For devoted “Grey’s Anatomy” fans, the wait is finally over! The long-running medical drama is set to return with its highly anticipated midseason premiere this Thursday, March 6, 2025, on ABC. With Season 21 in full swing, the latest episode promises all the emotional rollercoasters, medical dilemmas, and shocking twists that keep audiences hooked.
What to Expect in the Midseason Premiere
The fall finale of Season 21 left fans on edge with an intense cliffhanger. Jo Wilson (Camila Luddington) was shot during an armed store robbery while in labor, leaving viewers desperate to know what happens next. Meanwhile, her romantic partner Atticus Lincoln (Chris Carmack), who is at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, remains unaware of her condition. The midseason premiere will dive straight into the aftermath of these traumatic events.
The episode will also explore other compelling storylines, including:
- Ben Warren (Jason Winston George) struggling with his new emergency preparedness plan.
- Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) facing romantic complications.
- A surgical disagreement between Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) and Dr. Winston Ndugu (Anthony Hill).
When and Where to Watch
Fans can catch the new episode of “Grey’s Anatomy” on Thursday, March 6, at 10 p.m. (all U.S. time zones) on ABC. If you miss the live broadcast, don’t worry—new episodes will be available for streaming on Hulu starting Friday morning. Additionally, the first 20 seasons of the show can be streamed on both Netflix and Hulu.
How Many Episodes Will Season 21 Have?
Season 21 will feature 18 episodes, a significant increase from the previous season, which had only 10 episodes due to the writers’ and actors’ strikes in 2023. The show’s typical format involves a fall premiere with a spring finale, and this season is expected to follow that timeline.
Is Meredith Grey Returning?
The heart of “Grey’s Anatomy,” Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), will appear in at least seven episodes of Season 21, according to Deadline. While Pompeo has taken a step back from her leading role since Season 19, she remains an executive producer and continues to provide the show’s iconic voiceover narration.
