No more Pete .. can't say I'm that upset really, his character was getting a bit irritating and didn't really have anywhere to go. I assume they'll write him out as being found guilty of the mercy killing and sentenced to life.

At this stage, the only characters I find interesting are Amelia, Sheldon & Charlotte(and Cooper I guess). I'd be fine with the presumably shortened last season focusing on them, but no doubt it will be more Jake/Addison/Sam :yawn:
I hope they make other cuts to the cast, I could see Sam going as well after Addison, hopefully, rejects his proposal.
I'd be ok with that as well actually. Sam hasn't had any major storylines aside from Addison for a while so I certainly think he wouldn't be missed.
They could even have him go off to get back together with Naomi again I suppose.

Comes after Shonda apparently suggests that the show may carry on after Season 6 after all

I'm torn really - Addison is the whole point of the show I guess, since she moved out there in the first place, but then the stuff with Amelia and then Cooper & Charlotte has been so good, it kind of shows that it could go on without her.
I thought season 6 will just be a 13 ep one?
It will be - Walsh's contract is apparently only for 13 episodes. I guess like most things, it'll depend on the ratings.
But I'd certainly have no problem of Cooper and Charlotte moved to Seattle and Charlotte took over from Hunt.
I suppose it could work - the rumour is that there will be more deaths after the plane crash, so if they kill off Arizona, Cooper could take over from her.
I'm not sure I like idea of Cooper in Grey's Anatomy, he's annoying at the best of times, and infuriating at the worse, but I love the idea of Charlotte moving and I understand they come as a pair. The thing is Grey's is one of the few shows where I like all the characters, and even April, who is annoying, isn't that bad, and Cooper would change that as would Sam.
I do think that it's likely some characters will move over if PP ends after season 6 (again likely,) the most likely one will probably be Amelia she has the connection, and then I suppose they could use the Amelia connection to bring in other characters.
It's a shame about the Kate Walsh news, not because I care for PP, but it means the likelihood of her returning to GA is very low. Hope she at least does a guest appearance in the final season.
Seems a bit daft to continue a show without the central character and who the whole show is essentially built around. While there are still probably plenty of stories left with the supporting cast, it just doesn't fill me with a lot of enthusiasm for it after Walsh leaves.

It would have been wrong if they didn't mention it though, haven't watched the second episode yet but was wondering if they were going to acknowledge or not.
Not sure if things from episode 1 need to be spoilered or not as it's already aired, but will anyway.
Cooper's attitude towards Charlotte's pregnancy is more evident in Ep2, but I won't spoil it if you haven't seen it yet.
Audra McDonald back for the final episode

This season is one of those where they obviously know it's coming to an end so they're just doing "different" styles of episode because they're obviously not concerned about ratings. Thing is, it's actually made the last few really very good
This week's one, with the dance sequences, was great. The dancing was weird to start with, but it kind of worked in the end!
Am enjoying the new style, its a bit confusing with the time leaps but I like how each person gets their own episodes. Sheldon's one was very nicely done. And glad they resolved the missing child one.
So not sure we have much more to resolve? Sheldon needs an all clear and Amelia needs to be dating that doctor. Maybe just violet to have a "happy ending" but all i can think there is she smiles at some man, ie "hope for the future" rather than she is actually dating someone.
Probably not. I think with Audra McDonald coming back for the last episode, it's almost certain that Addison is going to get married at least.
But then they've known all along that this season was only 13 episodes, so in one way, we'll get something approaching a resolution, or 'wrap up', of sorts, but it wasn't until fairly late in the day that they actually decided to make this the final season so I guess there's a tiny chance we might possibly get some kind of cliffhanger if they felt they had a chance of carrying on.
I loved the Charlotte and Coop episodes, Charlotte is my favourite character anyway. I do hope the babies and Charlotte are ok!
I really felt sorry for Violet in the last episode. I hope she finds some happiness before the end of the season. I'm glad Amelia has found some happiness too, she's a wonderful character and I'm so pleased they've made things go well for her since last season. Her giving birth to her baby was one of the most heartbreaking things I've watched, so I really like that they've done a nicer storyline for her.
While I actually quite like Hunt as the Chief, you could feasibly have him go back to Trauma and have Charlotte move in as the new Chief with Cooper in Paediatrics to replace Arizona.
Just seen the preview write-ups for the final two episodes. No major spoilers, more "TV Guide"-type previews.
Episode 12:
Episode 13:
Loved the final scene, even though you just knew what the title was .. perfect ending for me. Sad it's finished.
I really can't see why they can't incorporate at least some of the cast into Greys. I think there could be plenty of potential for some Amelia/Derek stories (providing Patrick Dempsey stays) at the very least.
best bit - Charlotte and Cooper being a happy family
worst bit - Sam and Niaomi, far too out of the blue
And I agree that some of them could go to Greys. In fact I can imagine
giving Sam and Naomi a happy ending was nice, okay maybe a bit quick but at least it was nice and neat and happier than him ending up with that other woman. Shame we didn't see their older child (and grandkid) at all.
