As we know, actor T.R. Knight doesn’t return for the September 24 Grey’s Anatomy season six premiere, but it appears his character, Dr. George O’Malley, will.
“Transplant doctors descend on Seattle Grace because it's revealed that George was a registered organ donor," according to a source on the Grey’s Anatomy set.
“His colleagues are still reeling from George's death and are fighting with transplant doctors to stop them from taking his lungs, liver, corneas and bone marrow."
"It's only when everyone hears what lives will be saved that George's friends start to get some perspective on his death,” says the source to Life & Style Weekly.
George's funeral scene is also said to take place early this season.
Who knows how reliable any of this actually is, but according to the source, all of the scenes with George O'Malley were shot using special effects and makeup.
"It's one of the goriest scenes they've ever done because you literally see each of these organs get pulled out of his body," says the supposed on-set insider.

is it just me or does the wording "hears what lives will be saved" make it sound like at least one the transplants is going to Izzie??? I'm sorry that's just too much!

I think the character of Marsha Plimpton will and her son will be the ones that are "the lives that will be saved" by George's organs. I don't know just guessing.

well you cannot transplant a brain since that is Izzie's problem I doubt she is getting any organs. Of course I really no longer believe any supposed news from the GA camp. I am not along in doubting what we hear since TR suggested in his EW interview lies and false information are often given to the cast and crew as well.

Izzie's heart was damaged with the high doses of chemo - that's why she was coding at the end. She may end up with his heart.

Why would they think we would want to see that? I'm still having nightmares over seeing George's face all disfigured. I love George. I want to remember him all beautiful in the uniform, not a body with organs being taken out.

This spoiler is rather disturbing-just the idea of surgeons vying for George's organs reminds me of what Owen said about doctors picking at injured people like vultures.
But I, too, immediately thought that Izzie would be a recipient of George's organs. I think the cancer spread to her liver, so she may need a new one. It would make sense that the others would be okay with the organ donation if it helped save Izzie.

LMAO, no. Izzie's heart was fine. The reason why she coded was because the potassium level in her body was too high - a condition called hyperkalemia, Cristina and Alex even mention it as Izzie is coding. With the proper medication or the potasium level can be lowered to normal levels and that's what we'll likely see happen. Izzie isn't getting any of George's organs especially since she's a CANCER patient and therefore his heart would go first to someone who is cancer-free and on the transplant list.

Isn't it bad enough that she threw him under the bus, now she wants to eviscerate and have people fight over him like vultures. God she really hated George, didn't she? But how about some respect for his fans? That's disgusting.
Poor George who was so kind died to save a girl who didn't give him the time of day after being ignored all year by his co-called friends, and now they're fighting over his organs.
That's just sick.

Yeah I thought of Izzie too...I think that is such a good way for George to atleast live on...I mean hes dead but atlest if one of the central character had his organs his legacy would live on...who knows what Shonda is scheming...Izzie has stage IV metastatic melanoma that spread to her brain and liver, and she had mets on her lungs....I'm guessin IF it's Izzie it would be the liver that she would get....that would explain a lot. Maybe they put the new organs in her before the funeral...who knows...what I DO know is WHY IS THE PREMIERE SO FAR AWAY!!!!!!!!

Organ donation is great but why do we have to see it? People donate organs all the time on shows and we don't get to see all the gory details. This is George not some livestock we get to see picked apart.
George's death has been so violent and now even his afterdeath is violent.
Doesn't Shonda think the George fans want to have their last image of George being a bloody guy whose organs are being ripped apart?
TR didn't come back because he wanted the elevator scene to be the last George scene, but it seems Shonda didn't want that.
She absolutely wanted us to see him taken apart, ripped apart, mutilated.
That's what you can't wait to see. Do you hate George that much?
I don't get how anyone could love to see a character we have loved over the last five years being torn apart limb from limb?
I won't be watching Shonda's continuous trashing and mutilation of George.
It's sick. She's sick.
