==Notes and Trivia==
thumb
*Meg Marinis served as the showrunner for the season, taking over from Krista Vernoff, who left the show at the end of the nineteenth season.https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/greys-anatomy-renewed-season-20-abc-meg-marinis-showrunner-1235564391/
*This is the first season since season 11 not to feature Kelly McCreary as Maggie Pierce as a series regular. She did, however, make a guest appearance.
*The table read for the first episode took place on November 15, 2023.https://instagram.com/stories/camillaluddington/3236919066396225647?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Camilla Luddington Instagram Story dated November 15, 2023
*Filming for the season wrapped on April 10, 2024.https://www.instagram.com/p/C5ouSnRvhUj/
*For the first time, the season does not feature an episode that shares the same number as the season itself—a recurring theme previously seen with Episode 5 in Season 5, Episode 16 in Season 16, and so forth. This break in pattern distinguishes Season 20 as the only season without this numerical alignment
*This is the first and only season in which no series regular is absent in any episode. However, Ellen Pompeo made 5 voice only appearances.
*This season was the last to feature Midori Francis as Mika Yasuda and Jake Borelli as Levi Schmitt as series regulars.https://deadline.com/2024/05/jake-borelli-leaving-greys-anatomy-levi-schmitt-cast-episode-reductions-1235912077/https://tvline.com/casting-news/greys-anatomy-midori-francis-leaving-mika-yasuda-season-20-1235239717/
*This is the first season since his introduction in season 6 where Jesse Williams does not appear as Jackson Avery.
