Looks like the Walker family is shrinking again on Brothers & Sisters.

First Balthazar Getty and his lovely onscreen wife Sarah Jane Morris went away, then Rob Lowe (whose character died in the season finale), and now I'm hearing...

GMMR's report is true that Emily VanCamp's role is being downsized in the upcoming season, meaning she won't appear in every episode. "They're still working out the exact number," says one source who works on the show. I'm told she'll be a recurring character.

As we've been reporting for a while now, "Bros and Hos" (as Dave Annable likes to call it) is dealing with budget cuts for its expensive and sizeable cast, which lead to the exit of Lowe in May, and now fewer episodes for VanCamp.

The good news? I'm told that despite rumors a few months ago, Calista Flockhart will most definitely be back as a series regular, along with Rachel Griffiths, and we'll be seeing more Gilles Marini, too. Plus, those Walker dinners will still be awesome.

Will you miss seeing Miss Rebecca (Emily) in every episode?
