If you believe ANY side. Both sides want to make it out that they were right. It’s what everyone does. I guarantee both are leaving out important details.

I wouldn’t be surprised if both him and Wayans were difficult to work with and the network chose to keep the bigger name.

Yeah I suppose you are right, but he makes a convincing case I do highly recommend watching the podcast. It is his word against his, but it seems he is exposing a lot.

Damon had back problems throughout the shoot, and his schedule was always lighter, even from the pilot. Clayne is and was an extremely talented actor, but is and was a diva and not friendly to work with. Making an action TV show on a network schedule is extremely difficult already, and throwing in that type of personality doesn’t help anybody. There were enough on set instances in this new era of not tolerating bullshit behavior that he had to go. Doesn’t matter he said/he said, it’s as simple as that.

I can understand. But I thought I heard Damon was the diva, despite the back issues according to other producers on the show. I may be wrong though.

I don’t think either of them were peaches! But I did hear about a lot of berating of crew members by Clayne that created a poor workplace environment.
