American Housewife is dealing with the biggest casting shakeup of the season. The ABC sitcom lost Julia Butters, the beloved 11-year-old actress who played Anna-Kat Otto. After receiving acclaim for her scene-stealing performance in director Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Butters has received all kinds of offers, so she left the series to pursue them.
Actress Giselle Eisenberg, 13, is taking on the role in the half-hour comedy’s fifth season. While Eisenberg is doing a fine job, many viewers are still getting used to the change. Especially after her OUATIH role, Butters’ supporters were eager to see more of her work going forward. Scroll through to see some of the kind messages American Housewife fans have sent Butters.

She’s not bad, but it’s definitely going to take some getting used to. Julia Butters played Anna Kat to perfection, I loved her. But I’m still so happy the show is back.
