Ausiello Exclusive
Looks like Numbers will be minus its female star when it returns next fall.
Sources confirm to me exclusively that Diane Farr has opted not to renew her contract and will leave the CBS procedural later this season. Farr joined Numbers in 2005, filling the void left by Sabrina Lloyd. Prior to that, she spent two seasons lugging around heavy equipment and making goo-goo eyes at Daniel Sunjata on FX's Rescue Me.
There's no word on how her character, G-woman Megan Reeves, will be written out, or in which of this season's six remaining episodes she will last appear. In what could be a clue, Megan's on-again/off-again romance with Peter MacNicol's Larry is expected to heat up as the season winds down. Perhaps they'll head off into the sunset together?
Producers, meanwhile, are already searching for Farr's replacement. On Monday, Numbers began casting the role of Nikki Donati, a 27- to 35-year-old ex-LAPD officer who joins the FBI in search of a "bigger and badder" challenge. She's described as a full-blown adrenaline junkie whose gritty street perspective makes her a great foil for her boss.
Now, help me out with this math problem: Farr Numbers = What? A sucky development? A fantastic opportunity to reenergize the show with some new blood? The worst thing to happen to Peter MacNicol since the final season of Ally McBeal? Crunch the Numbers and post the results below! -

i have to admit, I didn't like Diane's character when she was first brought on, because I liked Sabrina Lloyd's character. After a couple seasons, I've come to like the Reeves character, so it will be a bit sad to see her go.
I did notice her distant behavior in the first new episode after the strike and it got me wondering if she was going to leave the show.
I'd hate to see Larry leave the show, so hopefully they won't ride off into the sunset. -

Recent TV Guide says she will appear in 3 more episodes of Numb3rs. And is it just me or is she looking pregnant again. In Fri night's episode I thought so. If she's gone from the show, no big deal, but I certainly hope they find someone better than the string of women that have been Don's love interest. They were awful. Maybe I don't like a lot of change - but why not try to bring back Sabrina Lloyd - I thought she and Morrow's characters were good together.

I actually like her and liked her when she was in Rescue Me.
Can't anyone see why she is leaving? She is PREG. Again. The beginning of the season trim and always showing her waist and FULL body viewlast 2 episodes she was inalways something hiding her belly
