Production[edit]
Development[edit]
On April 20, 2023, ABC renewed the series for a seventh season. This is the only season under showrunners Zoanne Clack and Peter Paige after the departure of the previous showrunner Krista Vernoff at the end of the previous season.[1] Clack joined Station 19 the previous season as an executive producer and head writer after working on parent series Grey's Anatomy. Paige began directing episodes starting with the fourth season and became an executive producer the previous season.[13]
Paige stated that production would not commence until the conclusion of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[14] Clack stated that the number of episodes produced for the season would be reduced because of the strike.[15] Following the end of the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes, it was expected that the season would consist of ten episodes.[16] Without Vernoff, who also vacated her showrunner role on Grey's Anatomy, the storylines with the parent show were expected to separate, and only one crossover is planned for the season.[17] Production began by December 2023.[18] The same month, ABC announced that the seventh season of Station 19 will be its final season.[19]
Casting[edit]
The entire main cast from the previous season returned except for Pat Healy.[14] Drag queen Symone was cast as Mary Mint, who is in a parade celebrating same-sex marriage in Washington.[20]
Release[edit]
When the 2023–24 United States network television schedule was announced, Station 19 was held for midseason due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[21] The season premiered on March 14, 2024 in the Thursday at 10 PM timeslot following parent series, Grey's Anatomy.[22]

Awards and nominations[edit]
Jay Hayden was named Performer of the Week by TVLine for his performance in "True Colors."[23] Jaina Lee Ortiz received an honorable mention for TVLine's Performer of the Week for her performance in "Trouble Man."[24]
