Seeing any favorite actor leave a popular show can be devastating for fans. Among the most shocking exits in TV history were Patrick Dempsey and Sandra Oh of "Grey's Anatomy," Mark Harmon of "NCIS," Steve Carell of "The Office," Nina Dobrev of "The Vampire Diaries," and Shannen Doherty of "Charmed." Hallmark Channel loyalists were understandably dismayed when both Candace Cameron Bure and Danica McKellar jumped ship for the Great American Family channel, but which exit was the more surprising? The Hallmark Channel Fans Facebook page posed that question to its 80,000 followers recently.

The question got more than 500 responses. Many cried "both," with some adding comments like, "I love them both. Totally understand why they left." However, the fans who expressed a particular choice leaned toward McKellar as being the bigger shock. One wrote, "I love both actresses, but was more surprised that Danica exited Hallmark." Another agreed, "I thought Danica was a Hallmark lifer, but I understand that opportunities to grow in your craft and expand your portfolio are huge and you have to go where those opportunities lead you." Bure's exit did blindside a few followers. "Both great actresses but was more surprised by Candace's exit," said a fan. Echoed another, "Candace, miss her, still watching her reruns."

A smaller percentage of respondents had a different opinion altogether. "Won't miss either of them. They were not my favorites," declared one. Another was just exasperated: "Why do we keep bringing this up?? It's over and done...Let it go!"
