Community

[Andre Jurieu]

Last night's episode basically felt like Dan Harmon walked up, grabbed the mic, told everyone to "Recognize game. Boom!", dropped the mic, and exited the stage. It wasn't the greatest thing ever, but it was a reminder how great Community can be when it embraces its unique approach/perspective and comfortably gets to that "kitchen-sink" level.

The circle makes the complete Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet, that doesn't seem to put Jeff on the outside to me

Huh? He's not a part of the spectrum composed by the group, thus the gray/black attire

[Murdoch]

I want some candy cigarettes

Do they make them anymore? The last time I saw any was about five years and even then they had been dyed.

[swo17]

I should mention I also loved

Spoiler

how in Jeffless world, Pierce couldn't seem to fit in a mention of his experience with Eartha Kitt, despite Troy providing the perfect segue.

[knives]

He mentions it in the next episode (which played last week).

For the kid in all of us who envies the terminally ill.

Those wax lips gave me a weird flashback to my childhood. I wonder what you were actually supposed to do with those.

My platonic form of good tv comedy is Curb Your Enthusiasm. I love Eastbound and Down and (when it doesn't strain credulity so far that it stops being funny) It's Always Sunny. I think American Dad is way better than Family Guy. I gave up on The Simpsons sometime during Bush's second term. Never cared for the American Office, and haven't seen 30 Rock. Liked, but was never a cultist for, Arrested Development. Grew up on Seinfeld, and I think Cheers was the greatest sitcom ever.

I thought Joel McHale was funny on that E! show he used to do (maybe still does?), and loved '80s Chevy Chase.

Is this show for me?

[domino harvey]

It may very well be made for you

[knives]

Yes, you basically described me (though I have never seen Cheers). He still does by the way.

[Tom Hagen]

All right, I will have to order the first season. This seems to be the only thing more popular than Rivette around here.

[swo17]

It's probably most like Arrested, of the shows you mentioned, but it's also kind of its own thing.

He mentions it in the next episode (which played last week).

I do remember an Eartha Kitt joke having been made in last week's episode. So was that supposed to be a hint that all of that was happening in the alternate universe where Jeff got the pizza, chronologically following last night's episode? (So in other words, without Jeff, everyone gets along a lot better, but the show becomes not very good?) Mind = slightly blown, I guess. I wonder if this ties in with that British time travel show they introduced in the first episode.

Community, the best sci-fi show on TV.

[knives]

Yeah, they showed the episodes out of order which really screwed with those jokes.

NBC is producing some Christmas figurines based on last year's Christmas special

[Jean-Luc Garbo]

I have to get Shirley's apron for my mom.

[swo17]

For those that only have three minutes to watch last week's Community.

Any fans of Millennium? I'm going through the series for the first time since childhood and the freed torture victim in the pilot with the sewn-together eyes and lips eerily reminds me of the Greendale Human Being, particularly the muffled shrieks...

[domino harvey]

Three for three on great Halloween eps

[knives]

Even my annoyance at their portrayal of horror movies I'm liking what I'm seeing. Gillian Jacobs for president.

[Murdoch]

That episode was my kind of pot-bong.

[domino harvey]

It's ridiculous how much better Britta's material is than anyone else this season. Dan Harmon and his long-term girlfriend broke up before they started season three, which might explain why Britta's getting so much focus...

[knives]

I wouldn't be surprised if that was part of it, but it might also be the slow realization of Jacobs talent finally reaching a head. She's certainly gone a very long way since the pilot.
