It's just for 13 episodes so it's only going to be mid season filler again.

Stopped watching this about 4 episodes in this season, was nothing there to keep me watching. Was kinda hoping it'd be cancelled tbh

It picked up a bit after a slow start.

They've given themselves room to breath now. With Pierce gone, and Jeff being able to have story arcs outside of Greendale, you've got the potential to bring in two new regular characters. They tried that approach with Parks and Rec and it paid massive dividends for that show.

On Parks it happened on the back end of season 2. Not season 5.
They also replaced Paul Schneider, who ended up being a pretty needless character (albeit a charming one).

Community was at its best when Jeff was the focus and the others backed him up with silliness. It's lost the plot now.

If they do bring people in it all depends who they do bring in. Parks & Rec brought in a big star of Rob Lowe and a who at the time I felt was a underated actor of Adam Scott. If they can manage to get someone like one of them two it will help but if its a virtually unknown actor I dont think it will.

True, but it's essentially a new show with old characters now that there's a change in creative director and some of the backroom staff.

So, like the last season of Scrubs?

Sounds brilliant.

Ha, sounds like a good episode. Jeff and that become teachers at Greendale or something.

I'll pass on the fifth season, Alison Brie's gifs will make their way on the web, so not a reason enough to watch it.

Such a shame how this show has gone from brillance to this in two years.

Harmon really tanked the show when he knew he was gone and it has carried it into the fourth season.

Just finished season 4, which was absolutely abysmal.

Season 3 was very forgettable, but at least the episodes made me laugh a few times. Four was just a waste of space.

With the way s3 ended, and how bad s4 appears to been (not seen it so can't confirm that), putting more focus into his music (which has taken off since CAMP was released) makes sense.

I can't see Community lasting too much longer.

I don't really understand it. Community has obviously dropped off a lot in quality, but it's fair to say that there'll be a significantly higher number of people who know him through his acting career than his rap one. This is likely to be the last ever season, it's only thirteen episodes - why not wrap it all up nicely?

It says in that article that Donald Glover's real reason for leaving was for the opportunity to create his own musical comedy show. Seems a little odd, surely you'd see off Community, so you can bring the fanbase with you.

Yeah, it's most likely going to be the last season of Community. Only 13 episodes as well. Don't see why he wouldn't just finish it off.

I think its from some show called Hot Sluts she was in. The tagline is "Endless cleavage, bitchy girl fights, and an 800-pound disco ball. All in one slutty nightclub."

That would be awesome. I hold out some hope for this season now that Dan Harmon's back.
