It appears Scandal! is reshuffling actors this season as it's completely gotten rid of half the actors and replaced them with the Kubekas.
--
The writers killed five characters and will kill Lerumo Chabedi (Tshepo Masese) and his father Neo Mokgethi (Jerry Mofokeng wa Makhetha) in the next few weeks.
Two leading actors namely Sivenathi Mabuya (Xolile Langa) and Bathabile Mashigo (Grace Medupe) will also exit the show according to the current storyline.

IS EVERYBODY LEAVING? Neo Mokgethi's exit is the saddest because it looks like he'll die in prison alone as he was currently diagnosed with cancer and got arrested yesterday for money laundering and racketeering.
We know that his on-screen son Tshepo Howza who plays the role of Lerumo Chabedi has also bid farewell to the show to concentrate on his music.
Actress Sivenathi Mabuya who played the role of Xolile Langa and Romeo Medupe's wife bid farewell to the show today (7 September) on social media.

MORE EXITS Xolile was Boniswa Langa's (Lusanda Mbane) daughter who also bid farewell to the show last Friday (3 September).
Romeo Medupe's mother Grace Medupe (Bathabile Mashigo) also announced she's selling her shares at the Newtonian Hotel and leaving the show after she killed Boniswa Langa last Friday.
Romeo Medupe (Hungani Ndlovu) was also confirmed dead last month (August) after his wife and his mother buried the wrong body a year ago.
The most shocking exit for viewers was Brighton Ngoma's (Quinton Nyathi) exit on Friday (3 Septemeber) as he was with the show for 12 years.
He seemed to have finally settled down with his little family and was set to marry the love of his life Dintle (Mapaseka Koetle-Nyokong) before the writer's got rid of him too.
Viewers also said goodbye to fan-favourite Mlungisi Ngema (Patrick Mofokeng) who exited the show after seven years to play the role of Mandla Cele on 1Magic's Lingashoni.
