Preview — Grey’s Anatomy Season 17 Episodes 1 and 2: All Tomorrow’s Parties / The Center Won’t Hold
“Sometimes, we all need saving.”
Grey’s Anatomy isn’t shying away from dealing with the current situation the world is facing.
The two-hour Grey’s Anatomy Season 17 premiere will pick up one month into the pandemic. It’s all hands on deck at Grey-Sloan Memorial, and the surgeons’ lives have been turned upside down.
The first hour of the premiere is also part of a crossover event with Station 19, where a fire has first responders from Station 19 bringing patients to the hospital.
In the second hour, expect drama with Teddy and Owen and some potentially lighter, fun moments with Amelia and Link as they navigate their lives as new parents.
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview of the two-hour premiere of Grey’s Anatomy, which begins Thursday, November 12th at 9/8c on ABC.
