‘Community’ Last Episode Season Finale Spoilers: Renewal, Cancellation and Movie Rumors

Spoiler Alert: School is out for….possibly forever. Tonight Community airs it’s Season 5 finale tonight. The cult college comedy has yet to be renewed or canceled, meaning that tonight’s episode might be the last. However, do not worry, the cast and crew seem pretty committed to making a Community movie.

The Season 5 finale of Community airs tonight on NBC.The official plot synopsis for tonight’s episode, titled “Basic Sandwich,” reads:

“The history of Greendale's first dean is uncovered in the Season 5 finale. Meanwhile, Annie and Abed search for an abandoned computer lab; Chang becomes involved in Subway's plan to take over Greendale; and Jeff and Britta make a decision about their futures.”

Recently, the dean of all deans, Jim Rash, spoke to CBS News about the season finale and the fate of the show. CBS asked the actor/writer if we will get any closure tonight:

“I don't know. Last year we sort of had closure, but I think the main thing--I guess it's sort of satisfying, in a way, but I hope that there's another season. I think it's always nice when a show knows that this is it, so you can plan for that and sort of structure it how you want the world to come to an end. In a perfect world, six seasons and a movie feels exactly right for a show like Community. It feels like we deserve a movie in the sense that you've got a pivotal character like Abed, who is so driven by movies, that you could have a show that just feeds into that and that sort of epic ending. And with Veronica Mars doing something like that, why can't we?”

Rash also spoke about the possibility of a Community movie, writing:

“As I recall it, and I might be incorrect, the very first time someone mentioned a movie was our first season and I feel like it came out of Justin Lins' mind because he was directing the first ‘Paintball’ episode. And he was like ‘Oh man, I'd love to do an action movie with these people.’ And in my mind, as that was said, I was like, ‘That's what we need to do.’ I would love to see, and I'm sure Dan and the writers could come up with a much better pitch than this, but the idea of a community college saving the world. That's all I know.”

What do you think, should Community get “six seasons and a move?” Let us know in the comments section at the bottom of the page. Besure to check out the Season 5 finale tonight at 8:00 p.m. on NBC.
