Station 19, a procedural drama about firefighters in Seattle, began as a spinoff of Grey's Anatomy, though the show built its own audience over its seven seasons. Like its parent show, Station 19 was known for big emergencies and big emotions. The team of firefighters that served Station 19 came to the aid of Seattle citizens with grace and authenticity, often providing as much emotional support as they did physical support.

Though Station 19 had multiple captains over the years, they were primarily led by Andrea "Andy" Herrera (Jaina Lee Ortiz), who finally officially became captain in Season 7. By her side were firefighters like Maya Bishop (Danielle Savre), who was a former Olympic athlete, Victoria Hughes (Barrett Doss), who was Station 19's most compassionate team member, and Robert Sullivan (Boris Kodjoe), a former Marine whom Andy was married to for a while. Over the show's seven seasons, the characters experienced a lot of life,...

If you are going to be a show about firefighters produced by the Shondaland banner, then you better be hot. Station 19 has delivered excellent drama, paid tribute to first responders, and given fans some extremely sexy scenes worthy of its production home. When TV Insider asked the cast of the ABC drama what their steamiest moment of the entire show was at the series wrap party, many of them said that the iconic Season 6 Maya (Danielle Savre) and Carina (Stefania Spampinato) shower scene or Travis’ (Jay Hayden) funeral hook up with Emmett (Lachlan Buchanan) in the Season 7 premiere took the cake. However, members of the Station 19 crew teased that fans haven’t actually seen the steamiest moment of the show yet. “We have one in Episode 7 coming up actually at the end of the episode, watch out for it. There is some steamy stuff happening,” co-showrunner Zoanne Clack told TV Insider.

Note: This story contains spoilers from the “Station 19” Season 7 premiere.

The seventh and final season premiere of “Station 19” revealed the fate of beloved firefighter Jack Gibson after he collapsed during the tragic accident at the firefighter’s ball in the previous finale. After performing emergency surgery and saving his life, Dr. Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) broke the news to newly-promoted captain Andy Herrera (Jaina Lee Ortiz) that her friend and colleague sustained a life-altering brain injury that will bench him from field work permanently.

The episode, titled “This Woman’s Work,” ended with Jack waking up after surgery and congratulating Andy on her promotion — and asking when he would be back on duty.

New “Station 19” showrunners Peter Paige and Zoanne Clack — taking over after Krista Vernoff’s exit last season — teased that the twist doesn’t mean Jack (Grey Damon) will exit the series, but his journey...

Spoiler Alert: The following reveals major plot points from the Station 19 Season 7 premiere.

Station 19 returned tonight, airing the Season 7 premiere titled “This Woman’s Work,” and as everyone knows, this will be the final season of the firefighter drama created by Stacy McKee.

As sad as that is, let’s look at the positives, shall we? There are nine episodes left after the premiere, and there’s a whole journey ahead of us — and it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Speaking of bumpy, Jack (Grey Damon) is in a really bad way as the episode opens with him in surgery. Andie (Jaine Lee Ortiz) — on her first official day as Captain — of course is there with him when Grey Sloane’s Amelia Shepard (Caterina Scorsone) steps out to share an update, and the news is good overall. Amelia revealed that they had to remove a piece of...

Wellmania will not be returning for a second season. Netflix has cancelled the Australian comedy-drama series, according to the star of the series, Celeste Barber. She revealed the news in a video shared on her Instagram account.

Also starring JJ Fong, Johnny Carr, Lachlan Buchanan, Remy Hii, Genevieve Mooy, and Alexander Hodge, the series is based on the Wellmania: Misadventures in the Search for Wellness book. Bridgit Delaney wrote the book and co-created the series with Benjamin Law. The series tells the story of Liv (Barber) as she abandons her "live fast, die young" philosophy following a major health scare and the cancellation of a dream job in the United States.

Wellmania, the Australian dramedy, has been cancelled by Netflix despite a positive reception from viewers. Celeste Barber, the executive producer and star, expresses disappointment and frustration with the decision, attributing it to "numbers." While acknowledging the current global situation, Barber urges viewers to continue showing support and suggests watching other shows or movies outside of Netflix.

