"Private Practice star KaDee Strickland has dismissed rumours that the show is to be axed. The Grey&amp;#039;s Anatomy spinoff - which stars Kate Walsh as Dr Addison Montgomery - was recently moved to Tuesdays at 10pm. &amp;quot;Because of the way the show ends this season, it feels to me that a renewal would best serve us,&amp;quot; Strickland, who plays Charlotte King, told TVLine. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a hell of an ending.&amp;quot; The actress also denied that the shift in timeslot was a bad sign for the show&amp;#039;s future. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m not one to sit around and look for the worst case scenario,&amp;quot; she explained. &amp;quot;We should sort of anticipate good news.&amp;quot; Strickland similarly argued that the debut of Scandal - the new drama from Grey&amp;#039;s creator Shonda Rhimes - would not affect Private Practice. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s so funny to me, because we don&amp;#039;t ask that question about David Kelley, or JJ Abrams, or other great showrunners that have multiple things going on,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;So I don&amp;#039;t think we should ask that of Shonda.&amp;quot; The fifth season of Private Practice concludes on May 15 on ABC.  &amp;gt; Private Practice Shonda Rhimes: &amp;#039;Next episode is unmissable&amp;#039; &amp;gt; More TV news Watch a promo for the next Private Practice below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
