Season 1 - Episode information and ratings

Hope this is on at a reasonable time for me. The clip was hilarious!! Chevy Case should be great in this.

Does nobody watch this show? I love it...great cast.

I watch it! The show is in my top tier of comedies right now. I think the show is brilliant and the writing and directing are phenomenal. I agree about the great cast - it's so diverse too.

Did you see the last episode with the blanket forts...and then the blanket fort chase! Genius!!

I would love to talk about this show more here but I thought I was the only one who watched it. LOL

Bob Greenblatt renewed it!! THANK YOU!!! Glad to see Bob Greenblatt rewarding a smart, witty, and quality show like Community.

NBC Press Release

“I am so pleased to renew these three outstanding comedies which are all at the top of their game creatively,” said Greenblatt. “Along with ’30 Rock,’ they represent the best of what the NBC comedy brand stands for in terms of originality, wit, and sophistication. ‘The Office’ continues to fire on all cylinders on the most competitive night of television; ‘Parks & Recreation’ has come into its own this season as the rightful companion to ‘The Office’; and ‘Community’ is one of the freshest comedies on any network and a solid foundation for Thursday night.”

I haven't tried this show yet, but I have been watching and absolutely loving Parks & Recreation lately. On the other hand, I hate that they are wasting time with The Office.

I tried the show the first season and hated it. I tried to give it a second chance this year and it hasnt gotten much better.

Ditto on the Parks love. Best show on the network

I tried my best to stay away from Parks because I don't really like Amy Poehler and I heard the first season was crap, but I'm glad I did. And just as I thought, Poehler is the worst part of the show. But I count my lucky stars that Adam Scott is on this show I've loved him for awhile now so that was a nice surprise.

The "Law & Order" and Pillow & Blankets documentary episodes were brilliant! I just love the writing, directing and cinematography on this show.

So apparently it is coming back next season to air on Friday. Those NBC executives really are genuises.

More than you know. They fired Dan Harmon as showrunner.

The fans are losing their [!@#$%^&*]. "Dan Harmon" is trending on Twitter.

Happy Endings? That means a lot of people who can't play comedy overdoing "wacky" and "cool" laugh lines to try to hide it.

TPTB have no idea how savvy the average viewer has become. They don't expect them either to know or care who runs a given show, but they really have no clue how short-sighted they are in that department.

Wait, "Chris McKenna." Where do I know that name?

Didn't he used to play Joey on ONE LIFE TO LIVE.

Yes, he did (the only real Joey).

He was on 90210 last year apparently.

Actually the networks are absolutely right on this one. Millions of people watch and most of them never bother to go on the Internet to follow the background drama on any tv show. The Internet gives the illusion that there huge fandoms when it is really a few people with different pseudonyms on various boards chatting with each other.
