Good grief! Now it's Jeffrey Tambor -- and he's leaving Transparent [View all]
after allegations that he sexually harassed a female assistant.
Would he be leaving if other allegations weren't likely to follow? (The first paragraph says "two members" but the article only mentions one.)

On Sunday, Jeffrey Tambor announced he would not be returning to Transparent following the sexual harassment allegations made against him by two members of the Amazon series team.
Playing Maura Pfefferman on Transparent has been one of the greatest privileges and creative experiences of my life, Tambor told Deadline. What has become clear over the past weeks, however, is that this is no longer the job I signed up for four years ago.
He added, Ive already made clear my deep regret if any action of mine was ever misinterpreted by anyone as being aggressive, but the idea that I would deliberately harass anyone is simply and utterly untrue. Given the politicized atmosphere that seems to have afflicted our set, I dont see how I can return to Transparent.
