The crime drama has been forced to pivot in its current third season, following the death of male lead Adan Canto in January after a battle with appendiceal cancer. Because the show’s writers had initially hoped to bring Canto back later in Season 3 after he’d completed treatment, his character, Arman Morales, was initially kidnapped in the season premiere and left offscreen, whereabouts unknown, for several episodes. Ultimately, in the season’s sixth outing , Arman briefly returned (via CGI trickery) to be brought home by his captors, but he perished when the vehicle transporting him swerved and fell off a cliff.

New episodes of The Cleaning Lady currently air Tuesdays at 8/7c on Fox. Our 2024 Renewal Scorecard has been updated with its Season 4 pickup.
