Station 19 just aired its Season 2 finale. Quite a few characters were involved in dramatic situations, but at least none of them are close to death. That’s a big change for a show where everyone is always risking their lives.
Is Station 19 renewed for Season 3?
The great news for viewers of the show is that ABC has already renewed Station 19. Season 3 will begin in fall 2019, picking up where some of the character arcs led in the Season 2 finale, which also included two big guest stars.
ABC made a point of making it very public knowledge on Thursday night that the show would be returning. It has also been confirmed that the stories will run more concurrently with what is taking place on Grey’s Anatomy
The following seasons for both shows will reportedly include crossovers “every week” with more of a “shared universe” between them, according to ABC Entertainment President Karey Burke.
The show departed from that quite a bit this year. While the Seattle wind storm was a big event for Station 19 and Grey’s Anatomy as a way to wrap up the fall 2018 episodes, the shows returned to ABC on different dates in the winter.
That was particularly evident in the season finales, as Grey’s Anatomy dealt with a lot of drama in Seattle, but most of the Station 19 cast was free to travel to California to help with a wildfire.
Station 19 season finale recap
The Station 19 Season 2 finale ended with Andy (played by Jaina Lee Ortiz) and Sullivan (Boris Kodjoe) nearly sleeping together, Montgomery (Jay Hayden) getting arrested, and also possibly starting up a relationship with a new guy.
A chance meeting also took place between Maya (Danielle Savre) and the girlfriend of Dean (Okieriete Onaodowan). It turned out that the ladies were ex-girlfriends. Talk about a plot twist!
All of these stories will likely get explored further when Season 3 of Station 19 returns in September or October of 2019. The exact date for that season premiere will be announced in the summer months.
Station 19 Season 2 episodes aired Thursday nights at 9/8c on ABC.
Station 19 season finale guest stars: Cast joined by Patrick Duffy and Nyle DiMarco, while Andy and Sullivan have a moment
The Station 19 cast dealt with a wildfire in California during the season finale — which included two big guest stars and two big surprises in the final moments, leaving viewers with some cliffhangers.
Season 2, Episode 17 was called “Into the Wildfire” and the narration of it hinted to viewers that it didn’t just refer to the fire itself. There were a number of issues with relationships that also surfaced.
The team from Seattle was called to assist on a wildfire in California and most of Station 19 traveled down to help in the efforts. Montgomery (played by Jay Hayden) was left behind (at first) due to the fight he had that ended the previous episodes
Andy and Sullivan (Jaina Lee Ortiz and Boris Kodjoe) also began to explore their attraction to each other.
Patrick Duffy guest stars on Station 19 cast
When the Station 19 team was asked to protect a neighborhood from the wildfire, they came across a couple that refused to leave their home. One of the characters was played by actor Patrick Duffy, who is famous for his roles on Dallas and Step By Step.
When Duffy’s character makes a mistake while clearing brush, Ben (Jason Geroge) was forced to amputate his hand. At the end of the episode, during an interview to join Medic One, Ben was chastised for doing the amputation outside of a sterile environment.
Career high! Getting to work with @therealpduffy on #Station19 season finale. Had to school the younger writers on “Bobby in the shower” Patrick Duffy himself told me they fooled the crew into thinking the shower scene was a soap commercial. #GreysAnatomy #tgit #Dallas pic.twitter.com/9h7AE1D8Va

In order to save themselves from a flash fire, Andy and Sullivan jumped into a pool. While they were submerged, a series of flashbacks were shown of the characters enjoying each other’s company throughout the season.
The story between Andy and Sullivan was addressed at the end of the episode when they began kissing and it appeared they were going to sleep together until Sullivan started experiencing pain in the leg that was injured in the season premiere. He sent her home, which Andy did not take well.
Nyle DiMarco makes appearance
Former America’s Next Top Model and Dancing with the Stars winner Nyle DiMarco also made an appearance on the episode, after posting a pic of himself on Instagram earlier in the day.
His debut saw him play deaf firefighter Dylan, who ended up getting intimate with Montgomery.
At the end of Station 19 Season 2, episode 17, Montgomery was shown trying to cheer up Vic (Barrett Doss), who is still trying to deal with the death of Ripley (Brett Tucker). A knock was heard on the door and the police were there to arrest Montgomery for the fight he had at the bar.
The Station 19 cast certainly has a lot of situations to deal with when Season 3 debuts in fall 2019. The great news is that none of the characters ended the season in peril.
