    From an article I posted earlier in the thread:
    Community has been plagued with numerous writing staff defections over its three season run. Most recently, longtime exec producers Neil Goldman and Garrett Donovan announced they were leaving for a new deal at 20th Century Fox TV, while directors/producers Joe and Anthony Russo are also no longer part of Sony and thus are not involved in the show on a day-to-day basis.

    According to multiple people familiar with the production of Community, Harmon's flaws as a showrunner were at least partially responsible for much of the turnover the past few years. As one person familiar with Harmon's strengths and weaknesses told Vulture, "Dan is a brilliant at ideas, but he's terrible at [management]."
    Another bit I found interesting (this article was from May 2012)...
    [P]eople familiar with Sony's thinking say the studio is probably figuring that while Community with Harmon would have almost assuredly been entering its final season, a change at the top creatively might somehow result in viewers giving the series another chance and NBC becoming more invested in finding a way to keep it alive beyond the 13 episodes ordered.

      Well Bruins, just don't watch it if it's going to stress you out that much.

      It ain't worth it.

                      Hell, I'd even settle for it being Jeff.

                      Troy is probably the most indispensable character of the group to me. Except for maybe Alison Brie, but only because I enjoy gawking at her.

                        Betcha the extra money they're likely paying Harmon to come back could've been money they used to keep Glover on...

                          As much as I love Glover, I think he's too into the whole Gambino thing and wouldn't have wanted to commit much to this season regardless.

                            Which is sad because the Gambino thing is terrible.

                              Disagree. I think Gambino is pretty damn good.

                                Not to derail the thread anymore, but:

                                Too much into it for who, you? It's his life, if he wants to focus on it more than acting or whatnot, he certainly has that right. Especially if it's something he enjoys doing.
