I would love it if they bring on another old guy to replace Pierce and just have everyone seem puzzled for a second and then shrug it off and continue as if nothing had changed.

I think that boat sailed a long time ago...the good news is that it's been outperforming 30 Rock and Up All Night since it came back from hiatus.

Yeah after all the hoopla of it getting put on hiatus and then coming back, you would think they would pick better episodes to lead off with.


The last two were enough to scare off anyone who was on the fence about this show after seeing the first two episodes since it came back.

I think you people may be underestimating the popularity of ken burns

anyone with a college education got that, anyone with a high school education at least understood what they were trying to do

you people just love to pat yourselves on the back

it's not about "getting it"

It just wasn't a good episode for somebody new to the show, that has no idea of who the characters are and the way the show works in general

^Yep. I watch both, but I do think that BBT and other laugh track shows are a much simpler comedy show than ones like 30 Rock and Community. And as somebody who just recently rewatched all of The Civil War on Netflix, I LOVED last weeks episode of Community.

I did not realize they were spoofing "The Civil War", because I have never seen it. But I still thoroughly enjoyed last week's episode.

Same.

I just thought it was another quirky Community episode that was being told in a different way. I like the way they mix things up, it keeps it fresh.

he's referencing stuff from last season. i think this is an old phone call that's just now leaking due to all the other stuff going on.

Chevy is right. The funniest thing I've seen so far from Community was an ad hoc promo they shot before the first season. Just Joel and Chevy trading insults. It was great. The pilot also had some very deep and witty dialogue. Chevy got duped into being an extra in a shitty teeny-bopper drama, I feel sorry for him.

the pilot is fine, it's not as weird or idiosyncratic as the show is in general but if it had been I doubt the show would have lasted as long as it has.

so shows arent allowed to get better

I dont really feel like explaining the concept of character development to you but yes, the first 3-4 episodes or so of season 1 were just not that good, but it got better

the first 3-4 episodes aren't 25% of the season, and somebody who watches multiple fairy tale shows lecturing me about character development is laughable.

you get the idea, the show started a lot closer to the likes of bbt or 2 and a half men, if thats your thing then fine. I think its lazy comedy

and what can I say, I have broad tastes

^haha

^^^^I realize the default for insulting a comedy is saying it's like 2.5 Men or BBT, but that's lazy as fuck and totally inapplicable to Community at ANY point in it's run. Was it fully formed right out of the gate? No, but it wasn't shitty or lame either. Maybe you need to go back and watch the beginning of the first season again, because the seeds of it's later awesomeness are planted right from the start.

ok so we sort of agree

we both realize that the first few episodes were not as good as the rest, but I claim them to be not good to average and you still liked them. agree to disagree, and yes the bbt and 2 1/2 men comment was lazy and exaggerated, but it was a lot closer to a traditional sitcom than it is now

^^you have no room to talk buddy!
