Naw, it's cool. I've got on my shun-proof hat.
Made of tinfoil.
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I liked the first two episodes, but tonight's left me with a big "Huh?" The tag was funny, and there were bits I liked, but the central premise made me keep asking which show they were parodying. A CSI type show? A Bones/Castle type of show? All of the above? Too diffuse.
And somebody - *cough* Dan Harmon - obviously thought the coin bit was way, way funnier than it was.

The tag made me laugh my ass off.
Was the color of the episode deliberately cool/blue? Because I actually fiddled with the color on our TV's setting for a while because it looked so weird.

They were definitely giving a LOOK to the episode. But after the Law & Order episode they shouldn't have gone anywhere near this territory this soon without a more solid target.
Even the credits - anyone recognize that font from another show?
Seriously, if they want to go off the deep end, they should come up with an American Horror Story parody. I'd love to see an opening credits for Community with the AHS font, music, style, etc.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm gonna say it was a little Se7en, a little Zodiac, a little The Killing, probably some stuff I don't watch. More akin to paintball and zombies than Law and Order as episodes go, but serial killers. If that makes sense to anyone who isn't me.
Anyway, I enjoyed it muchly. But not enough to shun.
And then Parks & Rec was pretty great. So I'm happy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm with Frankenbuddha on this ep. It was just weird, and not in a good way, for me.
I also think Pierce deserved more.

That was really abrupt and offputting.

Yeah, I thought it was in a different arena, and I really liked it. I laughed a lot.
