After bidding farewell to the title character in 2023, the long-running medical drama never really abandoned Meredith Grey, and now Deadline has revealed that ABC is preparing for Pompeo to make a major return to the show's newest season. The new episodes are set to start rolling out this Fall.
Pompeo is slated to be in at least seven of the 18 episodes that the medical drama will put out in Season 21. The number is pretty hefty for a character that had pretty much gone away and hints at a story arc that might be extremely exciting for the new episodes. Additionally, it was hinted that Pompeo's participation could extend to as many as 14 episodes, which would essentially mean that it would feel like Meredith Grey never left Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
In recent seasons, it wasn't uncommon for Meredith to be sort of absent for a couple of episodes or just have a couple of scenes, especially after the cast grew larger and larger. This is what prompted writers in past seasons to create episodes that they dubbed "All-Meredith," in which the focus was put back on the character after fans started to feel she was too left out.
