DJ, make sure you inculde this pic in every community thread, otherwise I will be greatly upset.

This show is always best when they dont focus on the leads.

Annie and Troy were great this episode.

'Cause hims so old. His body's made of wrinkles and folds. Stupid and ugly, he smell like a fart. Poo poo in his pants and poo poo in my heart.

Did it look to anyone else that just after black guy wraps himself around white girl's back as a "backpack", Chevy Chase was moving his limbs to wrap them around black woman? (Okay, I haven't learned the character's names yet.)

It was just for a second, but then it cut away. It would have been in-character for Chevy Chase, though. Deleted footage, maybe?

Abed comparing Jeff to E.T. was awesome plus Abed has a nice collection of vintage movie posters.

And some community colleges either have their own residential dorms or share them with a larger college/university.

Can't wait for "Mad Men" to end Sunday so I can stop mixing my Trudy with my Annie.

Okay, answering my own question on this. Looks like I remembered correctly. Take a look at this clip and for a split-second, you'll see CC moving as if he's going to repeat Troy's (okay, she said his name in the clip) move:

That's it, before the cut to a different scene. That scene must have been a bit longer originally.

Loved the posters in Abed's room. Were all of them robot themed? (Short Circuit 2, * Batteries not Included).

No, he had a couple of the Back to the Future posters too. Including what looked to be a rare teaser poster.

I don't know where you got 40 from. Alison Brie graduated from high school in 2001. If she were 18 at the time, she would be 26 years old. That was the consensus of the group of Community fans on DVDTalk.

Any time a current show can work in an Overboard reference it's a winner in my eyes.

I loved this episode. I just got caught up on the show last week. Abed is pretty cool pop culture junkie.

he truly is an excellent guest star. the songs last night were actually catchy and funny.

this show truly works and every character works and gels so perfectly together.

Joel doesn't even have to be in the center of it all and the supporting characters could carry just as well.

it is such a silly show, but not dumb silly and it has some heart which i always love in my sitcoms (Seinfeld exception). truly a surprise and i hope it keeps going.

my only gripe and it is minor...
the stinger at the end didn't feature Abed & Troy this time. i thought it would be a running thing having them close out each week as they have been so golden. oh well.
