Tonight's episode was brilliant. Started out slightly meh, but soon went galactic.

That...was French Stewart playing the French Stewart impersonator, wasn't it?

yeah, definitely. that chang closing bit was great

Wow, this show and I might be on the outs.
I'm a little intrigued: normally, there is plenty of discussion after a Community ep so I might not be the only one who feels this way.

i dunno about that second half.
― j., Saturday, 24 March 2012 03:34 (twelve years ago) link
That was just self-parody: not about a community college study group, not about advancing the characters' relationships, not about anything except the show's own tropes. The characters were just weak caricatures of themselves.

I think the only time I laughed was at "both versions of Michael Jackson".

Hm, OK, maybe some Troy/Abed stuff is important. Still, felt off somehow.
that chang closing bit was great
no it wasn't

What an awful, awful show that god is punishing us with.

Guys Chang was pretty awful this episode, but I liked the rest of it! The bit with Troy and Abed in the bedroom was kinda sweet and touching! lolled hard at the meta evil twin thing

Oh, man. Did you not get the memo? Yeah, we hate this thing we loved a couple months back. We're only still watching because we hate ourselves too much to watch stuff we actually like. NBD.
― General Scheherazod (Deric W. Haircare), Saturday, 24 March 2012 04:06 (twelve years ago) link
also this ep mostly sucked. i liked dean's reaction to jeff in aviators
― althea and (donna rouge), Saturday, 24 March 2012 04:06 (twelve years ago) link
Chang was the worst part but I also thought the whole premise of Abed being addicted to renting celebrity impersonators was dumb and self-parodic (as I may have alluded to) and completely unengaging. Same with the way the Jeff plot was handled: the way his narcissism was dealt with in e.g. the pottery class episode worked so much better. This was so heavy-handed.

Thats not meta thats a Star Trek riff. And didn't they already do an evil twin episode? Or am i thinking Futurama or something?
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Saturday, 24 March 2012 04:28 (twelve years ago) link
its a Star Trek riff AND a meta reference. yr mind = blown.

"Evil Troy and Abed" appeared in the 'chaos theory' ep.

senor chang used to be funny, but no longer, alas
abeds at the end was . . . promising? hope they try to retrieve him, expect it'll be ignored
tbf if my apt had a dreamatorium i'd be in there 24/7

If the rest of the season is going in the direction of the latest episode, I am strapping the fuck in for this ride.

i've made up a face and everything
think my fav part of this episode (which wasn't great, though I liked the Abed/Troy rift) was the Dean crawling on the floor.

did you get something else out of "both michael jacksons" before the costume reveal? that was sorta what i pictured from the jump

i took it to be the obvious skin-color joke everyone made in elementary school. or on "slow jamz" if you're kanye.

What I'm trying to say is remove every scene with Chang and replace it with a scene with the Dean because that equals...

i. i am starting to enjoy how much of a 'thing' the study-room shops are becoming, always as cold opens or immediately following the creditsii. but it makes for very slow/measured openings, which is ... maybe a mistake for a show perpetually on the verge of cancellationiii. although maybe just the 'welcome back you guys!!' stuff threw meiv. dean crawling was greatv. so was jeff hulking outvi. but being too proud of themselves to set the gag up properly really suckedvii. actually structurally the whole celebrities sequence was a little off, like they'd gone 'they'll all be dressed as celebrities! and then ... stuff happens!' viii. although i have no idea who french stewart is so maybe that was whyix. chevy still great

I assume everyone caught that when Jeff was coming down on the side of the road, shirtless in his torn pants, they were playing the sad Hulk piano music?
― Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 24 March 2012 13:00 (twelve years ago) link
i did but only, i suspected, from having seen family guy (?) use that gag.
i did think the welcome back stuff was confusing. weren't they just already back?

Last week's episode was meant to be third in this season re-start, but they pushed it up because they felt it would be a bit more indicative of how the group dynamic works and it was a little more...normal.
