Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19 Renewed

ABC has renewed the series Grey’s Anatomy for season 18 and its Station 19 spin-off for season five.

Executive producer and showrunner Krista Vernoff will continue to helm both series. In the 2020-21 season, Grey’s Anatomy ranks as the number one entertainment series among adults 18 to 49 and as ABC’s number one show this season in both total viewers (8.3 million) and adults 18 to 49. Station 19 ranks as the number one program in the Thursday 8 p.m. hour this season among total viewers (7.2 million).

“Station 19 and Grey’s Anatomy have done an incredible job of honoring real-life heroes by giving audiences an unflinching look at one of the biggest medical stories of our time,” said Craig Erwich, president of Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment. “Krista and her team of writers have continued to deliver the compelling and compassionate storytelling that is a hallmark of these shows and created some of the year’s most-talked-about moments in television. We’re so grateful to our talented casts and crews for their extraordinary work that connects with viewers everywhere, and we look forward to sharing even more defining moments with our fans next season.”

“The writers, directors, casts and crews of Grey’s Anatomy and Station 19 worked so hard to bring these shows to life this past season,” said Vernoff. “Keeping each other safe on set while paying tribute to the front-line heroes and first responders has been a challenge and a privilege. I’ve been truly blown away—particularly by our tireless crews—as they reinvented the TV-making wheel. Thank you to ABC and ABC Signature for the support and extraordinary partnership through this unprecedented season. We are so grateful for the opportunity to tell more stories.”
