“Goodbye Che and hello Mary!!!” another supporter commented, referencing Sara Ramirez’s polarizing character, Che Diaz, who appeared in the series’ first two seasons before exiting earlier this year.

Reports surfaced that Ramirez would no longer be on the show following speculation that the non-binary actor was fired after sharing pro-Palestinian Instagram posts.

“While giving away awards, casting directors and agents are creating blacklists of actors and workers who post in support of the Palestinians in Gaza to ensure they will not work again,” Ramirez alleged at the time. “While they are setting up some of their own clients who have spoken out against this genocide, they are firing and letting others go with smaller platforms.”

They added, “It’s amazing how performative so many in Hollywood are. Even more performing than the last character I played,” referring to Diaz.

“Sara was not fired because they support Palestine and the ceasefire,” an insider told the newspaper. “Sara was fired because Che didn’t bring anything to the show anymore. After Che broke up with Miranda, the character really had no value anymore, and fans found them annoying.

It is unclear whether Miranda will finally find love with Mary, but the new season is not expected to premiere until 2025.
