Community, the tv show

weird one but i still enjoyed it thoroughly

The "ABED" song was a nice touch.

OMG SHORT ARMED BRITTA

This is an amazing episode so far.

this is as good or better than paintball

Be the first black guy to make it to the ned

I wonder if this is even funny to people who don't know the characters. It's hilarious to us, but...

Chang and Shirley <3<3<3

I wish I could remember all of Chang's burn quote.

IN YOUR FACE

lol @ George Takei's voicemail bonus for people named Kevin.

FLAVA FLAV WAS RIGHT

@perpetua Is every other episode of Community going to be a lame movie parody now?

It's probably not fair to pick on Matthew since he doesn't post here anymore, but this is a case of someone completely missing what's so great about a particular show.

I wish I could remember all of Chang's burn quote.

I can see his point, and there were problems with the premise of this episode, but it was still really, really funny so I don't really mind. xpost

Chang killed it all episode.

Perpetua being astoundingly wrong shocker.

Community is special in a way that I can appreciate what the characters are doing and, in a completely separate way, appreciate what the actors are doing within the parameters of the show. When there's a more "normal" episode, I laugh at Troy or Abed or Chang, but in an episode like this, I'm laughing at Donald Glover or Danny Pudi or Ken Jeong having a great time making a tv show.

I'm still giggling over short armed T-Rex britta ^____________^

Thinking of South Park

Fantastic episode. The cat flying across the basement had me rolling. And kudos for completely ruining the Lady Gaga costume joke on The Office.

I love how they keep taking shots at Shatner too.

smh at people who are like "bleh i hate it when they do parodies." WHY DO YOU HATE JOY.

Zombie Jeff trying to text and Zombie Annie trying to study just killed me, this show is so fucking good right now.

great ep, so many little details throughout

LOL at the dean's voice memos interspersed with ABBA "Oh, and I need to check out this movie called Human Centi-"

knew I recognised chiquita MD from somewhere; he was good in tht one ep of justified

Dean Pelton's Lady Gaga costume was soooo much better than Gabe's.

It also just made more sense; of COURSE Dean Pelton would go as Lady Gaga. Gabe's character isn't interesting enough for him dressing up as Lady Gaga to elicit anything more than a "Oh. Hm." If that.

And Pelton's seemed less professional/we-have-a-TV-budget than Gabe's.

great episode. Troy and Abed's Alien/Ripley fight had me dying.

@perpetua Is every other episode of Community going to be a lame movie parody now?

yeah, you would think that it would get old, but it's a testament to how great a show it is that after decades of south park/simpsons/family guy 5 parodies per episode, these writers still manage to find fresh ways to pull it off.

Dean Pelton's Lady Gaga costume was soooo much better than Gabe's.

Oh yeah, so much better. And it did make MUCH more sense. I do have to admit, though, that I actually laughed out loud at The Office this week. More than I have yet this season and most of last season too. The cold open with Stanley was lol and so much better than the forced memes they've been playing with.

Back to the topic at hand though, its killing me that I can't remember where the "I love you" - "I know" reference is from. I know I should know that one. Donald Glover's timing is perfect. His "I have no idea why I thought this would work" switch was so great, as was his "sexy Dracula" costume.

Empire Strikes Back for one.

Goddammit, thats it!

was jeff dressed as beckham?

y

because

tru

Jeff's transition from zombie to normal without stopping texting was masterful.

Community is more about the parody of movie cliches than specific films.

This was the first thing I thought of:

and it does it so quickly! Troy and Zombie Abed was fast but that look was enough to be effective. xpost

Ratings were up because of the Shrek lead-in. Around the same numbers as 30 Rock normally gets, so that's good. The next episode's drop will be important.

was so weird how they both had the exact same lady gaga joke

"Why did he call me?"

cos he was the only one left?

keep lolling at 'oh snap: the man who went there'

Loved this! The cat joke was so well done...and the Abba soundtrack throughout was soooo lol!!!

NBC just ordered two additional eps this season, bringing the total to 24. Hooray!

The Abba soundtrack was the icing on the cake.

Glad they ordered those before they saw the drop in ratings post-Shrek special lead-in.
