Well one person doesn't write all the episodes and do all the work on a show, right? So while it may not be the same it probably won't be terrible because they still have a lot of the same people working on it.

that's true, though i think dan was still the driving force behind some of the show. also some of the writers left when harmon was fired, iirc, so it's not just one person.

Some of the writers leave every season though. There was a whole slew of them who left after season 1 because they said Dan worked them into the ground.

I don't know, I'm hopeful anyway because some of the writers that did stay wrote some of my favorite episodes last season. At the very least the handle on the characters will probably be decent enough, or at least I will be very surprised if the show feels nothing at all like Community.

i dunno, i'd like to think NBC would know to let the people who are familiar with the show and characters do their work, but considering how much it looks like they just want to kill the show, with the timeslot and # of episode changes, i really wouldn't put it past them to make some big changes.

depending on how it goes, i might have been happier if they just cancelled it with the s3 finale tbh. but i guess we'll have to wait to find out.

This. ngl that a showrunner leaving isn't going to make me a teensy bit wary, but Harmon wasn't the only writer anyways. I'd be more worried about the show if the entire team was sacked.

Harmon was a super perfectionist though, and overlooked everything so that'd fit into his vision perfectly, until about the end of season three (which was also when the worst of the tensions with hte network that lead to his firing started up). So without him, the show will be completely different. Granted, it could be good as long as they try to make it their own thing and not attempt to mimick Harmon's style, but it will not be like the first three seasons.

Personally, I think they should have gone with one of the more prominent writers who was already on the show so that they could at least seem like it was just Harmon's personality that they didn't like, not the show itself. I'm happy that some of the older writers are still there, at least.

Sorry if this comment makes no sense. I'm really tired xD

/just realized your icon is Donald Glover.

*facepalm*

In my mind from what I have seen and heard the show is going to attempt to be most like some of the first and second seasons of Community. Nerdy and kind of out there, but not really hugely ambitious in terms of stylistic choices. I don't really think we'll ever get an episode like "Virtual Systems Analysis" or "Remedial Chaos Theory" or "Paradigms of Human Memory" again for example, but while that stuff is great I think the show and the characters will be fine without it.
