Community Gets a Mid-Season Snub
Earlier today, NBC decided to tout their new mid-season lineup. Rather than the awkward sound of crickets or the occasional tumbleweed associated with such an announcement from the fourth-place network, my twitter-feed exploded with the hash tag #savegreendale. I immediately re-examined the press release only to discover that, sure enough, Community was nowhere to be found. As you can imagine, I freaked out. It’s only natural, after all, it’s one of the few NBC sitcoms I still enjoy on a regular basis. Thankfully, it turns out the show isn’t cancelled, per se. It’s just “on the bubble,” so they’re just thinking about it. So, what can you do to save it?
Just make sure to let NBC know you’re not happy with the decision — twitter works. The old time slot will be filled by Up All Night, but try not to hold the move against it. If anything, avoiding Whitney would be a better decision as it’s not funny or remotely original in any sense of the word. That said, at least there’s The Big Bang Theory to fall back on should Up All Night fail to charm. And finally, let’s that we’ll see the latter half of Community‘s third season this summer. Otherwise, feel free to cut along the dotted line below.
