A "Grey's Anatomy" fan recently came up with an interesting theory suggesting that Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital existed in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After all, so many things have happened to the hospital: deaths and fires alike, but majority of the people and the hospital itself have survived.
Reddit user ogwalt (via Glamour) believes that it is no coincidence that this happened in the hit ABC series. And the only thing that makes sense is that the hospital is set in the supernatural universe. As the fan puts it, the characters featured in "Grey's Anatomy" are larger-than-life just like the superheroes featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Additionally, almost every day, the doctors at the hospital have to fight the odds with regards to their patients. This is very similar to what the superheroes have to do on a daily basis to save the world. Not to mention, the technologies featured in the show are so advanced just like the ones in the other world.
Meanwhile, the Reddit user also cited one specific episode where Dr. Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh) traveled to Zurich to study new holographic software that has the ability to track the human heart in real time. The software has similarities to Tony Stark's program that was used in his workshop.
Unfortunately, none of the Reddit user's claims have been justified or confirmed by the creators of "Grey's Anatomy," even though ABC has been acquired by Walt Disney Company, the same company that has the rights to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In other news, "Grey's Anatomy" Season 13 will return with episode 10 this month. The episode will reveal the fate of Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) who decided to leave the hospital and his friends before his trial could take place. Viewers will also continue to see Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Nathan (Martin Henderson) flirting with each other. Arizona's (Jessica Capshaw) relationship with Eliza will also flourish, while Jo's (Camilla Luddington) friendship with Andrew (Giacomo Gianniotti) will be put to the test, according to TV Line.
"Grey's Anatomy" Season 13, episode 10 will air on ABC on Jan. 19 at 8 p.m. EST.
