This is disappointing.

Yeah I agree. I wonder why he wants to leave the show?

Maybe mostly due to his crazy schedule. He is in many upcoming movies and has a TV show. He also has to think of his future and right now he is in demand which may change in another year.

Here's to hoping they advance the plot at all. Love the jokes, love the characters, love the satire, but really wish they would stop resetting the plot to square one every few episodes.

You could skip the first three seasons and not really miss anything plot wise.

Its a character-driven satire. The plot is ancillary.

The plot is always an important part of any show.

It doesn't worry me much with SV, it's The Walking Dead and Falling Skies really need to get moving, watching them feels more like a chore these days.
