Since Fox cancelled Joss Whedon’s Firefly and Dollhouse, there hasn’t been a network that comes close to making me as nervous that they will cancel a great series, or until now. NBC announced that they will be putting the Thursday Night sitcom on the backburner for the midseason.

comedy at its best. They have done
parodies of iconic films, tv shows and even themselves. Last year they went as far as to parody the

the pop culture references, parodies and themed episodes will keep anyone who
watches coming back for more.

Are you there, Chelsea? are on
Wednesday night’s timeslot at the midseason start. Is NBC seeing something that I am definitely
missing with this move?
