Just in: NBC today handed new seasons to Thursday comedies The Office, Parks and Recreation and Community. The renewals weren't surprising despite low ratings for Parks and Community, each averaging around 5 million viewers, as the network seeks to rebuild its lineup, reports USA TODAY's Gary Levin.

The Office will have to make do without star Steve Carell, who's exiting the show when his contract ends this spring. Companion 30 Rock was previously picked up for a sixth season, but freshman sitcoms Outsourced and Perfect Couples are unlikely to survive.
