As a heads up, the finale is an hour long this season and will be another paintball episode. How ever it is going to be more epic.

Also, Donald Glover is a hilarious rapper. Freaks and Geeks is an awesome song.

Weird to hear him cuss so much though, haha, hilarious.

Just to note, Community gets some of the lowest ratings on tv. Like lower than Chuck. Hopefully that means Chuck gets picked up too.

community's 18-49 rating (all that really matters to advertisers) is pretty good though, higher than Chuck's, and considering it goes up against the Big Bang Theory which is the highest rated comedy in 18-49, it's a success

It has the worst time slot of any of the NBC comedies and still puts up decent numbers

Really, when I was looking it showed them pulling in like 4-5 million people an episode and that's it. Not that Chuck's is any better.

Both shows are among the best on tv (in my opinion) but get some of the lowest ratings for viewers.

Put down the chicken fingers and grab yourself a Royale with cheese because the study group is throwing a "Pulp Fiction" party for Abed's birthday! . . . tune in to NBC at 8/7c TONIGHT!

Barnes · 03-24-2011, 09:54 PM

Umm... Wow.

Abed's monologue was so well written and acted. So serious, hilarious, sharp, cutting (at the expense of another CBS sitcom) and a poop payoff.

I consider myself a pretty intelligent person but I fear this show may be too smart for me.

octothorp · 03-24-2011, 09:59 PM

Yeah, just brilliant. At first I was disappointed that they didn't do more with the Pulp Fiction theme, but as the episode went on it became clear they were doing something far more interesting than a PF parody.

Saint Troy · 03-24-2011, 10:01 PM

That was brilliant tonight, especially if you check out "My dinner with Andre", they nailed the voice overs and tone.

Lionel Steel · 03-24-2011, 10:38 PM

This season has been amazing so far. The whole cast has really come into their own.

It's approaching Arrested Development levels of hilarity.

"Pulp Fiction? Yeah, I saw it on the airplane. It's cute. It's a 30 minute film about a group of friends who like cheeseburgers, dancing, and the bible."

The end skit was hilarious. I love the show, but I find the end skit that Abed and Troy do are always the funniest part of the show.

Abed is hilarious because he is so calm when he says "I'm going to run".

d_phaneuf · 03-25-2011, 12:03 PM

I thought the best part was the end as well

"what market do you shop at?!?!?!"

Cowperson · 03-25-2011, 02:28 PM

Loved the subtle nature of the thing.

You kept waiting for Abed to bust out into his old self in those opening 10 minutes or so, leaning forward toward the TV, waiting, waiting, waiting with antici . . . . pation but he kept to his Dinner With Andre character brilliantly. And that too was all part of his act.

And Annie, Annie, Annie, dressing as Amanda Plummer but really channelling a youngish Elizabeth Taylor . . . . . . "sigh."

Can't wait for her in Mad Men again.

The showrunners from Cougar Town and Community are friends as far as I know and it's more a polite nod to each other.

IF you watch Cougar town or have read interviews with the creator, he has said several times that Cougar Town is probably the worst name for the show and he's embarassed by it.

Community, Parks and Rec and the Office were all amazing last night.

It is a crime against humanity that Jim Parsons has an Emmy and Danny Pudi does not.

A crime I say!

Donald Glover will be an EGOT.

I get the Scrubs connection between the 2 shows and I guess they were really only making fun of the name Cougar Town.

Well I got to say, this latest episode was effing fantastic. Best of the series, better than Modern Warfare.

I had to pause the Dean scene just to laugh for 2 minutes, then he came out with 5 more. Freaking amazing.
