As the popular TV show Station 19 came to an end after seven seasons, fans felt a mix of emotions.

The creators, Zoanne Clack and Peter Paige, spoke with People magazine to talk about the final episode and explain how they came up with its important moments.

Clack explained that they began planning the finale by thinking about the very last scene they wanted viewers to see and what they hoped the characters would achieve. Then, they figured out how to make that happen by working backwards. This way, they wanted to make sure that both the characters and the audience would feel satisfied with how the series ended. In the finale, they made a big decision to make Andy the Chief.

Clack said they had an idea where Andy’s story was going, but it was tough to make it happen smoothly. Paige added that they wanted to leave something memorable behind after the show ended.

The heart of the finale was Andy’s powerful speech, which reminded everyone of the show’s important messages. Paige stressed that even though the series ended, its impact can live on through the viewers. He encouraged fans to take the show’s lessons and apply them in their own lives and communities.

One scene in particular really touched both the actors and the audience, it was when the characters were under the table.

Clack said it was the moment when “everyone [was] falling apart,” showing just how emotional it was.

For many of the actors, it was their last scene, making it even more special. Paige remembered the mix of feelings on set as they finished filming. Jaina Lee Ortiz, who plays Andy, was the last to say goodbye, going through a change for the final shot of the series.

As the last episode of Station 19 aired, viewers got a perfect ending that captured what the show was all about. It made us think back on all the moments we loved and felt nostalgic. Even though the show is over, it left a big impression on us and the people who watched it. The characters and stories will stay with us for a long time.
