> <input type="hidden" name="form_build_id" id="form-7ebff30e956069e4e4b86c356b7466dc" value="form-7ebff30e956069e4e4b86c356b7466dc" /> <input type="hidden" name="form_id" id="edit-poll-view-voting" value="poll_view_voting" /> </div> </div></form> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Brooke Smith Erica Hahn Grey's Anatomy Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:50:11 +0000 Darren Lomas 4372 at
