Season 21 of Grey’s Anatomy enjoyed a nice, long winter hiatus, but the hit medical drama returns soon. Here’s where, when and how to watch.
When does Grey’s Anatomy come back?
6 March 2025! Grab your wine and popcorn, and get ready to return to Grey Sloan Memorial.
Where did Grey’s leave off?
Season 21 saw the introduction of Sophia Bush’s new character, Dr. Cass Beckman. But the first half ended on a decidedly tense note, with Jo (Camilla Luddington) and Lucas (Niko Terho) getting caught up in a convenience-store robbery. Jo, who is pregnant, began bleeding, while Lucas tried to wrestle the robber’s gun away — and it went off. As you can see in a sneak peek on Entertainment Weekly, Jo survives the incident, but someone’s on the table…coding.

When does Grey’s air?
The prime-time hit began its 21st season in a new time slot in the US at 10 pm on Thursdays on ABC, later than previous season, with new episodes available the next day on Hulu.
Traditionally, the later a show airs, the more “adult” it’s allowed to be, as children have presumably gone to bed. “I’ll push whatever boundaries they’ll let me push. But I’ll say, the show will still be the show. If we can get a few more risqué subject matters or steamy scenes, we’ll do it. But I won’t do it just for the sake of a time slot. We’re Grey’s Anatomy, people will find us wherever we are,” showrunner Meg Marinis told The Hollywood Reporter.
Previous episodes have been available for UK audiences on Disney+, so we are assuming this will be the case for the show’s midseason return.
Meg also hinted that climate change is one of the season-long themes, revealing, “Obviously, we’re experiencing climate change so much in LA that it’s really been a hot topic in the writers room — no pun intended!…
“The topics that we tackle are relevant to the medical field. There are some stories that come in that are not as pertinent, but we’re really looking at things from the doctors’ points of view and the healthcare point of view. We did COVID from the doctors’ point of view, and we did reproductive rights from the doctors’ point of view. So when we look at topics to explore, that’s always where we’re looking.”
