Grey’s Anatomy season 17 spoilers: Boss confirms Patrick Dempsey return
Unfortunately, here’s the problem: Meredith over-exerted herself. She put herself in a position that she was not ready for and because of that, she collapsed. In many ways, she’s now worse than ever after Richard decided to place her on a ventilator. This all but confirms that the beach scenes are continuing, and showrunner Krista Vernoff made that all the clearer in a new interview with Variety. To be specific, she noted that you will see Patrick Dempsey as Derek again.

This news is not too shocking, given that Dempsey himself has said that he will have more appearances on the show coming up. It sounds as though production banked a lot of footage for throughout the season over a short period of time, and there is still a chance some new visitors could be arriving at the beach, as well. Vernoff hasn’t confirmed any names, but we know that there are a lot of people eager to see someone like Mark or Lexie on the show again. Whether or not that happens, though, remains to be seen.
We know that there are a lot of Grey’s Anatomy episodes still to come, and the good news is this: When the show returns, you will likely have one story after the next with very few breaks in between.