Wellmania executive producer and star Celeste Barber confirms the show's cancellation, taking a swipe at Netflix in a candid social media video. The Australian dramedy, which was co-created by Brigid Delaney and Benjamin Law and based on Delaney's book of the same name, debuted earlier this year. It consisted of eight episodes, focusing on Barber's character as she attempted to reclaim her well-being.

In an Instagram video, Barber confirmed the cancellation of the dramedy. Check out her video below:

Netflix will not be making a return trip to Wellmania. The series has been cancelled after one season, star and executive producer Celeste Barber has revealed in an emotional Instagram video.

“I just wanted to check in and give you a little update to let you know that Wellmania will not be renewed for another season,” Barber’s message begins. “I understand that in the grand scheme of things, with what is going on in the world at the moment, who f–king cares? But a lot of you do care. A lot of you are still asking me about it.

Netflix’s Wellmania is leaving the gym for the final time, its star Celeste Barber has said — and she isn’t happy about it.

Barber posted an update on Instagram revealing that she has been informed the show will not be returning for a second season. The first debuted in late March.

“Netflix said it’s something about numbers. Sure. I thought it smashed it but I don’t understand how it works,” she said.

“Thank you for the love and support around the show. It was so fun, we had such an excellent time and the way it was received was so overwhelming. I’m bummed that I can no longer explore that excellent character of Liv Healy, and I know a lot of you saw yourselves in that character and wanted to see more, but this industry is kinda bullshit.”

Earlier in the video, Barber acknowledged that “in...

The Australian Netflix original series Wellmania delighted viewers during its first season, and season 2 of the irreverent dramedy is now highly anticipated. The show follows 30-something food writer Liv (Celeste Barber), who suffers a major crisis when she's denied a green card to reenter the U.S. because of her unhealthy life choices. Based on the book Wellmania: Misadventures in the Search for Wellness by series co-creator Brigid Delaney, the show debuted on Netflix in March 2023 and immediately made a splash with its deft mix of humor and heart. Something of a coming-of-middle-age story, Wellmania not only explores its fascinating characters but also skewers modern society's obsession with "wellness."

Met with overwhelmingly positive reviews (via Rotten Tomatoes), Wellmania also climbed the Netflix streaming charts despite seemingly coming out of nowhere. What made the show so appealing was its split focus on Liv's outer and inner journey, and Barber's dynamic performance carried the first season.

The Netflix series Wellmania mainly revolves around its lead character as she makes major changes in her life, but it also features a memorable supporting cast for her to interact with during the process. Created by journalist Benjamin Law and Brigid Delaney based on the latter's memoir, Wellmania: Misadventures in the Search for Wellness, the Australian Netflix TV show follows a New York-based food writer whose sudden health scare causes her to resettle back in Sydney and try out various methods to improving the way she lives her life.

As with any journey, the main character's wellness quest involves a support system of helpers and guides as well as an array of brief encounters along the way. The secondary players of Wellmania include the usual for this sort of show — the protagonist's family members, best friends, and work colleagues, plus a love interest — while another level of regular characters includes doctors,...

This weekend, Netflix is adding an Australian comedy-drama TV series, a comedy series, and the sequel to one of the streaming giant’s most successful movies. Last weekend, Netflix welcomed the romantic drama Carol, season 1 of the German crime drama series Close to Home: Murder in the Coalfield, the horror movie I See You, the Japanese movie High & Low: The Worst Cross, and the Filipino comedy Partners in Crime, as well as the documentary miniseries Waco: American Apocalypse, the action thriller TV series The Night Agent, and season 4 of the reality TV series Love is Blind.

This weekend, and as it does on the first days of every month, Netflix will add a variety of licensed content, most notably the rom-com drama Diary of a Mad Black Woman, seasons 4 and 5 of Nickelodeon’s Henry Danger, seasons 3 to 5 of iCarly, season 1 of House of Anubis, season 2 of Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles,...

Wellmania is a series created by Benjamin Law, starring Celeste Barber. It is based on a novel by Brigid Delaney.

Wellmania is a fun Australian comedy about health based on the novel by Brigid Delaney in which health is the most important thing, but seen through the eyes of a girl who has not thought about her health once in her life and who, upon discovering this new world, is like some of us when we see a bicycle and ask ourselves: and what’s this supposed to do?

