Fuck, I miss the hell out of this show. It can't come back soon enough. Thursday nights just aren't the same anymore.

Also, I thought that I would help out with locating this GIF

It is from this video. Mission Improbable The "Mission Improbable" starts around the 1:45 mark.

Haha, I was wondering how long it would take someone to make a .gif of that. Kudos!

I thought I had recently read in EW that Community might get resurrected on another cable channel ... ?!?

The show would fit well on USA, if USA was willing to take in a 30 minute comedy.

USA really isn't in the comedy business. I'd say FX would be more suitable in the sense they already have some wacky comedy shows and this might fight right in among them.

fit you mean.

I doubt it, FX's comedies are more edgy and crude...wouldn't fit (although I wouldn't mind if Community joined FX and had more freedom)

Seems like a better fit for IFC, but don't see that happening.

What about Science Channel?

Or KFC could buy the rights and you have to buy a bucket of chicken in order to gain access to the viewing room.

Well it looks like it finally happened... I'm not ratings genius but both Whitney and that other fucking show that follows it got below Community's ratings for its last new episode. That can't be anything but good news for Community.

Not necessarily. If one or both of those shows costs less to produce, then they still could pick it over Community just because it is cheaper. Or they could just cancel them all.

Until they have a comedy show in the air, they aren't in the comedy business.

That's true, but Community is one more season away from having enough episodes for syndication. Even underperforming shows can sell for a pretty penny in syndication. Whitney and the other show are still three to four seasons away (depending on how many episodes they shoot this year).

NBC owns Community. If the ratings off all three of these suck to the point they will only keep one... I like our odds.

Correction. Sony Pictures owns Community. They also own the home video rights. NBC is just a co-producer and has to pay a licensing fee.

But, what your saying is right. If NBC cans Whitney after 22 episodes and Are you there Chelsea after it finishes it's 13, no harm, no foul, and both shows will be forgotten. Community in it's 3rd season can still make money for the studio if it continues on. Plus, the episodes IMO have alot of replay value in syndication.
