It’s finally time to watch Grey's Anatomy season 18 online, because beach season is over and Meredith is back to work. And you can even watch without cable. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) spent much of last season in a hospital bed fighting COVID and having visions of her dead husband Derek, sister Lexie and friends.
But now, she's performing surgeries again, and everything is as it should be. Well, mostly. This is Grey's Anatomy after all.
Grey's Anatomy season 18 airs Thursday nights at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.
The Grey's Anatomy season 18 premiere is once again a crossover event with Station 19. The episode, titled "Here Comes the Sun," sees the Grey Sloan doctors treating patients injured at Seattle's Phoenix Fair. Meredith is mulling over a big decision when she's surprised by someone from her mother's past, Dr. David Hamilton (Peter Gallagher).
Owen (Kevin McKidd) and Teddy (Kim Raver) are about to tie the knot, but the proceedings go awry. Link (Chris Carmack) is still reeling after Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) turned down his proposal, while Jo (Camilla Luddington) is figuring out how to be a new mom. Amidst all of this, Bailey (Chandra Wilson) needs to hire new doctors, but can't find good candidates.
