"The premieres of Community and Whitney have been delayed. Both shows were tipped to debut on Friday, October 19, but will now premiere later this season, NBC has confirmed.   &amp;quot;Given the success we&amp;#039;ve had for the past four weeks - including winning the first week of the season in A18-49 - we&amp;#039;ve decided to continue to concentrate our promotional strength on our new NBC shows that are scheduled Monday through Wednesday, and have therefore decided to hold Community and Whitney from their previously announced premieres of October 19th,&amp;quot; the network said in a statement issued on Monday evening (October 8). &amp;quot;Without having to launch these comedies on Friday at this time, we can keep our promotion focused on earlier in the week - plus we will have both comedies in our back pocket if we need to make any schedule changes on those nights. &amp;quot;When we have a better idea of viewing patterns in the next few weeks, we will announce new season premieres of Whitney and Community.&amp;quot; Repeats of Grimm are expected to air in the 8pm slot on Fridays as a lead-in to all-new episodes of the show. Community - which counts Joel McHale, Gillian Jacobs, Donald Glover and Alison Brie among its cast - is about to start its first season without creator Dan Harmon, and had been moved from its previous position on Thursday evenings. Meanwhile, Whitney is about to start its second season, having also been moved from its original slot on Wednesday evenings.
