Days after his characters surprise appearance in the Season 17 premiere of Greys Anatomy, Patrick Dempsey appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to talk about his return to the ABC medical drama.

Derek, who died tragically five and a half years go, came back in a beach dream Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) slipped into after collapsing in the parking lot of Grey Sloan Memorial.

Speaking with Deadline about the premiere last week, Greys Anatomy showrunner Krista Vernoff would not say whether Meredith was OK, and if the collapse was a result of her just being overworked or was it something serious, like COVID, since she has been working almost exclusively with COVID patients.

The promo for this weeks episode (you can watch it below) features Meredith in a hospital bed being tended to by colleagues in full PPE as she is struggling to breathe.

In answering DeGeneres question about how his secret cameo came about, Dempsey confirmed Merediths COVID diagnosis.

He spoke about how he and Pompeo got together in July and brainstormed what they could do to make people wear masks, musing about how great it would be for the fans to see everyone reunited in this sort of bizarre way when Pompeo suggested that he returned to the show.

And to the credit of the writers, Krista came up with this great idea where I will come and visit her in her COVID dream, Dempsey said.

He also provided more information about how long his character will stick around, and it is great news for Meredith-Derek fans. In last weeks interview with Deadline, Dempsey said that he enjoyed the reunion in the premiere and was game for more episodes, while Vernoff said about Dempseys presence on the show this season, its more than the one scene you saw in the premiere. Dereks presence will be fairly extensive, Dempsey revealed on Ellen.

Asked by DeGeneres how many more episodes he will be in this season, Dempsey said, Im not sure how many. I know Im throughout this season, he comes back to visit.

And that is OK by Dempsey who likes playing a vision that brings Meredith joy and peace.

There are so many souls that we have lost right now so the idea of having angels around us is very comforting, at least to me, he said.

Here is Dempseys Ellen interview, followed by the promo for this weeks Greys Anatomy episode.

Patrick Dempsey Teases Meredith's Diagnosis, The Length Of His 'Grey's Anatomy' Return On 'Ellen' - Deadline

A new shocking and jaw-dropping teaser has been released for the much-anticipated premiere of the "Grey's Anatomy" and "Station 19" crossover, which is set to hit the screens on November 12.

With just three weeks before fans of the beloved ABC dramas "Grey's Anatomy" and "Station 19" get to see the three-hour crossover premiere event, the network has released a captivatingteaser to whet fans' appetites.

In the 30 seconds promo clip, fans get to have a look at what to expect as the doctors and firefighters respond to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which would be explored. It began with a scene of Meredith Grey, played by Ellen Pompeo in complete personal protective equipment, which includes a face shield.

Looking stressed and desperate, Grey stands in the middle of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital with her together as if offering a prayer while she says, "sometimes we all need saving." It followed by a dramatic frame of Miranda Bailey, played by Chandra Wilson, looking through the glass and asking for a miraculous intervention.

Scenes from "Station 19" then come into play before there is an alternation between both shows. It is, however, the ending of the teaser that is the highlight of the promo as the background voice assures viewers that the premier would leave everyone shocked and saying, "Oh my god."

Season 17 of the medical series was first teased last month when Pompeo shared a photo of the crew on the first day on set after returning following the halt the pandemic brought to productions.

Before the image, Pompeo's co-star Giacomo Gianniotti confirmed that the new season would take off a bit farther from where things stopped in the previous season.

Its firefighter spin-off is set to return for its fourth season and explore the shocking revelation that Andy's mother, Elena, is not dead but alive. The show explores the lives and careers of the firefighters at the Seattle Fire Station 19, which is about three blocks away from Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.

"Station 19" is the second spin-off of the award-winning "Grey's Anatomy," with the first being "Private Practice." The crossover would see Ben Warren, played by Jason George, and Andy Herrera, by Jaina Lee Ortiz, visit the hospital after a rescue mission that saved two boys from a house fire.

They take the boys for surgery and Warren who is a doctor turned firefighter is tasked with the decision to help out while Herrerra's hand remains in the victim's abdomen to stop him from bleeding.

Both shows premiere on November 12 with "Station 19" taking the lead at 8 pm and "Grey's Anatomy" coming in shortly by 9 pm. Other ABC shows set to premiere next month include "Good Doctor" on November 2, "Big Sky," on November 17, followed by "For Life" on November 18.

Grey's Anatomy is going to be including the coronavirus in its upcoming 17th season, and the latest details reveal that in doing so, the premiere will pick up "a month and a half into full COVID."

