Only discovered last month and half way through season 2 - but already in my top 5 shows of all time.

For anyone who likes their TV/movie/cultural popcorn references thrown at them too fast to spot - it's unbeatable! (It's like US TV took Spaced and made it better)

Troy and Abed in the morning...!!!

Love this show. Chevy Chase is still funny.

Paint Ball Season 1 is possibly in my top ten episodes of ANYTHING ever! Abed as Batman is TV genius, Chevy Chase is as good as he's ever been in anything and the way they don't give a st who get's the references and who doesnt makes it an incredibly rewarding 30 mins.

Oh, and great to see John Oliver getting some attention!

Abed is destined for big things after this show - he's like Rain Man crossed with Chandler Bing via Tony Scott!

The second Paint Ball one is quite epic too.

Abed is definitely a character to remember. He and Troy work so well as a duo.

Chang is brilliant too.

My 12 year old is blasting through them now so we are watching Apollo 13 and Aliens tonight so that he gets the Halloween costume Troy/Abed wear and then the Space Station episode!

He's a big Die Hard fan so Paint Ball V1 is his fav so far!

This... the paint ball episodes are great... just a shame its one of those that needs to watched from the start otherwise it makes no sense.

As I ended season 2 and began 3 I worried how I'd cope with having to wait for Season 4....so quite glad it started to go wrong/off the rails/shark leaping.

I'll watch 4 but after 3 (and now the showrunner has been kicked) I dont have high hopes.

As an example of what a tool Chase is the scene he refused to shoot that caused all the trouble sounded brilliant with Ahbed re-writting the computer programme from the inheritance episode so Pierce could impress his dad.

Oh...and a benefit to watching all 3 season at once - I spotted, and got, the Bettlejuice cameo!

Bump...

Another late comer to this. Love it.

I think the problem with it is that it seems quite central on Jeff, especially in the early episodes and he's not a particularly relatable or likeable charachter. It certainly put me off and I found the first 4-5 episodes a little flat - but Abed, Pierce and Chang really steal the show....and as for Annie cloud9

Bt of a slower burner, but definitely deserves more viewing/exposure than it gets.

Very late to the party :-) I've just found Community of Netflix and am halfway though the 2nd season. Really enjoying it esp as, for me, The Big Bang Theory has lost its appeal in the last two seasons

Definitely downhill after S3, but season 6 is quality so far.

I had low expectations for S6, but Keith David is a nice addition. Loved the episode where the Dean gets a VR unit, and the one with Chang as Mr Miyagi is genius.
