Dr. Addison Forbes may be getting cozy at the Oceanside Wellness Center but that doesn’t mean that she doesn’t miss Seattle Grace every now and then. Last season, on Grey’s Anatomy, Addison made the trip back to see Derek, Meredith, and the gang and found out that things had changed. She just about slapped her ex-husband when she realized that he and Meredith weren’t together anymore and was one of the first to figure out that Callie and Erica had something going on between them. Today, show creator Shonda Rhimes hinted to Entertainment Weekly that Addison may be visiting again in the middle of the upcoming season, but only if there’s a good story to tell. Fingers crossed!

"I don't know if it's going to work with the story, and we don't want her to come back for a visit if it doesn't feel important, something only Addison can do," Rhimes told Entertainment Weekly. "But the idea is on the table." Yes, so it’s true. Addison may be stopping by Seattle Grace but stopping by is all she’ll do. On Private Practice, the sexy doctor will be finding love of her own with Officer Kevin this season, who makes her forget all about her dramatic, on again off again relationship with Dr. Peter Wilder.

Kate Walsh couldn’t be happier that her character is getting a little lovin’. "We only knew her as the miserable part of a triangle [with Derek and Meredith]”, Walsh told USA Today this week. "It's interesting to see this character with someone who wants to be with her — in a good way. That's been fun to explore, what it's like to date and perhaps date successfully."

Grey’s Anatomy returns for its 5th season on Thursday, September 25th, at 9pm ET while Private Practice is back for its 2nd season, starting Wednesday, October 1st, at 9pm ET.
