The seventh season of “Grey’s Anatomy” spin-off “Station 19” will be its last, ABC announced. That’s what producer Shonda Rhimes says.
“Station 19”, also known in this country as “Seattle Firefighters – The Young Heroes”, is coming to an end. The spin-off of the successful hospital series “Grey’s Anatomy” ends after seven seasons, as Deadline reports. The decision is said to have been made at the start of production on the season, ensuring a fitting ending for the drama series. In the final season, the series about the employees of the “Station 19” fire station will reach the 100 episode mark. 95 episodes have been shown so far and the seventh season will consist of ten episodes. The series has repeatedly offered crossover episodes with “Grey’s Anatomy” in recent seasons.
