Shonda Rhimes, the creative powerhouse behind "Grey's Anatomy," recently opened up about the show's early days, sharing a humorous anecdote that highlights just how uncertain its future seemed at the time. In an appearance on "The Jennifer Hudson Show," Rhimes joked that she initially thought she might have to sell episodes of the now-iconic medical drama "out of the back of [her] car" to keep it afloat.

During her candid interview, Rhimes reflected on the humble beginnings of "Grey's Anatomy," which is now celebrating its 20th season. She recounted how, when the show first premiered in 2005, there were no guarantees of its success.

This uncertainty led to her tongue-in-cheek remark about selling episodes from the trunk of her car.

Despite the initial doubts, "Grey's Anatomy" quickly found its footing, resonating with viewers and becoming a cultural phenomenon.
