Sorry, “Grey’s Anatomy” fans. Anyone hoping to see what happens after Meredith jumped back into the dating game or after she discovered Teddy’s pregnancy is going to be disappointed. ABC is not airing the medical series on Thursday, Oct. 18.

Much like last year, ABC is delaying “Grey’s Anatomy” Season 15, episode 5 for some kid-friendly Halloween programming. At 8 p.m. EDT, the alphabet network will air “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.” The 1966 special features Linus (voiced by Christopher Shea) waiting for the Great Pumpkin, a mysterious figure who brings goodies to believers on Halloween. Charlie Brown (voiced by Peter Robbins) doesn’t believe in the mythical creature, but Linus is determined to see him in the flesh.

At 8:30 p.m. EDT, “Toy Story of Terror” will air. The half-hour special follows the toys at a creepy motel. Suddenly, they start to disappear. They have to figure out what’s going on before they all go missing. Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and more reprise their roles from the hit Pixar movie franchise in the animated program, which was released in 2013.

“Grey’s Anatomy” fans can still visit Seattle on Thursday night. The spinoff, “Station 19,” will air in its usual timeslot at 9 p.m. EDT following the Halloween programming on Thursday. The team will investigate a resident in an apartment building after some concerned calls.

Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and the doctors will be back on Oct. 25 with Season 15, episode 5, and she’ll confront Teddy (Kim Raver) about her pregnancy. Owen (Kevin McKidd) and Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) will have their attention elsewhere after they worry that Betty is a flight risk. Meanwhile, Jo (Camilla Luddington) will still be trying to get Bailey’s (Chandra Wilson) attention.
