Grey’s Anatomy will say goodbye to two of its longest-serving stars, as Kim Raver and Kevin McKidd are set to leave the hit medical drama in its upcoming season 22 finale. Raver and McKidd – who play fan favourites Dr Teddy Altman and Dr Owen Hunt – will bow out when the final episode airs on Wednesday 7 May on ABC in the US. The pair have been central to the show for nearly two decades, with McKidd joining in season 5 in 2008 and Raver arriving in season 6 before becoming a series regular in 2010. Their characters’ on-off relationship – which saw them meet as Army majors in Iraq before eventually marrying in season 18 – has been one of the drama’s most enduring storylines. Despite a turbulent recent chapter, which saw Teddy and Owen divorce after a failed attempt at an open marriage, there are hints the duo could still get a happy ending. Series creator Shonda Rhimes teased as much, saying it was “both bittersweet and joyful to give this couple …

Why Patrick Dempsey Returned to TV in ‘Memory of a Killer’ After ‘Grey’s’

Published by Daniella Wilson

[This interview contains spoilers from the March 16 episode of Memory of a Killer.] Patrick Dempsey has never played a character quite like with his starring role on Fox’s Memory of a Killer. More than a decade after leaving Grey’s Anatomy, the ABC medical drama where he played legendary neurosurgeon Dr. Derek “McDreamy” Shepherd for 11 seasons, Dempsey has stepped into the role of a cold-blooded contract killer who struggles to keep his double life a secret after experiencing symptoms of early onset Alzheimer’s — the same disease, ironically, that Derek spent years researching on Grey’s. “What was really appealing was the assassin side, and certainly the Alzheimer’s and the dementia side,” Dempsey tells The Hollywood Reporter of his long-awaited return to network TV. “I don’t get this type of character offered to me very often, and it came to me very quickly. I had to read it and then had to make a decision within 24 hours, because they were about to make the announcement [about the series order at the Fox Upfronts last …