Wellmania About the Series

A nice comedy in the Australian style, starring a great Celeste Barber who is given one of those “roles of her life” and who knows how to take advantage of it with wit and style.

As for the series: it has the restrained wit of intelligent humor, very literary, the smooth pace of a novel, and well-profiled characters that,...

Ok, there is such a thing as too much trauma.

It's customary for series, especially Shondaland ones, to treat trauma and drama as if they're mutually exclusive, but they are not.

And when you get final moments like that of Station 19 Season 5 Episode 14, your heart sinks to the pit of your stomach for a plethora of reasons, and it makes you wonder how much trauma can one character endure and why that is the primary source of entertainment?

But first, we'll get into some of the other messiness of the hour.

It's becoming a bit of a pattern where the installment was light on firefighting, outside of that one call with the woman and her kids, and heavy on personal arcs and intercharacter drama and conflict.

After an endless stream of back and forth, so much that it made what was once an endearing couple insufferable and a lovable character positively loathsome,...

Spoiler Alert: This story contains plot details of ABC’s Station 19 winter finale.

After a tumultuous start to Season 5 of ABC’s Station 19, things begin to settle a little bit for most of the characters following Dean Miller’s (Okieriete Onaodowan) tragic and untimely death — even if only for the moment.

Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz) and Sullivan (Boris Kodjoe) finally are speaking to each other, and the conversations either will push them closer to signing their divorce papers — currently sitting in Andy’s freezer — and/or for a channel of communication to open that can bring some healing for the pair no matter the end.

Andy’s been doing the inner work to figure out why she’s made so many bad decisions in her life, and it’s her honesty about that that encourages Sullivan to dig deep into his past and how it affects his present.

It’s a bittersweet Christmas for Station 19, the first since their firehouse brother Dean Miller (Okieriete Onaodowan) died in a gas line explosion. The episode’s title, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” will mean something different to each character—all at a crossroads, teases executive producer Kiley Donovan. Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz) does “some soul searching” about her history with her mother and her future with estranged husband Sullivan (Boris Kodjoe). “We’ll reach a boiling point,” Donovan reveals. Vic (Barrett Doss) and her boyfriend Theo (Carlos Miranda) unpack the fact that Dean was in love with Vic. Maya (Danielle Savre) and Carina (Stefania Spampinato) share their excitement about adding a baby to their marriage, while Travis (Jay Hayden) isn’t quite sure how to feel about his boyfriend Emmett’s (Lachlan Buchanan) “grand gesture” gift. Ben (Jason George) bears the heaviest weight, having promised Dean that he...

Ten months have elapsed since Station 19 captain Maya Bishop (Danielle Savre) was publicly fired during her wedding to ob-gyn Carina DeLuca (Stefania Spampinato). In addition to that professional drama, the event stirred up much romantic drama. Station 19 executive producer Kiley Donovan—who notes that there have been “big shake-ups at 19, and the fire family is not quite intact”—reveals which love matches still sizzle and which flamed out. Maya and Carina Despite Maya’s shift in career status—she’s still part of the Seattle Fd, but where?—in Season 5, “their marriage is solid, an A+,” says Donovan. Andy and Sullivan The firefighters’ tempestuous union shattered when Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz) blamed her hubby (Boris Kodjoe) for betraying Maya in order to promote himself as new captain. A reconciliation looks doubtful. Travis and Emmett The former lovers (Jay Hayden and Lachlan Buchanan) smooched at the nuptials. Now their relationship has been rekindled,...

Dynasty returned on Friday with the first of what should have been last season’s closing episodes — which feels appropriate, as it set the stage for some finale-level drama.

Let’s begin with the four words on every fan’s mind: Who’s in the casket? Friday’s premiere began with a six-month flash forward, during which Fallon was shown paying her respects at someone’s funeral.

Exclusive: Exactly two years after Khalilah Joi guest starred in a powerful episode of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, she is returning to the Grey’s universe with a recurring role on spinoff Station 19.

On the firefighter drama, Joi will play a new character, Condola Vargas, an accomplished litigator who went to law school with Dean’s (Okieriete Onaodowan) sister, and with whom Dean has a romantic past. She’s whip-smart and effortlessly chic – owning every room she is in.

