Fans everywhere are outraged over ABC’s recent decision last Friday to cancel their beloved drama, Station 19. In a development from our previous story, where executive producer Shonda Rhimes (Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal) took to Instagram to pay tribute, fans are now making noise on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram alike with the hashtags #SaveStation19 and #DoNotCancelStation19. There is also a petition entitled “Save Station 19,” which has amassed 24,827 signatures, with over 5,000 people signing today and counting on change.org.

The fandom is sharing their favorite moments from the series, encouraging others to do the same, and replying with hashtags to bring awareness to not cancel the series.
One post on X reads, “I feel like it only makes sense if station 19 has 19 seasons, any other number just doesn’t feel right #DoNotCancelStation19 #SaveStation19.”
