Community, the tv show

jouster, your friend has problems! the whole climax/denouement was so fricken out there. the brownie speech? loooooool

yeah the climax was out there. . . somewhere

That climax was so funny. Cutting between all the characters and having them harmonize that song was the funniest/craziest thing I've seen from NBC Thursdays this year, prob.

Agreed on the climax, and while it was still pretty feel-good and look at everyone coming together and achieving their goals, it did it in a way that wasn't the aspirational preachiness of most of the episodes so far.

I forgot about the Dark Knight parody scene, though. That was good as well. Did anyone else hear rumors that the shows' creator isn't even sure if he wants to do more than one season of this? He'd rather have one amazing season than see quality slip over time.

Here's a youtube of the "Somewhere, Out There" scene:

man that is better the second time around. when senor chang screams? loooool

He'd rather have one amazing season than see quality slip over time.

Uh. The show is getting fairly good but come on.

I think it's far from great, though I enjoy it and have hopes. Just last night I said, "this is better then Parks and Recreation was last year", and P+R has been a total gem this year. I think Community can go either way. I'm rooting for it.

troy interview http://nymag.com/movies/features/62376

guys ken jeong is an actual DOCTOR

O_O

...you know what this means? i can return to my life as a child actor

you were a child actor????? details?????

haha it came up on some other threads recently, i thought it had been established--

best episode ever. when troy was hungover at the end!

Pretty good episode. That security cop is from the Dasariski improv show in LA.

loved troy writing the crabs joke.

He has such great facial expressions and split-second comic timing. I think that's what a previous poster meant when they said he was a subtle actor.

Remember "Ha. I'm funny." from a few weeks ago?

Okay, is that Anthony Michael Hall in the Freddie Mercury mustache?

I'm loving this particular episode more than most, so far.

Oh bah. I posted on the other Community thread. Anyway, my fave two moments so far this episode:

"Ho ho ho. Merry happy!"

And Annie being Jewish.

"So, I didn't know you were a Jew." <--this isn't an offensive thing to say!

Man, Donald Glover is just about my favorite person in the world right now. "Give him the Forest Whitaker eye!"

lol "To me, religion is like Paul Rudd."

i just lost it with the forest whitaker eye

Now I'm afraid this show has peaked, because that was the best/funniest episode yet.

so pumped for this episode now (west coast).

lol "To me, religion is like Paul Rudd."

^^this

and yes, forest whitaker eye

"am i right, JEW?"

One of the things I like about this show is that within ~12 eps, they've built up the characters so that when Shirley talks about her post-final Christmas party, I am already anticipating lolz.

Jesus, this one was awesome. From Abed backing up Britta's jokes to the end-credits sequence.

Oops, can a moderator stop this other thread

community on NBC

"Why'd she have to be black?" was maybe my favorite line, but there were many good ones.

yeah this was a good ep i thought

fuckin forest whitaker eye!!!

but their take on jehovah's witnesses was a lil off imo

this has got really good!

"Why'd she have to be black?" was maybe my favorite line, but there were many good ones.

otm.

am i being retarded though? i didn't get "say the whole word".

i think the idea is that when shirley said "jew" it sound pejorative

i was never particularly into Chevy Chase, but man, everything he does on this show has me breaking up

he's doing everything he's always done!

I think this is the best episode yet. This show is becoming comedy gold.

Chevy Chase is good in this show, because he's used sparingly. Chevy Chase vehicles are usually awful; CC as an ensemble cast member = comedy gold.

^^otm

Didn't much care for the pilot so didn't watch further, but because I have no life, watched the mini-marathon, I have now some catching up to do. Also, Mrs. Pete Campbell is yowza.

good thing you have no life. this show is the best!

I wouldn't go that far, but yes, I quite like it now.

it is my favorite new show of 2009

Did anyone else hear rumors that the shows' creator isn't even sure if he wants to do more than one season of this? He'd rather have one amazing season than see quality slip over time.

This isn't really correct. In the AV Club interview -- http://www.avclub.com/milwaukee/articles/how-dan-harmon-went-from-doing-comedysportz-in-mil,34126/ -- Harmon said he only wants to be showrunner for the first season and then let someone else do it so he can go off and do other projects. And obviously if it's successful NBC will keep it going regardless of the creator's level of involvement. Kinda makes sense, since Harmon did the Channel 101 website and Acceptable TV series on VH1 (which was awesome and hilarious), where they'd create new mini-shows every week and let people vote on whether they come back for new episodes, so I can see how he'd get bored doing the same show for years and years.

zomg I dreamt I went on a date with Annie.

It did not end well.

owen wilson, what are you doing here

yo i need my genitals

i received a text message about free Sephora samples?

also you could tell donald glover worked on 30 rock from the way he said "but don't get audited! cuz that's bad!"
