I had heard the same thing, askye, but I at least thought he knew how to give an interview. All the ones I found skimming for context make him sound pretty assholish. Like, not reports, but actually quotes of his words. Disdainful and clueless.
I'd like to separate him more from his character, but he's not making it easy. At least he's not racist. But he is patronising towards the women on the cast.
At least he's not racist.
it is a shame that in this day and age, we actually have to give someone credit for this.
I'm wondering if Chase hates sitcoms so much why did he agree to do one? If he needed the money you'd think there would be something else he'd pick.
Also with his reputation why did they cast him? I mean, yeah he's a big name, but obviously there have been some serious drawbacks with going for him.
I have to admit I was reluctant to watch Community at first because I thought Chevy Chase had a rep of being a jerk and I just didn't want to watch him.
I thought the comment about " the two white girls - the two pretty young girls" sounded racist.

You're definitely not alone there.

::sigh:: There is that.

It may have been appealing to get paid to be an asshole.
Of course, I think Clark Griswold is an asshole too. But I understand you're not supposed to think so.
It would have made perfect sense, plot-wise, to dump his ass at the end of S2. I've actually been mildly amused at Pierce in S3, and much less wanting to kill him with fire.
Which doesn't make Chevy Chase the actor any less of an assbag.
Going back to Community the show, I just rewatched the last ep.
Am I the only one who found the final fort face off between Troy and Abed kind of hot, as well as ultimately sad?
It made me worried that writers think making them arch-nemesis to each other is the next step. Theoretically I can get behind that, but not on this show. NO!
When they were holding off the mob and protecting the dean, and right after shared a look, that's what makes me sure it will all be all right. Eventually.
