There was no farewell episode. An amicable split would look very different. We'd have a goodbye episode filled with virgil's best clips, brie & virgil would be on as guests pitching their show, etc. Instead there's just a soulless press release? Something happened!

Someone mentioned a reason on twitter, but deleted it after 30 minutes as it was potentially embarrassing:

The best explanation I've found is this one form reddit :

I think he had a falling out with Will, to be honest. When he "returned," he thanked Will for having him on, which was weird, and at some point he made a weird joke about Will when he wasn't there. Will cracked a joke about, "not being allowed to get mad" at Virgil. Anyway... really weird shit. I definitely don't believe the whole, "it was amicable," angle. Something happened.

Anyone here have any info?
