‘Grey’s Anatomy’ returns tonight with mid-season premiere: How to watch, where to stream free

The mid-season premiere episode of Grey’s Anatomy airs on ABC Thursday, March 6 at 10/9c.

On this week’s episode, the medical personnel at Grey Sloan deal with the aftermath and chaos of the convenience store shooting. Meanwhile, Ben hits a wall with his new emergency preparedness plan, and Amelia and Winston disagree over a surgical plan for a young patient.

This episode marks the halfway point of season 21 of the hit medical drama which aired its first season back in 2005. Created by Golden Globe winning producer Shonda Rhimes, Grey’s Anatomy follows the personal and professional lives of Seattle-based doctors.

Where can I watch season 21 of Grey’s Anatomy?

Those interested in catching the midseason premiere can do so even without cable through Fubo or DirecTV Stream. Both streaming services offer free trials for new subscribers to enjoy before deciding whether to commit to a paid subscription.

What is Fubo?

Fubo is much like any other streaming service, but instead of simply offering on-demand streaming, it offers a slew of live TV channels such as ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, TLC, MTV and more.

Fubo considers itself a sports-focused live streaming service but also offers over 100 live TV channels through its basic package at just $84.99 a month following its 7-day free trial.

Users can stream a variety of shows and movies on-demand and even have the option to record favorite shows and movies through Fubo’s unlimited DVR feature.

What is DirecTV Stream?

DirecTV Stream mirrors Fubo by offering many of the same channels and features. The base package, otherwise known as the Entertainment package, includes over 90 channels available for streaming for just $86.99 a month after its 5-day free trial.

DirecTV Stream also has the Choice package, which is normally $114.99 a month, but through an ongoing promotion, pay just $89.99 a month for your first three months to access over 125 channels.

The service’s Ultimate package, normally $129.99 a month, is part of the current DirecTV Stream’s promotion, too. Pay $104.99 a month for your first three months and enjoy over 160 channels.
