And The Fandom Rejoiced: Yahoo! Saved Community
You’ve probably heard the news, either via Twitter or from the sound of people celebrating in the streets (fans are weeping loudly all over the world), Community has been renewed for a sixth season by Yahoo! Every single pop culture website has weighed in on the last minute save but to be honest they don’t really matter. Community was renewed because of the small but violently faithful fans that follow it. So if you need some help reacting to the news of Community’s triumphant return, you should look to the fandom.
It wasn’t a dream. MAN IS GOOD! #sixseasonsandamovie http://t.co/1KvJjEhh0x

When people are that enthusiastic it’s hard to ignore so if you’ve managed to come this far without getting sucked into the wonder that is Community, hopefully this is enough to convince you of the error of your ways. There is still plenty of time to catch up and join the fandom before we get new episodes.
