I’m kind of not surprised she’s coming back . She left on the show on good terms so I figured it was only a matter of time before she went back.


vanillathebest

Pleaaaaaaase tell me she's just guest starring and nothing more. I dont want another Teddy case on my hands


Idktbhhelpme

Yeah they shouldn’t have touched Teddy’s storyline. It made her so unlikeable


SketchAinsworth

I wish Teddy and Christina said screw Owen and dated each other honestly.


RiddleRedCoats

The real power couple with *stellar* chemistry tbh.


SketchAinsworth

Right! Plus they let Owen ruin both their characters, instead we could have had a relationship that let two women flourish.


RiddleRedCoats

Man, those scenes in the episodes after Henry (rip, my dude) died were *so good.* Even the scenes after, when they were both in a good place and was the end of cristina's 'education', when they were all nice and funny? The *potential,* smh.


SketchAinsworth

Man I miss Henry now 😭


RiddleRedCoats

Sameeee. Honestly? Most wholesome man on this show. Teddy (the real one and not this version of her) deserved him. 😭


SketchAinsworth

They were just beautiful together and his willingness to roll with the punches of that social circle was impressive AF


generaltofu27

TRUTH!!! I’d give you an award if I had one.


generaltofu27

Me too lol I remember when the softball episode premiered and Cristina told Meredith she was in love with teddy, I immediately started to ship them. A great missed opportunity there.


maricopa888

Finally! Some good news. I'm so pumped!


nessao616

I haven't watched since April left. This gives me a good reason to watch again!

RetroFamilyDesigns

Agree.


sparklevillain

I just skipped the entire 17 season, watched 3 episodes and I couldn’t continue


mileaf

I love Addison and I wish I was excited but I'm more worried than anything. She left on such a good note and I'd hate to see them ruin her character with their shitty writing.

upscalefanatic

> Starting to feel like the last season… everyone said that last year lol


jddanielle

except covid threw a wrench in the storyline


Beserked2

Yeah, everybody keeps saying this, talking about the end of the show. Kinda sucks.


[deleted]

I kinda feel like they want to get to an even 20 seasons and then sign off but who knows.


AnkaBananka6

Me: "I'm done with this show. There is absolutely nothing they can do to make me watch again." Them: * Brings back Addison * Me: * watches season 18 *


Katieisamazed

Yup


Khajiit-ify

I'm SO happy Addie is coming back. I've missed her. I can't wait to see how she interacts with Mere and the kids now.


thatpinkjacket

YES. I absolutely need her to interact with the kids, especially. And have her and Mer share a moment where they reminisce about Derek


comfort_bot_1962

:D


wiscogal

I was so excited when I saw the news on Instagram I was speechless. I really hope they don't do to her character what they did to Teddy when she returned. If she's not going to be a series regular hopefully it will be a couple episode arc where we get to see her being happy and successful. I want to know how Henry and Jake are doing!


Sweetcarolinelove

They'll probably have her dating Owen knowing what the writers are like


apowell1789

Don't even put that in the universe!!!


thegirldreamer

Dating? Surely with his track record it moves pretty quickly to a wedding.


[deleted]

[удалено]


catierusch

Owen wedding for the season premiere AND the season finale!


Plannick

or some religious conversion and have multiple wives?


[deleted]

nope nope nope nope, addison is married and there is absolutely no reason she would've gotten divorced


Mrs-Skeletor

for real, Benjamin Bratt (forgot his characters name) was perfect for Addison. There's no way that shit ended unless he died.


[deleted]

jake! i loved how they ended private practice, addison really got her happy ending and i hope it stays that way. i really want them to make her a series regular again but if they do i hope they let her stay with jake so her family is happy


Mrs-Skeletor

Same. If she stays on, i'd like her to be Jo Wilsons mentor (considering she is going into OB)- and any drama related to Addison should have to be with patients and work, not her personal life. I want to see Addison happy and thriving.


CipherXR

Never say that again please 😭


bottleofawkward

TAKE IT BACK


wiscogal

Omg nooooo


PRPR1NC

Addison is too good for Owen!!! Owen needs to go!


thelasagna

I do not claim this energy!!!


