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

Completely not story related--how long did it take you to realise the title cards were changing as well as the narration of the credits?

I caught the title card/narration change pretty quickly, but it took me a while to notice that even the theme music was different sometimes. Also, I liked that Lindsay's card changed when she got a haircut.

There is really no way I could talk about some of the episodes, because they overlap so much.

Right? You can't really talk about the major scenes set up in the premiere because it takes the whole season to get the whole story.

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

It took a long time for the time spans between events to come into focus--and I did start watching one episode over again by mistake (Tobias going to India) and it took me way too long to realise that I'd seen that before, since it was the second time the first time anyway. Speaking of that event and things that were totally obvious in retrospect-- Maeby as the (don't squeeze the!) shaman.

I just read that Harmon was asked back to Community. And he laughed and said he'd only come back if Chevy did too. I don't even: [link]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, I'm not sure I completely have a handle on that. Some of the elapsed-times were pretty confusing.

One episode left for me, I'm gonna wait a bit before I finish it off because, I don't know why, but I am. I expect this will be a rewarding season to rewatch, but I also imagine that watching just one episode will always be difficult.

I don't know how to react to Harmon.

OH MY GOD I didn't get the "don't squeeze the shaman" joke. But holy crap, when it turned out that it was Maeby ahahahaha.

After a while, I started paying attention to every little thing because I knew it would turn out to be important somehow. But I didn't quite get the significance of the various cars that crashed in the intersection.

There will be more, right? Right?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Venture Brothers: This Sunday!

Fuck yeah! Something to fill the Archer-less void.

Though Adventure Time has been on an excellent run of episodes lately.

Well, huh, Dan Harmon back for Season 5, maybe? [link]

Harmon, who is revered by Community fans, made mention of this possible reunion with his beloved show on Sunday during a taping of his podcast, Harmontown: He said that NBC had asked him to return and quipped that he would do it only if Chase came back too, according to HollyWookiee.com.
