'Community' Season 5 to 2014, Plus NBC Fall Schedule Announcement!

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Mon, 13 May 2013 00:48:21 +0000

We'd be hard pressed to say who had the most brutal of cancellations and fruitful pickups between the five major networks this weekend, but few would offer that NBC had any undeserved ends. Even so, the peacock has become the first among the five to set its major schedule, moving 'Revolution' and 'Parenthood' to new nights, scheduling Jonathan Rhys-Meyers 'Dracula' for fall and moving 'Community' and more to midseason!

Streets ahead? Streets behind? Just plain streets? Any loyal 'Community' fan knows that for as long as the series has aired on NBC, series star Chevy Chase has had a public distaste for its brand of humor, his character Pierce Hawthorne, and particularly former show-runner Dan Harmon.

Streets behind! For those of us anxiously awaiting the fourth season of NBC's 'Community,' and the first under new show-runners Moses Port and David Gurarascio, the wait just got a little longer. Details are still pouring in, but it seems NBC has reneged on its plans to premiere both 'Community' season 4 and 'Whitney' season 2 on October 19, potentially taking either comedy off of Friday as well. But why would NBC make such a last-minute change, and when will we get our beloved 'Community?'
