NBC has scheduled a return date for Community as part of its midseason schedule.
After yanking the series from its planned return on Oct. 19, the network has scheduled the Joel McHale comedy for Feb. 7 at 8 p.m., returning the series to its former time slot. The series will take over the time slot currently occupied by the final season of Tina Fey's 30 Rock, which will have wrapped its 13-episode run.
