LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dr. Meredith Grey will be cutting back her workload next season on “Grey’s Anatomy.” Series star Ellen Pompeo is set to appear in eight episodes of the hospital drama, about a third of the usual per-season number. Pompeo is reducing her commitment as she prepares to star in an untitled limited series for Hulu. The drama is based on the real-life story of a tangled adoption case involving U.S. parents and a Ukrainian-born child. Pompeo is one of the few original remaining “Grey’s Anatomy” cast members, which include Chandra Wilson and James Pickens Jr. The ABC series returns Oct. 6 for its 19th season.
