4. Gilbert Gottfried

Not all TV stars have their own sitcom. Gilbert Gottfried was well-known for years as the voice of the Aflac duck. The comedian has found himself in trouble a time or two in his career, once making a joke about 9/11 just weeks after the tragic event. But this time, it was tweets in poor taste following an earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

As it turns out, a large majority of Aflac’s business is done in Japan. Oops. Gottfried was unceremoniously let go for his insensitivity.

5. Josh Duggar

Once upon a time, TLC ran a popular reality show called 19 Kids and Counting. The show featured the Duggar family, led by Josh and Michelle Duggar. The family is devoutly Christian, which was a big part of the appeal to their base audience. But then came the revelation that Josh was not the good man he appeared to be. According to his own parents, Josh had gotten into hot water in his youth for molesting his four sisters and a babysitter.

TLC canceled the show in the wake of the scandal, and while the Duggar family continues to occasionally make headlines, Josh has mostly gone into hiding.

6. Thomas Gibson

Actor Thomas Gibson hit it big with two popular shows, first the ABC comedy Dharma & Greg and later with a role on CBS’ Criminal Minds. It all started with Gibson pushing a producer on the set of Criminal Minds, which required him to attend anger management.

That didn’t quite do the trick, as in 2016 he got into a heated debate with a writer and ended up kicking him. Gibson was immediately put on suspension from the show, and later written out. He hasn’t had any major appearances on TV since.

7. Jared Fogle

Subway sandwich shops have always done well, but they really came to popularity in the 1990s thanks to a very large man that lost a whole lot of weight. With some regular exercise and the low-calorie sandwiches, Jared Fogle really slimmed down – and in the process, he became Subway’s spokesman. Over the course of several years, he was prominently featured in their commercials touting $5 footlongs.

But Fogle was convicted of traveling across state lines for the purpose of having sex with a minor, as well as for possessing child pornography. It was a major fall from grace for the former spokesman, who has traded in TV appearances for the inside of a jail cell.

8. Kathy Griffin

We’ve never exactly been sure why Kathy Griffin was a major celebrity. Known for her red hair and unique voice, Griffin’s most prominent role came in the late-90s series Suddenly Susan. She has since made a career out of guest spots and small roles, appearing in shows such as American Dad!, Whitney, and Glee. But in 2017, she went a bit too far when she had a photo taken holding a dummy severed head of President Trump covered in “blood” (it was ketchup).

Since then, Griffin has been demonized by the media. Her only appearance on TV has been, appropriately enough, playing Kellyanne Conway on Comedy Central’s The President Show.

9. Charlie Sheen

Charlie Sheen was once the top-paid actor on TV with his hit CBS comedy, Two and a Half Men. The frequently troubled actor had stepped away from his once-promising movie career, which featured roles in such memorable hits as Platoon, Wall Street, and Major League. Sheen had success taking over for Michael J. Fox with Spin City, then rode high with Men from 2003-2011.

But back in the spotlight, Sheen just couldn’t help but ruin everything. Constant bickering on set and a public feud on Twitter with series creator Chuck Lorre ended Sheen’s run with the show, and he was branded a lunatic in the court of public opinion. That didn’t stop Sheen from landing another series, but Anger Management was short-lived. Since then, no major hit shows or movies have come his way.

10. Bill Cosby

Kids growing up in the 1980s and ’90s are very familiar with the Jell-O promoting TV star, Bill Cosby. The Cosby Show was a major hit that ran from 1984-1992, and the family-friendly comedian had plenty of other hits as well. Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids ran for 13 years, he played Hank on The Electric Company for 260 episodes, and countless other shows and movies made Cosby a legend in the industry.

But eventually, it was revealed that he wasn’t the family-friendly face that many had grown to believe. Cosby had a habit of drugging and assaulting unsuspecting women, and in 2018 he faced his day in court over the allegations. The 79-year-old could face as much as 30 years in prison.
