ABC has confirmed that "Grey's Anatomy" will return for its 23rd season on 15 October, cementing its status as the longest-running medical drama in American network television history. The renewal comes amid a broader resurgence of the medical drama genre, driven largely by the success of HBO's "The Pitt", which has also revived interest in shows such as "Doc" and "New Amsterdam".

The new season premieres at 10 p.m., airing two hours after the return of "9-1-1" and an hour after its spin-off "9-1-1: Nashville". ABC also announced that "R.J. Decker" will begin its second season on 15 September, part of a wave of autumn schedule announcements from major US networks, including similar date confirmations from CBS for shows like "Tracker" and "Marshals".
In short
- "Grey's Anatomy" Season 23 premieres 15 October on ABC
- Now the longest-running US network medical drama, at 22 seasons
- Airs after new "9-1-1" and "9-1-1: Nashville" premieres
Explained simply
Grey's Anatomy is an American television medical drama that has been broadcast since 2005. The show follows the professional and personal lives of surgeons training and working at a fictional teaching hospital, blending medical storylines with interpersonal drama.
The series holds the distinction of being the longest-running medical drama in American network television history. Interest in medical dramas has surged in recent years, partly driven by the success of newer series like HBO's "The Pitt", which has revived audiences' appetite for hospital-based storytelling.
Grey's Anatomy remains a flagship series for ABC, and its continuation reflects both its enduring popularity with viewers and the network's ongoing investment in the show. The resurgence of the medical drama genre has helped sustain programmes of this kind, demonstrating that audience interest in stories centred on healthcare remains strong.