Condola will be helping Dean with his lawsuit against the police. At the end of last week’s episode, Dean revealed that he planned to sue the cops after he was tackled to the ground and arrested while he and his teammates were assisting a distraught mom looking for her kidnapped teenage daughter.

“This is a major plot line going forward through our whole season,” Grey’s Anatomy and Station 19...

As if Station 19 wasn't going to let Sullivan keep fighting fires.  Tonight's episode revealed the fate of the former battalion chief (Boris Kodjoe), who was suspended when he turned himself in for stealing narcotics from the Prt truck. While the rest of the team was battling an electrical fire at an apartment building (which was the home of several incredible drag queens), a hearing was being held at the fire station to determine whether Sullivan could keep his career.  It was a rough one. Emmett (Lachlan Buchanan) tried to be complimentary, but it's hard to make "he subtly threatened me to stay quiet" sound good. Ben (Jason George) had to face the fact that he waited too long...

Spoiler Alert: The report includes details about the Season 3 finale of Station 19.

After all the drama encountered this season, the firefighters of Station 19 are letting loose. ABC’s Season 3 finale, titled “Louder Than a Bomb,” kicks off with the crew dancing and drinking the night away. Everyone is having a good time — except Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz), who’s still trying to put the pieces of her past together while dealing husband’s recent suspension after he confessed to using fentanyl. More on these later.

The next day, the hungover crew is summoned to handle a five-alarm fire at Pac North hospital. At the scene, Maya’s (Danielle Savre) dad shows up to cheer her on at work, which turns out to be a disaster.

While evacuating the remaining civilians in the building, Ben (Jason George) and Travis (Jay Hayden) encounter a 250-pound man with a bad back...

Dynasty paid homage to The Hangover on Friday, sending the show’s wildest party animals (and Cristal!) to Vegas for a bachelorette party that no one will be forgetting anytime soon.

TVLine spoke with showrunner Josh Reims about how the events of this episode will affect Dynasty‘s fourth season, but first, here’s a quick recap of what went down in the finale: After a night of debauchery, Fallon & Co. were forced to retrace their steps, leading them to discover that Sam — who was essentially roofied, thanks to an overpriced hipster mixologist — got married (!) to a stripper (!!) named “Scorpio” (!!!). Fortunately,...

Grey's Anatomy may have wrapped up its sixteenth season early, but spin-off series Station 19 is still chugging along.

The two shows, however, share a universe, meaning that Grey's Anatomy characters work with people from Station 19, and vice-versa.

ABC has dropped a new trailer for Station 19 Season 3 Episode 15, and it shows an armed woman causing trouble after an incident.

In a twist of fate, Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) is in the ambulance trying to operate on a patient, and Ben (Jason George) is also present.

As the clip plays out, gunshots ring out at the conclusion, while Bailey is seen in Grey Sloan Memorial realizing that something is amiss.

Perhaps it's because the ambulance doesn't show up when it should.

If you watch Grey's Anatomy online, you know Bailey has suffered a lot of heartache of late, so killing off her husband would be cruel.

Heck, even killing Jackson would be cruel.

Grey's Anatomy may be over for the season, but some of its most beloved characters are headed to Station 19 for its own season finale.

ABC announced today that Ellen Pompeo, Caterina Scorsone, Kim Raver, and Stefania Spanmpinato will appear on Station 19 Season 3 Episode 16 -- titled "Ticking Like a Bomb."

"Andy becomes painfully suspicious of the circumstances surrounding her mother’s death and goes to her aunt looking for answers," reads the official logline.

"Meanwhile, the members of the crew work to evacuate a doctor from Pac-North hospital and find themselves in a life-threatening situation; and Sullivan undergoes surgery for his chronic leg pain."

There's a good chance the reason for the Grey's cast members being a part of the episode is in the aftermath of the drama at Pac-North, which served as the hospital several Grey Sloan alum worked at early on Grey's Anatomy Season 16.

If you watch Grey's Anatomy online,...

Station 19 will be ringing its fire bell a little later in the night after ABC moved the firefighter drama into Grey’s Anatomy’s slot.

Starting Thursday, April 16, Station 19 will air in the 9 pm slot. This comes after production on season 16 of Grey’s Anatomy was cut short due to the Covid-19 crisis. The Ellen Pompeo-fronted drama will wrap its season with Episode 21, airing tonight April 9.
