In the season 16 finale, we saw Owen’s heart broken as he learned the truth about Teddy’s affair with Tom. Grey’s Anatomy characters most likely to die in season 17 With a large ensemble cast and a history of shocking deaths, there’s no telling which Grey’s Anatomy character might have been headed for the great beyond in the season 16 finale however, we have a few ideas of who might be in danger come season 17.
As a result, Grey’s Anatomy wrapped its sixteenth season four episodes earlier than anticipated and was therefore unable to tackle the storylines planned out for the final episodes of the season.Īlthough season 16 still managed to leave viewers on the edge of their seats with its makeshift finale, leaving many storylines left unanswered, it turns out the writers had quite an explosive finale planned for season 16.Īs reported by TVLine, the season 16 finale was to feature a “cataclysmic event that would have likely claimed the life of a major character.” In other words, the unexpected early end to the season may have helped to bide some time for one character, though it seems likely death will come knocking at the character’s door come next season. Like many shows, Grey’s Anatomy was forced to wrap its current season sooner than expected due to the coronavirus pandemic which forced studios to shut down production. With news that one Grey’s Anatomy character is living on borrowed time, we can’t help but to wonder whether these five characters could be in facing an untimely death in Grey’s Anatomy season 17.
