I think it goes in waves. For a while people really got off on comedy writing, watching the way shows were structured, and that show, Community, I haven’t really seen it very much, but what I hear about it is that people really like the way it deconstructs the form of sitcoms and is playful with it, and that’s really turning people on, and I just don’t know anything about it, I haven seen it and I don’t have the same…everything, especially television, is shaped by what else is on and what’s been on. So that’s what that’s about, people are on a sort of diet right now, and Community gave them a brand new contextually interesting thing to like. I think that’s awesome.
JW: It’s looking like it’s going to be canceled.
Yeah, I know, it’s such a bummer. I think anything that’s not like everything else that over a million people watch, you should leave it on the air, just to keep the ground fertile. Not for some, “Fuck Hollywood, this was better,” but to keep enough variety, I think it’s important for TV to have that.
