"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I watched the foosball episode again and Beau watched it too. When it got to the anime part, Beau turned to me and said, "how can they cancel this show?"

Beau doesn't even like the show as much as I (we here!) do. And he can recognize the brilliance!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

6 seasons and a movie!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The krumping coda made me completely lose it.

I seriously think that one's my favorite.

The zombie episode was so much fun

"What is up with that CAT?!?"

"Is someone THROWING IT?!?"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

To crossover with Movies, I wonder if the cat thing also goes back to Alien. Did horror movies use fake-out cats pre-Jonesy?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did horror movies use fake-out cats pre-Jonesy?

Incessantly.

Oh, man, the zombie episode is so good. It had a good commentary track, too, iirc - stuff like how they spent their music budget for the year on ABBA because nothing else worked as well.

The mean girls episode was also the trampoline, right? I find blissed out Jeff hilarious. My favorite bit from that one was probably all the little things on the targeting screens.

Thrive to spite them

Mean Girls- Robocop had the trampoline subplot.

The more I watch this the more I want to have it on dvd to watch the commentaries and extras. It looks like so much fun, with over the top and meta references and stuff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've only barely started looking at it, but it came up in an otherwise fruitless search for a quote: The Official Greendale Community College website.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I thought "this would be where they'd declare their love for each other" and then they DID!

That's the most splendid bit in an episode full of ridiculous amount of awesome, IMO. Friendship, romance, bromance -- whatever you call it, I don't care. I love them thiiiiis much together.

For the Festivids (vidding equivalent of yuletide) last year, Sisabet and Cappy made a Troy/Abed vid set to David Bowie's "Space Oddity", using the space-shuttle episode as a framing device. It's fantastic, and seriously made me tear up a little, and that clip at the window comes at the Most Perfect Moment in the song:

TROY AND ABED! *sparklehearts*

Also, this compilation of The Best of Troy Clips never fails to make me happy: [link] (bonus points for using the Passion Pit song I adore!)

I think the "we're teaching Jeff how to fiiiiiiiiiii...ght." ("I couldn't think of another word") is my favourite bit, but they're all gold.

  • sniff* Come back, show!

Aw, those are great. I do love Troy's consistent inability to come up with a cover story.
