NBC's mid-season schedule benches 'Community,' kills 'Prime Suspect,' brings back '30 Rock'

NBC just put out its mid-season schedule press release, a flowery document that boasts of the return of “The Voice” and “30 Rock,” the debut of the musical drama “Smash,” a TV series version of “The Firm,” the “Chuck” series finale on January 27th, and many, many, many timeslot changes. 

Know what words the release doesn’t contain? “Community” and “Prime Suspect.” 

“30 Rock” will be on Thursdays at 8 in place of our friends from Greendale Community College (while “Whitney” lives to laughtrack another day), and “The Firm” will take over the Thursday at 10 o’clock timeslot where “Prime Suspect” has been steadily getting better. NBC says “Community” will be back at some point, on a date and time TBD, while “Prime Suspect” will probably just finish out its initial 13-episode order and go back to the hat store in the sky.

Wow. Way to Britta your schedule, NBC. Community is on hiatus and they’re keeping Whitney… what a shame.

    So happy that 30 Rock is back, but sad about having to see Community go (for a bit, at least)
