I don't know why they're promoting Jack Black so much when they could be promoting this.

eh, just Jack Black playing Jack Black again.

Can anyone explain why the dean looks barely older than any of the students? I mean, I know it's a Community college, but still...

Liked the ending especially. Jack Black really didn't do much for me...

This show is just firing on all cylinders for me right now. Great ep. Even the stunt casting was used in a great way. I realize that all depends on your tolerance for Jack Black, but I thought they used him perfectly. Especially the throwing off the rhythm gag at the beginning.

Spoiler:

I wish that scene lasted longer than 45 seconds... but it did have some foam wrestling

Any one else disappointed that they brought back that Senior Chang guy ??

I was so happy when they said he was dead. But when he came walking through the door my blood pressure went up.

He is not funny at all and his hostile character breaks up the "fun" of the show.

I see a lot of directors giving him small parts in movies like he is going to be the next break out star... but I hate to burst their bubble but I don't know one person who finds this guy funny.

I also think he's funny. I thought his whole weird intro to Spanish 102 was hilarious.

It was right at the begining, when Jack Black explains that he's in their Spanish class. They cut to Jeff and Pierce giving their oral presentation
("F, F-") with Jack Black added to the scene, Brita "confessing" that she cheated with Jack Black added to the scene, and Brita and Annie in cheerleader outfits wrestling in soap suds as Jack Black, clad in a toga, eats a cheeseburger and watches ("That last one might have been a dream. I sleep in class a lot.")

Best episode yet. Loved the part about "character reboot" for Joel McHales character.

And Jack Black

Funny seeing him for the first time in the background while they were in study hall and he runs up and hugs them.

Jack Black was hilarious, I thought it was great to see him out in another role off the silver screen.

Chang's intro was brilliant too, absolutely love that.
