With the series finale of Station 19 concluding on a hopeful note, fans are buzzing about potential spinoffs featuring beloved characters like Travis (Jay Hayden) and Vic (Barrett Doss) or Maya (Danielle Savre) and Carina (Stefania Spampinato). In the finale, Travis and Vic embarked on a new adventure in Washington, D.C., while Maya and Carina discovered they were expecting a baby, setting the stage for possible new narratives.
Spinoff Possibilities
Co-showrunners Peter Paige and Zoanne Clack have acknowledged the interest in spinoffs, revealing that they have received pitches for several concepts. Among them is the Crisis One program, which Vic will be leading in D.C., potentially connecting to the larger Shondaland universe—remember, Scandal is also set in D.C. Additionally, a Fosters-like spinoff focusing on Maya and Carina’s journey has been proposed.
Paige mentioned, “We’ve been pitched several spinoffs. Crisis One is one of them… There’s even a poster floating around the internet.” While there’s enthusiasm for these ideas, both Paige and Clack noted that the likelihood of these spinoffs materializing is small. However, they expressed gratitude for the fans’ excitement, saying it makes them feel “tingly inside.”
The Appeal of Travis & Vic or Maya & Carina
The dynamic between Travis and Vic, cemented by their unbreakable bond in the finale, makes them prime candidates for a spinoff. Their journey to D.C. could explore new challenges and relationships within the Crisis One framework.
On the other hand, Maya and Carina’s new chapter as expectant parents opens up rich storytelling opportunities. A spinoff focusing on their family life could delve into themes of love, resilience, and the challenges of parenthood, making it relatable for many viewers.
The Future of Characters
While Station 19 has ended, the fates of characters like Carina and Ben (Jason George) remain uncertain. Paige expressed hope that Grey’s Anatomy will utilize these characters, hinting at potential crossovers or appearances in the future.
Conclusion
While the possibility of spinoffs centered around Travis & Vic or Maya & Carina is currently uncertain, the interest from fans and the creative team suggests that the characters’ journeys might continue in some form. For now, fans can hold onto the hope that these beloved characters will find new stories to tell in the ever-expanding Shondaland universe.
