Oh, to navigate these troubling Grey’s Anatomy waters. Very little time has handed since we first realized of April and Arizona’s surprise departures at the top of season 14. In the case of Jessica Capshaw, we’re losing a crucial LGBTQ+ character who is a vital beacon of illustration on the present. Suffice it to say, it is a nice loss for everybody, however particularly a nice loss for the LGBTQ+ group. Plus, like, Arizona is a ray of sunshine. The subsequent season will virtually definitely be a little dimmer with out her.
Perhaps probably the most attention-grabbing factor about these exits is that they do not precisely appear . . . needed. I’m not referring to the indignant fan backlash (though that is very actual), however somewhat the truth that the present’s inventive forces are insisting the decision is creative, and neither Capshaw nor Sarah Drew appear to be completely on board with the transfer. (I’m projecting a little bit right here, bear with me.) I imply, Capshaw’s touching statement is heartbreaking sufficient in itself, however there’s one other little Twitter tidbit that appears to recommend she’s not able to go.
I feel there may be a lot extra to create right here 😉 https://t.co/nGixXr5NKB

Basically, a Jessica Capshaw Twitter account shared a very old clip from season eight. We meet Arizona’s childhood good friend Nick, who’s dying of most cancers. Arizona is devastated, as a result of she’s a physician, and Nick is available in when his most cancers may be very superior and in its later phases. If he had come to her sooner, she may have saved him. The fan behind the Twitter account expressed a bit of disappointment and a want that this relationship (which is barely seen in two episodes) may have been explored simply a little bit extra.
In a response tweet, Capshaw stated that “there is so much more to create here” with a winking face. This could be 5 days after the information of her departure broke. Five days after the showrunner principally stated, “We’ve run out of stories for Arizona’s character.” This is Capshaw’s (very elegant) manner of saying, “I respectfully disagree.” And, nicely, it does not get any extra actual than that. It’s moments like that actually make you marvel what is going on on behind the scenes. But alas, whether or not we prefer it or not, our days with Arizona are numbered. It’s time to arrange ourselves for an emotional goodbye.
