Dylan McDermott, Lara Flynn Boyle and four other stars will not be returning to legal drama 'The Practice'.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the options on their contracts are not being renewed following a major cut in the fee, which network ABC pays for the show.
The ratings for the last series fell and 'The Practice' returned with ABC insisting that it would pay 50% less to license the show.
Aside from McDermott and Boyle, Kelli Williams, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Marla Sokoloff and Chyler Leigh are also leaving.
It is understood that McDermott will guest star in at least four shows next season.
