Grey’s Anatomy Season 19: Storyline

Season 18’s dramatic finale has left Gray Sloan Memorial Hospital in tatters: the residency program has ended, Teddy and Owen are on the run, and Richard and Bailey have also thrown in the towel. And Meredith is also actually drawn away from her well-known workplace and home.

Most recently, she actually wanted to move to Minnesota with her children and new love Nick and accept a job offer in Ohio. But now she has to find a solution to the disastrous situation as quickly as possible.

In season 19, Meredith will have to try to solve the resident physician program and the shortage of doctors at Gray Sloan.

Rhimes himself confirmed that Ellen Pompeo will return to her leading role of Meredith Gray for a 19th season. There had previously been rumors that Pompeo would finally like to put an end to her involvement in the hit doctor series, but the actress could be persuaded to return.

Raised by drug-addicted hippie parents, Millin had to grow up very quickly. Now she wants to prove herself in the new apprenticeship program at Gray Sloan.

On the other hand, the two newcomers Midori Francis and Niko Terho will each start as new residents in their first year of training. Francis becomes the confident one Mika Yasuda portray someone who comes from a large family and is struggling with a mountain of debt.
