Wow. That sounds fantastic. I still don't like the idea of a GA spinoff, but I hope I end up liking it.

Does anyone think that if this takes off it could hurt Grey's ratings a bit?

Possibly because it so bland I couldn't even musty the energy to hate the show, that would more be effort then anyone put into writing that drabfest.

I don't know how they did it but they turned this idea into something I really didn't want into one of my most anticipated pilots ever (then again, I don't usually have high anticipation for pilots).

I can't believe they got Lisa Kudrow. If this succeeds, it could be a very successful career move on her part. It's not gonna sink in for a while.

If this bombs, expect the Friends curse to start gaining some namesake...

I wonder how big a role she will have.

And as for the Friends curse....

Matt Le Blanc bombed with Joey
Mathew Perry is bombing with Studio 60
Lisa Kudrow already bombed with The Comeback
Courtney Cox is bombing with Dirt
Jennifer Aniston has only has 1 movie to cross $100m since Friends ended and her other 3 haven't even crossed $50m
David Schwimmer is almost nowhere to be found in front of the camera (I know he's done some behind the camera stuff)

Um, if Lisa Kudrow and Kate Walsh are on the same show this could really be phenomenal.

They really need another strong male presence.Taye Diggs and Tim Daly just aren't big enough to balance out these two really big-name women.

I'm really interested as to what they're going to call it.

And I'm REALLY REALLY hoping that there is a genuine story, script, and objective in this project.

I'm still a bit fuzzy on how they're going to phase this from Grey's. the two hour Addison episode of Grey's... is that going to be the Grey's Anatomy season finale or something besides that?

It's something besides that. After the two-hour Addison spinoff episode there are still going to be two episodes left in the season.

The two hour finale will leave the season in a giant cliffhanger, most likely as to if Addison is going to leave or stay. I imagine something like someone will ask her to marry them or something like that.

Anywho, the point is to buy time. If they like the pilot of the spinoff, they will start Grey's next season answering the cliffhanger one way, if they don't like the plot, then Addison will stay and they will answer the cliffhanger in that regard.

"I dfuc kher in the fuck butt fuck hole as fuck"

The rumored title is "Who's Doing Who?"

Seriously though the cast is impressive in terms of they really seem determined to make it work. I'd say the biggest warning sign is not the concept or cast but the fact that they are setting it in LA. Seattle gave GA a part of it's flavor, LA is pretty overexposed.

Michael Ausiello says Lisa Kudrow is not on the Addison spin-off.

Too bad. But, the show is still looking good so far.

That is too bad, because Lisa Kudrow is one of my favorite people ever

Either way, I feel a lot better about Addison's spin-off than I did before with this impressive cast they've rounded up. It helps that Kate Walsh is completely wonderful and will probably have no trouble carrying a show.
