In terms of sheer laughs, sure, but I actually think the premise behind this one was better (which is to say, it actually had a premise. All paradigms did was vaguely hint at the group breaking up, even though that's schmuck's bait). Which isn't to say I disliked paradigms--I loved it--but this is a little bit of an apples-to-oranges comparison. Paradigms was all about how many funny memories they could concoct. This episode actually advanced the plot.

Also, totally buying a Troy & Abed & Annie in the Morning mug if they're ever released.

Best. Crossover idea. Ever.

It took me a good two minutes to understand the title of Lupine Urology.

Community Characters Enter Video Game

I really dislike the misusage of "8-bit" in situations like this. 8-bit graphics = 3 colors and a transparency, not "cutesy sprite style." But that's besides the point.

I think it's used the latter way often enough that any individual instance is blameless. And I don't think it's fair to characterize it as cutesy. A lot of people have huge nostalgic attachment to that aesthetic.

Anybody else pumped for tonight's triple episode?

Drench · Post Post #535 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 2:18 am

No. Everyone else posting in this thread for talking about Community does not care at all about the season finale of Community.

Triple? Whoa.

Exactly this. Who cares if we get three brand-new episodes of the most original show on TV?

awwww it felt like this was the series finale. i'm glad it's not. but hopefully it doesn't suffer Chuck syndrome for it.

zoraster · Post Post #542 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 5:11 pm

it's too bad they showed them all in a night. too much to comment on. too much to take.

That video game episode was everything bad about Community: It wasn't related to Community college, it was barely related to the characters themselves (You could have put basically any characters with the Greendale 7's traits in and seen the same episode), it didn't move ANY plot forward (It brought in a character we never saw before to deal with a plotline we've never heard of before and resolved it in one), it relied completely on being meta and gimmicks, and it frankly just wasn't funny.

Luckily the other episodes were slightly better.

BBmolla · Post Post #545 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 8:18 pm

^I agree. The only thing it had going for it was the video gameness, which totally could have been done in some other way. It was just absurd and stupid, like some terrible movie you'd watch with your friends just to laugh at. It is like the Kickpuncher of Community episodes.

xRECKONERx · Post Post #546 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 9:26 pm

Those were three FANTASTIC episodes of Community. I wish the whole season had been this good.

xRECKONERx · Post Post #547 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 9:27 pm

But I agree that the video game episode was the weakest.

xRECKONERx · Post Post #548 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 9:28 pm

Goddamn. What will they do for season 4?

noraaa · Post Post #549 (ISO) » Thu May 17, 2012 11:54 pm

I liked it. But, I like everything.

I found it amusing. I like to see different takes on the same subject matter. How they did a video game was amusing. Also um.. Giancarlo Esposito. Fucking A. I love seeing him pop up in things.

The middle ep was more meh for me than any of them. But I loved seeing Troy finish becoming a strong man in the last episode. And it was nice seeing the real dean again.
