Grey’s Anatomy is moving timeslots for its midseason premiere this winter. The long-running medical drama will shift from an 8 p.m. air time to 9 p.m. reports showrunner Krista Vernoff in a new interview with Deadline.
By moving the show to a later timeslot, the showrunner promises fans that the series will become sexy once again.
“There are different rules for a 9 PM show than there are for an 8 PM show, and we hope to take advantage of those rules. Grey’s was definitely allowed to be a sexier show when it was on at 9 o’clock,” said Vernoff.
The Grey’s Anatomy showrunner is keeping tight-lipped about which couples or characters on the show will be involved in the steamy new scenes. There were a few shake-ups during the fall finale that leave the answers to that question up in the air.
