Even Grey\u2019s Anatomy fans aren\u2019t looking forward to another season of the TV show. The ABC series, which premiered in 2005, is the longest-running medical drama on television, recently celebrating 21 years on air.<\/p>\n

But according to fans of the show, the Shonda Rhimes series should\u2019ve ended years ago. When the official Instagram page for Grey\u2019s Anatomy posted a video skit on March 30 announcing the news for season 23, the comments section flooded with fans saying the show needs to be axed, once and for all.<\/p>\n

\u201cY\u2019all need to stop\u2026please,\u201d one commenter wrote on the Instagram post, garnering over 13 thousand likes.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Webber trying to retire but y\u2019all won\u2019t let him,\u201d another chimed in, acquiring 36 thousand likes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was a kid when this show started and now I’ve got two of my own,\u201d another wrote, adding, \u201cPlease stop guys. Let Dr. Webber retire for god’s sake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other fans took to the \/GreysAnatomy subreddit<\/a> to discuss their frustration with the medical drama\u2019s continuation after 21 years on the ABC network. When a Reddit user posted a Deadline<\/a> article from March 30, which announced a season 23 of Grey\u2019s Anatomy, many commenters expressed annoyance rather than excitement.<\/p>\n

\u201cEllen barely wants to be there. This horse died years ago. Let it rest in peace,\u201d a commenter wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this point this is a threat,\u201d joked another.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease\u2026. god put it out of its misery,\u201d someone added.<\/p>\n

Despite the predominantly negative reaction from fans over the season 23 renewal announcement, Grey\u2019s Anatomy continues to remain one of the most successful shows on TV. In fact, it is often ranked as the number 1 most streamed show on Hulu (per Collider<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Be sure to tune in for brand new episodes of Grey\u2019s Anatomy, airing Thursday at 10 pm ET.<\/p>\n
