Community also has two: "with Ken Jeong and Chevy Chase. Cosby Jr. When Gibson also left the show, returning regular Paget Brewster took his "And" place at the end. Damages has this in every season. Ted Danson again gets an "and" in season 3 episodes he appears in. The other cast members simply get their names.

The original opening was reinstated for the series finale, when Angela Bassett got the "and" credit.
Debrah Farentino got one of these credits in the short-lived yet critically acclaimed EZ Streets. Family Matters , initially gave this position to Telma Hopkins as Aunt Rachel; after her departure, the slot remained vacant for a few seasons, even though Jaleel White as Steve Urkel was so obviously the Breakout Character.

Recently, it was rumored that Chandra Wilson would inherit the "with", as her character is arguably the best-loved on the show, but it seems that for now, things will stay the way they are.
