    The midseason 2026 TV schedule is stacked — but when is your favorite show coming back?

    On ABC, Grey’s Anatomy is returning after the season 22 fall finale ended with Jo’s (Camilla Luddington) premature emergency C-section. Jo’s fate was unclear and the trailer for the rest of the season hinted at a possible loss.

    Season 22 went through major changes after the show reduced the minimum guarantees for its veteran cast members from appearances in 18 episodes per season to 14. While some of Grey’s Anatomy‘s consistent stars won’t appear in four episodes each, Caterina Scorsone departed for eight episodes.

    Meanwhile over at CBS, Yellowstone is expanding with a spinoff focused on Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes). Y: Marshals, which premieres in March, follows Kayce as he leaves “ranching life behind to join an elite unit” of the U.S. Marshals while “combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence.”
