IsDempseyLeavingGrey’s?
IT’S DECISION TIME for Patrick
Dempsey. His Grey’s Anatomy contract
is up at the end of this season, and the
actor has said he was ready to check
out of Seattle Grace/Mercy West. But
now he tells us he may sign on for one
more rotation. —Franck Ragaine

will I do a full season, a half
season or come back at all?
There are a lot of things I’d like
to do: [car] racing, films…so if
I’m able to balance all those
things and continue on with the show,
why not? There are so many other
things than just the money. But it’s a
nice position to be in.

that Derek continues to stand by her.
But it’s good that they made the com-
mitment to stay together.
“It’s nice to
have a job,”
Dempsey
says
A 1954 TV GUIDE editorial suggested that
the people responsible for loud commer-
cials“should be sentenced to five years at
hard labor in a boiler factory.”The Com-
mercial Advertisement Loudness Mitiga-
tion Act signed into law by President
Obama won’t dole out that kind of pun-
ishment—but it is the first regulation to
address one of the longest-running issues
viewers have.“We have received thou-
sands of complaints,”says FCC chairman
Julius Genachowski.“It’s a real concern
among consumers.”TV stations,satellite
companies and cable operators will have
a year to comply with the new regulation
that requires commercials and promos to
be at the same volume level as program
content; if they don’t,they can be subject
to fines.While the FCC will do some spot
checks,they will depend on viewers to
make themselves heard above the noise
and report possible violations.—SB

“Their talent
speaks for itself,”
Horowitz and
Kitsis (inset) say
of the cast
WATCH
MYSHOW!
ADVERTISEMENT
Once Upon a
Time Having
served as exec-
utive producers
on Lost,Adam
Horowitz and
Edward Kitsis
are experts in alternate worlds,shocking
twists and the battle between good and evil.
As the creators of ABC’s fairy tale–themed
new hit,they found another way to spin
those kinds of yarns. It’s working: When
seven days of DVR usage are included,Once
averages 13.8 million viewers and a 4.8 rating
among adults 18–49.In case you haven’t
checked it out yet (the show returns Janu-
ary 8), Horowitz and Kitsis answered our
show runner questionnaire in the hopes that
you’ll soon book a trip to Storybrooke.—MS
I could sit at home and read a fairy tale.
Why should I watch your show instead?
Because what we’re attempting to do is not
retell fairy tales but tell you the parts of them
you never knew—to reinvent them through
our own sensibilities and then mash them all
up in ways we’ve never seen before and we
hope the audience hasn’t imagined.
What happens if we don’t watch your
show? Then the show ends.And we are sad.
Give us an algorithm for your show.We
don’t understand math. That’s why
we became writers.
What’s the best thing anyone
has said or written about
your show? That it
made them happy
to watch,that
it transported them somewhere enjoyable
for an hour.
Were they right? We take them at their
word.Who are we to judge?
ABC promotes your Lostcredits.Which
past credit should they avoid touting at
all costs? Hot Tonight.It was a public access
sketch-comedy show we did in Madison,
Wisconsin.We thought we were funny.We
write drama now.
How are you using your power of TV for
good? We are trying to write about the
power of hope in a time of uncertainty.Also,
we use it to fight crime.
What’s an alternate title for your show?
A Fistful of Fairy Dust.
Show runner battles are all the rage these
days.Pick a rival show,any show,to start
a fight with.60 Minutes.We’ve watched
your show.We’ve timed it.Without commer-
cials,you’re only 43 minutes.
Let’s scare the network.Tell us an idea
that didn’t make it out of the writers’
room.We have a show with fairies,dwarves,
talking crickets and dragons—we’re not sure
they’re frightened of anything anymore.
Let’s say you could do a crossover episode
with any TV show in history.Which show,
and what would the episode be about?
The Charmings.And it would be Snow and
Charming confronting Snow and Charming.
Fighting to the death over
who is really…Snow and
Charming.
Of your cast members,
who would fare best on
CelebrityApprentice?
Rumpelstiltskin.He drives
a hard bargain.
Now that you’re a hit,what
sort of Hollywood-ish thing will you
demand? We don’t think of ourselves as a
hit; we’re just glad to have the opportunity
to tell more stories. That said, we’ve asked
ABC for a dwarf entourage.
What would a OnceUponaTime ride at
Disneyland look like? You’d hop in Emma’s
Yellow Bug,race through Storybrooke and
escape the curse right before being depos-
ited in Fairy Tale Land.That’s where,of
course,your picture would be taken in the
Magic Mirror.And you’d have to walk through
Mr.Gold’s Pawn Shop in order to buy souve-
nirs.Or barter your children for the location
of your parking spot,which you’ve long since
forgotten because of the dizzying ride.
