15 Shows that Replaced Actors and Hoped We Wouldn’t Notice

10. The Munsters

For the first 13 episodes of The Munsters cousin Marylin was played by Beverly Owen, but then she fell in love and decided to break contract, move to New York and get married. Pat Priest was left to take over. Beverly’s choice got her a five year ban from the studio, and then she and her hubby divorced in 1974.

11. Sesame Street

The role of Gordon on Sesame Street was originally played by Matt Robinson from 1969 to 1972, but he wasn’t super thrilled to be in front of the camera and had actually joined the project to do behind the scenes work. The role was later recast with Hal Miller, and then followed by Roscoe Orman who most people recognize in the role 36 years later.

12. The Fosters

Jake T. Austin had a pretty big role as Jesus on the show The Fosters, but this year a different actor named Noah Centineo took his place after two seasons. Speculation is that Jake wanted to move on from teen roles.
