I considered myself as big a fan as any. More confused than angry that it was cancelled. Can't believe that it didn't catch on enough with the mainstream, and disappointed that's all that matters.

Still, better to burn out in a fiery meteorite crash than to fade away. Glad it ended on a solid season. Ending after season 4 would have been crappy.
I think the "main stream" is actually pretty good on Community. The problem is that today's main stream doesn't sit and wait for Community to come on at 9 on Thursdays (or whenever it's time is. I don't even know.) and networks consider those who do as "the main stream". It's the same reason the shows that younger people connect with tend to get cancelled while Two and a Half Men continues as a top show according to how they collect all their data.

Shows like Community going down is a distribution problem above all else. They'd be a better fit on Netflix.
