Grey’s Anatomy season 21, episode 1: Who is Stephanie Leifer, who premiere was dedicated to?
Grey’s Anatomy has officially returned for its 21st season, and it will see the return of old faces and the loss of a regular.
The latest premiere of the longest-running US medical drama was dedicated to Stephanie Leifer and, while casual fans of the long-running medical drama might not be aware of who she is, the tribute was a moving moment as Leifer was an instrumental figure in the show’s enduring success.
Leifer died of cancer in June, aged 56. She was a programming executive who oversaw Grey’s Anatomy while working at ABC – the US network on which the show airs – as well as ABC Signature, the company that produces it. She worked at ABC for 28 years up until her departure in 2022.
Grey’s Anatomy’s showrunner and executive producer Meg Marinis was asked about the dedication in an interview discussing the episode. Marinis, who started out on Grey’s Anatomy as a PA, worked with Leifer for over 15 years, and she branded her former employee “incredible”.
Speaking to Deadline, Marinis said: “Stephanie Leifer was an incredible person and devoted champion of Grey’s.
“She truly believed in us from the early years all the way through and supported our creative vision.
“I started my career as a PA, delivering Grey’s scripts to her office, and I remember her door always being open. She was so encouraging to writers and attended several Grey’s milestone events. It was a heartbreaking loss for this family.”
In 2019, Grey’s Anatomy changed US television history to become the longest-running prime-time medical drama in the US, overtaking the previous victor, ER.
ER, which starred Anthony Edwards, George Clooney and Julianne Margulies, ran for 15 seasons between 1994 and 2009. The overall record is held by BBC series Casualty, which has aired in the UK since 1986.

Greys’ Anatomy’s former lead star Ellen Pompeo made the shock decision to depart the show in 2021, stating: “I am eternally grateful and humbled by the love and support you have all shown me, Meredith Grey and the show for 19 seasons!”
Pompeo didn’t completely abandon the show, though, as she still returned for a handful of episodes in the show’s 20th season and will continue to do so this season. She was reduced from a series regular to a recurring character.
She also remains an executive producer on the series and continues to narrate the opening and closing voiceovers for each episode.

MrBeast’s game show staff call for YouTuber to be ‘blacklisted’ for ‘unprofessional’ incidents on set
The controversy surrounding MrBeast’s new game show Beast Games is contiuing, with staff who worked on the show calling for the YouTuber’s team to be “blacklisted”.
MrBeast, real name Jimmy Donaldson is the biggest YouTuber in the world but is facing increased scrutiny for the upcoming series, reportedly the largest reality show in history, which has been produced for Amazon Prime.
Earlier this month, a class action lawsuit was filed against him by contestants on the show claiming they were subjected to “chronic mistreatment” and sexual harassment.
Now a lengthy report from Las Vegas 3 News, says that staff who worked on the show have called it “beyond embarrassing” and that it was the most “unprofessional” production they had ever worked on.
One production worker Rick, who worked as a contestant wrangler for the show said that communication on set was “terrible” which caused a number of problems, including with the medics who struggled to monitor what medication was required for various contestants.
The report claims that contestants were not allowed to bring any belongings, including medication, with them into Allegiant Stadium, where 2000 contestants were based for a preliminary qualifying ‘episode’ for the show intended for YouTube.
The majority of contestants were staying at the Rio and Luxor casinos where the production medics were also based but they had “no idea that [some contestants] were at other casinos”. Those contestants had their items collected by production staff that promised to deliver them to the “appropriate department”.
A medic named Mona claims “their stuff was supposed to be turned into us and never was” and that “everything was on the fly. We didn’t have a real understanding of what they expected, or even if they knew what they were expecting. I don’t think that it was planned out because all the information was not given.”
Another contestant wrangler, Kara, who worked at Allegiant Stadium between 18-21 July, said there was also a huge sanitary issue with the portable toilets used on set.

She claims that she only saw the portable toilets emptied once during the four days on set which resulted in overflowing. Kara added on the third day: “We had a guy come up to us with his sleeping bag, and his sleeping bag was covered in excrement.”
Kara also said that an unnamed contestant wrangler was threatened with “termination” after they refused to clean up the mess, despite not being given the proper equipment to deal with human waste.
“That’s a major OSHA [Occupational Safety and Health Administration] violation. You don’t ask people to clean porta potties like that”, she added.
A third contestant wrangler, Hannah, who was in charge of guiding and coordinating contestants said that she felt “unprofessional” after she was left without any call sheets and that she “should have had more protocols to help me [do my job]”.
She also claims that one contestant had a seizure and “they just left him there” with the incident only being brought to their attention an hour later with the community ambulance medical team then treating the patient.
In August, The New York Times reported that competitors now say they have not received adequate food or medical care.
“We signed up for the show, but we didn’t sign up for not being fed or watered or treated like human beings,” one contestant told The Times on the condition of anonymity, as they had signed a non-disclosure agreement.
One meal, described to The Times by several different contestants, consisted of a small portion of cold oatmeal, a few pieces of raw vegetables and a single hard-boiled egg.
MrBeast has been contacted for comment.

