Fans experienced a sense of overwhelming relief as "Community" season 6 will continue to be broadcasted on Yahoo Screen. This big shift was preceded by NBC's decision to cancel the sitcom around May.
In a recent interview, NBC Chairman of Entertainment Robert Greenblatt expressed his joy over the fact the series was picked up by Yahoo.
"Yahoo's in a different business than we are, trying to build their platform, and they made an extraordinary deal. We're the co-owners of that show, and we're going to make money on it right away, which wouldn't have been the case if it had been on the network for another year," Greenblatt shared.
However, show creator Dan Harmon appears to be impervious to this big move. According to Harmon, he aims to focus on the most important concern as of the moment. That is, Harmon aims to essentially maintain the same level of "awesome" the show has had since its debut.
"The Community that [fans] recognize needs to be there ... My philosophy is [to] attempt to make the same show, and let the lack of boundaries make themselves felt. I don't want to take the wheels off so much that people think, 'This is a new show,'" Harmon shared with fans in Comic Con.
In addition, Harmon reiterated his disinterest in creating romantic pairings among the cast.
Apart from Harmon's ideas, actor-writer Jim Rash shared his ideas for the next season.
Rash, who plays the "Dean" in the series, suggested a possible "Game of Thrones" theme for an episode.
"Maybe we could work that world [into Community]," Rash shared in an interview.
"There's got to be something you can battle for - what's the throne between [rival schools] City College and Greendale," he added.
Furthermore, TVLine reported that, "When the former NBC comedy makes its Yahoo Screen debut later this year, Rash would also like to see the simmering "issues between Dean and Britta" explored."
"Community" Season 6 is said to premiere in the third quarter of 2014.
