A familiar face is missing from Community, which resurfaced recently on Yahoo Screen. Yvette Nicole Brown, who played Shirley throughout the show’s NBC run, announced last summer that she wouldn’t make the move to Yahoo. Brown said at the time that her father was ill and needed her care.
In October, though, Brown became a regular on CBS’ remake of The Odd Couple, playing Dani, assistant to sports-talk host Oscar Madison (Matthew Perry). After CBS introduced The Odd Couple to TV critics meeting in Los Angeles in January, Brown explained that the work load of a single-camera comedy like Community is very different from a multi-camera show like The Odd Couple.
