    But normally you give it a whole season to establish itself, don't you?

    NBC's pulling these shows out of those slots after like 6 episodes.

      At the very least you market the show.

      I don't think anybody other than the cult members knew about last season's finale run.

        NBC has done a horrible job marketing both shows.

        Moving the show out of the post-Office timeslot is not the worst mistake.

        Parks and Rec is going to make it's money back (and more) thanks to syndication. Community is NBC's Arrested Development.

          I was just thinking to myself how bad NBC has been with moving the times of their shows. I saw where Community was renewed for 13 episodes, this season. Are they really trying to shorten it or are they just keeping it on a short leash, before making a decision to air their regular 20+ episode season ?

          Didn't they move the show back for 30 Rock ? I just think they do a horrible job of communicating with the fans and audience. It makes it hard for anyone to know what the hell is going on.

            Just read this http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/10/...season-4-debut

            Hmm, this gets more interesting. Vulture has a statement from NBC on the delay. It reads: “Given the success we’ve had for the past four weeks – including winning the first week of the season in A18-49 – we’ve decided to continue to concentrate our promotional strength on our new NBC shows that are scheduled Monday through Wednesday and have therefore decided to hold Community and Whitney from their previously announced premieres of October 19th. Without having to launch these comedies on Friday at this time, we can keep our promotion focused on earlier in the week -- plus we will have both comedies in our back pocket if we need to make any schedule changes on those nights. When we have a better idea of viewing patterns in the next few weeks, we will announce new season premieres of Whitney and Community."
            Vulture also speculates that it’s looking very possible Whitney and Community won’t air on Fridays at all. NBC recently gave full season orders to new comedies Go On and The New Normal, but the future is much more uncertain for Animal Practice, and, Vulture suggests, Whitney could possibly be paired with Guys with Kids on Wednesdays instead, putting NBC’s only two multicamera sitcoms together. Vulture also wonders if NBC might simply put Community back on Thursdays and while they suggest it could substitute for Up All Night, I wonder if another possibility is that it could debut on Thursdays midseason, after 30 Rock finishes its own thirteen episode season – which is officially its last.
            The silver lining here is that Vulture does also believe that NBC did indeed decide to delay Community and Whitney’s returns because they’d put so much promotional money and time into their new fall series, they didn’t want to so quietly and weakly have a new Friday comedy lineup debut without proper promotion. Fans felt Community (and, okay, Whitney, if you’re a fan of that) were being dumped aside on Fridays in the first place, but it looks like NBC has indeed re-thought that idea…

                Translation: We want to see how sweeps go before deciding on when to premiere Community and Whitney.

                        Seriously. My girlfriend texted me about this and all I responded with was, "Annie is very, very hot. *** ****." To which she replied, "Haha I noticed that too." I've found a keeper.

                              I can't see the video because I'm at work. Is that the Troy and Abed explaining the state of the show ? If so, it's also on Hulu+ as a webisode.

                              If what they are implying is true, NBC really wants to feature this show in a bigger spotlight. I'm not sure if I trust NBC, though. Their track record speaks for itself.
