"If we can get a few more risqué subject matters or steamy scenes, we'll do it. But I won't do it just for the sake of a time slot. We're Grey's Anatomy, people will find us wherever we are."
She also addressed the future of Meredith in the show at the time, adding: "She's always present in the show, even if she's not in it in it. She has voiceover still, and we talk about her character all the time.
"She and I have a great relationship and work really well with one another."
Grey's Anatomy season 21 will air premiere on Thursday, September 26 at 10pm ET on ABC in the US. Previous seasons are streaming on Disney+ in the UK.
