I’m doing the best I can.
This the first time that I’ve opened up about this.”
EW previously reported that the decision for Garlin to leave was a mutual one.
“They feel that it makes for a quote ‘unsafe’ workspace.
Now, mind you, my silliness making an unsafe workspace I don’t understand how that is.
And I’m on a comedy show.
I am always a kind and thoughtful person.”
“I make mistakes, sure.
But my comedy is about easing people’s pain,” he said.
“Why would I ever want to cause pain in anybody for a laugh?
That’s just uncalled for.”
How the patriarch died has not yet been disclosed.
Co-showrunnerChris Bishop previously told EW season 10"feels like a huge reboot for us."
