Rashida Jones is looking back at her time on The Office.
The 49-year-old actress joined the NBC comedy in season three as Karen Filippelli, a love interest for John Krasinki's Jim. She had a heavily recurring role in that season, and returned a few more times in seasons four, five and seven.
During a recent appearance on the Good Hang podcast with her Parks and Rec co-star Amy Poehler, Rashida reflected on being let go from The Office.

"I had done a year on The Office and they let me go, which made sense. It made sense," she said.
Amy reacted, "You had such a tough job there, because everybody wanted Jim and Pam (Jenna Fischer), and then guess who shows up? A very likable, cool... and everyone was like, 'Oh no, wait.'"
"It did not feel that way," Rashida chimed in. "People did not like me. Like, fans were not about it."
There is a new The Office spinoff in the works and an actor from the original is set to reprise his character!
If you missed it, Rashida will next be seen on the small screen in the upcoming seventh season of Black Mirror, which is premiering in just a couple weeks.
