Proving that onscreen tumultuous melodrama can beat off-camera scandal and unrest any day, Isaiah Washington was named Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series for Grey's Anatomy, his second win in a row and, this year, a much-needed Image boost for the beleaguered performer.
"The last time I was up here I felt deserving of something," said an emotional Washington, who came thisclose in January to losing his tenure at Seattle Grace after letting a gay slur fly in costar T.R. Knight's direction, moments after Grey's won Best Drama Series at the Golden Globes.
"This time, I feel extraordinarily privileged," he said. "I'm humbled and honored to be recognized by the NAACP." Then, after the usual thank you's, none of which singled out any part of the Grey's team, the wrap-up music cut Washington off before he was finished.
Grey's was also named Outstanding Drama Series, Chandra Wilson won for Supporting Actress in a Drama Series and series creator Shonda Rhimes was honored for writing, giving the hit ABC series a leading four wins for the night. [Source]
