Why Isn't There a New Episode of 'Grey's Anatomy' on Tonight? 10/19/17

Why isn't there a new episode of Grey's Anatomy on tonight, October 19, 2017? The next episode airs next week on October 26. Why did it skip this week?


Last week was episode 297, called "Danger Zone." In it, Amelia had her brain tumor removed, but her recovery left with her issues remembering things she once knew, including Derek being dead and her ability to speak French. Also in the episode, Richard and Catherine host a family dinner with Maggie and Avery but drama ensues when Catherine informs Avery that he has inherited a quarter billion dollars following Harper’s death. Bailey and Richard also host interviews as they search for prospective new interns, but they fail to find a viable candidate to take on. Meredith and Nathan also team up and research how to bring Megan’s adopted son to the United States. Amelia and Owen also have to deal with information that their marriage is based on a lie. Arizona learns that Sofia wants to leave and go back home, while Jo admits that she hates how much control her ex-husband still has over her life.

Episode 298 comes out on October 26, leaving fans two weeks to digest all the drama.

But what's the reason that a new episode of the 14th season of the hit ABC medical drama isn't airing tonight?

Tonight at 8 p.m. EDT, instead of a new Grey's, ABC will be airing two Halloween specials in its place to celebrate this spooky season.

The first one will be It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. The 1966 animated classic features Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and rest of the cast of colorful characters wishing for a visit from the Great Pumpkin. The Great Pumpkin is a character invented by Peanuts creator, Charles M. Schulz, and is similar to Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny.

At 8:30, ABC will continue its kid-oriented Halloween content with Toy Story OF TERROR!, featuring the cast of the hit Pixar franchise, Toy Story.

Grey's will be back next week at its usual time with "Come On Down to My Boat, Baby." According to SpoilerTV, the episode is aptly named as it contains a sea-faring plot.

People Who Smashed Wedding Cake In Their Spouse's Face Reveal How Their Relationship Is Going Now

According to The Knot wedding resource magazine and website, smashing cake into the face of a spouse after tying the knot is a tradition tied to medieval England. To celebrate the marriage, the bride would toss a piece of piece of cake over her shoulder for good luck.

This evolved into newlyweds feeding a piece of cake to one another, then taking frosting or a small bit of cake and rubbing it gently onto each other's faces—usually the cheek or tip of the nose.

U.S. Army Vet Goes Viral With Blistering Speech Ripping Trump For Deploying Troops To L.A.

A U.S. Army veteran went viral after she spoke out to encourage other current and former military members to publicly condemn President Donald Trump for using them as "pawns" to suit his own ends after he deployed the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles amid ongoing protests against his administration's immigration raids.

Trump has activated over 4,000 National Guard members and 700 Marines, despite opposition from city and state leaders. He has painted a bleak picture of Los Angeles—claims that Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom say are wildly exaggerated.

She and her older sister, Malia, now 26, spent their formative years in the presidential residence, growing up there throughout their father’s two terms, until the family departed in 2017.

Trump Dragged After Hilariously Flubbing Insult About Biden's Mental Acuity

The term malaphor means when two or more colloquial phrases or idioms get confused and combined to create something nonsensical. According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), malaphors are a common symptom of frontotemporal dementia or other cognitive impairments.

So when a person seeks to accuse someone of being unintelligent, their use of malaphors is ironic and possibly very telling—narcissists will always accuse others of their own faults and failures.
