No, this isn't a joke:

I don't watch this show anymore, but I thought those of you who do might find this interesting to say the least...
I was going to post this. I guess this is an effort to help save the show? It's going to be weird with the audience laughter.

Yup. 1. Making Maya's character a central character (and sidelining Arnett/the baby) and 2. Dropping Maya's show and some characters (so I hear), and then this one.
I'd also consider it a listing of the show's mistakes.
I can't think of any other time when a sit-com flipped from single camera to multi-camera.
I think it's only going to hasten the show's demise. It's never been very good anyway (which has always been disappointing), but it's probably going to be completely worthless on a smallish set with a laugh track.

Yeah, switching to a multi-camera format with a laugh track seems like a perfect way to completely ruin this show. NBC seems to be out to ruin every good thing they stumble upon.

The Peacock is no longer interested in single-camera comedies like "The Office" and "Parks and Recreation." With the exception of "Modern Family," single-camera comedies tend to have low ratings.

The Middle and Suburgatory are both doing really well in ratings too.
Just got secretly engaged to the best guy ever!!
