It's funny that Annie's Boobs show got cancelled. It's sad that it didn't get replaced with Community.
I don't think anyone ever realistically thought NBC would order more episodes. They're doing just enough to have the normal amount of episodes for network syndication. I don't see why NBC would keep any of it's current Thursday night comedies. Last night was another night of horrendous ratings for all the shows. Great comedies, terrible ratings. I hate my fellow viewers.

Definitely. It proved that the show has a life of its own, and when October 19th finally gets here, we'll be in for a ride.
COME ON OCTOBER 19TH!!!
huh.. to me it was the actors basically telling me that the show will be cancelled.
I just have to echo this. It definitely feels like Community. Gives me a lot of hope for S4.

It's already been filmed. (I assume at least the first bunch) They just need to air them when they find a damn spot to put October 19th on the schedule. Yet Tuesday night is getting two new shows that look pretty meh and horrible. They'd rather spend money on new pilots in hopes of finding gold than air a show they know will already have somewhat of an audience.
NBC, ladies and gentlemen!
Having a bunch of episodes filmed does not mean they will ALL be aired.

It'd be amazing if they just shelved these 13 eps and never released them to the public.

Six seasons and a spinoff starring Annie's Boobs. The monkey. Not Annie's boobs. Or maybe both.

IIRC the only reason they're going through with this after Harmon's firing is that the amount of episodes is close enough for the show to be qualified for syndication. It'd be in NBC's interest to just get the episode count to at least the required number (I think it's 80? 90? I don't remember) since it'd bring cash for NBC in the long run when they syndicate the show.
Please let me know if any of what I just said makes sense or if it's just a bunch of garbage.

This is great. I can't wait for the new episodes...whenever that will be.
I mean, it will be canceled. that's been my outlook since like, mid-season 2. take every new episode as a damn miracle.
and anyway, I didn't think that was really the message of the promo. all it said to me was that they're uncertain of when they'll air, but they will air. simple as that.
agreed for the most part. the one line that I really couldn't get past was jeff admonishing annie and annie responding that she was a sometimes host of the T&A in the morning. was weirdly stilted. at the same time, I could see that being in an actual community episode. so I guess it's fine.
well, the one distinction is that NBC doesn't own Community. Sony produces it. so Sony'll get the money when it's syndicated. It's in Sony's interest to make the show cheaper to NBC, which they did

Ah yeah that's one thing I mixed up. It's Sony, not NBC.
Community is a co-produciton with UniversalTV (NBC's production arm) and Sony TV.

How incredibly lame that Sony produces the show but cant be bothered to release it on Bluray. Stop being so Sony, Sony.
Well then nevermind

Last two episodes of undercovers were never aired....
NBC just cancelled a sitcom due to air in january.....which will probably never air....
NBC created an amazing television show called Day One, then condensed it to 4 episode miniseries, then condensed it to a movie.....
And then never aired it.
Be careful.
Well the (huge) difference here is that community has an established, publicized, hyper-active and attentive fanbase. Something none of the shows you listed had
Community s4 will air
Sony will just put them out on DVD if nothing else.
The Britta in that promo seemed to be the pre-Britta'd Britta

Yep, boring instead of stupid and boring.

I'd like that Britta back.
Yeah, I really did like the promo. Like a lot. It was reminiscent of Season 2 where things were wacky but not too crazy and filled with caricatures of their former selves. If the rest of the season is like that, I will love it. But...I know it isn't seeing how outrageous the very first episode is.

That promo made me miss the show for the first time.
It's a Hunger Games parody, apparently.

Chevy Chase Has Racially Charged Tirade On The Set Of ‘Community’

Really seems like a non issue Post-Word Association.

Pretty obvious it wasnt a racist rant, not sure why they would imply it might be.

God forbid he has to play a flawed character! No, this will not do for King Chase. I do hope they're not driving the character too far, but really, Pierce has always been like that. If he had problems with the script, why wouldn't he say something before getting on set?

He was mad because his character was coming off as TOO racist. So it was an anti-racist rant, lol. But yeah he should just shut up and fucking do his job.
Uhh...

what? I think he should just shut up and do his job. I don't understand what you're getting at here.
Something about jumping off a bridge if someone told you to, etc.

Ok but he is an actor. Pierce has always been a racist character. It's a comedy show. Also Chevy has a history of raging and being a dick on set. Just do it bro.
Then don't hire Chevy. Bigoted character or not, you are going to have limits.

Pierce was supposed to have become a better person by the end of season 3, and if they really are having him use that word, then Chevy has every right to be mad.
They're not having him use that word. He was overreacting to one of his storylines.
Sometimes a network tell you who to hire. This was one of those situations.

Oh damn I read the story wrong, didn't realize the website was just jumping to conclusions. Still, we don't know the whole story. They could be taking his character too far once again and ignoring prior character developments, or Chevy is being a dick again.
It's the latter. But like most things, it's an overreaction of actors being actors.

It's the latter.
