Our take on Grey’s new casting
This is why the show remains beloved
Although Mica is relatively smaller and newer Gray’s Anatomy character, when stacked up against the show’s long history, the series is taking steps to stage her farewell meaningfully. This is a stark contrast to other dramas, with Law & Order Come to mind, where former regulars disappear off the screen and get a few scenes of explanation about where they went. After two decades and over 400 episodes, the genre revitalizing series still rewards viewers who have invested in its heightened world. That’s part of the reason it’s still going strong.
