I suppose they also could have had another alternative:
Ted & Robin end up together AND they have changed dramatically over the years. A former colleague's first wife died early in their marriage after they had 2 kids. A few years later, he met his wife and they were married for 20+ years.
At his 30th (40th?) high school reunion, he re-connected with his high school girlfriend, left his wife and married the reunion woman.
Think about the life course of this and how people have changed over decades. I can buy something like that occurring. But it seems the show couldn't pull that off either.
Am I the only one who didn't know about
the format for
tonight's Community?
In any case, I LOVE THIS SHOW.
No, it took me completely off-guard too. And once again they use
animation to make a serious point while having fun at the same time. The character names alone were worth the episode.
In closing, what Teppy said.
I've been rewatching the earlier seasons of Community, because Community; and I never noticed before how they snuck the live actors into Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas. Well played, Dan Harmon.
I fucking loved tonight's episode. I was (am) a huge fan of old school GI Joe, so to see the old characters was hilarious. Zartan's side mutter, "called it" was HILARIOUS.

The what now?
I was seriously confused for the first maybe minute. Like maybe I was on the wrong channel?
That was glorious. Although 40 is a little lower than I was thinking...

I knew they were doing a
G.I. Joe
episode but even I was like what the fuck even is this fucking episode until they finally threw me a sorta bone as to some sort of in-show explanation as to what was going on.
I think my favorite part was the commercials. "Innocence not included. Comes with Reversible Ethics."
The commercials were amazing. They really got the look right.
They really got the look right.
They did with the animation, too -- not just the style of animation being dead on for G.I. Joe of that era, but they also added all those little white specks and whatnot that made it look like an old cartoon.
Old school Saturday morning visuals all the way around.
