Tonight will be the last time "Grey's Anatomy" will be available online until the fall, as the Season 16 finale airs in just a few minutes on ABC

Season 16 of Grey's Anatomy was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic Lead actress Ellen Pompeo and the cast filmed episode 21, which was supposed to be 25 episodes, so that will be the finale

The season finale, titled "Put on a Happy Face," continues the story of several doctors, including Meredith Grey (Pompeo), who team up to figure out what ails their mentor, Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr) Richard has an episode during a medical conference, but no one knows what the problem is-will it be Alzheimer's, a stroke, a tumor, or something else?

Elsewhere, Link (Chris Carmack) tries to convince Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) not to overdo it in the final stages of her pregnancy Hayes (Richard Flood) asks Meredith a surprising question, and Owen (Kevin McKidd) makes a shocking discovery

This episode was not scheduled to be the final episode of season 16, so Richard's mysterious illness will likely continue into next season Grey's Anatomy has already been renewed for Season 17

If you cut cable, you can watch the finale live on several live TV streaming services, including Hulu With Live TV, YouTube TV, and AT&T TV Now

Of these options, we recommend Hulu, which also offers original programming like "Little Fires Everywhere" and "Handmaid's Tale"; it has a one-week free trial; YouTube TV has an unlimited cloud DVR AT&T TV Now is not recommended

Canada is lucky Grey's Anatomy airs on CTV in Canada on the same days and at the same time

For British "Grey's Anatomy" fans, this is a little bad news, but not entirely terrible Season 16 airs every Wednesday at 9 pm on Sky Witness and NOW TV
