antsays...And John Woo's movies.
Sarzysays...>> ^shuac:
Yes.
Okay, here's a few:
-It's hilarious.
-It's one of the smartest shows on network TV right now.
-It's got a great ensemble cast.
-It's amazingly self-aware, but not in a smug way.
-The way it uses movie parodies is downright brilliant (eg. this paintball episode, or the episodes this season that parodied zombie movies and space movies).
I could go on, but I'll just say that Community is one of the best shows on TV right now, and that I pity the fool that isn't watching it. The first few episodes were kind of so-so, but it's really developed into something special.
*quality
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Sarzy.
KarlHungussays...If you are not watching Community, than I'm afraid to say: you're doing it wrong.
shanedawg2k7says...I don't watch many episodes of Community, but am I ever glad I caught this one. I was in tears by the end.
kymbossays...Ok, while I am glad that Community vids are getting sifted, you have completely ruined this episode for me now, you bastard.
dan00108says...ahem

shuacsays...I've never regretted not relying on network television sitcoms for my comedic needs. Books and movies do the job well. For one thing, network sitcoms all tend to be jealously formulaic. Individual episodes also tend to be silo'd to prevent any sort of character-arc from developing because, well, we can't have that in a comedy, can we? The last good network sitcom I've ever seen was Arrested Development, which at least made an earnest attempt to buck these boring conventions. And look at the show now...oh wait, it was cancelled.
However, in the years spent here, I've learned that Sarzy and I have very comparable tastes in movies, which counts for quite a lot, so his endorsement has prompted me to check this show out.
Cheers!
(Not Cheers the TV show, I meant Cheers in the goodbye/thanks/good job combo.)
rogueWRXsays...This episode aired months ago. What's the statute of limitations on spoilers?

dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
Might watch it. It's been a while since an American comedy show hit me in the right spot.
ForgedRealitysays...Silly.
Question though: Why does that big pink gun make a whirring sound? Do they think nobody has ever shot/owned a paintball gun before?
kymbossays...Holy crap! The comment that this was on months ago has been sitting in my mind. Just realised I missed the last four episodes of Series 1! Thank Google for the Sift.
