Aisha Actress (Nichole Brown) Fired From the Show?

Aisha's actress Nichole Brown said they didn't ask her back for Season 3. She posted that the writers had been unable to fit her into scripts and she was upset because she needed the money.

Honestly, I'm not surprised by this. The writers had no idea what to do with her character. Aisha had way more screentime in Season 1 compared to Season 2 where her character kind of faded to background. She was pretty terrible actress too.

Here's a screen shot of her confirmation

That's a shame , wish it was the actress that plays the daughter Sam !
Not a fan of that character at all !

The actress is very beautiful and a reasonably good actress but she does not really pull off being that good at karate.

What don’t you like about her?

fired or not enough time in the show.

if they will be doing some Okinawa and other guest stars and some major fighting and making up going on then maybe not enough time.

I would assume she might get picked back up if there is season 4.

Not a good thing to act desperate.

Well, in all honesty, there was no need for her character on the show to begin with, so...

Her character was important to a few plot points involving Sam and Miguel.

I am sad to see her go.

[–] Iffy762 (1334) 4 years ago

Me too. She was a minor character who didn't have independent storylines anyway, so I don't understand why they couldn't work her into the show along with the other kids who are just in one or other of the dojos. How are they going to explain her absence going forward? Her friendship with Sam is not exactly resolved.

That's sucks. I liked her character.

Disappointing because she was another character who was in an interesting position at the end of season 2. She and Miguel were the only Cobra Kai's who didn't buy into Kreese, and she was fiercely loyal to Johnny. So I don't see her staying with CK. Which means they will all turn on her now, including Tory who she was friendly with. And will Sam be willing to forgive her and be friends again? And if there is a Myagi Dojo in the future, will they let her in, and who will she feel about Robby.

I have a feeling it will be stated that her parents were freaked out by the rumble, and pulled her out of that school and into a private one, and no longer want her going to Cobra Kai.

I'll go ahead and pat myself on the back for this prediction.

I can perhaps understand them reducing her role but it seems weird that she would be the only major supporting character to be written out entirely. Too bad it wasn't Demetri who got the axe. *ugh*

I mean, all we would get from her character is fat shaming and pity. Gets tiring after a while.

Let's not forget the reverse wedgie.

I don't know why this is an issue - she's not said she's fired, all she wrote she's not in season 3 which she cant earn money to be an extra, which is understandable if there will be alot going on - she'll be back for season 4, her character doesn't have a pivotal role.
