    I still don't think anyone would've noticed he was gone if they didn't hear about it online. The show's quality didn't drop off that badly.

      The production (budget) looked like it was stepped up a level, too.

        I still enjoyed this season, and I'll enjoy the new one as well.

          were they some stinkers in the season? Sure. I also think some of these stinkers were a result of these new guys having to go in and fix the mess Harmon left them from S3.
          Don't you EVER read my blog? It's gotten a lot better.

              Nah. Harmon didnt leave a mess at all. The new writers decided to go all in with the Britta/Troy thing which was a disaster. They also had no idea what to do with Annie and while Chevy Chase was an ***, he actually had a point when he said that all they used him in season 4 was to tell racist jokes (with the exception of the Halloween episode).

              I'm not saying that there were no good episodes in season 4 but I prefer watching the series when its run by the guy who created the series and knows the characters than two guys who are trying to do a bad Harmon impression.

                A great example of this was the subversive way He did the Jeff/Britta angle. Yes, they had physical chemistry together but to avoid derailing the show's scope early and having it turn into a rom-com...they just did their thing off screen and we as viewers got to watch mainly the aftermath.

                We had our cake and didn't even know we ate it.

                  New York Magazine energizes people around shared interests, igniting important conversations on the news, politics, style, and culture that drive the world forward.



                  So he hasn't seen it at ALL? Find that a bit of a stretch.

                    Harmon spoke of season 4. And he was pretty much as *******-ish as you would think he would be about it.

                      Not that bad at all really.

                      Less of an attack on the guys hired to replace him and more on the corporate structure that wants to make creators more pliable and replaceable. I don't disagree with him at all on that point. The battle between art and commerce is a important one right now.

                        What a ****ing douche.

                        I almost don't want to watch Season 5 because of him.

                          I'm glad he's back personally. Yeah, he's an asshat, but I still think he's hilarious and knows what makes the show great.

                            Also I agree with Tendrils. Sure, he's an *******, but he makes great television so I don't care. It's the same way I feel about Kanye West and his music.

                              Kanye without Kanye literally wouldn't be Kanye. Community without Harmon is still Community.

                              I enjoyed last season as much as the rest, and all this Harmon-this, Harmon-that bull**** is making me sour on the show. People wonder why writers were leaving before he did? It's because he's a douche and says **** like he just said.

                                How many writers left before he did?

                                Last season may have been okay, but it didn't feel like Community and his "impression" comments about last season seem to be pretty spot on from what I saw.
