This is why Abed is the greatest character ever. He's the narrator within the story (which is fairly unique).

i also loved the paintball episode, but I also thought the chicken finger mafia was freaking fantastic.

saldana · 05-24-2010, 11:09 AM

dola, the episode with high school kids that came to visit was equally as great.

Really? I don't see them on Hulu now. Sucks...I wanted to watch the first season again.

I have heard stories of sites out there *cough cough Ninja Video* that have them all hosted on their site, but i would never use such a site to watch TV shows so i really cant say *cough cough go to Ninja Video*

I guess they're down to the last 5 aired now on both. Maybe someone like Blade can point you to a different site.

Radii · 05-26-2010, 11:30 PM

I stopped watching about halfway through due to the fact that my DVR was packed on Thursday's... just caught up on the rest of the season. The Goodfellas/Chicken Nuggets episode was freaking brilliant, but the Paintball episode ranks up there with the best single half hour of TV I've seen in years. The racism episode of Better Off Ted and the Slap Bet from How I Met Your Mother are the only things I can think of in recent memory that are on the same level that I've seen.

Love this show! Also thanks Blade for the tip

DanGarion · 12-08-2010, 03:11 PM

Ok this bitch needs resurrected. This is one of the consistently funniest shows on TV.

Really looking forward to this weeks Christmas episode with claymation.

Fixed.

This and Modern Family are without a doubt the two best comedies on TV right now. For a show with so many cheap jokes, it's hard to make the argument that it's too smart for TV. But that's the only thing that explains the ratings. This show is hysterical.

"Nice sweater."
"Thanks, my dad got it for me."

Awesome.

Crapshoot · 01-21-2011, 12:07 PM

I think its the best comedy on TV these days (well, maybe Archer comes close).

Louie and Archer are the only comedies I'd say are better right now (and The IT Crowd if we're counting shows not being broadcast in the US).

BishopMVP · 01-22-2011, 01:08 PM

I can at least understand why Archer doesn't have a wider fanbase... why Community doesn't I'll never know. I just hope it survives the cut when NBC (presumably) drops the comedy block back to 2 hours next fall.

Radii · 02-19-2011, 04:10 PM

Another great community episode this week. Everything with LeVar Burton and Troy was amazing.

I read an interesting review of this episode: Review: Community - Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking: Pierce the puppet-master - HitFix.com

To sum it up:

Quote:

Pierce was even more evil here than he was in the D&D episode, or the trampoline episode, or at pretty much any time in the life of the series. What he did to the group in general and Jeff in particular was pretty unforgivable, and it was done without the aid of pain pills. This was an unclouded Pierce doing this, and if we're supposed to take the emotions of the study group seriously - which this series, and this episode in particular, asks us to do - then this would lead to a permanent shunning.

Pierce really has gone from a simple disparaging antagonist to a really mean hateful guy. Its made for some great performances and really hilarious moments in the last couple episodes, but it seems like a bad thing for the cast long term unless Pierce settles down via some sort of resolution of the whole painkiller thing pretty soon.

Radii · 02-19-2011, 04:14 PM

Set Phasers to Love Me!

OldGiants · 02-20-2011, 09:25 AM

The Levar Burton references kept getting better and better, topping with "Well...more fish for Kunta." And Troy staring back with the look of Geordie LaForge with his visor off was incredible.

We can only hope the writers know where they are going with Pierce. Dan Ackroyd in a guest shot (since the real Belushi brother is long dead) would work wonders.

Crapshoot · 02-20-2011, 04:51 PM

Troy may be my favorite character. The bro-mance between him and Abed is JD and Turk levels of awesome.

Ryan S · 03-17-2011, 03:23 PM

NBC has renewed Community for a third season.

I didn't watch lost so no comment there, but I am extremely skeptical about a sequal to the paintball episode. That episode was a masterpiece. Revisiting it in any way should simply not be done IMO. Maybe they'll prove me wrong, but the chances of them living up to the standards set in that episode has to be nearly 0.

I think it will be a play on the fact that sequels never live up to the original...

Very enjoyable episode. Not at all what I expected when I saw the pulp fiction previews, but it was really good.

DanGarion · 04-23-2011, 11:04 AM

Wow comments have dropped off. I thought this weeks episode which was pretty much the Anti-Clip-Show was awesome, so much stuff crammed into one episode.

Once again, pure genius. If you don't think this show is the funniest thing on TV, I'm not sure your opinion of humor can be trusted. It simply works on too many levels.

It seems like there has been another program that did a clip show with all new clips, but this was truly imaginative. Love the new scenes from past episodes, especially the scenes from the Christmas episode. The "shipper" videos of Jeff/Annie and Abed/Pierce were pure gold.

Love Abed's fascination of The Cape throughout the scenes of the episode.

Britta: There's rioting in Tunisia!
Abed: But The Cape is premiering.
Britta: Humanity is premiering, you jags!

The "clip show" was brilliant. Best comedy on TV right now, I think. The occasional miss of an episode, but that happens when you're trying something different.

completely agree. I don't mind the misses much b/c they miss by taking wild creative shots at doing something completely different, and when they hit its funnier than anything out there, and the average episode in between is awesome.

I just caught up on the who's the boss episode and the clip show episode last night, I loved both, loved the pierce/abed music montage thingy, loved Chang and the monkey, loved all the clips that never happened, just great stuff.

Regardless, I'm tuning in to see Annie in that outfit. Holy crap indeed.
