NBC entertainment chief Bob Greenblatt on Friday kicked off the broadcast networks’ segment of the Television Critics Association winter press tour in Pasadena by fielding questions about Community‘s MIA status from the midseason schedule, and questions about the acclaimed if undersampled comedy’s long-term fate.
First and foremost, Greenblatt made clear that Community “has not been cancelled,” and will return to the lineup at a to-be-determined date this spring.
“When I announced our midseason changes last fall and took Community off the schedule, I failed to explicitly say that it would be back,” he explained. “I want to expel any notion that it is just disappearing off the schedule.”
For now, it remains unclear where exactly where our friends at Greendale will call home when they return to the lineup. “Community was moved to 8 o’clock a couple of years ago, and that’s an incredibly competitive time slot now on Thursday,” Greenblatt said, candidly. “I’m really curious to see what something else will do there. We have a really tight schedule with comedies [so it's] really going to be a matter of looking at what happens with the six comedies we’ve got at midseason.”
As for any Season 4 prospects for Community, Greenblatt says it’s far too soon to tell. “We’re just going to look at the success of what pilots yield, what the scheduling needs are and make that decision closer to the upfront [in May].”
