Why was Flynn Morrison “Boyd” Replaced in the Last Man Standing? 

Joining the show in 2012 and being the main cast for over 4 seasons, the replacement of Boyd came as shock to the fanbase. Most of them were confused about why Flynn was replaced in the first place.

However, things came to light that it was not the production team but the actor himself who decided to opt out of the show. Alongside, Flynn actress Molly Ephraim also left the show for a role in another movie The Front Runner which was about former U.S. Presidential candidate Gary Hart.

Yet there were no specific reasons disclosed from Flynn’s side regarding why he chose not to return. On the other hand, the writers also took it in a good way as they cast Jet Jurgensmeyer. Since in the 7th season Boyd’s character was in his teenage years, the team thought Jet would be a good call to age up the character and storyline.
