"Dealing with the exit of two longtime cast members and the addition of two new ones, and having dealt with the pandemic and its effect on our hospital, we look at season 7 thematically as a new beginning," said executive producer and co-showrunner Diane Frolov ahead of tonight's premiere. She added: "We had to make sure that their arcs last season set them both up for surprising but understandable departures from the show. We also had to set up that the characters they were closest to -- Will, Crockett and Ethan -- were emotionally poised to rebuild their lives after Natalie and April had left."
