Netflix signs Grey’s Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes to multi-year deal – The Verge

Acclaimed television writer and producer Shonda Rhimes has signed a multi-year deal with Netflix, where shell produce new series and work on other projects for the streaming company. The deal means Rhimes, known for her work as the creator and show runner of Greys Anatomy and Scandal, will depart ABC after 15 years with the broadcaster. She will be reportedly paid around $10 million a year at Netflix, and will be accompanied in the move by longtime collaborator Betsy Beers.

Shonda Rhimes is one of the greatest storytellers in the history of television, said Ted Sarandos, chief content officer at Netflix, in a press statement. Her work is gripping, inventive, pulse-pounding, heart-stopping, taboo-breaking television at its best. Shows from ShondaLand Rhimes production company including Greys Anatomy, Scandal, and How to Get Away with Murder will continue to air on ABC. These shows are also available to stream on Netflix (depending on your region.)

The move to Netflix means Rhimes will be able to work in a wider range of genres and formats, according to Variety. "ShondaLands move to Netflix is the result of a shared plan Ted Sarandos and I built based on my vision for myself as a storyteller and for the evolution of my company, said Rhimes. Ted provides a clear, fearless space for creators at Netflix. He understood what I was looking for the opportunity to build a vibrant new storytelling home for writers with the unique creative freedom and instantaneous global reach.

This deal marks another step in a content arms race where companies like Netflix and Amazon are carving up exclusive deals that would usually only be available to TV networks at least back in their heyday. Just last week, Amazon pinched The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman from AMC. While a single show might be valuable, having a creator on board where all their new shows will be exclusive to one platform is especially lucrative. Netflix currently has 104 million subscribers in over 190 countries, so the appetite for high-quality, original content remains huge.

Anatomy of yet another Dodgers comeback – True Blue LA

The Dodgers came through again on Wednesday night, erasing a two-run deficit to deliver their MLB-best 10th walk-off victory of the season, a 5-4 win over the hapless White Sox. Lets take a moment to relive the Dodgers 38th comeback win of 2017.

The White Sox are in full rebuild mode, and have lost 27 of their last 35 games, including 14 of their last 16 road games. Chicago had a chance to leave Los Angeles with a win, up 4-2 entering the ninth, but were left with a unique situation.

None of their relievers have recorded a save this season, the result of midseason deals to continue the rebuild. David Robertson (13 saves this season for Chicago), Tyler Clippard (two saves) and Anthony Swarzak (one save) were all traded in the last month.

Gregory Infante, who was a non-roster invitee in spring training with the Dodgers in 2013, started the ninth for the White Sox, and retired Justin Turner for the first out. At that point, per the FanGraphs game log the Dodgers had a 3.8-percent win expectancy.

The Baseball-Reference game log showed a five-percent win expectancy at the same point. The takeaway: the odds were still long for the Dodgers.

With a Cody Bellinger pinch hitting, manager Rick Renteria turned to left-hander Aaron Bummer, who like Infante has no career saves. Bellinger, who was out of the starting lineup for just the fourth time in his 99-game career, delivered a single up the middle.

The left-handed rookie is hitting .270/.323/.533 against southpaw pitchers this season.

Then came another pitching change. Jake Petricka, who forced home the go-ahead run with a hit by pitch then allowed a pair of two-run singles in the eighth inning on Tuesday night, was called upon to finish things off for the White Sox. Petricka doesnt have a save this season, but did save 16 games in 2014-15 for Chicago.

Logan Forsythe greeted him with a double down the left field line to score Bellinger, pulling the Dodgers within one. Austin Barnes, who hit a two-run single against Petricka on Tuesday, singled again on Wednesday, but his knock to center field was hit too hard to score Forsythe from second base.

Petricka during the two-game series faced nine batters. He allowed six hits and hit a batter, allowing four runs of his own and all four of his inherited runners.

The Dodgers swept their 16th series of the season best in MLB. Even if you remove the sweeps this season (a 46-0 game record), the Dodgers would be 39-34 (.534), a winning percentage good enough to lead the National League Central and behind only Washington, Colorado and Arizona in the entire NL.

Yasiel Puig, who recorded his 50th walk of the season earlier in the game, and who walked twice to load the bases to spark rallies on Tuesday night as well, ran the count to 3-2 against Petricka, but nearly struck out, barely fouling off a ball at the plate.

Then, Puig grabbed the ball and did this:

Mary Hart didnt know what to think. It didnt go unnoticed.

I wonder if they kept that ball, with the bite mark on it, said analyst Nomar Garciaparra on the SportsNet LA broadcast.

Two pitches later on the eighth pitch of the at-bat Puig hit the ball into the gap in left center field. He hit it into no-mans land, and with Barnes flying from first base, it was obvious the winning run would score with ease. Look where Barnes is before any White Sox outfielder was anywhere close to the ball.

