I just finished binging Community, and absolutely loved it.

Anyone here watched it/wanna discuss it?

Watched the 1st four seasons. Abed and the timelines / darkest timelime are definitely the highlights. It takes serious writing talent to make the viewer somewhat like and kind-of sometimes root for a piece of s___ like Jeff.

It's (probably) my favorite live action TV comedy of all time.  The worst episode of Community is twice as good as the best episode of, say, The Big Bang Theory.  I was a fan of Joel McCale from The Soup, so I was excited about the show before it even aired and was a big fan from go.  No show is more streets ahead than Community.  There should have been less Chang and more Troy and Abed, but other than that, the show is pretty much perfect.  Hopefully we'll get a movie in a year or three.

Watched part of it with a housemate c. 2016. For reasons I can't fully explain, I began watching it from the start a few weeks ago and it has gripped my mind like a vise. On S6 now, which has sadly seen the departure of what appear to be 3 characters, but such is life. It was in the third episode, where Abed makes his first movie, that I realized "this is more than just comedy." For very similar reasons the S2 Christmas episode was very touching (and I really love Abed episodes in general). But having "meaningful" episodes in no way detracts from the downright hilarity of the entire ensemble. If only we could all stumble so organically into full on simulated post-apocalyptic paintball/pillow-blanket/floor-lava combat!

Yes but I don't like the "special" episodes where suddenly everyone is a cartoon or claymation or whatever.

I just finished it like a month a go. It's pretty good, but not exceptional. The first three seasons were fantastic but then it completely fell apart without Troy and Shirley.

Nah, the best TV comedy of all time was Roseanne.

The best TV show of all time is Parks and Rec and that's not up for debate.

Joel McHale's performance was really good, and I think my favorite character was either Britta or Jeff. Britta made me laugh the most, but Jeff definitely changed for the better the most.

And the "six different timelines" episode was just fantastic.

NBC’s lineup of Community, Parks and Rec, The Office, and 30 Rock is pretty surreal looking back on it.

I haven't gone out of my way to watch any episodes myself, but I often sat down on my computer next to my mom and watched along when she watched the show. Gotta say, I love it. The humor's not too forced, the characters are colorful, the scripts are well-written, it's just a phenomenal show.

Although, I will say that it fell a little flat when Yvette Nicole-Brown and Chevy Chase left the show. While the show wasn't the same without them, Pierce's "special complimentary gift" scene was probably one of the best moments of television history, hands down.

It's probably my second-favorite comedy after the Simpsons, and I think I've watched every episode at least three times. I think its peak was from about the midway point of the first season to the end of the third season, but even the worst season (season 4) was pretty good.
