Ellen Pompeo, during a recent podcast appearance, expressed her dissatisfaction with the intimate scene between Meredith and George in Grey's Anatomy Season 2. Both she and co-star T.R. Knight felt uncomfortable filming the moment, leading to a difficult experience that resulted in multiple reshoots due to network feedback. Pompeo noted that she has never watched the scene, as it triggered genuine tears of embarrassment rather than emotional connection. She recalled feeling distressed about portraying a character who begs for love, which resonated deeply with her own experiences.
I know I'm not a world-renowned surgeon. And I know I'm not a lot of things that you have gone for in the past. But I would never leave you.
We cried. And the scene was so uncomfortable and awkward. He didn't want to do that, I didn't want to do it... it was so bad.
I'm full on in tears the whole entire scene. And those are real tears.
I'm bawling my eyes out, but not for the reasons in the scene... I can't believe that I'm on TV begging a man to love me.
