At least someone has a chance at happiness.

Summary:

  • Grey’s Anatomy is an ABC TV show set to return for its 20th season.
  • The show will run without its titular character, Meredith Grey, constantly in the picture.
  • To make up for that, however, the writers are bringing back other fan-favorite characters, like Alex Landi’s Dr. Nico Kim.

Set to premiere in March 2024, Grey’s Anatomy’s comeback for season 20 is as much feared by the audience as it is anticipated. While the viewers have their own hopes and predictions about what the year in Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital will bring to the table, there is no certainty on whether the show will be able to upkeep the content quality.

After all, the anniversary season is going to be the first one that Grey’s Anatomy will have to spend without its main star and lucky charm, Ellen Pompeo, constantly in sight.

Although the actress keeps her place as one of the executive producers of the show, she announced her gradual move from the role of Meredith Grey, and now the audience will have to make peace with that.

While it’s hard to imagine Grey’s thriving without Meredith, people aren’t ready to give up on the show just yet. Season 19 introduced many fresh faces, whose stories deserve to be told.

On top of that, Shondaland is adamant about using everything in their power to bring the viewers’ attention back by re-introducing some familiar faces too.

Dr. Nico Kim, who we haven’t seen since season 18, is one of the people finding their way back to Grey Sloan for this year.

Will Nico and Schmitt Get Back Together?

As much as the audience appreciates all the comebacks and returns, throughout the years they have learned to believe there is a reason for every single one of them, and, many viewers believe, Nico Kim has a purpose in season 20 too.

While the actor behind the character, Alex Landi, who announced his return on Instagram with an all scrubbed-in selfie, didn’t share too many details, fans are sure he’s coming back to deal with all the unsettled business he has left with Dr. Levi Schmitt.

Back in season 18, the couple parted their ways after a devastating elevator scene, but this ending did not satisfy the audience nearly enough to stop nagging the writers to bring Nico back.

Schmico’s happy ending may be just the thing they need to add to Grey’s Anatomy season 20 to bring more eyes in.

If you are interested in finding out how many episodes of Grey’s Anatomy season 20 will feature a fan-favorite character, and what are the chances of seeing Dr. Nico Kim come back permanently, make sure to keep an eye out for all the news and behind the scenes updates. Don’t miss out on the season premiere on March 14, 2024, on ABC.
