LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Melissa George will no longer be walking the halls of Seattle Grace as Dr. Sadie Harris on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy," but a rep for the actress told Access Hollywood that her departure is no cause for a code blue.

Despite previous headline-worthy exits on "Grey's" by other actors, Melissa's departure from the medical drama is anything but dramatic, according to her rep.

Her rep told Access the actress only committed to eight episodes and that she's come to the end of the run for her character's storyline.

Melissa told Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello, who first broke the news of her departure, that she'll miss working with her co-stars most.

"I love the show so much," she said. "I've made some beautiful friends. I love T.R. Knight . I love Patrick Dempsey , Justin Chambers ... I adore Ellen Pompeo . I think she's a strong, incredible woman. And Katherine Heigl is the most beautiful creature on Earth."

    Oh well! Next! I was happy to see Denny go. He is awesome and hot but it was a bit much having her having sex with a dead guy! This show is slipping! :(

    Thank GOD. She was not a good fit at all. I could care less about lesbian story lines. I just did not like her at all.

    That's a good thing! I didn't like where her character was going. I also don't like the lesbian story lines that Grey's writers are doing! Stick to what made the show successful! You might lose some loyal fans!
