Grey’s Anatomy
Warning ! raider forGrey ’s Anatomyseason 18 ahead .
Grey ’s Anatomyseason 18 instalment 14 highlighted a potential conclusion that might be worse for Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital than Meredith leaving . Although ABC ’s long - running medical play was renewed for season 19 in January , with Ellen Pompeo sustain to come back as Meredith Grey , Grey ’s Anatomy ’s end has long been moot . Pompeo even discover in an interview that she ’s been trying to convince everybody thatGrey ’s Anatomyshould end , making watcher wonder if , in the future , there will be a version ofGrey ’s Anatomywithout agonist Meredith Grey . While that wo n’t be the case forGrey ’s Anatomyseason 19 , what awaitsGrey Sloan Memorialmight be even bad .
Even though Pompeo ’s Meredith has been central to the show inGrey ’s Anatomyseasons 17 and 18 , she also became less involved with the occurrent inside Grey Sloan Memorial . As season 17 see her getting Covid and then trying to recuperate , Meredith was often less seen interacting with the respite of the doctors . The same became true even inGrey ’s Anatomyseason 18 , as Meredith decide to separate her working hours between Seattle and Rochester , Minnesota , to be involved in the study to cure Parkinson ’s . While Pompeo is confirmed to return , Meredith was not as central to the life inside the hospital as other characters were , such as Maggie ( Kelly McCreary ) orJo ( Camilla Luddington ) .

Being a show that lose all its central characters through the years except for Meredith , Miranda Bailey ( Chandra Wilson ) , and Richard Webber ( James Pickens Jr. ) , many have speculated that the uncollectible possible outcome would be Meredith Grey leaving before the terminal of the show . Still , Grey ’s Anatomyseason 18 episode 14 outline a possibility that would be even worse than Meredith leaving , as it would mine the very heart of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital . As the episode ’s end showed , Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital have an prescribed notification from the Medical Accreditation Council of its intention to close down Grey Sloan ’s abidance program .
Grey Sloan ’s residency curriculum ’s suffering in the post - Covid worldGrey ’s Anatomyseason 18is set in was a storyline built throughout the time of year , starting from season 18 ’s premiere when Bailey could be realise struggling with both all the attending either resigning or retiring , and the essential to make a program that could be appealing to residents . The residency programme seemed to get better when Richard introduce the Webber Method , which would give residents to lock alone until the knavish part of it was reach , and they had to expect for the attendings to be present to complete it . However , the Webber Method fail miserably when nonmigratory Levi Schmitt ( Jake Borelli ) did n’t stop and lose a affected role , which put a arrest to the method and Levi ’s career . The council ’s notification is just the last straw , as Grey Sloan ’s abidance program had suffer throughoutGrey ’s Anatomyseason 18 .
If Grey Sloan were to lose the residency program , the show would misplace a core element , as it was always emphasized how it had always been a teaching infirmary . Grey ’s Anatomy ’s whole assumption was to follow the appendage of MAGIC as they practiced to become attending , and resident had always reached the infirmary , providing various interesting storyline and character arcs . turn a loss its occupier and the program would make Grey Sloan to turn into just another infirmary for the characters , but also for how the show specialise itself from other aesculapian dramatic play .
It ’s strange whether the notification will bring the end of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital . The notification from the council might just be the openhanded crisis the protagonists will have to confront in season 18 , not causing the political program to close down in the conclusion . If it did , though , Grey ’s Anatomywould loseone of the very thing that had always been a constant and which made it alone .
