The reimagined iteration of ’16 and Pregnant’ embraces a slightly different format as compared to the original iterations. It follows the unexpected pregnancy journey of young teens from multiple perspectives and does not limit the viewpoints only to the mother.

Nina L Diaz, president and chief creative content officer at ViacomCBS Entertainment & Youth Group, explained the revamped format in a press release: “More than a decade after 16 & Pregnant played a significant role in bringing the teen pregnancy rate down to record lows, we are sharing the stories of a new generation of young parents and underscoring the impact of an unplanned pregnancy on families – beyond the mums- and dads-to-be – by showing authentic and intimate moments with siblings- and grandparents-to-be addressing the life change.”
The premiere episode introduces us to 16-year-old Madisen — raised by her single dad, Nick. But Madisen becomes confused when her estranged mum connects with her after many years. And the expecting young girl tells her dad that although she knew he never wanted her to contact his wife, she does want her kid to have a granny. Madisen further says: “I remember sitting there crying all night because she wouldn’t show up, or she would show up and she was messed up on something. I don’t know why I feel bad honestly.” Nick replies: “Because she’s your mom, that’s why you feel bad.” You can additionally watch the promo for the episode here.