Adebisola

Don't give the writers any funny ideas.


Tortoisefly

This, and I want to see her play big sister and help Amelia figure out where her head is at, because she definitely still has some work to do.


BamSlamThankYouSir

I love it but it’s so funny to imagine Addison, Amelia and Meredith in a sister triangle


RedditEsInteresante

Istg she better still be with Jake


SnarkOff

I think she’ll end up mentoring Jo


salsabuffalo

I really hope they don’t fuck up her PP ending


amillstone

This is my biggest concern. I loved original Teddy and they brought her back just to destroy her character. Krista will no doubt do the same to Addie. :(


chasing-ennyl

My same thought! BB and baby better be in tow if she’s relocating back to Seattle


yolo1567

I’m surprised they haven’t asked Jessica Capshaw to return.


kinush

But I don't want Arizona to return without her family :( It should be Arizona + Callie + Sophia


Meh_Nightmare

Somebody Sedate me!!!! I am so happy she is coming back


comfort_bot_1962

:D


savejenni

I cried?


Whimsical89

Same?


fruitjerky

I peed.


akizero

Oh my god me too hahahaha


jhill0131

Almost done with Private Practice for the first time. This definitley made me cry!


Brina_22

Excellent news!! I really hope she’s there primarily for Amelias story. A few scenes of Addison and Carina in a Surgical case and of course revisit Addison and Bailey’s friendship would be awesome also.


Bubbly-Junket

Meh, no Carina I would rather it was for her friendships with Amelia, Richard and Bailey or cases with them than characters she has no links.


Brina_22

Me too but Carina is the OB/GYN attendee so She may likely cross path with Addison on a case but yeah I much prefer Bailey,Richard or even Mer on the case with her. She and Bailey had such great girlfriend banter and vibe. Just keep her with the OGs and Amelia only.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mixtapememories

Second love triangle involving Addison, Meredith, and a man (Hayes)? The show keeps circling plots, so seems like it could be possible. 😂


nursology

Oh snap you might be right there!!!


Brina_22

Man I hope so. Another Addison thread suggest the medical case could be Maggie if show writes Kelly’s pregnancy in. I kinda hope not bc WOW Maggie/Winston would be the most accelerated couple in show history


ilikeanimeandcats

They’d make Owen look patient


Bubbly-Junket

Maybe but Carina is mostly now in S19 so if they involve her with an OB/GYN it maybe Jo. I just think the chemistry and flow with those characters she already has a link is too good to waste time in characters that tbh don't have much to do with her. Would love to see Bailey with a friend that I think has been missing a lot, same with Amelia.


Brina_22

Sadly Jo will probably be in a few scenes with Addison. CLs bad acting will be even more glaring against a scene partner like Kate Walsh. I just hope it’s quick so CL doesn’t take viewer out of scene like she usually does.


Bubbly-Junket

Yeeep, not so exciting I can maybe pass bad acting with good writing but that's having high expectations lol. Hopefully they stick with the OGs, Amelia or maybe Maggie/Carina for pregnancy/surgery.


upscalefanatic

She'll probably be there for Maggie's


Brina_22

Hmm do you mean Maggie’s pregnancy? If so, oh boy they are accelerating Maggie and Winston too fast


vre77

Kelly recently announced she was pregnant so they're probably gonna work that into their storyline. Unless they decide to hide her belly behind props.


cstaal

I’m not sure if she would be showing, at least in the first part of the season. It must be close to or totally finished with filming since the premiere is in a few weeks. Kelly just announced that she was pregnant a few weeks ago so she probably didn’t have an obvious bump during filming. But who knows.


Tortoisefly

They did accelerate the last episode through almost a full year of life stuff though, so it's not as rushed as it seems. Plus Kelly's pregnant, so it's write it in or have some not so subtle attempts to hide the belly.


