Was the taco meat a reference to something?
Oh, duh.
Note to self: religion freaky.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's the sort of show that rewards (and encourages) rewatching anyway, so you'll get the jokes soon enough. Probably ones we missed the first time round too. They're pretty jam packed.

Oh, good. I am jumping in. And if I can ever manage to watch a few DVDs, Season 1 is up next in the Netflix queue.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've just finished watching seasons 1 and 2 on DVD (the paintball episodes!). It really is superb comedy. I've had some success intriducing it to Wallybee too, which was not a given. It's thick with pop culture references, and not from her culture.

Though, this season, it looks like you might need to know:
- Inspector Spacetime is a Doctor Who analog that Abed and Troy are obsessed with that was given to Abed to placate him after the cancellation of the British Cougartown (did I get that right?). References are flying thick.
- Evil Abed and Troy from the multiverse episode might make an appearance. They had an episode where they explored the multiple possibilities of what would happen if various people went to get the pizza, and one resulted in...I can't even say. You need to see that shit for yourself. But there was evil Abed and Troy, and they made an oath.

The multiverse is the recent one with the die roll for pizza getting? That's on Hulu so I saw that. Hearing about that episode tipped me over into actually watching rather than just planning on watching sometime in the ill-defined future. Pretty incredible.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Now I want to go back and watch the whole run again.

Oh, good, I'm glad you've seen it. It was pretty remarkable. I will be disappointed if there are no callbacks to it.

That was an amazing bit of storytelling.
Perkins, I would be up for some Community and sushi or similar some lazy weekend...

OOH! That would be cool, though I would have to get S1 back from Juliana first.
