I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yes, he'll still be consulting producer. So there will still be....Harmonising.
I'm not used to getting a feel off of sitcoms as to individual impact. Here's to hoping there's effectively no downside.
I do wonder what's up with this--did he get the boot--for performance reasons? Wrote one too many rant? They want to go in a different direction?
I mean, it feels like there are only 13 episodes left--why not just ride it out with the current team?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yeah, everything that's been said about the move to Friday seems to imply that the goal is mostly to keep the current audience, so why shake things up further? Unless there were even more behind the scenes shenanigans than we know about. Which there could easily be. But I'm very curious about all that.
I'm also pretty curious about that scene Chevy wouldn't shoot or was resistant to or whatever it was that sparked the feud. I didn't notice any holes in the final episodes, but maybe I wouldn't if it would have been something surprising.
They've got to make some web version of the video game or a phone download or something, right?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, I am worried about Harmon not being showrunner for several reasons. And let me clarify that Sony (the studio) is to blame for Harmon being let go, not NBC this time.
1) I don't think Harmon's voice will nearly be as prominent as the first 3 seasons of the show. So I think Community will become a more traditional sitcom - like season 1.
2) The renewal of the show and the firing of Harmon signals to me a naked attempt by Sony to get the show to 100 eps with proper regard for what makes the show "Community."
I think the show is going to suffer. Some people are comparing it to the last season of "Gilmore Girls." I didn't watch much past the 2nd seasons so I don't get the reference, but I don't think it is possible any of my favorite episodes will occur next season. I would prefer the show be canceled and go out on this finale. The final 3 eps were perfect.

He might be an asshole, but damn if I wouldn't like to have a couple of drinks with him.

I don't think there is still any magic attached to 100 episodes, and even if it were, Community's not making it that far with as many episodes as they have ordered so far. You can get to syndication with 88 (still not really getting there) or even in your first season (so would they care?) these days.