Barnes scored from first easily without a throw.

Joe Davis didnt get to call any home games in his first year calling the Dodgers, but now as the full-time announcer he has crammed in two years worth of memorable calls into one. Davis was up to the task in calling the Dodgers 10th walk-off win of the season.

Can Yasiel Puig deliver? You bet he can! Into the gap in left center. Not a question of if. The question is who, and when. Tonight, its Puig in the ninth!

Davis rises to the occasion at the right moments, and last night delivered in his own right, even invoking a much more exciting game of Clue to describe the game-winner.

To Davis point, the question of who is real, of the 10 Dodgers walk-off wins this season, nine different players have delivered the winning RBI.

The Dodgers are 8-27 (.229) when trailing after eight innings in 2017. The rest of MLB in those situations is 141-1,426 (.090).

Even with the excitement of the call, Davis let the moment breathe as well, going silent for 51 seconds afterward, letting the celebration do the talking before adding, How do you like that, folks? Yasiel Puig, the hero.

During the euphoria, Puig found his man, hitting coach Turner Ward. Before the game, they were both wearing new t-shirts.

Then, life imitated art:

What a game.

It was so good, it was worth overlooking this cringe-worthy sponsored celebration pun:

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Star Jesse Williams Accused Of Violent Rages By Ex – Daily Beast

Greys Anatomy star Jesse Williams has been labelled a rage-fueled individual with poor parenting skills who maintains a revolving door of women and exposed his children to a terrifying road rage incident in which he threatened to kill a neighbor.

The allegations are contained in explosive court documents obtained by dailymail.com.

The allegations against Williams, 36, come from his ex-wife, Aryn Drake-Lee, 34, who divorced him in April.

The allegations are the latest salvo in a bitter custody battle over their children, aged 3 and 1.

Drake-Lee also claims the actor has cynically started posting photographs of his children on social media to bolster his brand.

Drake-Lee claimed the road rage incident happened on July 18. Drake-Lee claims that following argument with a neighbor, Williams aggressively pursued him in his car with their two children inside and allegedly threatened to kill him.

I was so alarmed that Jesse exposed our children to danger, Drake-Lee says in the filing, in which she is seeking sole custody of the children after their 14-year relationship broke down.

Drake-Lee claims Williams has had a revolving door of intimate partners since the divorce and has made no effort to keep knowledge of his multiple girlfriends from their children.

In previously filed court documents Williams set out to prove he was a doting dad by listing his kids nicknames and favorite foods.

Drake-Lee is also unhappy that Williams now regularly posts photos of their children on social media to promote an image of himself: Jesse, a story teller by profession, appears to be trying to create some sort of fairytale parenting scenario that does not tell the complete story, the real story of parenting, she says in the filing, according to dailymail.com.

Drake-Lee is asking the court for a full-day mediation session to determine a path forward between her and Williams.

When the former couples divorce first hit the headlines, it was reported that Williams cheated on Drake-Lee with multiple women while they were married and hes been linked with his one-time co-worker, actress Minka Kelly.

Anatomy Lab Live comes to Manchester with dinner, drinks – and a live post-mortem – Manchester Evening News

An interactive autopsy show which dissects a semi-synthetic human cadaver is coming to Manchester.

Anatomy Lab Live is a touring hands-on post-mortem suite, which serves a sumptuous two-course dinner to guests before the gory procedure begins.

After its UK tour last year the show returns bigger and better in 2018, with a string of dates including a show in the Village Hotel Ashton on January 27.

Those attending will be given mortuary wear including protective surgical hats, masks and aprons as well as scalpels, scissors, forceps and bone saws.

A team of human anatomists, medics and physiologists will accompany host and science teacher Samuel Piri as they carry out a real post-mortem.

The cadaver - known as VIVIT - is the next best thing to a real human cadaver and houses real internal organs from pigs, chosen for their anatomical similarity to humans.

Visitors will also be given a set of case notes to look over before then starting procedures for themselves, which could include a real head and brain sample, the pulmonary system, the gastrointestinal tract, or the heart and greater blood vessels.

There will also be Q&A time as the floor opens for questions from the audience.

According to organisers, this event is a high-level interactive experience for level 4 and above, and the content is aimed at those studying towards graduate professions. However, the wider public is welcome to attend and the event will allocate some anatomy pods especially for those with a general interest.

Tickets for the dinner and dissection are 79 general admission, with discounts available for students. Book online via eventbrite.co.uk .

Patrick Dempsey Has Finally Found the TV Role Worthy of His … – E! Online

Cindy Ord/Getty Images for SiriusXM

Patrick Dempsey is ready for his TV comeback.

