Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

I had sort of cooled to Community but this episode was genius.

Senor Chang as Chow Yun Fat? Oh my god, that was amazing.

I confess that one of the things I liked most was the limited Chevy screen time. He/his character sort of drag the whole thing down for me.

Ah, I'd completely forgotten why I was so adamant about never watching an episode. Thanks for refreshing my memory.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yeah, Chevy's shtick is pretty old. He does more pratfalls than early Wesley. And yes, I know it was A Thing on SNL but I don't care.

All the other characters have quirks that make you either care about, or be amused by them. Chevy's toxic leerer shtick is WAY old.

I loved the dean even more in this episode. His 'still in the room' was a great throw away.

it was A Thing on SNL
It seems that he views himself as the great Silverback of comedy but he isn't all that...wasn't even all that back in the heyday. I loved Fletch but that was about it.

Now, it's just icky.

Nah, I despise Chevy Chase and yet still love Community.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Yeah, also not a fan. But then, most physical comedy doesn't really work for me so.. I haven't been watching Community mostly cause it's hard to keep up with everything. But I usually like it when I see it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Well spoken, Chenoweth. My Dad claims he can't buy Neil Patrick Harris as stright. My family is openly pro-tolerance and it drives me batty when Dad says that. We just don't talk about HIMYM anymore.

You know, I put stock in my gaydar, but I never even considered NPH as gay.
