McDreamy He’s Not, But By George We Love Him

George O’Malley is a doer (something Meredith Grey knows well). He’s lovable, cute as all heck, and I’d pick him in an instant to be the brother I never had. But what do we know about TR Knight, the actor who plays the lovable George?

Check out this CNN Q&A with Seattle Grace’s most squashable Doctor. Find out what TR has to say about why the show works, George’s relationship with Meredith, and the infamous shower scene.

Here’s a little taste…

Q: Why do you think the show is so popular?

T.R. KNIGHT: You have a really — excluding myself — fascinating group of actors who are all very different from each other, exceedingly different. You’ve got really good writing and I really like the point of view of our creator, Shonda (Rhimes). I like her politics, I like what she stands for and I like what she’s trying to do with the show.

Q: Tell us about that scene where you fantasized about showering with your female colleagues.

KNIGHT: I love that. I think it was a great, great way to bring people into the show. But it also made sense because the last episode you left it, George was in bed with Izzie and Meredith. So he’s got a lot of frustrations with that, and so his desires have to come out even subconsciously somewhere.

Q: Was it fun to film?

KNIGHT: Oh, it was a blast! You know, everyone’s really covered up. No one’s completely naked. You get body makeup and so someone’s spreading body makeup on you. I think if you were an exhibitionist, you’d kind of be in hog heaven, but I’m not that person.
