It depends upon contracts between the actors and the studios. Both
Suzanne Somers (Three's Company) and Farrah Fawcett-Majors
(Charlie's Angels) challenged their contracts and were forced into
almost-cameo shots while other actors were hired to fill their places
(Jennilee Harrison and Priscilla Barnes in Three's Company, and
Cheryl Ladd in Charlie's Angels).

As for more modern shows, Mandy was one of the major
characters of the West Wing, and she disappeared at the
end of the first season.
