The Golden Globe awards really accentuate the seismic shift in the television landscape over the last decade. Many of the television shows up for the various awards came from premium networks that were once known solely for broadcasting movies, such as HBO and Showtime.

Of the five nominees, two were on premium networks, which is two more than NBC and CBS Read More

All we know for sure is that Community isn't going to be a part of NBC's Thursday night lineup when the rest of the shows return from their mid-season hiatus. When, or if, it will ever return is the subject of conflicting information. Although the ratings have been less-than-stellar, Community Read More
