Season 13 (Grey's Anatomy)

The thirteenth season of Grey's Anatomy premiered September 22, 2016, and consisted of 24 episodes. It was broadcast on Thursday nights at 8 PM on ABC as part of the TGIT line-up.
==Summary==
Performing medical miracles on a daily basis makes the surgeons of Grey Sloan Memorial consider themselves a breed apart from mere mortals. However, what works in the O.R. doesn't always cut it in the "real world." And when the gloves and scrubs come off, they often find that fixing their own chaotic lives takes a lot more than neatly tied sutures.
After being on her own for some time, Meredith is beginning to explore the idea of a romance with Riggs. Unfortunately, Maggie desires him as well, which threatens to drive a bitter wedge between the sisters. At the same time, despite their differences, Jackson and April must come together when they are assigned a difficult case. Meanwhile, Alex faces the consequences of his vicious attack on DeLuca, Owen and Amelia's marriage implodes and a hospital-wide mutiny erupts when Bailey demotes Webber. Finally, Arizona may have found love again - but is she sleeping with the enemy?

*On October 10, 2016, it was announced that Tessa Ferrer would be reprising her role as Dr. Leah Murphy in a recurring role in this season.https://deadline.com/2016/10/greys-anatomy-tessa-ferrer-reprise-role-1201834161/
*Caterina Scorsone was pregnant with her second child during the start of filming the season. Her pregnancy was not written into the show.https://x.com/caterinatweets/status/796127273875189760
*Camilla Luddington was pregnant with her first child during the filming of this season. It is also not written into the show. She gave birth during production of the last few episodes of the season, resulting in a multi-episode absence of Jo Wilson.https://people.com/parents/camilla-luddington-matthew-alan-welcome-daughter-hayden/
*Ellen Pompeo welcomed a third child into her family whilst filming this season, resulting in noticeably less screen time in the episodes mid-season. It also led to her making two voice only appearances, as well as her first episode ever with no appearance at all.https://www.eonline.com/news/818613/ellen-pompeo-and-chris-ivery-welcome-baby-no-3
*For production reasons, presumably including three actresses with a baby on the way, it was decided at the beginning of the season that there would be four stand-alone episodes, focusing on only a couple of characters per episode. They were all filmed around the same time in late 2016, but spread throughout the season:
**The Room Where It Happens aired on November 10, 2016 and only includes Meredith Grey, Stephanie Edwards, Owen Hunt, and Richard Webber.
**You Can Look (But You'd Better Not Touch) aired on January 26, 2017 and only includes Arizona Robbins, Miranda Bailey, and Jo Wilson (with a voice over narrated by Meredith Grey).
**Who Is He (And What Is He To You)? aired on March 16, 2017 and only includes Jackson Avery and April Kepner.
**In the Air Tonight aired on April 13, 2017 and only includes Nathan Riggs and Meredith Grey, making her the only character to appear on screen in more than one of the stand-alone episodes.
*The season introduces a remarkable amount of relatives of main characters on screen: Richard's mother, Maggie's mother and father, Jackson's father, and Owen's sister.
*You Can Look (But You'd Better Not Touch) is the first episode where Meredith doesn't appear on-screen. However, she does provide the voiceover. This happens again in It Only Gets Much Worse. In Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?, Meredith doesn't appear, nor does she narrate the voice over, making it the first episode ever not to feature Meredith in any way.
*This is the first season of the series where there isn't at least one main character to appear in every episode.
*It's the first season since her birth not to feature Sofia Robbin Sloan Torres.
*Meredith Grey has narrated the voiceovers except for two.
**The voiceover for You Haven't Done Nothin' was shared with Amelia Shepherd and Maggie Pierce.
**The voiceover for None of Your Business was narrated by Jo Wilson.
**The voiceover for Who Is He (And What Is He To You)? was narrated by Jackson Avery.
*Filming for this season started on August 1, 2016 and wrapped early in April 2017.
*For this season, advertisers had to pay $193,210 to air a 30-second ad during the commercials during episodes, up 23% from the cost for season 12.https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/07/24/10-tv-shows-that-cost-advertisers-the-most-money-i.aspx
