Fans of "Grey's Anatomy" know the show isn't quite the same without Ellen Pompeo's Meredith Grey, but the long-running medical drama made sure her farewell served as the perfect goodbye. But was it really the end for Meredith?
As previously reported by Variety, viewers saw a lot less of Dr. Grey in season 19 due to the actor's role in a forthcoming Hulu show, "The Orphan," and she officially departed the show in its Feb. 23 episode. Her character returned for the season 19 finale, though - and apparently will be back again.
"It's a little bit of trickery, because I'm not completely gone," Pompeo said during her Variety Actors on Actors sit-down with former castmate Katherine Heigl, published June 6. "Actually, the storyline is very cool. There's a lot of real research that's changing very rapidly about Alzheimer's disease and about what they believe is the cause of Alzheimer's disease.
