Has there been an episode where the Dean has NOT touched Jeff?

Go away. Comedy doesn't mean it can't have heart.
That is quite possible. Since John Goodman and Chang have fallen flat it seems like they just keep turning the group against each other.

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
It was an odd episode...not sure how I felt about it. Abed is just beyond weird at this point...
They're trying to make him more human, as it were.
To get him there they've been really highlighting his oddities so I guess that's why I feel that way.

I think it's about time they upped the ante. And as more time passes he should continue to be weird. It's not like he isn't learning though.
Such a strange ep, with Abed jumping from one character to another. I like how he tried to goad Annie into expressing how she truly feels about Jeff.
It was also surprising to hear her reasoning for why she "appears" to have it for Jeff, and the funny scene with a peeping Leonard.
Overall: Episode was creepy, even weird, but tied up nicely like a hallmark card. It's strange how many episodes of this show seem to do that, now that I think about it.

That's what happens when a group of people validate, nay, encourage a manchild's behaviours over a couple of years and let him run free with his mind.
The show finally took a proper look at what's really going on in Abed's head, after coming so close at chickening out at the last minute so many times. This episode would have been a waste if they'd messed up the ending, but they nailed it with the scene with Annie and Abed in the "locker", so it's all good.
I hope the Troy/Britta stuff is at the forefront of an episode soon. Nice of them to jump into it straight after last week, anyway- better than leaving it dangling awkwardly for a few.
I didn't like it. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I really didn't. Its not just the lack of laughs (which admittedly probably didn't help matters, but I've gone through numerous episodes of Community without laughing before and they've still pulled up ok), its just the whole thing felt... off. Honestly, the one word that keeps popping into my head - and its really not a good description, but I can't get past it - is 'wanky'. It felt like the equivalent of some university film student's deep, emotional masterpiece.
For the record, I have no problem with sitcoms exploring characters, and going into heartfelt territory (one of my favourite shows is Scrubs because it used to do this so well), but this didn't feel right. I'd like to say I'll rewatch it to see if I'm missing something, but, to be honest, it feels like it would be a 21 minute long chore to do so.

Because of two differing, unrelated opinions?

Yeah, only shows that are bland to the point where everybody would have the same opinion are worth your time. Like the pleasantly inoffensive music played in a McDonalds.
...Having said that, the episode was alright (first act was grating but it rebounded midway through) but the show is gradually trending in a direction I'm not crazy about. It's starting to sound very "written" again, like it tended to very early on. And the way they're trying to bring back some of the heart from earlier seasons while also pushing things to be more cartoony than ever is kind of clashing for me. Many recent episodes have seemed strangely inconsistent tonally (within the one episode) which is a problem I rarely had with the show in the past.

No, it's that dude. He has a Fassbender avatar, he's got explaining to do.

I know people love it but I'm very quickly getting tired of Professor Spacetime. It was a great little background reference type of thing, but it's too specific and one-note to be so prominently featured so often. I mean, I've seen all of the 05 run of Doctor Who and a good handful of old episodes so I "get" it but it's just not that amusing beyond the initial "heh it's like old cheesy DW.".
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if they do a 100% Doctor Spacetime episode. They've been building it up that much.

This show is neat.
Also, Jeff in that tight green hoodie? Yes please.
