New American Comedies this Fall

I came across this article on Yahoo Entertainment and I have to admit it got me pretty pumped for new comedy. This is the link

Here are my top favourites to read on that list: Community (it's got Chevy Chase!), Bored to Death (Jason Schwartzman, Ted Danson and Zach Galifianakis all in one comedy), Cougar Town (just because it's written by the guy who created Scrubs and Clone High) and of course Glee which I really liked what I saw.

Did not include Hank with Kelsey Grammer, created by the guy who worked on Everybody Loves Raymond.

I'll agree with these, and even thought it's not on the list "The Middle" (with Neil Flynn & Patricia Heaton) also looks funny. Here's a preview... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgyOqrMg--o

It was included in their "don't watch" list. It would probably be in mine too.
It's pretty much Kelsey Grammar gets stuck in hillbilly land, watch him act likes he's better than people, NEW on ABC!"

i am also interested in "community." is there an equivalent to the American community college (or junior college--a college that specializes in two year degrees, "associates degree") in the United Kingdom?

EDIT: upon further review, it appears you are in Canada, so maybe the question should be for others (although it would be interesting to know if Canada has community colleges too).

I guess this means this autumn.

I see Sky1 have bought The Modern Family, which is supposed to be hilarious.

We have two types of post secondary school: University (degrees, masters, doctors, MBAs ect....) and College (trades and other type of diplomas).

That was does look interesting. I'm waiting to see a preview before I get to excited though.
