The Dean Pelton costume montage was fucking brilliant. As was every other aspect of this unfuckwithable episode.
― Funky Mustard (People It's Bad) (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Friday, 22 April 2011 05:21 (fifteen years ago)
counterpoint: that episode sucked.
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Friday, 22 April 2011 05:24 (fifteen years ago)
OK, that was harsh, but man that was grating. chang used to be funny, and the plot of this episode seemed to draw attention to all the ways the show doesn't make me laugh. britta and jeff's simultaneous break up lines cracked me up though.
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Friday, 22 April 2011 05:37 (fifteen years ago)
ah! The montage speech was excelllent! And I loved Dean Pelton's costumes. And Abed as the Cape! Hee hee.
Did anyone else notice that at the very end when Chang walks in that the wide shot of the diorama diorama has a tiny Chang standing outside the room looking in? <3

we have all but the first two eps of the first season patiently waiting for us on our dvr. everytime the cable fucks up and a guy has to come out our biggest fear is that he'll take the dvr away.
something i learned today: joel mchale was born in rome and baptized in the vatican. crazy.

i liked 30 rock last night but this episode took the thursday night cake. and even parks & rec was awesome too and this episode still took the cake. 30 rock ended up looking a little lazy with their actual flashback montages. the whole ghost town thing...

What is The Cape?
When Abed sneaks up on Jeff in the cafeteria and knocks over his food, I laughed so hard my dad knocked on my door to see what was happening.
― popular gay automobile (a hoy hoy), Friday, 22 April 2011 14:51 (fifteen years ago)
The Cape was a failed NBC superhero show from earlier this season. Never saw it, but by all accounts it was awful.
― 'what are you, the Hymen Protection League of America?' (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Friday, 22 April 2011 14:52 (fifteen years ago)
IT WAS
― I just like… I just have to say… (Starts crying) (DJP), Friday, 22 April 2011 14:52 (fifteen years ago)
lol at Abed yelling "six seasons and a movie!" about The Cape.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 22 April 2011 15:00 (fifteen years ago)
I laughed hard about that, and pretty much all the Cape stuff, too
― rockapads, Friday, 22 April 2011 15:55 (fifteen years ago)
Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas, I believe, was the first. That may not be the actual title.

Modern Warfare?
― rockapads, Friday, 22 April 2011 16:31 (fifteen years ago)
p sure modern warfare could be a course
― just sayin, Friday, 22 April 2011 16:33 (fifteen years ago)
yah "Modern Warfare" is definitely a course title. and the pilot was just called "Pilot" obv. the only one i'm kind of on the fence about is "Pascal's Triangle Revisited."
― some dude, Friday, 22 April 2011 16:35 (fifteen years ago)
I guess I'll take your word for it. It's a hard thing to Google, with all of the Call of Duty and Community references.
― rockapads, Friday, 22 April 2011 16:37 (fifteen years ago)
I'm sure Modern Warfare is a 101 course at most of the service colleges, and would probably extend into civilian colleges for ROTC programs and whatever.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 22 April 2011 16:39 (fifteen years ago)
The Cape was incredibly awful, and every single one of those Cape jokes had me rolling
― Nhex, Friday, 22 April 2011 17:38 (fifteen years ago)
Veggie gurl one of his parents taught at the american university in rome so he + his brothers were born there but grew up in seattle. no president mchale!
― calling planet smurf (sunny successor), Friday, 22 April 2011 21:22 (fifteen years ago)
If both of his parents (as opposed to just one) are US citizens, he's in the clear.

Naturalization rules are effed up and probably constructed during a Christmas party after everyone had already gotten wasted on punch.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 22 April 2011 21:24 (fifteen years ago)
i missed the beginning of the whole Cape bit so spent the whole time trying to figure out if it was a callback to his Batman costume in the Halloween episode or something else. need to rewatch that, because i wasted a few hours of my life on episodes of The Cape and could use some cathartic laughs to heal the pain.
― some dude, Friday, 22 April 2011 21:35 (fifteen years ago)
thought this episode was really good
― dearth of the hipster (Lamp), Friday, 22 April 2011 21:37 (fifteen years ago)
i missed the beginning of the whole Cape bit
Troy and Abed were in Abed's dorm room getting ready to watch the premiere episode of The Cape when Britta came in and changed it to the news. 2 or 3 more things happened after that, which I'm assuming it was you saw.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 22 April 2011 21:43 (fifteen years ago)
Holy shit.
Want to put in a word for the Dean's cartoon as well.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Friday, 22 April 2011 23:23 (fifteen years ago)
well i mean i was watching but distracted during the first few minutes of the show -- so i just missed the line explaining that the reason Abed was wearing a cape was because of the show The Cape

― poplocking nazis from space (CaptainLorax), Saturday, 23 April 2011 22:01 (fifteen years ago)
I like how Abed was able to tell by the littlest clue that Jeff and Britta hooked up on the paintball episode but it took him forever to realize they were still hooking up despite the biggest clues ever
