Paging Dr. Burke...

Rumor has it Dr. Burke will be answering his pages next year when he returns for the Fall season of "ABC's Grey's Anatomy".


As you may recall, Isiah Washington was in hot water earlier this year when it leaked that he used a gay slur during an argument with fellow co-star, T.R. Knight. After much to do about nothing, the actor re-hashed all the drama when he chose to re-use the same slur while defending himself at the most recent Golden Globes. Washington was then said to be receiving "treatment" after this incident.

I still ask, what rehab exists for dirty mouths?

Anyhoo, The New York Post has reported that Washington will be back in the Fall from a "source close to production".

On last week's season finale, Dr. Burke left Christina (Sandra Oh) at the altar after her repeated acts of hesitations to getting married. He not only left the church, but packed up and left their love shack as well. It is this dramatic ending that posed the question in the first place as to whether or not Dr. Burke would be returning next season.
