It was a good night for the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday Night Football, but it was a really big night for Grey’s Anatomy fans as Patrick Dempsey’s McDreamy returned after a five-year absence.
Last night the Shonda Rhimes medical drama dedicated its two-hour Season 17 season premiere to frontline healthcare workers fighting the coronavirus pandemic. A collapse by Ellen Pompeo’s Meredith Grey unveiled a classic network dream sequence that saw her deceased love appear on a sun-drenched beach.
However, as charged as the Grey’s season opener was, it took a hit in the ratings.
Compared to the Season 16 premiere of September 26, 2019, last night’s episode was down 13% among adults 18-49 and 11% in viewers for a 1.3 ratings and an audience of 5.5 million. For those how track the numbers, the Season 16 debut of Grey’s didn’t shift from its fast affiliate results to the final numbers last year.
