You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That made me happy. Not as happy as some other eps, but still happy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I dug it. I laughed a lot, and I missed everyone and now they're back.

It felt a little off to me, but maybe I was contaminated by having read the Grantland article, and feeling crappy from giving blood, and watching it by myself instead of with my regular Community-watching gang.
The laugh track was really disconcerting. And kind of creepifying.
Greendale Babies OMG.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The tag failed at the very end--that's the part that felt uncomfortable for me. It wasn't the funniest episode--but it was solidly in the middle of the pack, and use established plot points very carefully and appropriately, and recasting Pierce is never not ba.d.

I agree with ita ! The tag didn't work for me either.
But it was Community, and there was much rejoicing.

Yeah. the tag failed for me, mostly because I didn't get Shirley's part.

Me neither.

I'll agree. I think they made some smart choices for the episode that worked well, but the tag fell flat. Cautious optimism continuing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Wasn't Shirley's part in the tag making fun of characters with catchphrases that always got a huge laugh-track response, like "Dyn-o-MITE!!!"? That's what I assumed.
(Er, maybe everyone already got that, and just couldn't figure out what the point of making fun of it was. Sometimes I state the obvious.)
