New regulars for Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice

Even though focus groups reportedly did not like her Grey's Anatomy character much (mostly because she got in the way of Meredith and Derek?), TV Guide's Michael Ausiello reports that Chyler Leigh was promoted to series regular. This news comes less than a week after we've told you that the series was considering having her stay longer than the planned 13 episodes.

As for the Grey's spinoff Private Practice, KaDee Strickland has been cast as Oceanside Wellness Center's administrator. This is a series regular position. No more information has been given about the character. You may remember Strickland from FOX's fast-canceled The Wedding Bells or from movies such as Fever Pitch, The Grudge and The Stepford Wives.

I agree - and we all know what that feels like - pure agony!

I have commented about this on my blog too - and I am just plain upset about this man-robber coming on.

Good info about the spin-off too - thanks!
