"Community" TV Show (1 Viewer)

The show is based on his life, he went back to Community college. I seem to recall an interview with him where he remembers growing to love the "losers" in his class and how they all looked up to him. Will try and root it out

From Wikipedia:

The premise of Community was based on Harmon's real-life experiences. In an attempt to save his relationship with his then-girlfriend, he enrolled in Glendale Community College northeast of Los Angeles, where they would take Spanish together.

Harmon got involved in a study group and, somewhat against his own instincts, became closely connected to the group of people with whom he had very little in common. "...I was in this group with these knuckleheads and I started really liking them," he explains, "even though they had nothing to do with the film industry and I had nothing to gain from them and nothing to offer them."

New 13 episode season due to start in the next few weeks has been postponed. No air date planned. Bah!

This show is so silly, but a couple of times an episode it really kicks me in the funny nuts

I just nearly joked on a goddamn Weezer joke from Season 1

Here's an onset picture from the other day - shooting the season finale, and possibly last show ever...

I'm getting to see them all as if they were new.

I had totally given up on the sitcom, tbh.

its a great show. Some dud episodes for sure, but great characters, especially Chevy Chase.

Chevy's character is like the one squeaky wheel for me, and I generally like him.

Only 4 episodes in though.

I just finished season two. This show cracks me up despite it being dumb and generally something I would hate like Scrubs. The only character that ruins it for me is the Asian dude. Always that one step too far with him. I just like all the subtle (some not so subtle) references to other things in the dialogue. Very quotable.

The workaday episodes are pretty good. It's not quite Scrubs, Community is generally strange/weird where scrubs is "zany". But I get the point. For me it's the episodes like the paintball that make it great.

God I hate Scrubs so much.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Ah, I like Scrubs.

God I hate Scrubs so much.

So do I, with a passion. Community, I like. I am continually making notes in my head to quote later. Each episode there is at least one great line that makes me laugh hours later. It's worth it for that alone.

Britta: You're not going to Annie's party?
Jeff: I have a conflict. It conflicts with the enjoyment of my life.

Don't think I won't use this in the future because I will. Oh, I will.

Oh Christ, I accidentally just saw that Braff's face. Jaysus.

Chevy's jumped ship, with a couple of episodes of the 4th series still to shoot:

No big surprise, really, given all the feuds. With NBC delaying the air date for months you'd have to think that this will be the last season they do anyway, unless several million extra viewers tune in.
