I felt very protective of Izzie, shetoldUSA Today.

I really loved her.

I felt she was an admirable woman who certainly made mistakes.

But I was starting to not like her, and that bothered me.

That Katherine Heigl there really is no telling what polarizing thing shes going to say or do next.

I realized it was ridiculous.

Nothing wrong with speaking your mind.

Im going to respectfully disagree with her, however, on Izzies non-likability.

Namely: hooking up with George, played by her off-screen bestie T.R.

Remember how adorably devoted she was to planning a dream wedding from her hospital bed for Derek and Meredith?

Or how affecting she was during her graveside breakdown at Georges funeral?

Because Heigl wanted to leave the show.

But maybe Im forgetting something, remembering Izzie more fondly than she deserves.

What do you think, PopWatchers?

Did Izzie grow as unlikeable as Heigl says?
