Younger viewership is the most important factor for shows surviving on ad-supported networks. Two and Half Men has about 2-2.5x the 18-49 viewership of Community, that's why it's still on. And why sports is king.

How did Parks and Recreation get renewed (and will end on its own terms) but Community didn't? The viewership seems fairly consistent and are pretty much the best comedies NBC have.
It's probably because NBC produces Parks so they benefit from syndication, while Sony produces Community.
