'Grey's Anatomy' (ABC). Death is coming to Seattle Grace. Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes has confirmed that a beloved character will die in the May 17 season finale (via TV Guide).
"A lot of our writers were crying, which is a very rare thing," Rhimes said of the season finale. "There's some really shocking, horrible moments."
So which unlucky doctor is headed to that great hospital in the sky? Well, Patrick Dempsey and Ellen Pompeo, who play Grey's supercouple Derek and Meredith, both have contracts that expire after this current season. Rhimes has also been cagey about revealing future storyline details for Callie and Arizona (Sara Ramirez and Jessica Capshaw). So who do you think will be the Grey's sacrificial finale lamb? Vote now.
Judge Len Goodman seemed particularly upset to see the Knight go home. "If I could judge purely with my heart, you would be at the top of my leaderboard," he told Knight after she was eliminated. Her pro partner Tristan MacManus also had nothing but kind words for the Mowtown legend: "I'll probably miss Gladys as much as I miss Ireland when I'm here," he said. "And I really, really miss Ireland."
Looks like Smash is definitely not going to become the serious Broadway behind-the-scenes drama many once hoped it would be. The NBC musical series has hired Gossip Girl executive producer Josh Safran to fill the showrunner position that was vacated by Teresa Rebeck in March. Safran has been with Gossip Girl since it debuted in 2007, working his was from writer/consulting producer to co-exec producer before being promoted to EP last season. There's no word on who might replace him over at GG, which is expected to return for a sixth and final season.
Community is taking on Law & Order this week, and we've got our first look at the episode's special credit sequence, which features L&O's trademark black and white grainy crime images and the classic final shot of the cast walking together down the hallway. Check it out!
And finally, the Dubious Honor Award of the day goes to the CW's soapy new drama, The L.A. Complex, which became the lowest-rated in-season broadcast drama debut on record last night. The premiere of the Canadian import, which centers on a group of showbiz hopefuls living in Tinseltown, opened to a measly 646,000 viewers.
DVR Watch: The Top 6 singers take on Queen's songbook on American Idol (Fox, 8pm), Survivor: One World has a wet and wild immunity challenge (CBS, 8pm), the models don Hello Kitty Couture on America's Next Top Model: British Invasion (CW, 9pm), Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 has June fixing one of Chloe's messes (ABC, 9:30pm), Revenge has Emily uncovering the identity of her father's killer (ABC, 10pm), and Cartman falls for the new girl at school on South Park (Comedy Central, 10pm).
