WTH?! I thought he did a great job.
This sucks! The show was looking so good, and moving to Thursdays looked like a bold move.
Sure this may not be a HUGE lost (like as if Peter,Walter or Olivia would leave), but losing a key member of the cast can be dangerous for momentum.

It won’t matter. Fox put “Fringe” in the death slot on Thursday nights so it will get cancelled soon anyway. Shame, its such a good show too.
Too bad, this show had all the momentum!

I can’t say Charlie really contributed much to the show, so this isn’t a big loss. Still, getting fired always sucks. Maybe they’ll bring in a more interesting character to replace him.

It was actually reported here first

If you look at your like you will see they even quote them.
Do you do any research yourself?
What?
NOOOO! I love him!
Actually, SpoilerTV first broke the news, not the blog you mentioned. And this truly sucks.

Are you frakking kidding me???
Ausiello you must get to the bottom of this ASAP!!
Agent Francis was crucial to the show! one of the reasons I watched, this is f-up to say the least. I’m not happy.
Are you kidding me? This is so wrong in so many levels! Charlie Francis was crucial to the show and a key cast member?
I’m not happy.
What?! Why would they do that? I love Charlie! First, they move the show to Thursday nights and now they’ve fired one of my favorite actors on the show. This sucks. How are they even going to explain his absence?
Well, that’s a classy way to go. Too bad, I really liked his character.
