Hot Series: Grey’s Anatomy is remarkably still going strong in its 13th season and celebrated its landmark 300th episode last week in a special outing that called back to the show’s past, and even had patients in the hospital that reminded everyone of past interns Izzie, George and Cristina. This show just keeps going and getting stronger, and creator Shonda Rhimes has said she could see it going for many more years still. Catch up on past episodes right here.
