TV Trailers: Patricia Clarkson On ‘Parks & Recreation’, Plus ‘Community’ And ‘Glee’

Sad as I am to see summer go, there is something I’m really looking forward to about the coming months, and that is the advent of the television’s regular season. After a long summer away from my imaginary friends in Pawnee, Greendale, and Lima, I’m eager to check back in and see what the new premieres have to offer. Hit the jump to see:

(I’m told you can also download the preview for free onAmazon, but it’s not working for me at all.)

I exaggerate only slightly when I say that my face looked like Andy’s (Chris Pratt) in the header image while I was watching this video.Parks & Recreation’s fourth season hits Thursday,September 22at 8:30 PM on NBC. [Cinema Blend]

A few days ago, we showed you the firstpromoforJohn Goodman’s appearance on the third season ofCommunity. A new spot has landed, which covers most of the same ground but also but mixes in clips of some jazzy dance numbers. Jeff (Joel McHale) may notunderstandthe appeal ofGleeat all, but it seems the people makingCommunitydo — and if the musical number (or, fingers crossed, musical episode?) is half as fun as it looks, it may end up out-Glee-ingGleeitself.

The new season ofCommunitywill premiere on NBC Thursday,September 22at 8 PM — just beforeParks. [Vulture]

Speaking of which, here’s another promo for the third season ofGlee. The video promises, “New year, same underdogs,” and indeed, it looks like more of the same: Sue (Jane Lynch) and Will (Matthew Morrison) are still engaging in their rivalry, Finn’s (Cory Monteith) still wrestling with being unpopular, and Brittany (Heather Morris) is still charmingly ditzy. But hey, it looks like Quinn (Dianna Agron) has gone punk rock, or something, so that’s something new to look forward to, right?

Gleewill return for its third season Tuesday,September 6at 8 PM on Fox. Yes, that’sthisTuesday. Summer is officially over. [Vulture]
