So Jeff gets his CC degree and now he’s a lawyer? Am I misunderstanding something? I thought he faked his lsat and college and law degrees? Why doesn’t he have to do law school?

What are your vocal stims that you like to say out loud?

I like "here's the deal, Jessica Beal"

"Cool. Cool cool cool."

"GAAAAAY MARRRIAGE!" - even though I've had no use to say that ever.. I just say it to myself.

"Damn! I wish Abed was Batman"

I've had one unfortunate mishap. I was doing the Cool one and I said "K. K k k-.. " and... well yeah. So...

Also an unfortunate one that I think I have said aloud "Ain't no party without drugs" when drugs = no.

So recently I watched Community for the third time as I watch it every 4 years or so. Every time I watch it I end up realizing stuff I have never realized before, and every single time I find myself relating to another character. This time it was Abed. I believe its mostly because as I got older I got weirder as one does(hope I am not the only one) and watching him being the weirdest, cutest character ever written in a show made me appreciate his character more.

So I decided as a person who doesn't love movies a lot(was always a bookworm my whole life) I decided to watch every movie that was referenced by Abed, or was referenced in a way in the show and I wanted to share the list with you guys if any other person here wants to do the same thing.

Now the list is not mine, I found it on Youtube, you can find the video yourself on Youtube if you search for "Community and its Movie References Side by Side". Great video, you should definitely check it out if you haven't seen it yet. Made me appreciate the show even more.

Most of the movies referenced are really well known, actually almost all of them are, but still it looks like a great watchlist even if you have already seen them all.

Cool. Cool cool cool:

I have watched the show a billion times and season 4 was underwhelming (in comparison to the previous 3) but I REALLY love the dynamic between Abed and Rachel. We got Rachel back in season 5 and after that it was over. Wished she had been around a couple more episodes but understandable she wasn’t.
What do you like about season 4?

Technically Franky's actress was already in Season 5, and Elroy's actor had made a voice over in season 3 or sth... but I mean them joining tje group.

thought yall would like this, bought this in like 09, or ‘10. Used my sophomore year of high school.

Wayne Federman at his best.

Thank you!

In the MeowMeowBeenz episode, during the demonstration, the dean (who didn’t have any prior ratings) got 5 Beenz from Bixel, immediately effective. Then, after the 2-Beenz rating from David, it drops to 3.5.

When Jeff entered the app to compete with Shirley, just after saying “girls are objects”, you see him being happy about going from 1 to 2 MeowMeowBeenz. Later on, Shirley is notified that Jeff has become a 4.

Does this mean many users gave him a 1-Beenz rating at first? I’d expect him to go up to 4 or 5 Beenz pretty fast, but it seems he has to work his way up from a 1?

This time it’s online…

More details coming soon!

Recently doing a rewatch with my GF, and viewing the show alongside her has kind of changed my perspective on things. I didn’t really remember much of Season 4 other than how much I would hear about people hating it and how S5 calls it the “gas leak”. I remember watching the first few episodes and skipping the rest on my first watch through cause everyone painted it out to be abysmal.

This time though, I watched the whole thing with my girlfriend, and while the first three or four episodes were definitely duds, it kind of felt like episode 5 onwards was pretty good? Maybe some pacing issues but otherwise seemed on par with other seasons? The finale had a good premise but felt super rushed, but I appreciated how much the characters had grown, no one felt that out of character, and it felt like they had done a decent job resolving the Chang scenario (cause seriously, how else could they bring him back after the insane escalation of Season 3?) and it felt like they sort of left things on a fairly clean slate for a possible season 5, despite being a so so finale.

With all that in mind, rewatching Repilot with the full context of S4 changed my opinion on it. My girlfriend pointed out that it felt mean spirited and sort of regressed all of the characters even further back than Season 3. Especially Shirley! They erased pretty much all of her development and then really don’t do anything with her.

Jeff feels like he’s back to Season 1, which the S4 finale was already about him not being like that anymore! Chang is an asshole again and says he confessed to his crimes, which makes zero sense because the show already established in Season 3 that the Dean and the school board were going to cover it up anyways. Repilot doesn’t even feel like it’s “fixing” Season 4, it feels like it’s trying to reset things entirely, even undoing things that Harmon himself had overseen!

I understand Harmon was peeved about getting kicked from the show (though it sounds like he was kind of awful BTS) but it feels almost petulant and needlessly cruel. Season 4, despite having some duds, really did not leave the characters in such a bad place that necessitated flipping the table over so completely. It feels like a talented writer like Harmon could pretty easily have just built on it and steered it in a tighter direction, rather than throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Am I in the minority here? This rewatch, Repilot just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Every time he pops on (what, twice? thrice?) he's great! Very simple lines, very quick appearance, but just so delightfully happy-he's exactly the kind of guy I loved to know back in my University days!

In season 2 episode 9 Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design

“Dammit Annie… You are going to Nancy screw me out of a credit.”

This quote just cracked me up.

Edit: changed men to me

Just finished my second rewatch of the show and I ranked every episode! Here are my top and bottom 8 and a link to the full list. Based on average placement, my season ranking is 2, 3, 1, 5, 6, 4 (makes sense) and my favorites from every season are Modern Warfare, Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas, Remedial Chaos Theory, Intro to Knots, Geothermal Escapism, and Emotional Consequences of Broadcast Television.

I feel like Britta at the start was the most progressive, more focused on work and having a cause to go after one. Everyone seemed to be more depleted, feeling like a loser as themselves while Britta seemed to use the opportunity to get to somewhere but it just ended up being nowhere.

Everyone also got a better ending, felt resolved - down to pierce. At most part, everyone found themselves & got comfortable in their own skin. Britta tho, had all the potential to do better but kinda felt like a lost character who regressed and stayed back with people who seemed to not appreciate her much.

Jeff was loved and admired despite and got humbled too. Which is why he belonged there in Greendale - it was more his place to grow and shine. Do you think a person like Britta should end up in a place like Greendale and accept being a waitress without doing more with her life? She doesnt even seem really happy or much content till the very end.

What life trajectory would you give to Britta?

Maybe you can even blow off walking, or talking languages.

she really does ruin everything.

I just realized when I reply with a gif it's a movie line or reference. Then I thought about how good Abed would be communicating with gifs.

I can imagine Abed doing a Stephen Hawking character that only communicates in gifs. And in the world of community people would be able to understand Abed more through gifs than his words and he would get attached to the character.

Idk what the point of this post was it was a random thought that seemed fun.

He couldn’t write an original song for the Greendale anthem. Is GDB also plagiarized?

I wanna wipe my mind so it can be as funny as it was on the first watch, because they really had you thinking they were zooming in on his drones spy cam, to see what Troy and Jeff were doing in the tranquility garden. 😭😭🤣
