The Bad News Is The Good News

Today was supposed to be the return of Community.   It was scheduled for Friday nights at 8:30, a graveyard slot where it would presumably play out its 13 episodes and then go away forever.  Still, a little Community is better than none.

But a few weeks ago NBC decided to hold off on the Friday death march.  Instead, it's holding back on new Community (as well as Whitney as if anyone cares), ready to use it for mid-season replacement.  While this mean no Community for a while--and while this is still probably its last season--at least it offers hope that NBC thinks it can be featured on a good night like Monday or Wednesday.  Maybe it'll get passable numbers (they don't ask for a lot at NBC) and be picked up for another season.

So keep it up Greendale.  Be seeing you soon.
