season six likely final season of community (but not really 100% confirmed)

On my morning commute, I picked up the local free newspaper and saw an article featuring Joel McHale ahead of some comedy shows he's doing out in western/central Canada and he seems to suggest that this is the final season of Community

Movie

[cecilia1982]

"As uneven as this season of Community has been, I don't love any other show as much as I still love Community so I'll be sad to see it go, whether a hiatus or something else."

Here here! I really hope there is a movie at the very least. I mean, how can we not?! I am not sure if I have just been overconfident or not, but I feel like the movie (in some form) is a given. To not fulfill that part of #sixseasonsandamovie would just be heartbreaking. Plus, I'm hitching most of my J/A hopes to said movie, so I mean, c'mon!

The funny thing is that one of the Hollywood trade magazines is saying the opposite. Variety? Hollywood Reporter? One of them anyway was saying that Yahoo was in talks with Dan Harmon about doing more with Community, but it was all very vague and theoretical.

Edit: AHA! Found it! It was The Hollywood Reporter where I read it.

This Metro article reads to me as a very Alison Brie-like deflection. He doesn't know what's going on or what's going to happen, so he doesn't want to say anything until someone, somewhere gives him some solid information. As we all know with the "Alison isn't coming back for S6 Community" panic, it reads an awful lot like he's saying it's over when all he's saying is that he doesn't know anything.

That said, I went into S6 Community expecting it to be the last season anyway. Ken Jeong, Danny Pudi, Gillian Jacobs, and Paget Brewster all have new series waiting for them. Jim Rash, Joel McHale, and Alison Brie all have production deals. Keith David is one of those actors who is always working. Even if they

Yeah , I've been thinking the same way. Going in to this season,I figured it was it's last. NBC really screwed them over. Everyone moved on and they got picked up too late. This season is funny but the writers are dropping the ball. Other then Last week with Jeff being afraid of losing everyone.(especially Annie) The show doesn't have a last season feel to it. I like the whole Jeff/Annie thing like everyone else, but I highly doubt we will get a resolution

I think I'm on the same page as you on a lot of things. First off the interview with Joel does read a LOT as an Alison-like deflection. He doesn't really know what's going on, but it can kinda seem like he's saying things are over. Even though he's not. Second, that one sentence wherein Kathy Savitt mentions discussions with Harmon? It literally tells us nothing. That could be anything, or nothing. It could go anywhere, or nowhere. Classic no-info informational statement

Community lasted beyond two seasons almost entirely by the grace of Jay Leno...

No, I'm being serious. Remember that clusterf*ck back in 2009 when Jay Leno left The Tonight Show to start his own hour-long variety/interview show at 10 p.m.? You should since it resulted in that whole mess with Conan taking over, only to have him fired when Jay Leno's show tanked resulting in the local stations threatening to riot. NBC reinstalled Jay Leno at The Tonight Show, and Conan and his people were out of a job.

To make room for a daily hour-long Jay Leno show at 10 p.m., NBC basically cancelled everything, including (*sob*) My Name Is Earl (*sob*) and abandoned hour-long dramas in the 10 p.m. slot. Community premiered in 2009 as part of NBC's decision to build its evenings around Jay Leno

I want Community last forever
