Against all odds, the plucky bunch at Greendale Community College will be back for their sixth season, keeping alive the “six seasons and movie” hope of Community fans everywhere. An epic trailer (Community does no other sort) for the new season has released. Community will air on Yahoo Screen. No premiere date has been set, but “look for it soon”.
Yahoo and Sony Pictures Television today announced that “Community” will return this fall for a highly-anticipated sixth season, with 13 new episodes available exclusively on Yahoo Screen.
Dan Harmon created “Community” and serves as executive producer. Russ Krasnoff (“The Soloist”) also serves as executive producer, along with Gary Foster (Sleepless in Seattle) and Chris McKenna (“The Mindy Project”).
“I am very pleased that ‘Community’ will be returning for its predestined sixth season on Yahoo,” comments Dan Harmon. “I look forward to bringing our beloved NBC sitcom to a larger audience by moving it online. I vow to dominate our new competition. Rest easy, ‘Big Bang Theory.’ Look out, Bang Bus!”

This was tough. Naturally, I drifted toward the most brilliant episode of any comedy in recent years: The Paintball War. That, really, is more of a whole episode of awesome rather than a single moment. Back when this was just a show about a community college, the break out moments were always the 30 seconds of credits where Troy and Abed would do something completely random and hysterical. The best of these…ladies and gentlemen….THE DISCO SPIDER RAP!
I’m not sure which is more surprising: that NBC renewed Community for a fifth season, that it’s continuing without Chevy Chase or that (and this is probably it) that NBC swallowed their peacock-sized pride and hired Dan Harmon back to run the show.

It seems like only yesterday that I was writing absurdly long articles speculating on pilots on what would and what would not be canceled (it was two months ago). The CW announced their return dates, but because they make me (with the exception of Arrow) giggle, I just Tweeted that one out so if you’re not following the Twitter stream, you missed out. NBC has some promising pilots and they could sure use them. The once proud peacock has fallen to fourth place among the major networks. Personally, I watch Parks & Recreation, Parenthood and I will return to Community since Dan Harmon is descending from the heavens to save us who languished in his absence. The new shows? Who knows? There’s some promising premises. Maybe we’ll get some new blood this year.
