Reuters is reporting that ABC has decided to try it’s hand on a spinoff of its uber-popular medical drama GREY’S ANATOMY. The spinoff will star Dr. Addison Montgomery-Sheperd (is it still Sheperd?), with a two hour pilot being set to shoot in May. Looks like those dreaming of an Alex/Addison relationship are in store for a serious letdown.
An ABC spokeswoman could not immediately be reached for comment. But here’s one from theTVaddict.com: Although we love Addison and are thrilled she’s getting her own show, we were somewhat hoping Dr. Burke would be the first regular to exit Seattle Grace.
