Effective immediately, not much of a surprise.


quote:

EXCLUSIVE: Pierce Hawthorne is dropping out of Greendale Community College. After a tumultuous three-and-a-half year relationship, Chevy Chase and the producers of NBC’s cult comedy Community are parting ways by mutual agreement. Chase’s departure from the show is effective immediately. The bulk of Community‘s 13-episode fourth-season order have been filmed. Chase won’t appear in the 1 or 2 episodes that have not been shot yet.

Well, that just means the final two episodes of the series will be awkward.

Show's not going to get another season. Just another log in the fire.

At least we'll have the memories of seasons 1-3.

Replace him with Fred Willard, and give them another season at least.

Chevy Chase has issues. Didn't he leave SNL after one season because he felt that he was the biggest star on that show and they weren't using him to his full capacity?

Just for the record, this is always the right answer.

I'm honestly relieved by this, if I had to listen to Chase bitch about Community for one more season.

If Jerry van dyke wasn't 80 he'd be awesome.

Replace him with Bill Murray as Jeff's Dad is the one and only answer

This really pisses me off. Chevy was by all reports a true cancer, but the show was so damn good. Dude was getting paid and nobody else was willing to take a chance with him. Why the hell would you rock the boat in that situation? It's like someone paying you 50k a year (completely extra) to be retired, go fishing, and play with your grandkids. How can you be stupid enough to frick that up?

Community will be like Freaks & Geeks in my mind, a fantastic show that got tanked far too early because of pure stupidity. (All of this is because I assume it won't be brought back for a 5th season because the show's dynamic is going to be tanked this season)

Good lord what I would do for four seasons of freaks and geeks. 4-5 seasons of a show ain't the worst thing in the world.

Willard is already playing another character on the show in the episodes already recorded. Although it would be fricking hilarious if they just said "frick it, you're playing both Pierce and the other character in the final two episodes."

If Dan Harmon were there he'd do it. And when people would ask why he'd say "frick you, that's why".

But he would make it work. God I hate Chevy Chase.