Two years after the actor walked away from Grey's Anatomy, killing off his beloved character Derek Shepherd in the process, Dempsey has signed on for the lead role in the upcoming Epix adaptation of the best-selling novel, The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair. Production on the 10-part event series is underway in Montreal.

In the suspenseful drama, produced by MGM Television, Dempsey will take on the title role of Harry Quebert,a literary icon who suddenly finds himself indicted for murder after the body of a young girl is found buried on his property.

The series takes place in coastal Maine and focuses on Marcus Goldman (Ben Schnetzer), a successful young novelist who had been mentored by Harry, as visiting his mentor'shome to find a cure for his writer's block as his publisher's deadline looms. Marcus' plans are suddenly upended when Harry is sensationally implicated in the cold-case murder of Nola Kellergan, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been missing for many years.

The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair also stars Happy Endings alum Damon Wayans Jr. asSgt. Perry Gahalowood, a Maine State Police investigator who is investigating the death of Kellergan, and Virginia Madsen as Tamara Quinn,the owner of a local diner who learns of a secret about Quebert.

"Jol Dicker's exquisite thriller, The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair has captivated a worldwide audience with its complicated tale of love and lies. I am thrilled that this first class ensemble cast led by Patrick Dempsey and the incomparable director Jean-Jacques Annaud, get to bring provocative page-turner to life," said Steve Stark, MGM's President, Television Production & Development.

When Dempsey shocked fans with his sudden departure from the long-running ABC soap that revitalized his career, he noted that he'd likely never sign on for a workload that a broadcast series like Grey's requires from its actors."I would commit to a show that is 10 to 12 episodes.But 24 again, Idon't know if i would do that," he told EW at the time. "It's a very hard life. It's financially rewarding but there comes a point where how much is enough, really?"

Are you looking forward to Dempsey's return to TV? Sound off in the comments below!

The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair will likely debut on Epix in 2018.

If you're craving scoop on something in particular, e-mail us your question at mega_scoop@tvguide.com or drop us a line at Twitter.com/TVGuide. You can also catch up on all the latest Mega Buzz right here!

April (Sarah Drew) dropped a truth bomb that everyone but Maggie (Kelly McCreary) saw coming in the Grey's Anatomy Season 13 finale. Jackson (Jesse Williams) has the hots for the head of cardio and she's got the hots for him too. But are they ready to make the leap to coupledom? When the show returns, Maggie still isn't sure how to react to the info that April served up.

"April left Maggie with a lot of questions. Maggie having feelings, Jackson having feelings -- that was something that had literally never crossed Maggie's mind," McCreary told TV Guide. "What [we pick up] with is Maggie trying to find out if that's true or not and beyond that, none of us knows."

Um, then what's up with all the Instagram photos trying to tell fans that #jaggpril (Jackson-Maggie-April) is a real thing? Turns out the cast of Grey's Anatomy has got jokes.

"That's us trolling you. We don't know what's going on. We know how hot and bothered everyone gets about it and we are just having a good time," McCreary said. "We're f---king with you guys."

Don't worry, we didn't let McCreary off that easy. Even if Jackson and Maggie aren't immediately fogging up the on-call room windows, she knows there's potential there and wants to see what's up.

"Those two characters for all of the reasons that people don't want them to be together -- that's what makes good drama," she teased. "Whether they come together in a romantic way or in a strictly platonic way, there's a dynamic there. There's shared family. There's background that is worth exploring for character and story purposes. So yeah, I want to have scenes with him."

Grey's Anatomy returns Thursday, Sept. 28 at 8/7c on ABC.

Use your (arrows) to browse

Doctors come and go, while patients cant always be saved. Greys Anatomy is going into its 14th season, and only four of the original cast members are still around. Over the years, weve seen patients die from complications in surgery, be too far gone to save, and walk away thanks to the doctors. As for the doctors, weve watched them leave the hospital for good, succumb to illnesses, or suffer tragic accidents.

While the exits have been memorable, fans have been left angry and hurt. Storylines have been disappointing and Greys fans have just wanted to know why. Most of the exits have been mutual decisions behind the scenes, but that news never makes it easy for fans.

There have been storylines that have left us feeling empty. weve been left wondering why. And there were even storylines that left us hating other characters in the show because of the exits.

While Ive looked at the most heartbreaking deaths in the past, Ive never looked at the worst exits on the show.

Heres a look at the eight worst Greys Anatomy exitsand why they were just so bad.

Web exclusive: Anatomy of a murder trial – News – The Evening … – Hornell Evening Tribune

In this Evening Tribune special web report, Neal Simon details the testimony of one witness in the Iryn Meyers murder trial State Police Inv. Brent Bernard

Iryn Meyers Trial

Mrs. Meyers is charged with second-degree murder, two counts of first-degree arson, conspiracy, attempted insurance fraud, insurance fraud and filing a false written statement. Meyers, a native of the Philippines, has pleaded not guilty to all charges, and is currently on trial in a Steuben County courtroom.

