Dan Harmon Says Sorry to Chevy Chase on Tumblr

If you’re at all familiar with names like Brita or Abed or strange pronunciations of bagel then you know all about Community, the NBC comedy created by Dan Harmon.  What you may not know is that there has been some pretty heavy controversy between the creator and one of his stars, Chevy Chase.  The interesting thing is that he took the case to his Tumblr account.

Harmon is notorious for being well connected with his fans on Tumblr and Twitter and has  tried to keep quiet about the whole controversy  — but that kind of strategy doesn’t work in today’s age.

So what happened?  Things fell apart when Chevy Chase didn’t want to do a scene in the season finale, and Dan Harmon was adamant that it get shot.
