New Grey’s Anatomy spin-off series leaves fans baffled

  • ABC has commissioned an untitled one-hour spin-off of the long-running medical drama Grey's Anatomy , which will focus on a team at a rural medical centre in West Texas .
  • The new series is anticipated to premiere during the 2026 to 2027 broadcast season, further expanding the Grey's Anatomy universe.
  • Original Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo is attached as an executive producer, alongside series creator Shonda Rhimes and current showrunner Meg Marinis, who expressed excitement about setting the show in her home state of Texas.
