Like us, you probably thought that Isaiah Washington screaming the word "faggot" at everyone who works on Grey's Anatomy like some sort of hellish warcry had probably put the kibosh on his television career, but that couldn't be wronger.

After being unceremoniously dumped by Grey's Anatomy and ABC last month, Isaiah Washington looked to be done for - but NBC has handed Isaiah a second chance. Not only will Isaiah Washington be starring in five episodes of new NBC action series The Bionic Woman, but the network is developing another action series that Isaiah Washington apparently thought up himself. It's a big risk for NBC to take - they're banking on the public siding with man who ultimately got the sack from his last job for bellowing a gay slur in the middle of a fight - which is possibly why NBC has rejected Isaiah Washington's idea for a gameshow called Isaiah Washington Says Who's The Faggot? You Are, You're The Faggot, That's What Isaiah Washington Says.
