WARNING: This article contains spoilers and predictions for Grey's Anatomy Season 16. Read at your own risk.
In a few hours, Grey's Anatomy Season 16 will finally hit the small screens. With the previously hinted "time-jump" that will happen, it seems that the new season will start weeks after the events of the last season's finale.
Fans have witnessed how Meredith chose to own her blame for her actions. After DeLuca took the fall for her, she couldn't live with it. As a result, she was fired, along with the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital's best surgeons.
Nothing much has been revealed about the aftermath. But, Grey's Anatomy Season 16 will be a season of reckoning.
Cosmopolitan's recent scoop about the new season hinted that everyone is "doomed." As to how it will all play out, fans will need to see the show for themselves.
The previous season is all about love and romance. With the underlying actions of the characters, it looks like they will all find time to redeem their selves in the new season. And needless to say, Season 16 will be more dramatic than its predecessors.
Reports are stating that Meredith will be behind bars. It is logical given the situation she ended up with last season. However, this may not be for long based on the new details that came into the light recently.
As seen in the teaser photos, she is doing "community service." How she ended up with this sentence is yet to be revealed. Even so, it gives the notion that she will be back soon in the operating room, doing what she loves the most: saving people in need.
Aside from Meredith's consequences and days of reckoning, Grey's Anatomy shifts the focus to the show's other characters. While they may not be as "major" as Meredith, Nico and Levi have played integral parts in the show's evolution.
The seemingly romantic relationship between the two has bloomed recently. Given the dynamic of the previous season, it made sense.
However, the two characters are also hinted to get involved with Grey's Anatomy Season 16's theme of consequences. Per the publication, bumps, and challenges will arise between the fan-favorite characters as they explore their new relationship.
The first episode carries the title "Nothing To Cling To," which sounds devastating already. This only emphasizes how the show has already shifted its tone and theme from a love-filled season to a reckoning-filled installment.
Grey's Anatomy Season 16 premieres on September 26, on ABC.
