Sweet spot would be the preferred outcome. NBC has already realized NOTHING is going to upset the ratings behemoth that is BIG BANG THEORY (though BBT's appeal is certainly lost on me), not even critical darling (and super-awesome) 30 ROCK:
Of major note is it will be taking the place of 30 Rock, which ends after a 13-episode season, in its old Thursday night slot. Which is great, except we know nothing on NBC can win that timeslot.
More than likely, this will be it for COMMUNITY... unless a COUGAR TOWN-esque miracle happens, and a cable network buys out the show... (After ABC cancelled Cougar Town, TBS snatched it up)

I would probably be ok with 4 years and out if this much-delayed season is on par with the first 3. One good thing about this show is that it didn't seem to need an entire season to find it's "voice." It got a little more up front with the pop culture references over the years but it didn't need a half-season to get going. "The Office" took a while to get going and went on too long. I don't want that to happen to Community.
