Grey’s Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes hired security after death threats – Digital Spy

Greys Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes has revealed that she hired private security for her house following death threats from fans of the show.

The writer has a wealth of hit shows under her belt, including Greys, Scandal and, most recently, Bridgerton.

In an interview with The Sunday Times to promote the upcoming third season of the Netflix period drama, Rhimes opened up about how her shows have evoked intense reactions from viewers online.

"Social media changed," she said. "Fans have passionate feelings, and I was always fine with that. I understand that the characters felt like their friends. They were my imaginary friends too. Thats why I was writing them. And I think people just had very strong feelings about what happened with their friends. But then it became weird."

Rhimes revealed that after every season finale of Greys Anatomy, she received death threats from fans who were unhappy with how she had ended the episode. As a result, she had to have a police car parked outside her house for a week each time.

"They got mean," she explained. "And you never knew who was going to really take offence in the wrong way."

Things then escalated even further, as Rhimes eventually had to employ private 24-hour security for her Los Angeles home, with the producer explaining that it was "because people are dangerous and strange".

Rhimes shared that her children were behind her decision to introduce these measures to protect her safety.

She said: "I wanted to just be able to walk out my front door and hang out with my kids and not be worried. I would lay awake at night with stress. I had some very helpful friends whod had similar experiences, who were able to give me a lot of perspective, and who were adamant that if you cant live normally then youre not going to be able to live."

In the same interview, Rhimes revealed that the one British series she wishes she had created is Doctor Who, saying, "I have been obsessed with that show forever."

Bridgerton seasons 1-2 are streaming now on Netflix, along with Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. Season 3 premieres in two parts, on May 16 and June 13.

Grey's Anatomy season 20 and Station 19's final season are airing on ABC in the US. Both shows stream on Disney+ in the UK.

Fans Reveal Frustration Over ‘Grey’s Anatomy,’ ‘Station 19’ Crossovers Weekly – TV Shows Ace

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!

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.

'Grey's Anatomy' Roundup: Who's Leaving, Who Has a Budding Romance and Why the Show Is Going Back to Its Roots for Season 14Wednesday, September 06, 2017

Who's Out of Grey Sloan?

Going Back to Its Roots

Grey's Anatomy will be welcoming backKrista Vernoff, who wrote and executive produced the series for its first eight seasons. The return of Vernoff is expected to bring back some much-needed levity.

"We're touching base in a meaningful way with where we left off with all the characters from last season and to contain that much story in two hours, you have to keep it light, bouncy and fun -- and Krista Vernoff brings that shift to the show," added Kelly McCreary (Maggie).

"It's funnier, it's sexier, it's lighter," Gianniotti said. "We're going to have fun this season. There's just been a lot of separation and loss, so we want to show the characters having some fun. Also, a lot of the men are single now, so we're going to explore what that dynamic is like."

A Budding Romance

The season 13 finale seemingly paved the way for a potential new romance between Maggie and Jackson -- courtesy of April, who took notice of the connection. This leaves plenty of questions not just among fans but for the characters involved as well. While it's not yet safe to assume a April-Jackson-Maggie love triangle, Maggie (at least) will be dealing with April's truth bomb.

What's In Store for Jo?

The past several seasons have been tough on Jo but she may finally catch a break in season 14. Apart from exploring her domestic violence storyline, love may be in the cards for her as well.

"This season Jo may feel inspired by someone again," added the actress, who has heard Jo may find a new mentor in Season 14.

And now that her best friend Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton) is no longer around, she may find someone else to lean on.

Eric Dane Reveals He's Only Watched Three Episodes of Grey's Anatomy

Eric Dane may have played Dr. Mark Sloan on Grey's Anatomy for six seasons but that doesn't mean he's an avid fan who religiously watches the ABC series. In fact, he's only seen three episodes during his time on the show.

That doesn't mean, however, that he doesn't keep in touch with some of his Grey's Anatomy co-stars. "Shonda's great," said Dane, who is currently starring on The Last Ship. "I'm still friends with her to this day. One thing that you do with Shonda is that you don't deviate. That's one of the biggest lessons you learn, is that you stick to the script."

Is ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ on Tonight, April 20th? – Heavy.com

GREYS ANATOMY You Can Look (But Youd Better Not Touch)- Bailey, Arizona and Jo go to a maximum security womens prison to treat a violent, 16-year-old pregnant girl and her unborn baby, on the midseason premiere of Greys Anatomy, THURSDAY, JANUARY 26th. (ABC)<

Unfortunately, there is no new Greys Anatomy on tonight, Thursday, April 20th.

Thats right well have to wait another week to see how Maggie reacts to the whole Meredith-and-Riggs-together deal.

In its place, ABC will air an old Scandal episode. The good news? Itll be back in one week, with a new episode titled Dont Stop Me Now. The synopsis for the episode reads: Bailey and April work to fix things between Richard and Catherine. Meanwhile, Eliza continues to pursue Arizona; and one of Alexs previous patients returns to the hospital.

Another bit of good news is that Season 14 of the show has been confirmed by the network, so theres a lot more to look forward to. What else? The show wont be taking another break after this! Starting next week, ABC will air all season 13 episodes in successive weeks with no gaps, so you dont have any more weeks off to break up your Greys watching.

On last weeks episode, Nathan and Meredith were on their way to a convention when their plane hit a rough patch of turbulence. Luckily, the doctors were there to save the day and take care of the injured passengers. Amid the chaos, Nathan was able to persuade Meredith to give their relationship a try one little problem: Maggie. In the promo, we see Nathan rubbing Merediths shoulder and making it clear to Maggie that the two are an item. Meredith then stares at herself in the mirror, realizing that Maggie will never forgive her.

In a recent interview with TVLine, Kelly McCreary discussed Maggies feelings about Nathan and Merediths secret romance. [on the other hand, Meredith and Maggie have] gone through something so extreme together, and I think the whole Nathan question has been completely irrelevant this whole time. So when it comes up again, I think it becomes about weighing, Oh, theres this guy that I liked against this life-and-death experience that theyve shared.

Dont miss a new episode of Greys Anatomy next Thursday, April 27 at 8/7c on ABC.
