Patrick Dempsey is headed back to network television in a major way. Fox has officially ordered the drama series Memory of a Killer for the 2025–2026 season, with Dempsey set to take on the complex lead role. The announcement came Monday ahead of the network’s upfront presentation in New York, marking a high-profile return to broadcast for the actor best known as McDreamy on Grey’s Anatomy. Although, it must be said, this does not sound very McDreamy at all.
