Q: Is the “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” coming back or was it canceled after one season? Didn’t one of the cast members get arrested? -- E.M.

A: The entire “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” cast just returned for a second season on Bravo, and much of the drama will certainly be focused on cast member Jen Shah’s arrest. Shah and her assistant Stuart Smith were booked on federal charges this past March for allegedly heading up a telemarketing scheme aimed at defrauding the elderly. Shah’s trial is scheduled for March 2022.

Joining all the returning housewives is Jennie Nguyen, a stay-athome mom who recently sold her medical spa business. Nguyen’s hubby is apparently eager to add to their brood of three children and even goes so far as to introduce the idea of a sister wife.

Q: I’m so excited that Dr. Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh) is returning to “Grey’s Anatomy.” I loved her on “Private Practice,” but “Grey’s” is my favorite show. How long can we expect the character to stick around this time? -- T.G.

A: Kate Walsh shocked “Grey’s Anatomy” fans when she debuted as “Mcdreamy’s” (Patrick Dempsey) estranged wife at the end of season one. Showrunner Shonda Rhimes was such a fan of Walsh that she gave her a spinoff with “Private Practice.” Dr. Addison Montgomery will be returning to “Grey’s” for its impressive 18th season on ABC beginning Thursday, Sept. 30. Walsh’s character is scheduled for a multi-episode story arc along with actors Kate Burton and Peter Gallagher.
