Exiled Greendale Community College alumnus, Dan Harmon, will be returning to regularly scheduled classes as the reinstated show runner of NBC’s Community.
Harmon confirmed the news overnight with a Tweet intimating that, along with writer/executive producer Chris McKenna, the two would be replacing their replacements David Guarascio and Moses Port [appropriately meta].
The latter two were called in to supervise a lacklustre fourth season of the cult sitcom following recurring creative disputes between Harmon and Sony Pictures Television over the writing of the show; Harmon was also involved in a very public falling out with Chevy Chase, noted pariah both on and off Community [also aptly meta].