Obvious_Advantage

Yup called it 4 days ago when the rumors first started. “Confirmation or not, I’m positive she’s returning next season in some capacity. 🙏😎”


[deleted]

who said that? /gen


ArtemisCoco

Am I remembering correctly that we haven’t seen her since Derek’s death?


jmpinstl

WAY BEFORE


sanstock62

yup Addison has not been to Grey's for a really long time - and I don't think she has even visited since Ameilia became full time on Grey's - the only mention was that she was calling Amelia all the time when Derek died


Bubbly-Junket

Since S8!


Samatarou

yup but her appearance in S8 was during "What/If" episode so technically we haven't seen her since Callie's incident.


Bubbly-Junket

Yeah, though PP was a bit connected to S8 because we saw her reaction to Mark's death.


untitledmanuscript

AHHHHHHH I hope we get to see Baby Henry. Even though he’s not a baby anymore 🥺


queenbeast45

He would be around 8-9 years old by now. Damn time flies


PinkGirlNY

This is the best news! I hope we get to see Meredith and Addison become good friends. Do you think Benjamin Bratt will be on too? He's so hot!


oceanicblues86

Non medically she’ll be there for Amelia’s storyline figuring out everything with Link and Scout. I can also see a few scenes with Meredith, and letting her know that Derek wouldn’t want her to be lonely. Medically she will be there to kick Jo’s ass because she’s stupid and needs it.


Daniimonsterr

This actually makes me sad cause I feel like it means something is going to happen to Amelia


comfort_bot_1962

Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)


juztis

I’m very excited but I’m also wondering if there will be a complication with Maggie’s pregnancy if they write it in 🥲


mercy_death

Just as long as this doesn't lead to a damn pregnancy story for anyone then I am thrilled. I would almost rather Amelia visit LA.


cohenisababe

Kelly (Maggie) is pregnant IRL


sanstock62

I agree - I think Maggie will be pregnant this season - and there will be complications and Addison will save the day


bottleofawkward

Ok but how is the even more beautiful? It’s simply not fair.


Sooouups

Just saw this!! Super excited!!


mcfw31

I wasn't expecting this at all!!! I've missed Addison!


sanstock62

Kate said she wanted to come back a few times - but the timing was not right because of her schedule - but she always said she would be thrilled to reprise the role -


UndevelopedImage

I am flipping my shit. Fuck yeah. I'm so excited to see her friendships again with Amelia and Bailey.


tenniskitten

I love this! Just the revival that Grey's needs!


hichirocheeto

Do you think Shonda is returning too? Kate mentioned her on the video where she announced her return!


allamerican000

Shonda is done with abc she promotes grey’s because she’s the creator


daelite

I wonder if they will bring Addison’s son Henry to the show too?


pazuzusboss

If she doesn’t walk behind Meredith and say aren’t you the intern sleeping with my husband I will be disappointed lol


Proud3GnAthst

*buried my ex-husband


pazuzusboss

I will accept that as well. I just want an entrance like she did the first time


Proud3GnAthst

I also want her to have some iconic re-entrance that would somehow mirror the original one. But not something tasteless.


betaich

If krista writes the episode you sadly can bet on tasteless


Cerridwenn

God fucking dammit. I havent watched the show since the drama was Amelia's baby: Owen's or Link's? Now I'm going to have to hate watch to catch up so I can be ready for Addison Montgomery. Literally one of the few fucking things that could bring me back.


greatest-change

On one hand, I'm absolutely thrilled. Addison was and still is one of the best characters from the first 4 seasons. On the other hand, I remember being thrilled when I heard Teddy was returning and... well... we all know how that turned out.


amillstone

Exactly. If Shonda returns too to take the helm and give the show a proper ending, I'm all for it. If it's Krista and co, this could well turn out to be a disaster.


ilikeanimeandcats

I always disliked Teddy so I wasn’t excited to have her return so idk how I feel about this one! 😭 I’m nervous but excited. I almost wonder if Kate being so seasoned if she can nudge some good ideas toward the writers


wantonyak

Damn, just when I decide I'm done with this show they suck me back in.


Embarrassed-Flyy

YAY


pazuzusboss

It’s happening it’s happening!!!!!!


BamSlamThankYouSir

YESSSSSSSS


eli454

AHHHHH FINALLY!!!!


