brittas pizza dance was the best wtf bros cmon

I think Dan Harmon's master plan is to divide the show's fan base just for laughs.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 14 October 2011 17:49 (twelve years ago) link

i think to some extent this episode exaggerated some of the characters traits in order to emphasize their absence during the roll of the die in which they were gone & also to examine the role they played w/in the group or w/e so it came off as p cartoonish/stupid in places but i liked it i guess im just a sucker for the general premise and i liked seeing the 'what ifs' idk jeff making all these ppl worse was kindof a brilliant way to end this episode??

koyannisquatsi hop (Lamp), Friday, 14 October 2011 17:57 (twelve years ago) link

considering we had annie in a cage protesting a mock UN meeting two episodes ago i didn't think her doing a pizza dance after smoking pot at a party was really that cartoonish

d'oh i mean Britta

da croupier, Friday, 14 October 2011 18:02 (twelve years ago) link

Britta has always done stupid intentionally-written-to-be-unfunny shit like the pizza dance. It was sooooo in character. And LOL at how stupid that shit was. So, I don't get some of you guys, I guess?

re: "cool:" jeff and britta used to be, like, impenetrably witty

they've always been douchebags, the fact that you thought of them as "cool" maybe says more about you than it does about the show.

I loves me some Britta/Gillian Jacobs but I don't think she's anywhere NEAR as good a physical comedienne as Alison Brie. She's just game, I guess, which counts for a lot but I'm not always sold when she goes broad.

hahahaha ymmv I guess.

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:09 (twelve years ago) link

can't really think of any big alison brie physical comedy moments is the problem.

congratulations (n/a), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:10 (twelve years ago) link

the conspiracy episode, for one. I also think Brie is an objectively better actress but ymmv again

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:10 (twelve years ago) link

the bottle episode for 2

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:11 (twelve years ago) link

any stiffness in Britta's "physical comedy" has been pretty in character (last thing that pizza dance should have been was natural), though I'm certainly all for Alison Brie having more physical moments

da croupier, Friday, 14 October 2011 18:11 (twelve years ago) link

I'm all for having physical moments w/ alison brie

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:13 (twelve years ago) link

all episodes that have alison brie doing physical comedy. conspiracy has her in the hallway 'giving up', for example.

Ravaging Rick Rude (a hoy hoy), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:18 (twelve years ago) link

Her tantrum in the UN episode two weeks ago. Awkward, perhaps not comedic, but I liked it.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 14 October 2011 18:24 (twelve years ago) link

Also, her faint/fall at the end of the Todd episode.

Tarfumes The Escape Goat, Friday, 14 October 2011 18:32 (twelve years ago) link

i remember reading that alison brie worked as a clown before she made it big, whereas i think gillian jacobs studied acting at juilliard? anyway i'm really loving this new, looser britta. like her line last week about worms having tiny faces, she's taking the horrible awkwardness we saw in "turning it into a snake" and letting it run free.

lite-brite phrenology (reddening), Friday, 14 October 2011 18:46 (twelve years ago) link

also we got some good troy screaming when he was fighting for the present with pierce! it wasn't quite "troy crying" but it was still quality.

I DEMAND TO BE HOUSEWARMED!

da croupier, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:04 (twelve years ago) link

That was perfection, probably in my top 5 episodes ever. The penultimate scene with Jeff's arm was amazing.

Matt DC, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:23 (twelve years ago) link

Loved this episode.

brotherlovesdub, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:24 (twelve years ago) link

Pretty much think that Alison Brie's acting/comedic timing is the worst part of the show, I'm really surprised that anyone rates her. She's just so awkward and always "on" in the worst way.

GIVE ME THIS YOU GODLESS HIPPIE SKANK

Matt DC, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:39 (twelve years ago) link

Also Britta's wofeul impression of Sting doing a Jamaican accent = k-classic

Matt DC, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:41 (twelve years ago) link

evil troy and evil aaaabed

mookieproof, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:45 (twelve years ago) link

Also did anyone notice that Troy and Abed were watching Inspector Spacetime right at the end?

Considering he's been promoted to the main cast we haven't seen much of the Dean so far.

Matt DC, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:51 (twelve years ago) link

I think that was more about holding onto him because he's been in too much to be considered 'recurring'. Interesting that this episode has been the best of the season so far and featured no Dean or Chang.

Rory's new misogynist car (Gukbe), Friday, 14 October 2011 19:52 (twelve years ago) link

I wouldn't lump the Dean in with Chang when it comes to funny/unfunny arguments -- Chang can be a weak link sometimes but the Dean is classic.

lite-brite phrenology (reddening), Friday, 14 October 2011 19:57 (twelve years ago) link

I mean you probably weren't doing that, I just am protective of Jim Rash.

troy eating the candy cig was perfect

Hah, I've just read the rest of this discussion and, well, if you haven't worked out that Britta is a massive dork by now then what show have you been watching? She can do mean-spirited snark (ie everything she said to Jeff for most of the first season) but gentle comedy has always been beyond her. The pizza stuff was funny because it was so lame. And she was kinda high.

Also where is Professor Ian Duncan? Presumably doing Daily Show stuff and Britta studying psychology suggests he'll turn up at some point but I am missing my dose of hilarious fake Britishisms.

Matt DC, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link

john oliver's character is good when he's but he never felt like so much a part of the show that i care whether he comes or goes.

some dude, Saturday, 15 October 2011 01:48 (twelve years ago) link

if troy and abed have an apartment now does that mean no more pavel??

j., Saturday, 15 October 2011 04:54 (twelve years ago) link