Witness

State Police Inv. Brent Bernard. On Feb. 15, 2016, Bernard was a New York State Police investigator assigned to the Wayland, N.Y. barracks.

Why hes important

Bernard was the first law enforcement official to interview Iryn Meyers following the fire on New Galen Road that took the life of 60-year-old David ODell, a friend of both Iryn Meyers and her husband Joseph Meyers.

Based on what Iryn Meyers told Bernard, she was subsequently arrested for making a false written statement.

Also, Bernard did not testify in Joseph Meyers trial, which resulted in Mr. Meyers conviction for first-degree murder and arson.

Bernard on the stand

The investigator testified Monday before the Steuben County criminal trial jury. During direct examination he was questioned by Steuben County District Attorney Brooks Baker, and he was later cross-examined by Brenda Smith Aston, one of the two defense attorneys for Iryn Meyers.

Bernard testified that after arriving on the fire scene at approximately 9 a.m. on Feb. 15, 2016, he was told by his boss, Senior Inv. Curtis Eaton, to interview Iryn Meyers.

Bernard said Iryn Meyers was one of the few civilian bystanders at the fire scene that morning, and the intention of his interview was to learn what she knew about the victim, when she had seen him last, and to ascertain if she had any knowledge about what may have led to the fire.

According to Bernard, the pair went into a State Police vehicle to conduct the interview, as the temperature outside was frigid, hovering near 10 degrees. Bernard said the printer in the police cruiser would not print the deposition correctly, so he suggested they go to the barracks in Wayland to complete the interview. He drove them both to the barracks.

Bernard testified that Mrs. Meyers was not a murder suspect and was free to leave or decline to answer questions at any time.

Iryn Meyers Statement

According to Bernards testimony, Iryn Meyers said I have no idea how Davids house burned down.

She explained that she had been living at the ODell house for a few months, helping to take care of David as she and her husband were having marital difficulties. She said she had feared David was a danger to the house and himself, mentioning that he previously left clothes on a space heater, which had started a small fire.

Iryn Meyers told Bernard that she got off work at Finger Lakes DDSO around 11 p.m. She said she and Joe had some leftover pot roast, cuddled for a bit and eventually drove the couple miles to ODells house to pick up a bathing suit, as they wanted to pay a visit to Logans Inn and use a hot tub.

They started off for Logan Inns but decided to call ahead from the road. A call to Logans Inn from Iryns phone was placed at 1:08 a.m. During the call, the couple learned the hot tub was closed, so they went back home for the night, according the statement.

Further investigation

Bernard testified that Joseph Meyers was being questioned at the same time as his wife, but by another investigator. After comparing the couples two accounts, investigators were left unsatisfied.

A lot of little things were not matching up for something that took place (just) eight or nine hours earlier, Bernard testified.

According to Iryn Meyers deposition, her husband received a phone call from one of ODells sisters at approximately 8 a.m. on Feb. 15. The sister told Mr. Meyers that her brothers house had burned down. He told her he would drive over and see what was going on.

At approximately 8:30 a.m., according to Iryn, her husband called her and told her David ODells house had burned down.

Cross-Examination

In her opening statement last week, Aston suggested to the jury that investigators made up their minds almost instantly, focusing on arson and Iryn and Joseph Meyers with 18 minutes. Questioned by Smith about the purpose of his interview with Iryn Meyers, Bernard denied she was a target of the investigation at that point.

We were investigating a fire, he said.

Under questioning by Aston, Bernard acknowledged that not everything Iryn Meyers said between about 9 a.m. when the interview started and 2:20 p.m. when the deposition was signed was included in the final statement.

Aston asked Bernard if he was picking and choosing what to include. He responded that the final deposition was all the pertinent information that was gleaned.

What will the jury think?

Inconsistencies in Iryn Meyers statement, the prosecution says, were exposed later when law enforcement personnel seized a video surveillance system from Joseph Meyers residence. For example, surveillance video appears to show the couple getting in a car and pulling out of the property at about 7:30 a.m., on Feb. 15, 2016. They come back about ten minutes later and re-enter the residence.

The prosecution believes they made a quick trip to check out the fire damage, prior to the 8:30 a.m. call when they purportedly first heard about the fire. Also, there is no mention in Iryns statement to Bernard about this 7:30 a.m. incident.

Not so fast, the defense says.

Did you ask her if she had been to the fire scene earlier? Aston asked Bernard.

He said he did not ask her that question.

She told me where she had been, answered Bernard.
