We Need to Know: When are Jeff and Annie Coupling Up on Community?
Please, Dan Harmon, throw us a freakin’ bone. After Jeff and Britta dissolved their “relationship” last week it looked like the path to Jeff and Annie was clear. I don’t need a passionate declaration of feelings yet or anytime soon. I don’t even need a comment from the peanut gallery…
Character Development: Jeff and Britta Break Up on Community “Paradigms of Human Memory”
I usually can’t stand clip shows so this was such a welcome departure from the norm. I love the idea of characters looking back on events that have happened, but that we’ve never seen. It’s kind of genius. So even though Jeff and Britta thought they were fooling everyone by…
Character Development: Britta and Troy Kiss, Community, “Competitive Wine Tasting”
I totally didn’t see the Troy/Britta kiss coming. I mean, just a couple episodes and a painful hiatus ago, Troy was referring to Britta as a “ruiner of men” (for him anyway) and a total buzzkill. All of a sudden they’re bonding over an acting class that thrives on its…
TV Goodness Wish List (Week of March 21st): Chuck, Community, The CW, NCIS, Fringe and More
I want the love affair between Community and Cougar Town to take that next step and actually have a cross-network crossover episode. ABC and NBC would need to work together in harmony to make this happen. Seriously, all this Cougar Town talk is working. I haven’t watched the show since…
What They Said: Favorite Lines from Community “Custody Law and Eastern European Diplomacy”
Episode: “Custody Law and Eastern European Diplomacy” Writer: Andy Bobrow “White people problems.” “We like him a lot so you’re not allowed to bone him.” “Who am I kidding? I should be putting this right on my thighs.” “Easy peasy lemon squeezy.”
Moment of Goodness: Community, PaleyFest 2011
Last night’s panel was a laugh riot. Everyone in attendance has already seen this week’s episode – don’t worry, I have to re-watch it as the thundering laughter drowned out some lines. My only (small) disappointment was that Donald Glover and Alison Brie were missing? What is more important than…
Community Moment of Goodness: Troy Ditches Mariah After She Insults Abed
One of my favorite parts of Community is the bromance between Troy and Abed. They share the kickers at the end of the episode together; they make blanket forts together; they generally have each other’s backs. That is why I enjoyed them so thoroughly during “Early 21st Century Romanticism.” They…
Character Development: Britta Has a Lesbian Friend Who Isn’t a Lesbian, Community
I love Britta and her causes. This week she’s all about her cool, lesbian friend Paige. Now, Britta doesn’t know Paige is actually gay. She makes an assumption because it would be homophobic – according to both Britta and Paige – to ask. Britta and Paige decide to go the…
5 Reasons To Worship Community’s Advanced Dungeons & Dragons
I’m a total geek, yet I don’t know anything about Dungeons & Dragons other than I’ve heard of it; and (way) back in the day I saw this TV movie that featured a game that was pretty much a D&D ripoff called Mazes and Monsters. It starred Tom Hanks and…
Community’s Moment of Goodness: Annie Makes Sweet Love to Abed
I was never really into Dungeons & Dragons. I knew quite a few guys (some nerds, some outcasts, some popular kids) who worshipped the game. I can’t fault them for wanting to live in a fantasy world; high school can be tough. But if you’re out of your teens and…

What They Said: Top 4 Quotable Moments from Black Sails “XXIII”
The dialogue in “XXIII” is phenomenal. It’s always a fun ride when Black Sails carries its viewers along without giving them the chance to catch their breath. When an episode moves at this unforgiving pace, there is no chance for a breather nor is there a respite from the information…

Shoot outs. Fake outs. And long-awaited revelations. “Little Bo Bleep” was a jam-packed episode that wrapped up some loose ends and totally frayed others. Â It finally gave us one Sarkissian in jail and pulled back the curtain on Briggs’ master plan, but it also set up Jakes for a world…
