Everyone loves a good crossover.
Apparently Shonda Rhimes agrees with that statement, because on Thursday, March 1 at 8 p.m., ABC will be airing a crossover episode that merges the worlds of Grey’s Anatomy and its new spin-off, Station 19. Based on the sneak peek (below), it looks like it’s going to be about as thrilling and entertaining as TV can get.
Station 19 won’t air until March 22, but so far, we know that it follows a team of firefighters in Seattle, and that one of the main protagonists is Andy Herrera, played by Jaina Lee Ortiz. This crossover episode has Andy in a tough situation — her hand is the only thing that is keeping a young boy alive after he was rescued from a fire (trust me, it makes more sense in the trailer).
There’s sure to be tons of drama unfolding throughout the episode, especially with some new characters thrown into the mix, and I for one am excited to see how it all plays out — and to get a first impression of the characters in Station 19.
The fact that both Grey’s and Station 19 are set in Seattle will likely mean that we’ll get more crossover episodes in the future. And don’t forget, after one crossover episode ends, another begins — Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder are doing their own huge crossover event the same night.
In short, Shondaland keeps on doing what it does best: making Thursdays the best night of the week.
