doesn't jeff accept being a narcissistic asshole prone to grandiose speeches at the end of… the pilot?
OTM.

The breakthrough character is Abed, who understands that he lives in a tv show.

Have never really given a shit about Jeff and Annie and was overjoyed when Harmon tied that one up. Whereas Britta gets funnier the dorkier she becomes.
I think Jeff wrongfoots a lot of people early on because the show seems to be setting him up as the cool guy when a lot of viewers think he's a twat, it takes a while to realise that the show thinks he's a twat too and gets a lot of comic mileage out of that.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 27 December 2014 12:46 (nine years ago) link
Ha, maybe I like the early episodes so much because he always seemed like he was supposed to be a twat.

"to me"
I mean, he starts out as a fraudulent disbarred lawyer who is trying and failing to cheat his way through a bottom-tier community college diploma and desperately hit on a woman.

Still so much of the early Jeff stuff was about him being a reluctant leader who could tie the group together and make inspirational speeches. He took a darker turn later on.

Seen up to episode 19 now. Liking it more.
Jeff looks so much like British comedian Greg Davies.
Like how they kept up the creepy mascot.

The stuff about the Dean's Dalmatian fixation was funny. But the best thing was the keytar with the screaming samples.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 28 December 2014 19:29 (nine years ago) link
annie's "no" scream is amazing

That joke about Paul Giamatti was a bit too cruel though.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 28 December 2014 20:08 (nine years ago) link
The show thrives on recurring gags, so you should often be delighted.

This picture looks so empty and it makes me sad. The cast has really thinned out.

That promo pic makes me want to actively avoid the show.

Abed totally bringing the false joy.
This is really the last season, right? Gilliam Jacobs has a new show happening somewhere.

i like everyone in that picture and am looking forward to the show but it definitely feels like a bummer that they're down to 4 of the original 7 core study group cast members.
― some dude, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 21:51 (nine years ago) link
i genuinely don't think this season would be happening if Abed had said "five seasons and a movie" in that one episode.

Does the Yahoo thing cost money?
― jmm, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 21:54 (nine years ago) link
xp that's very true
Also, I'll restate what I said previously. No Shirley, no credibility.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 21:55 (nine years ago) link
Yahoo is ad supported afaik.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 21:56 (nine years ago) link
Dan Harmon has just said, that as long as people like it, he will keep on doing it, up to season 20 or something. In a way, that was how it always should have been. The show is about communities, the insularity of the study group always made them seem like a bunch of assholes. But it's still sad :(

According to the promo, Professor Slater is back:

Which...yeah, that was a funny run in season 1. But as a full cast member?

i mean...she presumably still works at the school where the show takes place, they're not bending time and space or anything.
― some dude, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 22:09 (nine years ago) link
why didn't they just shoot a promo pic with the new study group members? they have new people right?
― linda cardellini (zachlyon), Tuesday, 13 January 2015 22:48 (nine years ago) link
if so, the audience don't know them yet, so wouldn't feel warm and fuzzy to see them in a photo
the cast was always intended to shift and change if they made it past year 3 - it's the weird embattled nature of the production that's kept it so consistent

It's ad supported, so only with your time. Glad I discovered there's a Yahoo Screen app for the Roku so I can actually peep this shit on a television.

They'll probably release one for the PS3 sooner or later. I love my Roku, though, and think everyone should have one. :)

i have a Sony box that allows me to watch Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc. shows on TV, so it bums me out that it doesn't have any Yahoo capability to pay this, but w/e, i'll watch Community on my laptop if i have to.
watched the first episode this morning and there were a few laugh out loud moments, as expected there were meta jokes about the cast changes but the gag about Shirley was hysterical.
