Community, the tv show

sure, don't watch the funniest show on tv

I don't know which show you're talking about, Mordy, but it's not this one.

Too bad he didn't give us a link or something

oh lol the stylesheet I'm using doesn't make links apparent. will be changing.

ep 4 easily the best so far imo

yeah this was a pretty good

I enjoyed 3 and 4 quite a bit actually.

It's been getting dramatically better starting with ep 3. Ep 5 the best so far; loved Chang's line about, "I was their Spanish teacher; then they couldn't figure out anything interesting to do with me" or something.

"jesus WEPT" had me in tears. Enjoyed first few Eps. But I really don't care about any of these characters anymore, they're just ciphers for the next joke.

Like, none of them interact as if they actually know each other.

yeah this is in some ways more like watching a well-rehearsed improv troupe than, like, a show about humans at this point

Yahoo Screen just launched a new show from Paul Feig starring a bunch of commercial actors, plus Joel and Trace from MST3K. Anyone seen it yet?

I've been enjoying the petty Annie v Britta flatmate rivalry (especially the fact that Jeff has nothing to do with it), but yeah, this.

the last episode with the email leaks was a little better on that front

I have had zero inclination to go back to this show after the first two episodes

I watched the third, didn't think it was measurably better than the first two, have thrown in the towel.

this was always a show that I wanted to end after Season 3 or so because I wanted it to go out on top. Quality over quantity. bleh.

gonna check this out now. i'm pretty annoyed that Yahoo hasn't put any ads for this show on Community, considering it might actually appeal to Community viewers more than the show they do run ads for constantly, Sin City Saints starring Tom Arnold.

Watched the first half or so of Other Space this weekend. it's cute, very MST3K (obviously), like a very low budget live action version of Futurama at points. Not amazing, but fun enough and it's some good potential. Really like the whole cast.

yeah i watched the first two eps of Other Space over the weekend, they were very fun!

weird to think that joel shows up in two shows I'm watching now (steven universe being the other).

car scene with the child cybercrime expert made it worth sitting through about 40 minutes of not very funny community.

after being entertained but utterly uninvested this most recent episode is the first i've really liked, and the first where it's felt there's been any kind of real group dynamic to latch on to

i mostly enjoyed this completely ridiculous episode abt the movie despite myself

-just watched the first episode of Other Space and liked it
-there is totes some really great Community moments this season; things we would of normally quoted a lot more by now

xpppp
Steven Universe has moved to the top rank in my Cartoon Network lineup. so much respect for that show
It's a little late now and also unrelated but since 'Over The Garden Wall' only got mentioned once in another thread, I'll go ahead here and back up the sentiment that it is one of the best things CN has ever produced.

^^ the frog boat

Haven't been feeling this season much at all but I really enjoyed the giant hand one. The scene with the couple at the end was incredible.

Disliked the Star Wars one a lot, it felt very Season 4 in its combination of being underwritten and also trying too hard.

I watched a bunch of SNL videos today that were supposedly the best of this season. Every time one of the videos ended, the newest episode of Community began to autoplay in the video player. I guess that's one way to get people to watch this garbage!

Has any critic who used to vocally ride for this show come out and said "I was wrong; this show sucks" yet? Feels like even most of its biggest proponents washed their hands of it long ago, but it would be really satisfying to hear just one admit it's always been gimmicky garbage

that would be pretty dishonest

maybe they could also whip themselves or cut off a pinky

if it's always been garbage then why are you posting here during season 6 on a thread that rarely gets bumped. what the fuck do you care?

I realized the other day that I missed maybe 3-4 episodes of this season. Watched one last night (something about an RV and a giant hand), and it was ok (better than anything in S4, not as good as S5), but aggressively reinforced how much Shirley and Troy are needed. It really just made me want to watch a S1-S3 episode.

this yahoo season is not amazing (at least not so far - i'm up to ep 7) but it turns out that i can enjoy watching anything that has cpt david anderson in it

The wedding episode was terrible, but it had O-Lan Jones as Garrett's mom! And this season's paintball episode was pretty solid.

internet dudes are posting that Annie's Missing Lover gif everywhere, who'd have thunk it

Elroy encouraging white people is one of the very few lolling moment of S6.

very weird ending. i liked it - back to the sappy depressing roots of the show
amazing tag too

I'd hate to not see the final episode, but I dropped it after the first 3. Is there some stuff I need to know if I go in blind, or should I just suck it up and watch the episodes I didn't?

(S6 episodes, that is...I was all caught up to this season in case that wasn't clear.)

honestly no, just know that the last few episodes of the season focus on Jeff's fear of being abandoned and left behind as a general theme

but c'mon man, it's season six! i think there were plenty of funny moments to make the season worth "toughing" out. i say suck it up JF

Ok cool. I'll do it. I owe it to them I guess for how much joy I got out of S1-S3.

The last month or so was probably the most consistent of the season? Really it's all pretty good from the grifting episode on.

yeah they hit a nice groove by the end. the structure of the finale irritated me but still a lot of good moments.

Second half of S6 was pretty funny, they worked out how to integrate Elroy and Frankie and just ran from there. The run from the giant hand through to Garrett's wedding was very enjoyable.

If you're going to catch up I'd probably recommend the first half of S5 though, before Troy leaves - that run is really good and pretty close to recapturing the form of the series imperial phase IMO. The show lost a lot of heart when Donald Glover and Yvette Nicole Brown left and didn't quite work out how to recapture that - they shouldn't even try to make the movie without both of them involved.

Towards the end I found myself extremely irritated with Harmon's habit of making meta jokes about the show's obvious faults rather than addressing them, but on balance I'm glad S6 exists.

I didn't watch this season due to being busy. I really wish they'd just ended it after Season 3. 5 was p good but nothing like the prime. I'll probably watch it eventually. what were the best eps?

the garrett's wedding episode was great!

Me too.

The final episode was pretty funny. Chang never became anything more than a cartoon character but had some of the funniest moments all season.
