Kevin Can Wait Fans Are Furious Over The 'Savage AF' Way Wife Donna's Death Was Addressed!

After it was revealed Kevin James' CBS show Kevin Can Wait would be "tastefully" killing off lead actress Erinn Hayes to make room for Leah Remini, fans finally got to see just how it went down on the season two premiere on Monday.

And it turns out Donna Gable's death wasn't as dignified as execs made it sound!

All viewers saw was a short scene with Kevin's on-screen daughter, Kendra (Taylor Spreitler), responding to a postcard in the mail from Donna's gym:

"Give me that, I will call them right now. It's been over a year since she died, they shouldn't still be sending this."

That was basically it. No explanation of how the show's leading lady passed.

So, it's not hard to see why fans of Kevin Can Wait were pissed!! See their frustrated reactions (below):

In a new interview, the actress claimed she was pressured to talk to her King of Queens costar about joining the controversial religion, but felt uncomfortable with trying to convert his beliefs.

Elisabeth Moss never really talks about being in the Church Of Scientology — did you even know she was a member?

Perhaps it's because of the continued controversy surrounding the mysterious organization, but we can't remember the last time she spoke about her faith.

The Emmy nominated star broke her silence this week, shortly after vocal critic Leah Remini said she wasn't even allowed to talk to her.

After Moss shared an Instagram pic (above) from an event for her acclaimed series The Handmaid's Tale, a fan with the screen name moelybanks wrote to ask her:
