“The news about Rob and Rashida is true -- they will be leaving the show after the 13th episode of the upcoming season six. We've been working on their storyline (on and off) for four seasons now, and heading into this year, with the two of them contemplating parenthood, it felt like a natural time to move them into the next phase.
We absolutely love both Rashida and Rob, and will be sad to see them go. Rashida was one of the very first people we knew we wanted in the cast, and as important as Ann is to Leslie (and vice-versa), she'll certainly never be far from Pawnee. Rob we initially thought we could only have for six or eight episodes, and we couldn't be happier that he will have stuck around for 75.
They are wonderful, funny, committed actors, they've been a huge part of the Parks and Rec family, and we think we have a great Pawnee send-off in the works for them.”

So basically, Ann's going to get knocked up, and she and Chris are going to go off somewhere to raise the baby.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they'll move next door to Mark Brendanawicz.
ReplyDeleteBoo! Hiss!
ReplyDeleteId get used to Chris going but Ann... she was there from the beginning it just wont be the same =/
ReplyDeleteNooooooo
ReplyDeleteSniffles, I trust it will be a great send off, I hope that when Parks ends one day they both come back
ReplyDeletefor some reason, I usually like when characters "move on" during a series run. Maybe it's because it shakes ups the dynamics or maybe it's because in real life that sort of thing does happen, but its one of those things I'm all for
ReplyDeleteI don't know how Leslie will cope with not having her best friend in the show.
ReplyDeleteChris will be offered a big job, but doesn't want to move away from the baby. Ann agrees to move away after a big talk with Leslie.
ReplyDeleteThough Mike saying "she'll certainly never be far from Pawnee" sounds like Leslie's BFF will pop in for a guest spot every now and again.