Hit reality show lands TENTH series and it’s back on TV in just days
TEEN Mom UK is returning to screens next month for a dramatic tenth series.
The hit MTV series follows former teen mums Sassi Simmonds, Amber Butler, Chloe Patton, and Mia Boardman, who are all now navigating parenthood in their twenties.
News of the latest series was announced on the Teen Mom UK Instagram account, along with the official trailer for the upcoming series of the reality show.
“Teen Mom UK is back! With fresh challenges, big changes and exciting ventures,” the announcement read.
It also confirmed the new series is just days away, adding: “Don’t miss Teen Mom UK, returning 8pm Wednesday 16th October only on MTV UK.”
Meanwhile, the trailer teased a bit more about what viewers can expect to see in series 10.
“Their children are growing up fast … but the mums have had to grow up faster,” the voiceover begins before it cuts to a clip of Chloe, who finds herself asking: “where has eight years gone?”
Chloe, from Nottingham, joined Teen Mom UK at age 17 when she was pregnant with son Marley after a course of antibiotics caused her contraceptive pill to fail.
The trailer also teases that “brand new challenges lie ahead” for the mums.
This includes the fact that Sassi’s baby daddy Darren Quirk is having a child with another woman.
Sassi shares daughter Zena’ya Saint with ex Darren.
The pair were childhood sweethearts, but split after their daughter was born.
They tried to patch things up while on the show, but it looks as though they are co-parenting together now.
This may become a difficult task as Darren becomes a parent again with his new partner.
Alongside Chloe and Sassi, the reality series will showcase highs and lows of motherhood for Mia, who is mum to daughter Marliya, and reality star and influencer Amber who shares two children with on-off partner Steven ‘Ste’ Rankine.
The series will see the women try to balance motherhood with burgeoning career aspirations and societal pressures.
Of course they’ll be plenty of drama, “but wherever life takes them, their children are always by their side.
UK Teen Mum Statistics
Teen pregnancies in the UK have been decreasing considerably since 2007…
The under-18 conception rate has decreased considerably since 2007, reports Nuffield Trust.
Between 2007 and 2021, the under-18 conception rate in England and Wales decreased by 68%, from 42 per 1,000 women to 13 per 1,000 women.
This resulted in 13,131 under-18 conceptions in England and Wales in 2021.
“Rocking motherhood one step at a time.
“Older, wiser and ready for anything,” the trailer concludes.
Series 10 of Teen Mom UK premieres Wednesday 16th October at 8pm on MTV UK.

Gossip Girl stars share photo of unexpected lift reunion
Two stars from the original Gossip Girl series had a mini reunion, delighting fans of the show.
Ed Westwick and Kelly Rutherford posed together in a gold lift for a trio of selfies which they both shared to social media.
Posting one snap on his Instagram stories, Westwick captioned the picture: “Elevator selfie with the legend herself.”
Meanwhile, Rutherford uploaded all three pictures to her Instagram with a black heart emoji.
In the pictures, both are sporting shades, while Westwick is dressed in head-to-toe black and Rutherford is wearing layers in shades of beige.
The pair’s characters were close in the CW show, which ran for six seasons from 2007 to 2012, charting the fictional lives of Manhattan’s elite social set.
Westwick starred as bad-boy hotel heir Chuck Bass, while Rutherford played his stepmother and then adoptive mother Lily van der Woodsen (though her surname changed several times throughout the show due to her numerous marriages).
Lily was also the mother of Serena van der Woodsen, played by Blake Lively in her break-out role, and married Chuck’s father Bart Bass, played by Robert John Burke, in the season one finale. After Bart was killed off in season two, Lily became like a mother to Chuck, and the characters were often involved in mutual plotlines and heartfelt scenes together.
The social media post of the pair unexpectedly reuniting 12 years after the show ended garnered more than 1.4 million likes and thousands of excited comments from fans.
“Fave duo,” wrote one, while another commented: “best. reunion. ever.”
Westwick recently married his girlfriend of three years, Supergirl actress Amy Jackson, in a lavish Italian wedding ceremony, also attended by Rutherford.
The original Gossip Girl cast included Penn Badgley, who went on to play the main character in hit Netflix show You, and Kristen Bell, who acted as narrator by providing the narration as the anonymous Gossip Girl character.
A reboot of the show aired on HBO in 2021 to mixed reviews.
