Grey’s Anatomy season 22 release schedule: When is episode 11 out to watch?

Fans of Grey's Anatomy are still in limbo as they wait for new episodes to land, but things are set to be that bit more bittersweet as viewers continue to mourn the death of former star Eric Dane.

Although McSteamy made his heartbreaking exit from the series some time ago now, his presence and impact on Grey's Anatomy is what made it such a hit with fans in those early seasons.

Nevertheless, new episodes of Grey's Anatomy are still set to head our way, just a bit delayed as the Winter Olympics continue to air on ABC (where the show airs in the US), meaning that it's bumped everything in the schedules.

While some fans may have just gotten back into the swing of things after Grey's took its usual mid-season hiatus, they'll just have to wait a little while longer until the eleventh episode is on our screens as programming is set to resume on 26 February in the US.

The first instalment of the season saw Dr Jo Wilson (Camilla Luddington) face a life-threatening health crisis, following the dramatic death of Dr Monica Beltran (Natalie Morales).

With Dr Wilson left struggling with complications from her twin pregnancy at the end of the last episode, viewers are eager to see the cliffhanger resolved and see which cast members will return.

But just when will Grey's Anatomy be making its return? Read on for the full season 22 release schedule.

When is Grey’s Anatomy season 22 episode 11 coming out?

Grey's Anatomy has now gone on another brief hiatus, meaning that usual programming won't resume in the US now until Thursday 26th February.

That means that for UK viewers, we can expect Grey’s Anatomy season 22 to return with episode 11, (If You Want It) Do It Yourself, on Friday 27 February 2026 on Disney Plus, obviously following its usual pattern of being released one day after the US release on ABC and Hulu.
