'Community' Fans Have Flash Mob At NBC To Save Greendale (VIDEO)

Community Flash Mob

First Posted: 12/22/11 06:27 PM ET Updated: 12/22/11 07:27 PM ET

"Community" fans occupied NBC on Thursday, donning goatees, singing fictional holiday carols and shouting "Save Greendale!" in front of the network's Rockefeller Center offices in New York City.

"This is not a complaint. This is just like, let's bring all of our energy and all of our love [together]," flash mob organizer and "Community" activist Catherine Boyd told TV Guide. "I'm not a comedic actor. I'm not a trained person of any kind, so I tried to come up with something with zero rehearsal and zero skill set."

After the cult hit was left off NBC's midseason schedule, Human Beings everywhere jumped to action, starting social media campaigns, sending letters to the chairman of NBC Entertainment, Robert Greenblatt, and even starting an official petition to save the show from cancellation.

For all you Human Beings that couldn't join the Occupy NBC rally, take a look at the video below to see what you missed.

Dear HuffPo,

Catherine (cocreator of mob, with Evil Troy and Abed on Twitter) here. I'm extremely grateful for your coverage of our humble gathering, and would like to offer two things: savecommunitynow dot blogspot dot com, which has a wrapup (please forgive the zombie war dominating the top), and another flashmob planned for January 19th in LA. I didn't know about the mob until someone asked me to speak for them, which was very cool. Anyway, if you find any of our other ideas interesting, or if you have constructive criticism to offer, I would love to hear from you.

Yours truly and Happy Holidays,
Catherine

A month ago our comedy show at iO West in Hollywood did a comedy sketch predicting an Occupy NBC on behalf of "Community"!
