10 Actors Whose Careers Died After Leaving Their Hit Show

9. Courtney Thorne-Smith

Courtney Thorne-Smith was no stranger to primetime television when she was given the role of Georgia Thomas on Ally McBeal. Smith was well-known for portraying Alison Parker on Melrose Place, and fans of Ally McBeal took to her character almost immediately. For three seasons, she was in the center of a love triangle between Ally and her ex-boyfriend, but soon enough, Thorne-Smith decided it was time to bid the show adieu. She blamed her exit on weight problems, saying it was too much pressure to compete with her svelte co-star, Calista Flockhart. After her departure, her career quickly puttered out.
