Community, the tv show

I'd settle for Alison Brie & Joel McHale.

I'll settle for Gillian Jacobs

So the Season 1 DVD set is out today, and they've released a soundtrack for the show (!!) on iTunes. Attempting to take on Glee in their stronghold is pretty bold.

Also <3 Donald Glover like everyone else (his physical comedy is kind of brute force/not very finessed, which I dig, cf. the jump onto the lab table in the mouse episode), though some of his tics are clearly cut from the Tracy Morgan mold.

I really hope Big Bang Theory doesn't kill this show.

Harmon on multi-camera v. single-camera stuff in that AV club interview is really insightful and cool

Immediate Spider-Man ref from Donald Glover. LOVE IT

already lol'ing

looking forward to the gif of that kiss

I'm Old White Man Says??? No wonder he says everything I'm thinking!

Alison Brie makes the best crying faces.

lol @ the burn on Shit My Dad Says.

Also, saboteur Chang will be fun.

good stuff - probably one of the best Britta performances yet

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

Great episode

Annie's reactions to Jeff/Britta were great. Also I know it's cheap but Chang can bring the lolz.

this pocket got any room or a little spare Chang?

shirley's quiet, gleeful clapping during the kiss was also pretty magnificent

Everything about this show is so pitch-perfect right now.

I just watched the season premier and directly afterwards found myself here as a result of getting high. I think I'm going to like this place. Can somebody tell me how it works?

Fantastic start to the season, loved it all but I laughed hardest at the Abed/Sherley exchange about "meta" and him wishing all the adventures could all be more like paintball.

"Since you failed to grasp the central metaphor of those insipid Twilight books you devoured, let me explain it to you: men are monsters who crave young flesh. The end."

"I'll show you the tool that's most important to our survival but I have to warn you, it's my penis."

omg the balloons that come with the wedding and irish singer and george clooney best man have half britta face half jeff face

In other words, you’re not Joaquin Phoenix.
No, no, I’m not Joaquin Phoenix. I was told that somebody shit on somebody’s face in that movie. I’m not going to do that.

I just saw that movie last weekend, and yeah, that was an alarming part to see.
I’m not gonna do that on camera.

If you do that, we won’t hear about it.
Well, unless she tells somebody.

Oh, it’s a woman who’s getting her face shit on?
Is it not a woman in the movie?

No, it’s actually Joaquin who gets shit on.
Look, all I’m saying is that to be aroused, I need to shit on someone’s face, usually a woman. That’s all I’m saying. Will that make it in?

Yes, we’ll make the headline: “Donald Glover Likes to Shit on People’s Faces.”
The only way Donald Glover can cum.

ratings stayed the same (i.e. abysmal).

boo.

At least they didn't get worse? I was worried about Big Bang Theory taking away a part of the audience.

I'm going to be so sad when this show gets cancelled.

I think if Community were to get canned by NBC (which, who knows...they'd be dumb enough to do it), it's got the kind of fanbase that would get it picked up by Comedy Central or TBS.

I hope so, but I have my doubts. It's probably going to be like Arrested Development all over again.

Too expensive for cable, I'll bet. Either way, with Outsourced doing very well it looks like Community is first in line to get the chop to make way for Parks and Rec. It's all so cruel.

I wonder how much that has to do with NBC promoing the shit out of Outsourced all summer. Here's hoping the ratings for that show nosedive in the coming weeks.

IT DID WELL? xp

NBC probably loves backlash at this point, so they'd probably keep it on the air just to spite people who don't like it (Outsourced, that is).

Community had about 5 million viewers, Outsourced had a 8 million.

Also, Shit My Dad Says gave 30 Rock a hell of a beating.

Ugh.

Yeah, but Shit My Dad Says got pretty universally panned by critics beforehand and by tv watchers on twitter after its premiere. I bet the second week numbers are considerably less.

I didn't see it, so I don't know how bad it actually is.

Its only the first week, I'm not going to worry about those numbers too much just yet. Lets see what October brings.

Outsourced had the benefit of The Office being a lead-in. Where are the numbers for how many of those 8 million people tuned out before the half hour was up?

good ep. I really wanted to see Aison Brie's post-punch reaction play out more just coz I imagine it being insanely great

GRATE ep.
