    Stargate is better...

    If I am remembering right, that guy was in an episode or two of Stargate, right?

    Agreed. The first 10 minutes or so were great, but the episode did lose a lot of steam really fast.

    Show's still awesome, though. I'll give them a pass this time.

    Yeah, it seemed like they had an idea they wanted to get across (Troy learns what being a man is, but not how you'd expect) but they didn't seem to know where to go with it.

    I loved Annie's absurd drawl and stories, though. And Abed prattling on about Farscape.

    The Britta/Jeff thing fell flat, even though Britta is the hottest thing this side of the Sun.

    Jeff's "Who the hell was that?" line was delivered perfectly though, that line alone was better than most network sitcoms.

    I so want them to start fucking, I thought their relationship in the paintball episode was awesome, but her character has just morphed into this incredibly annoying activist she-girl man hater. Annie's definitely cute and they've had some good moments but I want more Brita like how Brita was earlier.

    I love this show, but I had to turn off last night's episode after 10 minutes (If anybody else saw it and it got better, please post because it was unwatchable with The Big Bang Theory and 2 new The League episodes DVR'ed also.).

    Props to them for trying something that was even off the wall for Community, but I want to see the real Annie dressed as a ballerina for an episode. It fell flat from the get go, and was very forced.

    I was laughing the entire episode, thought it was one of the best yet. Abed episodes are like Randy episodes of South Park, you can't go wrong.

    Community is definitely on par with Futurama for making moving episodes in the middle of a lot of funny.

    Pearce's teddy bear squeaking had me giggling the whole time.

    You have to be fucking kidding me.

    It even came up that he had posted it before I did, and asked me to review it. I thought I had double posted. But fuck it. Great minds think alike.

    Chang has the most epic entrance in this episode ever.

    This one ended way too soon.

    Right before the opening credits...
    A hell of a great way to start.

    I'll give Community credit where it's due. They managed to make about 40 incredible episodes before finally having one that was pretty pointless. Hopefully they were just too busy writing an awesome end-of-season story arc to focus on this one.

    Senor Chang almost saved it for me at the end. Then again, I would sit through Perfect Couples if it had Ken Jeong in it.

    If that preview is any indicator, tomorrows episode should be fucking awesome.

    The nature of this show allows it to tell no over-arching story and constantly ridicule and parody a different genre every week. I've never read a line of D&D, but the LOTR feel to this entire episode allowed me to follow and laugh along the entire time. I wish the assholes who fund & promote Scary/Epic/Superhero/Date movies were force-fed episodes of Community every morning with their breakfast of solid gold homeless tears.

    Hilarious episode. Troy's dance moves were fantastic and are now part of my repertoire. Plus, Chang looking like Waldo was awesome.

    "Thank God he didn't take it. Could you imagine bouncing a check to Kunta Kinte?"

    It's not even over yet and I think this is my favorite episode of the season.
