Grey's Anatomy Is Coming Back for a 15th Season—and Setting a Major Record on the Way
Grey’s Anatomy has been around for a whopping 14 seasons, and honestly, there have been so many ups and downs and rollercoasters and heart-wrenching moments and steamy sexing sessions and just…emotions that it would take far too much time to recount the best of them here. Who even has the stamina for that kind of writing? Besides, it’s better look to the future than to the past—and as it turns out, the future means we can look forward to season 15 of Grey’s Anatomy Hallelujah, everyone.
ABC, the show’s home—and where it ranks No. 1 for primetime dramas among adults 18-49—announced on Friday that it would be renewing Shonda Rhimes’ famous hospital show for yet another season. That means, says ABC, that Grey’s is going to be ABC’s longest-running primetime drama series, and (here’s a watercooler fact) only seven TV dramas have ever run for longer. The current season, its 14th, is currently the most-watched in four years, so fans, the execs at ABC heard you. And they delivered.
The news isn’t exactly what you’d call a surprise: Grey’s is the series that keeps on giving to the audience and accountants alike, so whether it was going to be up for cancellation or not wasn’t up for debate. But any good news is good news in 2018—or whatever year it is on Grey’s—so we’re especially stoked about this.
We don’t yet know when it will begin filming, but you can bet we’ll keep you posted as we know more. In the meantime, at least Grey’s spin-off Station 19 is here to keep us company.
