Has Grey's Anatomy Been Renewed For Season 21?

So how do the show’s longest-running cast members feel about “Grey’s Anatomy” potentially being renewed into perpetuity? Pompeo left the show in February 2023 after 19 seasons as the show’s main character, Meredith Grey, but her supporting players have carried on in her stead… and there’s a whole new group of interns to liven up the proceedings. In an interview with Today that also included Caterina Scorsone and Kevin McKidd — who play Dr. Amelia Shepherd and Dr. Owen Hunt, respectively — two of the show’s original actors, Chandra Wilson and James Pickens Jr., said they’re in it for the long haul.

Wilson, who plays the pioneering, powerful Dr. Miranda Bailey, is definitely planning on sticking around: “I feel like, ‘Hey, as long as Bailey still has something to get out there, a lesson to teach, new babies to bring in, why not?'” she said. “While we’re here, let’s make the most of it.”

Pickens Jr., who frequently shares the screen with Wilson as Dr. Richard Webber, her long-time colleague and mentor, agreed with her. “I might be in a wheelchair by the time they decide to call it quits,” he said. “I have no idea.” 

Not only that, but the actor recognizes the show’s enduring popularity has to do with its presence on streaming services like Netflix and Hulu: “Now with all these platforms and stuff shows come and go after 10 episodes or a couple of seasons and then they forget them. This show, we won’t forget — even with the ups and downs.”
