Neal McDonough… was suddenly replaced with David James Elliott 3 days into the filming on ABC’s new series Scoundrels earlier this week….
The move was officially explained as a casting change. But, in fact, McDonough was sacked because of his refusal to do some heated love scenes with… [lead actress] Virginia Madsen. The reason? He’s a family man and a Catholic, and he’s always made it clear that he won’t do sex scenes….

ABC knew that. Because he also didn’t get into action with Nicolette Sheridan on the network’s Desperate Housewives…. And he also didn’t do love scenes with his on-air girlfriend in his previous series, NBC’s Boomtown, or that network’s Medical Investigation.
“It has cost him jobs, but the man is sticking to his principles,” a source explained to me. You can’t help but admire McDonough for sticking to his beliefs….
