    does community have a in show sponsor like chuck did, their fans started to campaign to patronise subways they need to so that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 690 ✭✭✭Gingervitis


    I don't know what it is about this show, but as soon as I watch it, I'm almost hardwired to laugh out loud at it. The foozeball episode had definite shades of Beerfest to it, but it just seemed funnier coming from Community. As for the Japanamation section - par for the course genius (something typically awesome of community). I'm glad I could "acquire" this episode, just to pause the end of Leonard's pizza review at the end!

    Another f'n great episode. NBC can suck it.

    didn't think the abed troi and annie bits were that funny

    The end of Leonard's pizza review at the end!

    Weakest episode of the season for me unfortunately...
    No Dean or Chang and ultimately no Pierce or Britta...
    Jeff had some good moments and as much as I love Troy and Annie, the storyline was just weak - no room to shine...
    For me Shirley and Abed are the weakest in the cast - they're still great, but moreso as secondary characters rather than carrying a storyline...
    Can't see myself rewatching this one as much as I have rewatched last weeks Apocolypse Now Parody...


  • Registered Users Posts: 334 ✭✭Elohim


    Loved that episode, simple story, good jokes, all the reasons I watch community.

    ^^ Abed is a great character.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭heebusjeebus


    One of the best episodes this season. Loved the euro lads kicking the ball at Winger, loved the anime scene and loved the Batman bit.
    This season needs more Troy though.

    One of the "Germans" is the guy from the league, wasn't he? Just started watching that too, very funny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 460 ✭✭KeanSeenan


    Also The Douche from Parks and Rec, isn't he?
    Really glad Abed's Halloween episode song was brought back in this one.

    Decent episode.. and LOL'd hard at this bit:

    This was probably one of my favourite episodes of the season so far... Nice to see a different side to Shirley. Leonard is just awesome! I found this episode quite reminiscent of season 1 actually. Also, Abed is Batman now.

    Only one more to go until the hiatus ;________________________________;

    Yeah! Jeff thinking aloud about if they were just carrying it around as a prop all day was hilarious. Never thought a Jeff/Shirley episode could be any good at all, let alone that brilliant.


  • Registered Users Posts: 987 ✭✭✭psicic


    Nice to see the Shirley character get a bit more development, and the unusual pairing with Winger went well. Anime was interesting - though they didn't do much with it (as opposed to the stop-motion during that Christmas episode last year)

    The Annie, Troy and Abed stuff was good... it was a hard ask to stretch out the Abed/Batman joke without jumping the shark - but it went well, probably because it was highlighted how un-Batman-like Abed was. Thought it was great to have it explicitly underlined that Annie wasn't the rational cure-all to Troy and Abed's craziness and how she got swept up in her lie.

    Overall, thought the episode wasn't the best, but certainly not the worst this season (Hallowe'en Episode, I'm looking at you).

    Given the other weird pairings, I wonder if Pierce spent the weekend with Bitta at the animal hospital?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,783 ✭✭✭Mark Hamill


    Annie's Christian Bale voice is the most adorably funny thing I have ever seen/heard :D

    STREETS AHEAD!

    If you have to ask, you're streets behind...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    "What the hell are regionals?"
    "They're this close Pierce!"

    Some of the lyrics to the Troybed rap were class. :pac:

    "Smoked a ton of acid."

    "Fake butter and AIDS and Twin Peaks!"

    Some of the Annie bit was class, particularly the end. :pac:

    The Dean at the end, classic.


    Sigh, 4/5 month wait for more isn't it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,397 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    Greatest episode of any show ever. Troy and Abed's rap was amazing.

    Hey guys, rapping?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 614 ✭✭✭colinod0806


    I didn't think it was great tbh. The Troy and Abed rap was very good but all the other songs were meh.
    I do hate Glee with a passion though so that could explain it.

    Annie was just about the sexiest thing i've ever seen on tv:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Maybe it's just me but did anyone else think Annie looked a bit weird other than during her song? Just not up to her usual standard. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 29 stormcloud


    Whoever can post the GIFs do so right now.


