I can say I was not expecting them to leave the show. I really want to know the actual reason behind this, it sounded like before he was banking on being the new "leader" as to speak for the farm. It doesn't seem possible to run the farm and not be on the show. Very interesting turn of events. I guess he's no longer interested in the farm? I can't say I'll miss them, more screen time for T and Z and baby J.
