Community, Olivia Colman, and a round of canceled/renewed.

I am OVER THE MOON that Community is getting a fifth season. I don't even care who sacrificed what to which deity to get that, but I'm very glad.

Read this article on Olivia Colman to see how amazing she is (and if you haven't already, watch BROADCHURCH by any means necessary): Olivia Colman is compassionate, wickedly funny and insanely talented

I'm sad to see Go On go; I was fond of a few characters, but could never remember when it was on.

I have mixed feelings about Community being renewed, after last season's shows. I hope the writers will be able to find some fresh ideas and ways to use this fantastic cast and their characters.

That was the therapy one, right? I watched half an ep and thought "hey, this isn't THAT bad." Which is unusual for me as I generally loathe sitcoms of all stripes. (Barring Community).

I'm glad that there is a CHANCE for Community to come back stronger than ever. And I'll be curious to see how they attempt it. I liked this season in spite of itself, but I'm easily amused by the cast.

I saw Broadchurch and thought her performance was awesome, and saw Olivia Colman the other night on Graham Norton and thought she was ADORABLE.

[alizarin_nyc]

YES RIGHT? She stole much of Broadchurch right out from under David Tennant. I have to check out the Graham Norton bit.

First part (one of three) is here! :)

There's a history of canceled shows being picked up by another network--maybe Hannibal could go to The Food Channel.

HAHAHAHAHA! Good one. I think that would work, in fact.

Oh, happy endings. D: But yay for Community (I haven't seen the series yet that has some fans teeth gnashing) and Parks & Rec.

I LOVE Olivia Colman - huge, huge fan from her days working with Mitchell and Webb, which if you haven't seen is a must watch.

[alizarin_nyc]

Now I want to watch EVERYTHING with Olivia Colman. So Mitchell and Webb is on the list.

I don't normally do (US) sitcoms, only Community. And a lot of people were grouchy about this season, but I'm just always happy to see the characters and some eps were better than others, so.

And Southland is cancelled.

[alizarin_nyc]

Oh fuck. Way to make my day worse. :( *cries outrageous tears*

[nrrrdy_grrrl]

Is ashamed.
