Yeah, you heard right-- Sony, who owns Community-- has fired Dan Harmon, the show's creator. Why they would do this is anyone's guess and, according to his Tumblr, was surprising news to Harmon himself. This comes as an additional spit in the face to the news that Community will likely only continue to exist for one more half of a season before getting the axe.
That's right, the show only has a half a season left and now it won't even get to end properly because they fired the guy that created. So now whatever happens to the Greendale Seven in those final episodes doesn't matter, because they'll be written some other doucher instead of the guy who created the show's entire universe in the first place. Would it of been that hard for Sony to keep Harmon around for just half-a-freaking-season so he could end the show the right way? It really just seems pointless to even watch the final episodes. It just doesn't seem right.
Community is one the the most consistently funny, smart, and innovative sitcoms on television today, and this is how it gets treated by the suits? Can you say out of touch? Well, enjoy what NBC decided we should get a new full season of, Whitney, which is probably the worst show ever. This is why you guys are fourth in the ratings. Screw you.
