rdf:langString "Urban Matrimony and the Sandwich Arts" is the eleventh episode of the third season of the American television series Community. It originally aired on March 15, 2012 on NBC, with the series returning after a three-month hiatus. In the episode, Shirley's ex-husband Andre whom she has reconciled with proposes to her again. While planning her wedding, she also considers a business proposition from Pierce. The rest of the study group help Shirley plan the wedding, while Troy and Abed attempt to suppress their weirdness and act normal at the rehearsal to no avail. The episode was written by Vera Santamaria and directed by Kyle Newacheck. It received generally positive reviews, with critics praising its strong character development. Critics also noted how the Troy/Abed storyline provided the overall theme of normality for the episode. The episode's broadcast delivered a 46% increase in viewers from the previous episode in the key 18–49 demographic. This episode was intended to air as the twelfth episode, after "Contemporary Impressionists", but was aired as the eleventh episode because, according to Dan Harmon, "coming out of hiatus they wanted to air an episode that was more accessible to a general audience". It also creates a small continuity error as a small thread of the Troy and Abed story from Impressionists continues in this episode.
