Fan Favorite of the Day: A mere two weeks after NBC’s much maligned announcement that it was indefinitely shelving its critically acclaimed primetime sitcom Community due to poor ratings, it was revealed that the very same shelved sitcom that supposedly no one watches won TV Guide’s annual Fan Favorite Poll.
The stars of the show will be featured in three separate collectible covers — i.e. three glossy middle fingers to NBC — which are set to hit newsstands December 1st.  
Some 300,000 people in all cast their vote in the poll. Community managed to top such notable favorites as Dexter, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Chuck, and The Vampire Diaries.

When Dad passed on I suppose Mum was my first audience, as well as being my most willing and my most appreciative. She thought the world of me, my mum. She gave a little gasp and filled up when I did his voice and said, ‘I always loved you, Irene.’

Knowing Dad, it was a safe bet that he’d never told her that in life, and when I saw the comfort that I’d brought that woman, my own mum, that’s when I knew I had a gift. That’s when I knew what Ricky Sullivan had been put on this earth for. Oh, there’ll always be the unbelievers and debunkers in the papers, on the telly or what have you and it does, it makes me angry when they say people like me are cold, unfeeling, just taking advantage and all that. I’m sorry, but if they could see the happiness in people’s faces, if they really thought about the service me and others like me are providing, giving people strength to get on with their lives when they’ve just lost a loved one, well, they couldn’t say the things they say. I’m sorry, they just couldn’t. I don’t have to justify myself.
