More than 50 TV stars left us in shock last year when they opted to depart their shows… and we’re sensing that similar heartbreak is already underway in 2023.

Though only a quarter of the year has passed, the last three months have delivered several stunning cast exits, which we’ve compiled in the list below. On the scripted side, All American, Grey’s Anatomy and Chicago Fire are among the shows to announce surprising departures — though Taylor Kinney’s comes with an asterisk, as he’s currently expected to return to Chicago Fire at some point. (You’ll notice we excluded Sex Education‘s Ncuti Gatwa and Emma Mackey from our roundup; their potential exits are unconfirmed, as is Sex Education‘s fate beyond the upcoming fourth season.)