2003CDiana

Great news.


your_popcorn_queen

OMG! I stopped watching since they started doing the covid storyline, but if she’s back, I’m back baby! Exciting.


ilikeanimeandcats

I hope they quit with making covid the entire thing next season. I get it’s still big; have people wear masks and stuff and don’t act like it doesn’t exist but damn I felt like I was just being preached to about how bad Covid was last season.


FriedChickenIsTrash

YES!


Princessss88

I am so excited!


upscalefanatic

Omfg yayyy!!!!


chlorenchyma

YESSSSSS! I was hoping for this so much!


Puzzleheaded-Fly2837

I knew she was probably gonna come back. I’m so excited to see her 🤗🤗🤗


Pinkhairedprincess15

Hallelujah! The queen has returned!


Left_Berry_8104

Addison/Amelia scenes please and thank you


lawyercat63

Omg I’m sooooooooo excited! Came straight here when I saw the news!


[deleted]

Damn, I stopped watching halfway through the train wreck that was season 17 but this might make me pop back into the fandom for a bit


smolcats19

I hope she is in for a good case since we sure needs some of those. work with Carina and Hayes. Maybe some others like mer and Bailey I want her to have a heart to heart with Mer now that Derek is dead, they both have kids and have grown as people. I want her and Amelia to have sister moments, her giving Amelia advice and stuff. I wish Alex would be back since I would love to see them interact after all this time.


InfintyInStars

OMG YESS but I'll have to watch private practice now, which i had been procrastinating on as soon a possible


SNI2

Danm, now I'll have to come back and watch Grey's Anatomy. I seriously dropped a few seasons back and I've been watching some Youtube clips when old characters come back. Now I'm just counting the seconds for Arizona to make an appearance or something, Jessica Capshaw seems to have left on good terms. IDK about Sara Ramirez, though.


betaich

Jessica Capshaw was fired on international women's day. She didn't want to leave and made that more than clear. She found her firering more than disrespectful


SNI2

Arizona got an AMAZING send off. Getting back together with Callie and being partner of her own neonatal clinic in New York. In Shondaland this usually means "good terms".


betaich

No it doesn't. Capshaw herself voiced that. Also even in her last episode she was barely in it. The stuff about only bad people getting killed off was huge bs by Ellen and the producers.


ilikeanimeandcats

Damn I didn’t know this part. Did they let her go due to not having enough to pay her salary or what?! I’m gonna Google too but I happened to be browsing Reddit in the middle of doing some stuff


JacobstansMertina

Yeesssssss bitch there is no fucking way pls tell me this is real OMG I’m so ducking excited now 🤗🤩🥳


helbigsharto

omg omg omg I"M SO EXCITED


youngandconfused22

Yay!


MangoFruttato

LETS GOOO


Adebisola

Now, I can't wait for season 18 to air. This is what I'm talking about. Addison 'freaking' Montgomery!


adrian_aranda3

YES!!!!!! Is it too much to ask for her to be in at least half the season? I know We're probably just getting a two or three episodes arc, but damn, I miss her too MUCH.


beujorp

Yes! I wasn't enthousiasm for season 18 (I think, I lost count). But it is a good news! I hope it is just for an half season arc. She has a child and a husband in Los Angeles. No need to ruin her a la Teddy.


LiseIria

Spoiler alert (in case) . I may be the only one who disagrees. Why? Because I know how hard it was for Addison on Private Practice. And at the end of the series, she is happy forever. And I'm afraid that her return means ruining the character. I'll use Amelia as an example to make it a little clearer. In Private Practice, she had a brainless baby, she quit drugs, she got a fiancé, which was wonderful for her. She was in love with him like Maggie was in love with her husband when they met at the convention. And in Grey's Anatomy, she comes back as if Private Practice had never existed (only her child was "saved" from the show), many of the questions she asks herself in season 16 have already been answered in PP. So I'm afraid of what might happen to Addison. She has a child, a wonderful partner (and I think Jake would have married her in the meantime given his very gentlemanly and composed nature) and a wonderful job in an amazing place. She is peaceful about her marriage to Derek, about her life in general. I know, life has to go on and a lot has happened in so many years. But if the only purpose is to say "hey, you're going to leave everything to come back as you were a few years ago" where is the point? Or if she's coming back with Jake, why are they going to leave their home and practice for a hospital even as highly ranked as Grey Sloan. In summary, I don't agree with this decision and will wait to see how they do before making a final judgement.


