I have a slightly different take on it I think. I feel like quitting to be a stay at home mom, while a perfectly valid choice, in JJ's case would diminish the character. The baby was unexpected in her "storyline" and she's been presented as a go-getter with a team sports past. She loves her job. For me, with this character, leaving her career behind would be the cop out. While an overseas job would be an easy out, I'm better with that than the two other options we've discussed.
Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

I wonder why they couldn't have just had her decide to take a less active role - possibly not in the field while the baby was so young.
That seems like a realistic decision that somebody might make.

I'm not sure that meets their goal of replacing her with someone new and cheaper.

Well, it could involve changing to a different team - given that any one position isn't necessarily open in any given team, you know?

I just read that Janeane Garofalo will join the cast of the Criminal Minds spin off. WTF?
Of course, the first time I read it, I didn't see "spin off".

I love Janeane Garofalo, but that is odd.
