Thursdays (Jan. 20)
8-8:30 p.m. Community
8:30-9 p.m. Perfect Couples
9-9:30 p.m. The Office
9:30-10 p.m. Parks and Recreation
10-10:30 p.m. 30 Rock
10:30-11 p.m. Outsourced
Im not gonna repeat what i said in the Comm thread, but the show has bounced around 4.2 to 5.6 million viewers (up and down all season, Halloween was the peak) and has had its season increased by two eps mirroring what they did last year. I would confidently put money on them being renewed for a third season to the point im not remotely worried about it now.
The show was expected to fall flat on its face running against Big Bang Theory and instead its viewing figures are basically the same as last season.
As ive said before, NBC cant afford to cancel a show consistently pulling 4.x-5.x million viewers to replace it with an unknown quantity.
