Gillian Jacobs has discussed Community creator Dan Harmon's possible return for the fifth season.

Reports have suggested this week that Harmon is in talks with NBC, following the departures of season four showrunners David Guarascio and Moses Port.

Harmon was famously fired by NBC in the spring of 2012, following a highly publicised feud with former cast member Chevy Chase.

Jacobs - who plays Britta Perry in Community - appeared to lend credence to reports of Harmon's return to the series during a live episode of Comedy Bang Bang on Thursday (May 30).

"I'm hearing rumors… I've not heard a confirmation. I've heard rumblings," Jacobs said.

Comedy Bang Bang host Scott Aukerman then pressed Jacobs on if she had actually been contacted directly by Harmon.

"Of course we want him to come back… I love Dan Harmon," she assured Aukerman, adding: "I've not heard directly from him."

She then teased: "I read what everyone reads!"

Community's fifth season is widely expected to be the show's last, although NBC has not yet made any formal announcements beyond the renewal.

The series wrapped its most recent season on May 9 with the episode 'Advanced Introduction to Finality'.

Sony Entertainment Television currently airs Community in the UK.
