NBC has renewed three more of its Thursday-night comedies – 30 Rock (9:30-10 p.m. ET), The Office (9-9:30 p.m. ET) and the freshman series Community (8-8:30 p.m. ET) for the 2010-11 season. The returning programs join the previously announced Parks and Recreation (Thursdays, 8:30-9 p.m. ET) that also will return for next season.

“We are happy to give these early pickups to these critically acclaimed, incredibly funny comedies,” said Angela Bromstad, President, Primetime Entertainment, NBC and Universal Media Studios. “As a result, we look forward to continuing our rewarding partnership with the respective creative teams and talented show-runners for ’30 Rock,’ ‘The Office’ and ‘Community’ as they all consistently deliver quality shows.”
