Ever since Season 2 of Kevin Can Wait premiered in late September, fans have wondered one thing: How did the wife die? Turns out, we don't really know. And after many more episodes of the CBS series, we still have no clue. We're just hoping we get more insight on Donna Gable's untimely death at some point this season. In the season's second episode, we saw Kevin Gable (played by Kevin James) trying to be a super dad by packing his kids' lunches and making sure he had them prepared for all their after-school activities. After Jack and Sara told their older sister, Kendra, that Kevin was acting a little over-the-top, she had a talk with him where she mentioned her mom's passing but didn't give any information as to how she died. Vanessa (portrayed by Leah Remini) also mentioned to Kevin that he lost his wife, Donna (played by Erinn Hayes...

If the producers of Kevin Can Wait hoped that firing Erinn Hayes and hiring Leah Remini would generate excitement among fans, they've got to be disappointed. Not only have ratings for the series not improved since the changes were made, they've actually declined steadily over the first three episodes of the season.

While one supporting actor on the series claims that the ouster of Hayes was planned all along, star Kevin James has admitted the producers made the change because they were "out of ideas" for the series. It's an extremely bad sign when producers are out of ideas for a series before the first season is even over.

It's not personal, it's the business of comedy... Kevin Can Wait has been making headlines ever since producers killed off Kevin James' current TV wife Erinn Hayes for his one-time TV wife Leah Remini. And now one of the show's cast members, Chris Roach, who plays Mott on CBS' sitcom, says that after he saw the former King of Queens stars play off each other, he understood what all the fuss was about. In an interview with Chanel Omari on StarShop on Monday, Roach said that everyone on set was talking about Remini and James' onscreen connection and that the first time he saw James with Remini, who appeared on season one as a guest star, he was floored.
