Lauren Piester “Station 19” is about to hit a huge milestone, but it’s bittersweet. Just three days into production on Season 7 of the “Grey’s Anatomy” spinoff, as plans for a celebratory 100th episode were beginning to develop, new showrunners Peter Paige and Zoanne Clack learned that the show had been canceled.
Season 7 would be its last, tasking them with not only ushering the show into a new era, but also to a satisfying ending. They were not prepared. “I was sitting on the floor in my underwear, writing,” Paige tells Variety.
Clack adds, “I was on a panel in front of 100 people getting constant phone calls, trying to play it off. I didn’t hear what the actual news was until after the panel.” “Station 19” premiered in March 2018, midway through Season 14 of “Grey’s Anatomy.” A backdoor pilot introduced Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) to her firefighting equivalent Andy Herrera (Jaina Lee Ortiz), but the thread between the two shows was Ben Warren (Jason George), the career-hopping husband of Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson).
Being a surgeon was no longer satisfying to him, so he decided to try firefighting. In Seattle, firefighters are also certified paramedics, meaning his medical training wouldn’t go to waste, but he would be starting from the bottom of the ladder, so to speak.
