Jaina Lee Ortiz, Station 19
A.B.C.
Station 19, the Grey’s Anatomy spinoff about life at a busy Seattle fire station, is officially returning for Season 7, but it will be its last. The firefighting drama has been a steady fixture on ABC’s Thursday night lineup, so the renewal wasn’t a surprise, especially since flagship series Grey’s Anatomy was also renewed and was set to return for Season 20. But the cancellation came as a bit of a shock.
Season 7 of Station 19 is fast approaching, and we’re here to answer all your questions about the popular series, including when Station 19 will premiere on ABC, who will be appearing in Station 19 Season 7, and where you can stream the next and past seasons of Station 19.
Station 19 Season 7 Latest News
On January 31, ABC released the first “real” trailer for the final season of “Station 19,” and while it’s mostly a compilation of scenes from previous seasons, it’s a great reminder of where things were at the end of Season 6. Check it out in the trailer section below.
Station 19 season 7 release date and number of episodes
Station 19 will return for Season 7 on Thursday, March 14 at 10pm/9pm ET, immediately following Grey’s Anatomy. It will be the series’ final season, a shortened 10-episode season. Station 19 was the opening act for Grey’s Anatomy, but will now follow its sister medical drama, ABC’s newly acquired 9-1-1, which will serve as the opening act for Grey’s at 8pm/7pm ET.
Station 19 was previously expected to be part of ABC’s fall lineup but was postponed due to a writers’ and actors’ strike demanding fair pay.
Station 19 canceled
On December 8, ABC announced that season 7 of Station 19 will be its final season. At just 10 episodes, season 7 will be the shortest season of the firefighter drama to date. The good news is that producers were notified early enough to properly say goodbye to Station 19 — no cliffhangers here! — but it probably won’t appease the diehard fans, who are desperately running a “Save the Show” campaign to keep the show going. There’s no clear explanation for the cancellation, but one theory is that ABC’s acquisition of Fox’s 9-1-1 helped the network make the decision. Not only is 9-1-1 primarily a firefighter drama (along with other emergency personnel dramas), but it also outperformed Station 19 in the ratings, and given its expensive budget, ABC may have had to choose between the two.

New Station 19 season 7 showrunners
Zoan Kulak and Peter Paige will be the new showrunners for Station 19 in Season 7, replacing longtime showrunner and executive producer Krista Vernoff.

Page has directed multiple episodes of Station 19 and became an executive producer on the series in Season 6. He previously co-created Freeform’s The Fosters and Good Trouble.
Vernoff announced in January that she would be leaving both Station 19 and Grey’s Anatomy at the end of their upcoming series.
“It has been the honor of a lifetime to run Grey’s Anatomy for the past six years and Station 19 for the past four,” Vernoff said in a statement reported by The Hollywood Reporter. “It is impossible to overstate the passion of our devoted fans and the impact these shows have on people’s hearts and minds. The talent of these two extraordinary casts and two brilliant writers is immeasurable, and they make magic every week.
