Community Put on Hiatus for Midseason

Courtesy NBC

NBC announced their midseason schedule today, and notably absent was critically and viewer acclaimed Community. As many know, shows not returning for their mid-season runs are nearly a sure sign of cancellation, especially when the show constantly does poorly in the ratings.

Like many shows before it, Community might finally succumb to the fact that it’s just too smart of a show for normal television. The humor too too well written and too funny for the general audience, whom seeks a much lower and simpler form of humor.

The internet though, still steaming after 2010′s Late Night Wars debacle, has already taken to the web to voice their disapproval. #OccupyNBC has already started to crop up. The best way though would be to write a sternly written note to NBC via their contact forms and be sure to voice it out to their Twitter.

Agent Lori continues to fill the one thing about Hawaii Five-0 that was missing last season. I can’t really quantify it, but it’s absolutely true. Also, Bill Gates would be proud of the surface magnetic card reader.

Two Broke Girls gives us Max and Caroline in bed together again covered in whip cream.

Two and a Half Men uses Alan’s hospitalization to redecorate the house, which is pretty cool now.

Weekend Wrap Up – November 13

Community features another hilarious episode and Jeff’s hospital lie to get out of helping is brilliant in execution. Why didn’t Annie remember that Troy and Abed only live in single bedroom apartment? Unfortunately, I was out of town so I didn’t get to experience #AnniesMove on Twitter in realtime, which they seem to have really blown up on. Curiously, though, it seems like they built out a lot of the actual apartment to justify a lot of steady cam work. And for the young ones, the Dreamatorium is completely decorated exactly like the Star Trek holodecks, while candy cigarettes were an old and hilariously bad product that was banned a long long time ago.