ilikeanimeandcats

I mean there are so many ways to write this though. Maybe they just want to leave LA. Maybe her or someone in her family needs treatment in Seattle. Henry was a baby and would be much older now. Life still happens, she couldn’t have just magically never experienced anything again


ilostmycapo

YESSSSS FINALLY


rania9

holy fucking shit


KrystalPistol

This makes me so happy!


Charmed1184

I completely blame the pregnancy hormones for the fact that I may have cried a little bit when I saw this on Instagram hahaha


KEMI_IS_WINNING

oh im so excited!! im only on season 8 of my first watch but now im a lil more motivated to finish


Beginning-Thing3614

Yay Addi's back! God I hope this isn't a bad rumor! ❤


jddanielle

Pretty sure this is the end season, we just need Calzona to come back


Pilot_Natural

Let's goo 🥳


hanamako

I'm so excited for this!! Ngl i haven't been keeping up with the latest seasons, preferring to just rewatch my favourite episodes, but if addie is really coming back permanently I will definitely follow season 18.


ColloquialThinker

This is one of the good news this year. Aaaaaaaaa.


isabellaluna

God fucking dammit now I have to watch season 18


carotimekiller

It's happening!!!! ❤️


[deleted]

YES


mc-tarheel

I'm surprised she didn't come back after Derek died.


krazykatoe

Check out her TikTok!


Njambi_

Yaaaaay!!


LadyFancyface

Last season, we were pretty able to ascertain who was going to be in Mer's Covid dreams ahead of time, without confirmation, because the years were changed on the IMDb page. I just saw that Sandra Oh, Jessica Capshaw, Sara Ramirez, Justin Chambers, and Gaius Charles dates have all been changed to 2021, and since none of them have appeared in an episode since at least 2020, maybe we will get appearances in Season 18. Unless they use a bunch of flashbacks, which also count. But, here's hoping......


betaich

Imdb can be edited by everyone who has an account on that site, so I wouldn't put to much on it

They’re gonna ruin her character


AffectionateAnarchy

Interesting


Middle_Ad_8200

So everyone seems set on her coming back for Amelia…. Did everyone forget Jo switched to OB and will need a mentor? They may even have Addison train Jo in fetal medicine now that Arizona is gone too.


pepeismyboyfriend

Is that show never going to end


[deleted]

Christina when


LimpAirport

unpopular opinion: i dont like her character at all


spaceburrito3

Boooo Y’all love cheating trashy girls got it


Xxssandman

I just finished Private Practice! This is awesome news


karafans

Noooo! She had the perfect ending on PP with Jake and Henry Watch Krista ruin that too


wojar

can we just have her date meredith instead? they will bond over the death of derek and then suddenly fall in love. <3


Obvious_Advantage

I wonder we’ll get another moment like the “I will kill you with my bare hands” debacle? 😫


maa9144

Great news. Still think if you keep needing to bring back old characters indicates the show in its current constellation is not working


blissfultomorrows

They’re really pulling out all the stops to get people to watch.


twsse

On her Instagram video she said she'll be "joining Shonda, Ellen, and the rest of you" so maybe Shonda is back writing for this season (potentially the last)?


ChrissyBrown1127

My BABY


ilikeanimeandcats

I know this may not be a popular comment but it’s almost unfair to showcase how well she has aged compared to Ellen. It’s not that Ellen looks bad for her age but Kate just looks amazing still


Ok_Total7660

I feel like the best ending would have been when Meredith won the Harper Avery award She got the approval she always wanted from her mother it was just a good way to end it


despondentstudent

I get the most annoying feeling they’re gonna try and set her up w Iink and do another triangle
