Comedy 1: A Little Song, a Little Dance, a Little Seltzer Down Your Pants
This thread is for comedy TV, including network and cable shows. [NAFDA]
I have S3 through iTunes, and I play TV shows on my iPod and stream the audio through the car stereo when I drive to/from work. I cannot tell you how many times I've played Remedial Chaos Theory during my commute.
I tried that, but I can't not look. Didn't make it to the freeway onramp.
Though I am making myself watch the earlier S3 episodes before I watch it, and they really weren't all that good.
I seem to remember there was some okay, and then pimp slaps of awesome. Before the hiatus, and then after. Of course, I could look back in this thread, or at the ep title list or something, but...work. Comedy's not supposed to be work. Well, not my work. Former life.
In my opinion, the first three were mediocre at best, and then Remedial Chaos Theory was TOTALLY AWESOME and then the Halloween ep was okay, but not S2 good.
That's as far as I have gotten though.
Got my season 3 discs and watched Remedial Chaos Theory again tonight. Perversely this was the first episode of Community I ever watched, but haven't seen it since. Even though I didn't get much of what was going on with the characters the first time I saw it, I thought structurally it was one of the most brilliant...anythings I'd ever seen - movie, stage or TV. Having seen it again with my having watched everything leading up to it - OH MY FUCKING GOD! HOWDIDTHISHAPPEN!?!!?!?
So awesome. So dense in detail. I. AM. IN. AWE. Still...
Perversely this was the first episode of Community I ever watched, but haven't seen it since.
Kind of like starting Buffy with "Superstar," huh?
I watched all the DVD extras (not all the commentaries), and I missed Dan Harmon's grading of the cast. Guess they weren't able to film that what with the...stuff. But the two behind-the-scenes featurettes are good.
Alison Brie needs to stop breaking into white girl rap all the time because it just makes me adore her more and more.
Confession time: (though not for -t, who has already heard this).
While I fricking love Remedial Chaos Theory and think it is amazingly brilliant, I think I actually like the Glee Christmas ep more.
