Fall Preview: Get scoop on your favorite returning shows

Former Cosby Showkid Malcolm-Jamal Warner will reprise his role as Shirley's ex Andre in an upcoming Season 3 episode, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively. And when he does, he'll have only one thing on his mind: walking down the aisle with Shirley a second time.Warner, who is currently starring on BET's Reed Between the Lines, first appeared on the show in Season 2 when Shirley wound up pregnant. Although Shirley feared that Chang (Ken Jeong) was the baby's father, it was ultimately revealed to be Andre, offering a glimmer of hope for the former couple's future.But according to creator and executive producer Dan Harmon, Shirley may not be ready to give up her new life to return to her old one. 

Is Community really going to be "less weird" this year?

"Shirley came to community college because she was a broken woman," Harmon says. "She had been deprived of her stability, so she w as going to strike out on her own. And now quite unexpectedly, her stability has returned to her, but she's still in community college.  So, there's a huge question that has to be asked third season: Is she going to stay here and why?" Warner is expected to return in the third season's 12th episode, which is slated to air sometime in early 2012.Do you think Shirley should get remarried?
