Annie's reactions to Jeff/Britta were great. Also I know it's cheap but Chang can bring the lolz.

I just watched the season premier and directly afterwards found myself here as a result of getting high. I think I'm going to like this place. Can somebody tell me how it works?

Fantastic start to the season, loved it all but I laughed hardest at the Abed/Sherley exchange about "meta" and him wishing all the adventures could all be more like paintball.

In other words, you’re not Joaquin Phoenix.No, no, I’m not Joaquin Phoenix. I was told that somebody shit on somebody’s face in that movie. I’m not going to do that.
I just saw that movie last weekend, and yeah, that was an alarming part to see.I’m not gonna do that on camera.
If you do that, we won’t hear about it.Well, unless she tells somebody.
Oh, it’s a woman who’s getting her face shit on?Is it not a woman in the movie?
No, it’s actually Joaquin who gets shit on.Look, all I’m saying is that to be aroused, I need to shit on someone’s face, usually a woman. That’s all I’m saying. Will that make it in?
Yes, we’ll make the headline: “Donald Glover Likes to Shit on People’s Faces.”The only way Donald Glover can cum.

I think if Community were to get canned by NBC (which, who knows...they'd be dumb enough to do it), it's got the kind of fanbase that would get it picked up by Comedy Central or TBS.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 24 September 2010 15:20 (thirteen years ago) link
I hope so, but I have my doubts. It's probably going to be like Arrested Development all over again.
― (¬_¬) (Nicole), Friday, 24 September 2010 15:20 (thirteen years ago) link
Too expensive for cable, I'll bet. Either way, with Outsourced doing very well it looks like Community is first in line to get the chop to make way for Parks and Rec. It's all so cruel.
― No Good, Scrunty-Looking, Narf Herder (Gukbe), Friday, 24 September 2010 15:22 (thirteen years ago) link
I wonder how much that has to do with NBC promoing the shit out of Outsourced all summer. Here's hoping the ratings for that show nosedive in the coming weeks.

― (¬_¬) (Nicole), Friday, 24 September 2010 15:25 (thirteen years ago) link
NBC probably loves backlash at this point, so they'd probably keep it on the air just to spite people who don't like it (Outsourced, that is).
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 24 September 2010 15:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Community had about 5 million viewers, Outsourced had a 8 million.
Also, Shit My Dad Says gave 30 Rock a hell of a beating.

― (¬_¬) (Nicole), Friday, 24 September 2010 15:28 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, but Shit My Dad Says got pretty universally panned by critics beforehand and by tv watchers on twitter after its premiere. I bet the second week numbers are considerably less.
I didn't see it, so I don't know how bad it actually is.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 24 September 2010 15:29 (thirteen years ago) link
Its only the first week, I'm not going to worry about those numbers too much just yet. Lets see what October brings.

Outsourced had the benefit of The Office being a lead-in. Where are the numbers for how many of those 8 million people tuned out before the half hour was up?

from what i can tell via twitter, community folx were pleased with the ratings -- everyone was expecting a big drop due to Big Bang Theory, but in reality they were slightly higher than the ratings they were getting last season at 8:00. it's folly to compare community/30 rock ratings to the office/outsourced ratings, because people are still watching the office in large numbers for some reason.
also people were worried about My Generation potentially being big competition, but i heard it did pretty badly.

lol The League is kinda a joy for me but maybe only bc I'm into fantasy football.
― Mordy, Saturday, 25 September 2010 01:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Community numbers were level with last season, so yeah, the lack of drop-off is a good sign. Still, it was a bit of a shock that it was renewed in the first place, so with no improvements I worry how they'll handle it. I don't know what effect Zucker's exit will have.
― No Good, Scrunty-Looking, Narf Herder (Gukbe), Saturday, 25 September 2010 01:35 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm sure I'm not the only one, and I think the show is great on its own merits, but half the reason I love it so much is because all the cast members are on twitter all day long acting just like friends I have in real life. I've even had Donald and Gillian respond to things I've written to them directly, which seems inconceivable for any other show/cast currently on tv. c0rNy, sure, but when Thursday rolls around, I feel extra motivated while watching.
