Though the ratings have dropped and many castmembers have left over the years, Grey’s Anatomy has remained one of ABC’s highest-rated drama series. How long can this run continue? How long will people keep watching? It surely won’t be cancelled soon but, how quickly will it be renewed for a 14th season? Stay tuned.
Grey’s Anatomy revolves around the personal and professional lives of the surgical residents, fellows, and attendings in the surgical wing of the fictional Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital in Seattle, Washington. The ensemble cast includes Ellen Pompeo, Justin Chambers, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr., Kevin McKidd, Jessica Capshaw, Jesse Williams, Sarah Drew, Caterina Scorsone, Camilla Luddington, Jerrika Hinton, Kelly McCreary, Martin Henderson, Jason George, and Giacomo Gianniotti.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/19 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

Last year comparison: The 12th season of Grey’s Anatomy averaged a 2.22 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 8.04 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Grey’s Anatomy TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a 14th season?
2/10 update: ABC has renewed Grey’s Anatomy for season 14. Details here.
I am a very big fan and always will be , there are really good stories and I don’t miss an episode……please let there be more seasons. I look forward to Thursday nights every week.
Definitely like 20 more seasons I love watching this. The only one I keep up with that I’m into. I think for each episode it needs to be 2 hours. Because of all the commercial
Definitely a few more seasons, yes season 14 had it’s downs, but definitely ended on a super high!!! Can not not have another season!! Please, at least one more brilliant season Shonda??? Thank you for your brilliant work!!!
Usually a show that’s been on this long has jumped the shark by now. But somehow Grey’s seems to keep it fresh with interesting storylines. I’m willing to watch for another season.

I love this show and never miss it. But Season 13 has been my least favorite by far. What was always a good mix of victories and tragedies, laughter and tears, has become a depressing hour each week where everyone is pissed at one another and patients never survive. The writers haven’t let ANYONE be happy this season for longer than half an episode and if they can’t turn that around, then there’s no one and nothing to root for, which ruins the viewing experience.
I love this show!!! please keep going to season 14 I need to see what happens!
Please continue greys anatomy my family watches it every time it’s on. We record it on our dvr if we aren’t home! It’s our family tv night where we can all sit together and season 13 has us wanting season 14 out now! Lol
Love it all the way and def should be renewed for season 14!!!
Without Derek the show sucks Riggs is no Derek-everyone is mean and hateful now. getting old and tired too much drama no one pulls together. miss the old cast will not watch any of Shondra’s shows.
It deserves to have ALOT of SEASONS