While production shut down on Season 16 four episodes early, the finale did leave a few storylines up in the air. What we see next from at least some of them will be affected by this time jump, whether it's how it plays out onscreen, like for the relationships of Drs. Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Teddy Altman (Kim Raver), or what we'll now have to learn via flashbacks or in conversations, like Drs. Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) and Atticus "Link" Lincoln (Chris Carmack) naming their baby.

Scroll down for the storylines we expect to play out a bit differently in Season 17.

Grey's Anatomy, Season 17, Fall 2020, ABC

As Season 16 came to an end, Teddy and Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) were about to get married until he learned of her affair with ex-boyfriend Dr. Tom Koracick (Greg Germann) via a voicemail she accidentally left him. He postponed the ceremony, ostensibly for work, but withGreys now picking up a month and a half later, Teddy will have to already know that Owen knows about Tom and the immediate fallout of that will have happened off-screen.

But how will quarantining and taking care of patients at the hospital affect the doctors? Will Teddy and Owen be living together with the kids? Will one be quarantining separately for the rest of the familys health and safety? Will there be some personal revelations as a result of whats happening in the world? Could personal relationships have been put on hold by the time we catch up to the doctors in the premiere? We likely wont be able to determine whats happened based on rings (or lack thereof), considering the doctors will be wearing PPE (personal protective equipment) at the hospital.

Meredith and Dr. Andrew DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) hit a rough patch in Season 16, and at the end of the finale, his mental health was more important than their relationship status. But the hospitals new doctor, Cormac Hayes (Richard Flood), was also set up as a potential love interest for Meredith after Cristina sent him to her as a gift.

Flood has been promoted to series regular for Season 17, suggesting that there could be a full-blown love triangle coming. But with the time jump and the coronavirus storyline, chances are that what each doctor is doing to help and where theyre quarantining will be a factor in where we find the relationships in the premiere. Are Meredith and Hayes able to stay with their kids? Is DeLuca with Meredith or perhaps with his sister, Dr. Carina DeLuca (Stefania Spampinato, now a series regular onStation 19)? That may depend on the next storyline

The spinoff saw Carina telling her girlfriend, firefighter Maya Bishop (Danielle Savre), my dad has bipolar I, and my sweet baby brother has inherited it. Over onGreys, he hadnt received a diagnosis yet, and Carina had only suspected the reason for his recent behavior.

Well likely skip even more of that storyline, including what happened when Meredith took him home at the end of the finale, by picking up a month and half later. Sure, there could be some flashbacks, but those would be to provide context for what we see play out in the present-day scenes.

In the finale, Amelia gave birth to her and Links son, but his name wasnt revealed. With the month and a half jump, that boy is going to already have a name, so well miss out on that conversation onscreen (and a flashback after its revealed probably wont be the same), as well as the days following them bringing him home from the hospital.

Last season, Dr. Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary) reconnected with Dr. Winston Ndugu at a medical conference, and after that one episode, Anthony Hill has been upped to series regular for Season 17. That suggests that Winston does in fact make the move to Seattle that hed said he would. Their (potential) relationship had taken a backseat when her father, Dr. Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.), fell ill and everyone worked together to determine his diagnosis.

With the time jump, we could possibly see Winston already in Seattle, instead of watching his arrival and what that means for him and Maggie play out onscreen in the beginning. Could they already be together when we see them for the first time in the premiere?

Richard and Dr. Catherine Foxs (Debbie Allen) marriage fell apart (making for a very awkward dinner) last season, but as he began his recovery from cobalt poisoning (as a result of a hip replacement), she had had a change of heart. The only problem is he hadnt. But just like his medical crisis led to her thinking about their future, might the coronavirus pandemic do the same for either of them?

Get ready for a bit of a time jump whenGrey's Anatomy Season 17 begins.

The new episodes pick up "a month and a half into full COVID, so it's going to take place a little bit beyond where we left off," Giacomo Gianniotti, who plays Dr. Andrew DeLuca, told ET.

In terms of filling in the gaps in the story, "we might have some flashbacks. We might have some things where we're referencing last season." Filming is set to start in September, but that could change, as it already has; they were previously looking to begin this month.

While he hasn't read a script yet, he does have some sort of idea of what viewers will see on-screen, just in terms of keeping the actors safe."We're going to be wearing full [personal protective equipment] of course, as we're going to take place in coronavirus on the show when we start the season. All of our characters will be justifiably protected," Gianniotti explained. Because they play doctors, "we're uniquely lucky that we get to wear PPE."

(ABC/Kelsey McNeal)

Grey's recently promoted Richard Flood, who plays Dr. Cormac Hayes, to series regular, suggesting that we'll see more of Dr. Meredith Grey's (Ellen Pompeo) love triangle in Season 17. With his character the other part of it, Gianniotti expects that as well.

