00:00 And yes, there have been some changes.
00:02 The doctors are in.
00:04 A Grey's Anatomy reunion goes down
00:07 at the 2023 Emmy Awards as Ellen Pompeo,
00:11 Katherine Heigl, Justin Chambers, James Pickens Jr.
00:15 and Chandra Wilson appear together to present.
00:18 Before handing out the award for best supporting actor
00:21 in a limited series to Blackbird's Paul Walter Hauser,
00:24 the Grey's alums acknowledge their place in TV history.
00:29 When the first episode of Grey's Anatomy aired
00:31 in March of 2005, I'm not sure if Shonda Rhimes knew
00:35 that she had created a show that would have a lasting imprint
00:38 on television and create lifelong friendships.
00:41 And yes, there have been some changes over the years,
00:45 but the one thing that has remained a constant
00:48 is the incredible fan base.
00:49 And as we start our 20th season,
00:53 we are officially the longest running
00:55 primetime medical drama in TV history.
00:59 The mini cast reunion,
01:00 which was missing some key members,
01:02 including Sandra Oh, aka Dr. Christina Yang,
01:06 was a long awaited one for fans of the medical drama.
01:10 In fact, Katherine's appearance was her first
01:12 at the Emmys in a decade.
01:14 The actress who played Izzy Stevens on Grey's
01:17 left the show in season six.
01:19 She exclusively dished to Laverne Cox
01:22 during E!'s "Live from the Red Carpet"
01:24 about reuniting with her former castmates,
01:27 and she can't quite believe how much time has passed.
01:30 Now you're here tonight as part of a Grey's Anatomy reunion.
01:35 You did this show, I think, 15 years ago.
01:38 Yeah, I left.
01:40 Left 15 years ago, yeah.
01:41 I think so.
01:42 What emotions are running through you tonight
01:45 reuniting with your old cast?
01:47 It's crazy.
01:48 It's like, in one way it feels like I just saw them all,
01:52 and in another it's like, oh, this life has passed.
01:55 Our children have all gotten older.
01:57 Some of us, like Chandra's son, Michael,
02:00 was born second season of the show
02:01 when he's now 18 years old.
02:03 It's like, it's disconcerting, but wonderful.
