Though, it said "multi-camera." Doesn't that mean it'll be a sitcom less like "Community," "Malcolm in the Middle," and "Modern Family," and more like "Friends," "Cheers," and "I Love Lucy"? At least in look. Right? "Multi-camera" means, like A, B, C, and X cameras, yes? So, does that mean they're kind of bringing back traditional sitcoms? Neat! Or do I have that completely backwards?

Oh, wait! "Rules of Engagement," "Gary Unmarried"! Huh. I guess there's just a lot of shows I don't watch. This is fun. Which others?
Okay, this... this is only fun for me, isn't it? I'll slowly retreat now.

Yes it is and his "Sports Night" is one of my favourites too. So I'm looking forward to this.
ETA:
And on a related note: anyone looking forward to Howard's "Parenthood" remake? I think the cast looks pretty amazing (Peter Krause, Lauren Graham), the trailers less so.

Not a good sign for Numbers.
Nope. Pity but then season 6 is a bit unexpected too (the buzz was it'd probably stop after 5) and it could still return (his contract for the new show will have "If 'Numb3rs' doesn't return ..." in there somewhere). And at least they have time to finish it properly, always a bonus.

Even if Fox picks up the pilot, Krumholtz will not leave CBS if it renews Numb3rs. And it's unlikely that Fox will pick up the pilot without having seen it, so both networks' decisions will fall around May.
Personally, I hope for another season of Numb3rs.

Well yeah according to Ausiello since the linked article for the thread is that same piece ;), no-one's claiming otherwise.
I don't think it's either entirely speculative OR an overreaction though considering the season has been cut from 22 to 16 episodes (which news BTW Ausiello thinks means "This is most likely the show’s final season.") and that the actors/creators themselves didn't think it'd even be back for a 6th season. If it comes back then great, if not then, so long as it ends well, also great (IMO).