Last season, DeLuca and Meredith's relationship hit a rough patch, and as it ended, he was going through quite a bit in terms of his mental health. (The firefighter spinoffStation 19 appeared to confirm he's bipolar, through a conversation between his sister, Stefania Spampinato'sDr. Carina DeLuca, and her girlfriend, Danielle Savre's firefighter Maya Bishop.) According to Gianniotti, that may have opened the door for Hayes to be "much more desirable and stable and more of a compatible partner" for Meredith.

When Will 'Grey's Anatomy' Season 17 Pick Up? - TVInsider

Grey's Anatomy actress Camilla Luddington came close to playing a pivotal role on The Vampire Diaries, and it would have stopped her from playing Jo Wilson.

Luddington took to Twitter over the weekend to reveal characters she had auditioned for in the past, and one of them was Rebekah Mikaelson on The Vampire Diaries.

Claire Holt ultimately landed the role and also went on to star in New Orleans-set spinoff The Originals.

"Was reminiscing with my husband about some roles we auditioned for (over a decade ago) and didn't get," Luddington tweeted. "I was thinking it might be fun to share just a couple ha!!!!

"I auditioned for (and Obvs didn't get but thought it would be so fun to play) Rebekah on #TheVampireDiaries."

Fans were shocked, with one suggesting that Luddington wouldn't have been cast in Grey's Anatomy had she been successful in auditioning for Vampire Diaries, prompting the star to reply:

"I would not being playing Jo, that's exactly right!"

Luddington also auditioned for the parts of Alex Dupre on One Tree Hill, as well as Alex on Nikita.

Jana Kramer ultimately snagged the role of Alex, while Lyndsy Fonseca played Alex.

"I auditioned and realllllly wanted Alex in #Nikita but the wonderful Lyndsy Fonseca killed it in that role," she said.

Luddington joined the cast Grey's Anatomy in 2012, and was promoted to series regular for the next season.

Jo blossomed into one of the best characters on Grey's Anatomy, and it seems the character will continue to develop well into next year.

The series has been renewed for Season 17, but there's a lot of material for Jo to work with. She's still trying to come to terms with the fact that her husband left her -- for his ex.

If you watch Grey's Anatomy online, you know Jo claimed she was ready to move on, but there will likely be some changes for her when the next season gets underway.

What are your thoughts on this bombshell?

Grey's Anatomy Star Camilla Luddington on The Vampire Diaries? It Almost Happened! - TV Fanatic

Most fans of Greys Anatomy have watched the show for years. Recently they added a spin-off calledStation 19. A lot of people watch both shows, but not everyone jumped on board with the new series. Now fans are sharing their frustration over the fact that they are basically a crossover every week.

Some weeks they callGreys Anatomy andStation 19 a crossover. Other weeks, it just happens to be that way. This season they have really started making the two hours worth of television seem like one big show. One big part of it is that Avery is now dating a character onStation 19 meaning that he will show up on that series a lot.

This week they are advertising a blizzard crossover event. When the episode is revealed that way, fans know they have to watch both. Other weeks you could be confused if you only watch one or decide to watchGreys first.

Fans are not very happy about the way that this is happening lately. Some like to watch both shows and others only watch one of them. The other thing is that if you use a DVR normally you could choose which one you would prefer to watch first. That isnt an option anymore. You now need to watchStation 19 first so you arent confused.

This seems like it is a way to bring in new viewers, but instead, it appears they are turning off some of their faithful fans.Greys Anatomy has been able to make it through a few really big cast changes. Now with the exit of Justin Chambers basically being ignored and the crossover events some fans are just done.

After a promo for both shows aired duringThe Bachelor, fans went to Twitter to air their frustrations. Here are a few of the tweets from fans.

I watch Grey's Anatomy I do NOT watch Station19! I gave Station19 a chance on the night it first aired back after the car crashed through the Windows of the bar but I soon realized that Station19 didn't do much of anything after getting that door unstuck therefore it is boring!

~Jasmine~~M~~Murray~ (@JasMarieMurray) February 24, 2020

So I havent watched Greys Anatomy all season. do I need to watch Station 19 and Greys back to back for each new episode? @GreysABC @Station19

Diamond Dawn (@DropOfADime_) February 25, 2020

Stop with the Station 19/Greys Anatomy cross overs!!

Meredith Mannier (@MereMannier) February 17, 2020

The viewers will just have to wait and see if the writers listen and decide to changes things up. For now, dont miss new episodes of Greys AnatomyandStation 19 on Thursday nights on ABC. You will probably need to watch both.
