Katherine Heigl says she misses seeing T.R. Knight on the set of Grey's Anatomy.

"It's a little bizarre," she told Usmagazine.com Thursday at the Los Angeles premiere of her new romantic comedy The Ugly Truth. "I had to call him this morning and say, 'OK, so this is what happened yesterday! This is what scenes we shot, this is how I felt about it.'"

"He's who I went to everyday when I wanted to vent or to get advice," she added of Knight, who announced in June that he was leaving the ABC hit after years of playing George O'Malley.

Despite speculation about her future on the show, Heigl won't be leaving, Usmagazine.com reported last month. A source told Us, "Katie will still be on Grey's next season."

On May's shocking finale, Heigl's cancer-stricken character, Izzie Stevens, underwent a risky brain surgery and was unconscious during the show's final moments.

In February, Heigl's costar James Pickens Jr. let it slip to Us Weekly that both Knight and Heigl intended to leave the show. "Wherever Katherine goes," he told Us at the time, "I wish her nothing but the best."

    Heigl should go, sorry she is so overated and not very nice! I have stopped watching alot of shows that actually show gay scenes. My gosh, kids are watching, keep it private and off prime tv.

    O'Malley's character was the most likeable on the show and it's a shame they didn't expand his roles to encompass more of what his character was about. The character I can't stomach, have never been able to is Yang. She has to go. Much too full of herself for my liking.

    Oh my GOD, JB. Can you just go back to the stone age, please? Seriously, he's not hurting ANYONE. Besides...if I am not mistaken, George was NOT doing anything obscene. If you're easily offended by someone being gay, I'd just move to the woods somewhere if I were you. They're here, and your use of the phrase 'queer' just shows how ignorant you are.

    I don't watch this show, but I am still glad they fired the queer. There's no place for that crap on primetime television, or any t.v., for that matter.

    I don't really see her whining in this. Nor is she being a diva. She is just saying that she misses seeing one of her best friends everyday. Correct me if I'm wrong but missing a friend who you USED to see everyday but now don't, especially one who was a confidant is kinda normal. By no means do I think that she is the BEST actress ever but I don't really understand
