ABC Renews STATION 19 for a Fourth Season

ABC has renewed "Station 19" for a fourth season, it was announced today by Karey Burke, president, ABC Entertainment. The series is produced by ABC Studios. ABC Studios is a part of Disney Television Studios, alongside 20th Century FOX Television and FOX 21 Television Studios.

"Krista Vernoff is a sharp, superb storyteller and we're so grateful to her - along with the talented cast and crew - for all they've done to make 'Station 19' thrive this season," said Karey Burke, president, ABC Entertainment. "This addictive, rich show is hitting series highs this year for a reason, and we can't wait to deliver more great stories to our passionate audience."

Ranking as the No. 1 program in Thursday's 8:00 p.m. hour this season in Total Viewers and Adults 18-49, ABC's "Station 19" is growing its overall audience over its prior season (+9%) to deliver its most-watched season ever. In addition, after 35 days of delayed viewing on linear and digital platforms, "Station 19" averages 13.5 million Total Viewers and a 3.71 rating in Adults 18-49 this season.

Meanwhile, Dean receives advice from Pruitt on a difficult situation, and Sullivan seeks help from Dr. Amelia Shepherd. Episodes can also be viewed the next day on demand and on Hulu.
