Jeff Garlin has exited ABC’s The Goldbergs effective immediately following a human resources investigation stemming from several complaints about the comedian’s on-set behavior.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the cast and crew were informed of Garlin’s sudden departure by a veteran producer Wednesday, after Garlin and Sony Pictures Television had reached a mutual agreement.
Earlier this year, The Goldbergs said goodbye to fellow cast member George Segal, who died in March from bypass surgery complications at the age of 87.
Garlin had not yet completed production on The Goldbergs‘ current 18-episode order.
