George O'Malley
Played by: T. R. KnightBio
When we first got to know Dr. O'Malley, he harbored a secret crush on Meredith, with whom he shares a house, from day one. George also has a host of other insecurities. His positive outlook on life, and the fact that he is more emotional than most men, often lead to conflict with other doctors.
George doesn't fit in with his own family, either. A Thanksgiving hunting trip resulted in a George unloading a lot of emotional baggage during a conversation with his blue-collar dad and brothers (one of whom later shot the dad, forcing George to operate).
A friend and confidant of Izzie, George won praise among the entire hospital staff for saving a man's life in an elevator during a power failure. With Dr. Burke talking him through it, George stopped the bleeding in a patient's heart single-handedly after Alex choked under pressure.
After great inner strife, he admitted his feelings for Meredith and slept with her in a moment of peak vulnerability for both. After some disastrous fallout, he moved out of her house and onto Dr. Burke's sofa. He remained there until Season Two came to a close - and he found a spot in bed next to his girlfriend, Callie Torres.
In the hospital basement.
Season Three was a tough one on George O'Malley. His father had a heart surgery, then succumbed to cancer. He and Callie broke up, then married in an impromptu Las Vegas ceremony. Then he drunkenly slept with his best friend, Izzie, and has doubted his future with Callie ever since. No one knows where the carousel that is George's personal life will stop, but one thing is for sure - it's a bumpy ride.

Quotes
Bailey: Not now O'Malley.
George: No, it'll be quick 'cause I gotta get to the OR to scrub in with the Chief. I think you're gonna be mad at first, but I'm about to do something important. And, I'm very sure about this decision. And, I think eventually you're gonna be proud. But you know, before that you're probably gonna be like "What did you do!" I'm... I don't mean to imitate you.
Bailey: You call that quick?
George: I joined the Army to be a trauma surgeon, I report for duty tomorrow.
Bailey: YOU DID WHAT?
George: Yeah, thats where I thought we'd start.

Love George. He's adorable. Love his character. T.R. Knight is my favorite.

I've noticed in the last couple of episodes that Georges character has been kind of ignored. Has anyone else noticed that? It's really starting to bug me because he's my favorite character of the core cast. I'm slowly beginning to lose interest in the show because of it. Has anyone heard any rumors about what may be happening with him in later episodes? I thought for a minute he might hook up with Lexie. But it looks like that's not going anywhere.

i noticed that too.. in the last few episodes george is ignored.. in the last episode he only had one line!!! ..and the worst of all is that he has no scenes with the rest of the crew.. it's like he's not their friend anymore.. mer and christina and izzie act like he doesn't even exist!!! they don't talk to him and they don't even talk about him!!
i miss seeing them all together having lunch and talking about everything and having fun!!!

I just realized... he's slept with/been a love interest of almost every girl on the show!
Don't even know if that's a good or bad thing.

Man! It just keeps getting worse. Lexi, who isn't even one of the original interns, is getting more character development than George. What the hell is going on?! It's getting to the point where I'm not looking forward to watching the show anymore. This past Thursday I only watched to see if George would finaly get a meaningful story line again. I just ended up being disappointed. This trend had better end soon. Grey's is about to lose an audience member.
