The fate of ABC: Black is the new Grey's

While Grey's has certainly died off for many viewers over the years what with the random outbreak of Burke (Isaiah Washington) and then the quick and sudden death of dear George (T.R. Knight) as a result, it's no wonder our next favorite character would go as well. Beloved Izze (Katherine Heigl) who we watched take over TV as everyone's best friend, who we cried with when Denny died; she made the show worth watching. After months of hiatus, both Izze and Katherine, were goners. In real life, Katherine started the most adorable family and took over the silver screen on low-rating but always cute, romantic comedies. (Nothing can top "Knocked Up").

So where will this newly brunette diva go from here?

Honestly, at this point, all she can do is UP. With the dying heartbeat of Grey's, I think we can all agree it's only a matter of time before Meredith is the last one standing.

And on that note, who else is ABC letting go? Rumors confirmed Rob Lowe was moving on from his loving family on "Brothers and Sisters". one of the few dozen who probably still adhere to the show and one of the few (at least in my house) who HATE Robert's character, it's still a twisted fate. As character wife to skinny Calista Flockhart, we're wondering if she will evaporate into thin air once she's left alone. No word on just how Robert's character will be taking the leap but there's only so many episodes left....

So, with the end of Ugly Betty, almost-president Robert McCallister, and much-love Katherine Heigl, where will ABC go from here?

Thank god for saviors in the newbie shows like hilarious "Cougar Town" and "Modern Family". These quick wit writers and producers should put their comedy up against their dramas and give "Good Morning America" something to be proud of.
