Every episode of the action drama Station 19 has been added to Amazon Prime Video for streaming.

Set in the titular nineteenth station of Seattle Fire Department, the show follows a group of heroic firefighters as they risk their lives and hearts while on and off the job.

It was created by Shondaland mastermind Shonda Rhimes, who was also responsible for hit shows Grey’s Anatomy and Bridgerton.

A number of the show’s characters were initially introduced during a 2018 crossover episode of Grey’s Anatomy, which served as its backdoor pilot.

After airing its first proper episode that same year, it ran for seven seasons before wrapping up in May 2024.

As of July 28, the show has been added to Amazon Prime in the UK, where viewers can discover the adventures of Station 19 for themselves.

Loyal viewers have continued to heap praise upon Station 19 since the show ended, contributing to its 93% positive audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Critics were largely positive in their reaction to Season One, with The LA Times describing it as “a turbocharged melodrama in which twists and surprises transpire with comforting predictability.”

Meanwhile, Common Sense Media called it “soapy, sexy Grey’s-Anatomy-in-a-firehouse drama.”

This formula obviously connected with viewers, who have enjoyed its combination of high-octane firehouse action and soapy storytelling.

Google Reviews user Ειρηνη Μπατρη described it as a ‘blazing masterpiece,’ writing how it “keeps the flames of excitement burning from the very first episode to the last.”

Meanwhile, Kye May praised its handling of LGBTQ+ issues and representation, describing it as “more than just a TV show; it is a platform that showcases amazing LGBTQ+ storylines, providing representation that is essential for many viewers.

“I am ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED with this show! I’ve been into since day one, episode one!” exclaimed Nicole Findlay.

The show’s cast is led by Jaina Lee Ortiz as station lieutenant Andrea ‘Andy’ Herrera, who rises through the ranks to become Captain and then fire chief as the series progresses.

Other stars include Jason George as Dr. Ben Warren, Grey Damon as Jack Gibson, and Barrett Doss as Victoria Hughes.

As a Grey’s Anatomy spin-off, the show featured several crossover events over the years, from 2018’s backdoor pilot to the Fall City Wildfire of 2024.

This comes weeks after the streaming service added the ‘sinister’ crime thriller Ballard to its catalogue.

Like Station 19, Ballard is a spin-off of a popular USA procedural drama – this one being the gritty crime thriller Bosch.

Ballard stars Maggie Q as disgraced LAPD detective Renée Ballard, who leads a team of misfit police officers in their attempt to bring down a well-connected crime syndicate.

Station 19 is streaming now on Amazon Prime in the UK.
