Law & Order is going into its fourth season this Fall, and today, they lost their fourth original cast member from the revival.
Anthony Anderson only appeared in the first season. But then, the third season saw three departures. Jeffrey Donovan parted ways just before filming started this season, and Sam Waterson said goodbye after over 400 episodes.
And today, Camryn Manheim announced that the season finale will be her final episode.
“I had the most incredible experience being a part of the Law & Order Universe, and more importantly the Wolfpack. I’m so thankful for the three wonderful seasons that I spent with this wildly talented cast of merry pranksters. Mehcad Brooks, Reid Scott, Connie Shi, Anthony Anderson, Jeffrey Donovan, Hugh Dancy, Odelya Halevi, Tony Goldwyn and Sam Waterston. Not to mention the stellar guest stars that came in and out of the studio doors.
“I loved showing up for work each and every day, loved keeping the boys in line at Precinct 27 and most importantly, loved spending time with the most hard working, professional and kindhearted crew. They are truly New York’s finest.
“Something wonderful awaits me around the corner, and I can’t wait to see what it is. Until then… Go Knicks!”
Hugh Dancy and Odelya Halevi are the only revival OG cast members left.
The good news is that The Conners will be back for a seventh season. The bad news is that the Roseanne sequel will be ending after a shortened season. According to Variety, it might only be six episodes.
The Conners is ABC’s highest-rated sitcom, but it is also probably very expensive to produce due to John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, and Sara Gilbert’s salaries.
Are you going to miss it? Or, are you like me and think that this has been a long time coming?
ABC sent all of their unscripted series to Hollywood, and seven of them made it to the 2024-2035 season.
The lucky seven are American Idol (season 8 on ABC and 23rd overall), The Bachelor (season 29), and Celebrity Jeopardy! (season 3), Celebrity Wheel of Fortune (season 5), Dancing with the Stars (season 33), Shark Tank (season 16), and What Would You Do? (season 17).
ABC is going to be busy this summer looking for a replacement for Katy Perry, who is leaving American Idol at the end of this season. The network also needs to start looking at who can fill Mark Cuban’s wallet because the mogul announced that next season will be his last on Shark Tank.
You would think a show called Not Dead Yet would never die. But today, ABC announced the comedy starring Gina Rodriguez, Lauen Ash, and Brad Garrett will not be back for a third season.
The news is not surprising, but it still hurts. It was a sweet show that made you smile even when there were sad scenes.
Even though the show is ending, it had a satisfying season finale. Although, I would have liked to have seen where they could’ve gone.
