NBC Midseason Line-Up Shocker! Community Shelved!

Ugh! We are blaming Whitney for this nonsense!
Although Community is arguably one of the best-written, funniest comedies on television, NBC pulled one hell of a switch-up for its mid-season schedule, which has left the series SHELVED indefinitely!
Starting Thursday, January 12th, 30 Rock will take its place in the 8pm time slot, while Up All Night will move to Whitney's spot at 9:30pm. That mess will instead be moved to Wednesdays at 8pm, to be followed by the equally disastrous-looking Are You There, Chelsea, formerly titled Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea.
Oh yeah, and that Maria Bello Prime Suspect show is gone, too. Back to Community, though -
The cast and crew seem to be just as shocked as everyone by the change, and HIGHlariously took to Twitter to discuss!
Executive producer Neil Goldman wrote:
Midseason schedule burn!
To which series creator Dan Harmon replied:
Streets Ahold! RT @neilskee Midseason schedule burn!
Followed by Alison Brie:
Troy and Abed in the…summer?? RT @danharmon: Streets Ahold! RT @neilskee Midseason schedule burn!
And nicely wrapped up by Joel McHale:
Horsebot 3000 Nooooo! RT @alisonbrie: Troy & Abed in the…Summer?? RT @danharmon: Streets Ahold! RT @neilskee Midseason schedule burn!
We're sorry, but this is absolutely effing STOOPID.
Does NBC REALLY want an Arrested Development situation on its hands now?
Ugh! Best case scenario, Whitney and Chelsea can die off together with relative speed and ease on Wednesdays, and Community can reclaim its rightful throne on the NBC line-up!
Finger's crossed!

whitney is fucking hilarious so screw you
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Whitney. I've never seen Community. Obviously NBC doesn't care for your opinion.
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! WTF NBC????? COME ON!
Noooooooooooooooooooooo! I LOVE this show. It is smart, funny and the cast is amazing!
Whitney is straight up garbage. Community's writing wasn't as good this season, but I still think NBC should let the full 3rd season run its course.
I love community! They aren't even good actors in Whitney.
Ok kiddos, I know it's probably really difficult for someone that believes "Whitney" is a clever and insightful show to understand this but here it goes… Community has cult like following, it has characters that have evolved from season to season making it possible for the viewer to develop interest, and most importantly, it is clever. Clever is not something seen on television anymore because we now live in a country where mediocrity is accepted. Not here, not now, never will I accept a mediocre comedy show on my tv. Suck it "Whitney" fans.
whitney is aaaaaaawwwwwwwfffffffuuuuuuulllllll….it is so painful to watch! i accidentally watched and was embarassed for them..
are their really whitney fans???
1. this sucks. community is SO funny.
2. stop slammin on chelsea handler, perez. the show hasnt even aired.
Thank God! This was the dumbest show on the planet!
Before everyone starts thinking the worst, just know that the show has not been canceled yet. This happens a lot in primetime. The network simply had to make room for all of their new comedies. Community will be back to air its episodes and still very well may get a 4th season since syndication is so close. The same thing has and is happening to Cougartown on ABC, and no one thinks that show is going away. The best thing you can do to help Community is to either write to NBC or just hope that one or more of NBC's new comedies does miserably this year. Here's hoping.
WTF!!!! One of tws on tv and they do this to it??????? WTF WTF WTF???
Re: CCLCC – your statement makes no sense since the super awesome insightful show with a cult like following that you love so much is clearly not doing as well as you think. if you dont like whitney dont watch it, but i sure as hell will
Re: mw – there*
Re: vuwildcat – agreed, perez is a dick
WHAT ABOUT PARKS & REC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU NBC!!!!!
Of course! That's all the networks due. Not popular enough? CANCEL?
CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL
Why even bother having tv anymore?
Let's just cancel TV and go back to staring at nothing .
FINALLY! that show sucked. but i have abandoned NBC on thursday evenings since 30 rock hasn't been on the air.
Whitney sucks. i tried watching 3 times and it was just plain painful. i'd rather give pedicures to convicts than watch that crap! Community rules!
Whitney sucks. She's not funny!
Community is the ONLY comedy on NBC that is actually funny.
Whitney is NOT funny and I wonder who did she blow to get that gig.
I'm not surprised about "Prime Suspect". It wasn't a good version of the GREAT British version staring Dame Helen Mirren.
.
If they cancel Community, I'm done with NBC. Okay, if they cancel GRIMM, I'm done with NBC.
community has been getting weirder and worse with each episode.
whitney is a good comedy that doesnt take itself seriously. i watch whitney over community every week. and yes i used to watch community from the beginning then it started sucking. and when you put your support behind something people tend to go the other way just because your such an idiot.
Re: love2hateperezite – Though I'm really hoping Community survives this, I'm curious as to what you suggest the networks do instead of canceling a show that isn't popular. Can you explain your logic to me?
I never watched "Community" but I will say I actually agree with you on "Whitney". I watched the first episode and it's just God awful. The acting is atrocious and the jokes just fall flat ("I didn't need to be CC'ed on THAT one"…really?!?). I would give Laura Prepon a chance as she's a great actress and at least wait until it airs to give your opinion on it.
Fuck NBC. No reason to watch it now.
hahaha remember how you were only on Chelsea Lately twice because Chelsea probably realized she hates you? And how you brought her flowers on the show in some attempt to kiss her ass and she threw them on the ground? HAHAHA
