Honestly, only a few years ago, any show on a Friday was a definite 'pass' for me. But these days, I'll probably check in on as many eps as I can. (Luckily its only 8:30).
KC, I think the 'magic number' for syndication is the # of episodes, not the number of seasons. That being said, a fourth season usually means a show has hit that special number, which is something like 70.

That video game episode was brilliant! Shirley and Annie in the blacksmith shop was hysterical!

It was pretty awesome having three eps in one night. Each one totally different yet awesome.

Imo, this is much more devastating to the show than losing Chevy Chase (or some of the other actors even). Sucks.

I've heard that Dan can be a pain to work for, but when the final product is as near-genius as COMMUNITY, you've gotta set aside the time he yelled at you to rewrite a scene or whatever, and then just celebrate the excellent finished product! However-- I can understand not wanting to be yelled at too. For me, as a fan and not an insider, I just wanna see my favorite TV show maintain its quality!
However, I have further doubts that it will be able to now... writer Chris McKenna (responisble for such brilliance as this season's 'Remedial Chaos Theory' episode and the sole remaining season 1 writer) has quit now.
Have we, the fans of COMMUNITY, entered the DARKEST TIMELINE????
I will certainly be interested to see how Season 4 holds up!

Honestly, not to rain on your parade, but I've thought this season was horrible. I struggled through a bunch of episodes and think it's become so self-indulgent to become a parody of itself. (and not in a good way)
Harmon leaving actually gives me a little bot of hope that the next season will be a little more of what the show used to be in season 1.

While I hate to hear someone doesn't care for something I just adore, I can certainly see why you might feel that way. I get the whole 'pardoy of iteself' you speak of-- but I think Community's parodying of itself is sheer genius.
I think it evolved beyond its early roots into something TV has never seen before.
And I'll be rooting for it all the way through season 4, no matter what happens. I wouldn't necessarily mind a return to less meta storylines myself.
