‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Season 18 Is Coming Back a Lot Sooner Than You Think
It’s been only a few months since the season 17 finale of Grey’s Anatomy aired, and I feel like I can’t be the only one still processing what happened. I mean, Meredith is now running the residency program at Grey Sloan, and she may be in a RELATIONSHIP with Dr. McIrish. Teddy and Owen are all boo’d up for the moment, and Maggie and Winston are married! Honestly, it’s the perfect ending to a v chaotic season…and I’m kinda ready for more.
If you’re like me, there’s one major question on your mind: When is Grey's Anatomy season 18 coming to our screens and giving us the perfect Thursday-night watch party? We know the show just got renewed, but COME ON—we need to get Meredith back on TV soon!
Well, lucky for you, there are some answers to this very important question.
When is Grey’s Anatomy coming back?
Luckily for us, the series will be back soon. ABC announced that Grey's Anatomy season 18 will premiere on September 30. It'll also stick to its Thursday at 9 PM ET timeslot, so make sure to mark your calendars accordingly or you might get hit with spoilers when you open Twitter as it airs.
Are any new characters coming to Grey Sloan?
That is up to Shondaland to determine for us. We do know this: Most of the cast members have renewed their contracts through a possible season 19 (thank god), so there will likely be lots of familiar faces. As for new people, Meredith is now running the residency program, so we can probably expect a newly minted doc or two. TBD!
Biggest question: Will season 18 be the final Grey's season?
Again, you’d need to speak to Shondaland! Deadline did make it extremely clear that Ellen Pompeo signed just a one-year extension contract, and TBH she can’t do this show forever. Coupled with the exits of some big names on season 18 like Jesse Williams, and Ellen might just hang up her latex gloves and call it a day.
That said: Nothing is what it seems in the world of television. After all, we all thought season 17 would be the last time we’d see the staff of Grey Sloan. And look what happened there! So really, there’s no telling with this show. And with its extremely dedicated fan base? Um, yeah, there’s definitely more to this.
