I've just recently got into Community and love it! I hate that I've overlooked such a great show for so long but is this going to be its last season?
I hope not... I've just found it and am nowhere near ready to say goodbye.

NBC has to be the worst network ever when it comes to managing their shows. My goodness - Grimm already has a good following on Friday...WHY would they move it to Mondays in the summer and then Fridays in the fall?
And why not give the struggling shows the summer Olympics boost? Like Community, 30 Rock, Up All Night?
It's like they're TRYING to screw all their shows over.
