9 Celebrities Who Walked Out On Popular Shows To Good And Bad Results For Their Career

Tisha Campbell-Martin

Talk about making and breaking a show. When Tisha Campbell Martin started appearing less and less during season four to the point that she disappeared and only re-appeared in the last three episodes of the series (but not in the same scenes with Martin Lawrence), it really flipped the show upside down. The focus became less about Martin and Gina, and more about Pam, Tommy, Cole, and a lot of other story-lines that just weren’t as interesting. Of course, she left the show in 1997 saying that she had been sexually harassed by Lawrence and that the work environment had become too tense to work in. She even filed a lawsuit. After parting ways with the show, Campbell-Martin went on to do the movie Sprung and had cameos and guest appearances in different movies and TV shows here and there. Her career definitely received a resurgence when she starred as Janet “Jay” Kyle on the ABC comedy, My Wife and Kids. She also had a role on the short-lived series, The Protector on Lifetime.
