Goldbergs Renewed for Season 10 — Will Jeff Garlin's Murray Be Killed Off?

.....ABC’s family time with The Goldbergs will continue: The long-running comedy has been renewed for Season 10

The series, of course, will return sans longtime cast member Jeff Garlin (aka patriarch Murray Goldberg), who exited the show in December 2021 following a human resources investigation stemming from several complaints about the comedian’s on-set behavior. Garlin and Sony Pictures Television reached a mutual agreement that called for the actor’s departure. In subsequent episodes, pre-recorded dialogue and a body double was employed for Murray, with Garlin’s face superimposed in post-production.

Star Wendi McLendon-Covey broke her silence on Garlin’s exit and the show’s handling of the situation in March. “This season threw us for a loop because a.) it’s hard to incorporate someone who doesn’t want to be there and wants to leave mid-scene,” McLendon-Covey wrote on Twitter, “and b.) we werent about to re-write the 2nd half of the season. We’re doing our best.”

According to sources, Garlin’s departure is expected to be addressed when Murray is written out of the show early into Season 10.

Earlier this season, The Goldbergs also said goodbye to cast member George Segal, who died in March 2021 from bypass surgery complications at the age of 87. In the Season 9 premiere, it was revealed that Pops had quietly passed away in his sleep.....

another......season......?!


....F. Murray Abrahm not returning for 'Mythic Quest' Season 3.....and they are being very 'no comment' with no reason given [ hope he didn't pull a 'Frank Langella' and harrass someone? If it was due to health/age or other projects, they would have said so but instead they won't give a reason why he is gone ]....

Mythic Quest: F. Murray Abraham Exits Ahead of Season 3

.....When Mythic Quest returns with its third season on Apple TV+, it will do so without cast member F. Murray Abraham.

“F. Murray Abraham will not be returning to Season 3 of Mythic Quest,” producing studio Lionsgate confirmed to VanityFair.com in a statement, before cryptically adding, “Beyond that, we do not comment on matters concerning personnel.”

The 82-year-old Oscar winner — who currently voices the role of Khonsh on Disney+’s Moon Knight — co-starred on Mythic Quest as video game auteur C.W. Longbottom.

The news comes six months after Apple TV+ renewed the comedy series for Seasons 3 and 4.

Created by Rob McElhenney and his It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia cohorts Charlie Day and Megan Ganz, Mythic Quest “follows the team behind the biggest multiplayer video game of all time,” according to the official logline. In addition to McElhenney and Abraham, the ensemble cast includes Community‘s Danny Pudi, Imani Hakim, Charlotte Nicdao, Ashly Burch, Jessie Ennis and fellow EP David Hornsby.

F. Murray Abraham......gone......?!

Garlin and ABC mutually agreed on the split. They paid him for the remaining episodes, and there was no drama. He allowed them to fake his presence to wrap things up.

He has had certain behaviors for several seasons, and there have been previous talks, just nothing that warranted a parting of ways. I suspect they decided it wasn't going to continue to work that way.

I've been following this for a while. His behavior is what it is. ABC went into the contract knowing he was a very huggy kind of guy, and used coarse language, but not in a mean or abusive way. I guess times have changed, and maybe not for the better.
