The Friday debuts of Community and Whitney are on hold indefinitely. Both were originally scheduled to premiere on Friday, October 19. No decision has been made yet about when they will air or on what night, according to Vulture's Josef Adalian. But I wouldn't bet on having to wait too long after the ratings for this Wednesday's Animal Practice and Guys with Kids come out to learn when Community and Whitney will air... Source
Given the success we’ve had for the past four weeks – including winning the first week of the season in A18-49 – we’ve decided to continue to concentrate our promotional strength on our new NBC shows that are scheduled Monday through Wednesday and have therefore decided to hold COMMUNITY and WHITNEY from their previously announced premieres of October 19th. Without having to launch these comedies on Friday at this time, we can keep our promotion focused on earlier in the week — plus we will have both comedies in our back pocket if we need to make any schedule changes on those nights. When we have a better idea of viewing patterns in the next few weeks, we will announce new season premieres of WHITNEY and COMMUNITY.
I couldn't give half a **** about Whitney, which is just garbage, but they have been doing Community dirty for over a year now and this is just frustrating. I mean shows like Up All Night are cute and all, but I just wish the general public would get with the actually amazing comedies out there (ie. Parks and Rec, 30 Rock, Community).