    Posthaste


  • Registered Users Posts: 334 ✭✭Elohim


    Didn't think the episode started well but then this came along


    From here on I thought it was a decent episode.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Only heard that "On the spectrum, none of your business" there now. :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,810 ✭✭✭Seren_


    AAAHHHH! I loved it so much! <333333333333333333333333 !!! !!! !!!

    And now after getting the cheesy glee heartstacksness out of my system, I'll try be a bit more serious :p That episode has put me in a really good mood after an awful few days :) Loved the tag at the end! And the Dean's christmas cardigan (ZOMGZ WANT). Troy and Abed rap and the Baby Boomer Santa songs were my favourite. Annie's song was rather cringey towards the end, but that's just cuz I hate things like that (her hotness saved it :p). Troy's Bob Dylanesque singing for the 60s bit = awesome.

    Great episode. Loved the setup with the C&D letter to the existing Glee group - roared laughing at Winger finally being Winger.

    Annie in sexy costume = win - but her character was way off for this episode. I suppose it did show up the ludicrousness of those cringeworthy 'sexy' Christmas songs Americans are so fond of... and maybe it does fit in with manipulative Annie that dominated last week's episode (i.e. the fake burglary).

    A+ for Britta going full Britta at the end, but her offscreen 'conversion' (after the brief Bodysnatchers moment with Winger) was a let down, especially given how class and believable both Shirley and Pierces 'conversions' were.

    Overall, the episode was one of the best this season, which surprised me since it was a singing episode.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭heebusjeebus


    Britta is hot as a tree

    I didn't thin this episode would work, but it was pleasantly awesome.
    The rap (Childish Gambino in the hizzouse) and Annie's Boobs (her actual boobs, not the monkey) were the highlights of the episode for me...

    Honestly thought that was one of the best episodes of the season..

    "What's a dimininninyah myehhhh?"

    Loved all the pot shots at Glee!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,264 ✭✭✭✭Hobbes


    I would recommend watching "The Soup" as well if you like community. It is like the Daily show except for entertainment, and the whole community group show up in it.

    Here is a clip where Abed explains some of the spoilers for the coming seasons.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,053 ✭✭✭Aldebaran


    "Oh, Britta's in this?"


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    It's surprising it took them 3 seasons to have Childish Gambino do a proper rap. Admittedly, Troy did do the great Spanish and Anthropology (with Betty White) raps, but this was the first proper one. And it was excellent.



    And still no Annie Christmas gifs, for shame. FOORR SHAME!

    By far one of the best episodes!

    I don't get why you posted the link?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    Enjoyed the foosball episode but the Glee one kicked its ass. Thought it was excellent.

    Loved Chang laughing in the original Glee club's faces.

    And the song at the end with the Dean, Chang, Magnitude, Starburns and Leonard was class, especially Leonard's contribution!

    While the main parts of the show were brilliant, it's the abundance of little gems like this that make Community IMO.

    Over all this season has been somewhat disappointing compared to the previous one.

    I completely disagree.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,871 ✭✭✭Conor108


    During the Glee episode I realised "Oh Britta's in this?" was my reaction to a lot of season 1/2 episodes but she's really become a much better character this season!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,810 ✭✭✭Seren_


    Totally agree with amacachi - I actually think season 3 has probably had the strongest opening 10 episodes of any of the seasons. Season 1 obviously hadn't hit it's stride by that stage, and the start of season 2 has a few episodes that I would consider some of my least favourites overall.

    I agree with you too conor108 about Britta. She's been class this season!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Gotta agree that the first half of season 3 has been better than both the first half of season 1 and 2... Maybe peoples expectations are too high...

    And Britta is one of the best characters, but up until this season she was literally "the worst"...

    Why are you going all "upper east side" on us.

    Why post on this thread if you hate the show so much? Surely you have better things to be doing?

    You are quite annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    You post to a thread where there are many many fans of a show, and expect your anti-community feelings to earn a round of applause?

    Where on that EW article does it say that Community cast and fans are deluded? They want a show that they like to stay alive. Hell, I want to it stay alive.
