Ok, never seen the show until this weekend. Netflix'd the first 2 discs of season 1 and watched them all back-to-back. This show is damn funny, though I really don't like Jeff (well, probably has more to do with Joel). Now I can't wait for the rest of the discs to come in the mail.
Fuck, when you posted that below the comment talking about the Dean, I thought this was gonna be about him not coming back. That'd be devastating. I like Chevy though.
It would suck to lose Chevy, but it wouldn't be a body blow to the show. Pierce is a pretty stereotypical character--old guy who says outrageously offensive things--and as such isn't among the show's more innovative creations (it would hurt A LOT more if, say, Danny Pudi left the show), and characters like Chang can pick up the slack in the saying-outrageously-offensive-things department.
On hiatus from any new mafia commitments.

Community is not as good as it used to be... But I do still enjoy it.
Troy and Abed are still my favorite characters.
I used to like Jeff... but now I don't know what to think of him.
I feel like I actually used to care for these characters, and now they've degraded a lot to the point of me even hating some of them sometimes <_<
"There are many times when this doesn't seem like a community college at all. Particularly this year ... I think we've gone way south. And way north. It doesn't even appear to have anything to do with college. It's got its own secrets that reside in the creator of the show [Dan Harmon]. What does it mean, really? I think you could just as well take these people and put them in a bar every week, and have nothing to do with academics or anything else, and we'd still have the same basic interactions. The community college thing sort of went down the drain this year."
Chevy Chase pretty much sums up my problems with Community as of late.

Chevy does make some good points, there. S2 was kind of this perfect mix of college and not-college. I liked the wedding episode and the Kim/Subway storylines in the recent episode because they dealt with things specifically on campus and got us back into Greendale's atmosphere. I want more episodes like D&D, or the Annie's Pen episodes -- heartfelt, hilarious episodes that don't need dramatic setpieces to do well, just good characters.

I agree with this oh so much.

Hulu's "A Day in the Life" installment on Joel McHale offers a sneak peek at some details of one of the closing scenes of the season finale.
It is a courtroom scene, set in a classroom, with Dean Pelton dressed up as a traditional British judge, powdered wig and all. Rob Corddry's character is present and is sitting at the opposite counsel's table as Joel.

That must be the big Law & Order episode I've heard a lot about.
I wasn't a huge fan of the last episode. It was an interesting storytelling technique, but the episode lacked the "punch" it needed to be amazing. That being said, I laughed for about a minute straight at "Leonard likes this post!"
