We are also aware of the effects of this process on the cast and crew members who work on our show and to avoid further disruption on set, we have decided to remove the role of `Jamal’ from the final two episodes of the season.” The series which is currently on a mid-season break will return on March 13th with nine episodes.Photo Credit: Getty
