Yesterday, the news broke that NBC’s cancelled cult comedy Community wasn’t quite as cancelled as everyone thought. The rallying cry of #SixSeasonsAndAMovie didn’t fall on deaf ears, evidently, as Sony announced the fan favorite series would get a sixth season on Yahoo Screen. We here at the Nerdist offices were quite excited by the news, but nowhere near as excited as the denizens of Twitter, who gave the announcement at least 5 Meow Meow Beenz. We’ve rounded up some of our favorites here.
The show is evidently popular amongst comics royalty like Warren Ellis.

And Ed Brubaker too!
With Community and whatever the new @paulfeig show is, Yahoo is making good moves. #sixseasonsandamovie — Ed Brubaker (@brubaker) June 30, 2014
I am a little rusty on my slang, but I’m pretty sure “HJ” stands for “Hooray, Jeffs.”

Writer/director BenDavid Grabinski raises a very valid point.
Someone was just saying hashtags have never led to anything meaningful. That person was stupid. #sixseasonsandamovie

Dan Harmon chimed in with some cryptic “El Paso” lyrics:
It’s been so long since I’ve seen the young maiden. My love is stronger than my fear of death. #SixSeasonsAndAMovie

Even giant life events can’t stack up for this fan.
I got engaged. I was present for the birth of my nephew. I’ve met celebs. But nothing compares to how happy I am rn. #SixSeasonsAndAMovie — Thee Fanboy Slayer (@theefefe) June 30, 2014
There’s nothing fishy about this fan’s reaction.
HOLY CARP. #Community #sixseasonsandamovie — worldcupwen (@maegwen) June 30, 2014
This guy definitely knows Community‘s fan base all too well.
Are there any COMMUNITY fans who will protest a potential 7th season because it exceeds the number set by the catchphrase? — James Poniewozik (@poniewozik) July 1, 2014
But at least if they do see season 7, they’ll have a good home.
Can’t wait for Hotmail to host season seven of Community

What are you most excited for in Community, Season 6? Let us know in the comments below.
Troy should come back as a pirate ninja. #sixseaspnsandamovie
UMMM HELLZ YES #sixseasonsandamovie *as sung like Troy and Abed in The Morning
Who knew Yahoo could be pulled from the brink, just to be saved for another season?
I’m excited about everything!! I won’t survive without Magnitude, Garret and the Dean! Also my hope for Jeff/Annie is still alive.
#sixseasonsandamovie yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah
For a minute there, I died from pure joy.
I swear to god I cried a tear of joy. I didn’t cry at my dad’s funeral. Just saying.
