Community creator Dan Harmon also addressed the cancellation on his podcast:
“I was on my way to LAX and somebody from Sony called me. The fans of that show have more reason to be upset than I do. I can try to make another show and also I got paid for every minute I cared about that show. The people that are most devastated are people who put unpaid labor into the show [aka fans]. They didn’t get compensated for it. They loved the show.”
