Medical drama Grey's Anatomy season 16 will cut short its edition and the finale episode will be aired earlier than usual due to coronavirus pandemic, as per a report.
The big schedule shift comes as a result of ABC's decision not to restart production of the show, which closed earlier this month in response to the coronavirus crisis.
Twenty-one of the 25 episodes planned for the season were finished before production stopped earlier this month.
Not to affect other ABCs series
As per a report of Variety, ABC announced that Grey's Anatomy will have an earlier finale, which will end on April 9, its 21st episode.
The early schedule of Greys Anatomy due to coronavirus will not affect ABC's other series like 'Station 19' and 'How to Get Away With Murder' that have already finished and will air their scheduled finale as planned.
