It just went 2001: A Space Odyssey, and features Michael K. Williams.

Awesome.

[popsicesHoupe]

Isn't that right, Black Hitler?

[Gcromqgb]

They have been on a truly epic string of episodes lately.

I kinda want a panini for lunch.

[elects]

I spent a good portion of my lunch hour trying to find a picture of Troy reacting to that thing during the ****-goes-down-and-people-die scenario, to no avail.

I probably should have spent it doing my charts, but whatever.

[pIp83Uns]

Yes.

I hate you.

[EmxATW5m]

He does crazyeyes like no one else on network TV.

[oliverlogo]

I've got a sock with her name on it.

On a completely different topic... My favorite Troy moment was from Fistful of Paintballs, when he sees Abed, and his eyes just light up. Their friendship is the third best part of the show. After Annie's boobs.

[elalmhicabalp]

****ing awesome ****ing show. ****

[Grainiary]

Yet more proof that lawyers are dumb****s and the reason our country is in the shitter.

[TouccuraLar]

That doesn't redeem the legal profession, but it would be part of a strong application for a writing position at Red Eye w/Greg Gutfeld.

[royarnekara]

Alison Brie is so ****ing ugly. You've got to be kidding me.

Words fail.

[unlomarma]

I just watched "the Opposite" and "the Merv Griffin Show" episodes of Seinfeld (well, I'm halfway through both).

Community doesn't compare. It's great but it lacks the genius of Seinfeld.

Nobody cares, because Seinfeld might as well be as old as I Love Lucy now.

And one big advantage Community has is that you actually *like* the characters.

[Alkassyinhisk]

Even Pierce has his likeable, humane moments. The Seinfeld characters are universally dicks.

I just watched "the Opposite" and "the Merv Griffin Show" episodes of Seinfeld (well, I'm halfway through both).

Community doesn't compare. It's great but it lacks the genius of Seinfeld.

Um, so since it isn't as good as the greatest sitcom of all time, you feel like you need to crap all over it?

[Immusaatmonna]

I'd bet Ernest Borgnine is on your bucket list too.

Already scratched off.

[CGECngjA]

I'm relatively sure Community is destined to go the way of Cougar Town after this season.

[stunnyravytal]

No commentary on last week's episode? Amazing stuff.

Chevy Chase slams "Community" in new rant

(CBS News) The behind-the-scenes drama at "Community" continues.

A week after series creator Dan Harmon apologized for making an angry voicemail from cast member Chevy Chase public, their feud is making waves again because of a new leaked recording.

In the audio, obtained by Celebuzz, Chase calls the show a "f---ing mediocre sitcom."

"I want people to laugh and this isn't funny," he continued. "It ain't funny to me because I'm 67-years-old and I've been doing this a long time. I've been making a lot of people laugh - a lot better than this."

According to the website, the message is purportedly from March 2011, during the show's second season, and Harmon is playing it for production executives.

Chase expressed frustration in the recording over editorial decisions made on the show, complaining that his material was cut short in favor of romantic storylines.

"Obviously, you don't get my humor at all," he told Harmon. "Or what it is I do that's funny, that actually makes people laugh."

"I think your writing is great. I think everything you do is great," Chase continued. "But the real problem is, Dan, that you're not there when we shoot and you're not there when they edit so you don't even know what you have. You've got to give me some range."

A spokesman for Chase told Celebuzz that the voicemail was from a year ago and would not comment on it.

Tensions between the actor and Harmon first became public when Harmon played a profanity-filled voicemail from the actor. He later apologized for leaking the message.

"I made the horrible, childish, self-obsessed, unaware, naive and unprofessional decision to play someone's voicemail to me," Harmon wrote on his blog last week. "That was a dumb, unclassy, inconsiderate move on my part. I'm very sorry it's reflecting poorly on the show."

NBC has not yet said whether it will bring "Community" back for a fourth season. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_16...y-in-new-rant/

...if this is from over a year ago, what's the point in releasing it now?

[apodildNoli]

Are you kidding? This is generating publicity and will attract people interested to see if any of the Harmon/Chase tension bleeds over into the show, thus making a fourth season more likely.
