I've got the normal-est boner right now.
Just finished Season 1. Introduction to Statistics (Halloween ep), Beginner Pottery and Contemporary American Poultry (Goodfellas) were awesome episodes. Some others were forgettable. The rest was good. The show has some likable characters and strong production values, though, so I'd always keep watching.
The dean sucks, though. Repetitive, irritating character. I'm hoping that they kill him off for season 2 and bring in another dean.
And the show relies too much on pop culture references... although that's often when it's most inspired. Same with Jeff. The love angle stuff (really? Annie, too?) is always low-quality, but when they're making Jeff look bad/weak the show suddenly shines.

that's actually from gq back in August 2011 but I'm not about to complain about reviving it
if you didn't like pop culture references, you better brace yourself for season 2.
They can't go more than 15 seconds without a pop culture reference in Season 1. It couldn't possibly get any worse.

HO HO HO. I'll see you a few episodes in...
If you hate the references and the dean, you might want to bail out. Season 2 and 3 do show the "Jeff looking bad" angle quite often, however, both explicit and subtle, and I think it works out great as well.
If you liked the parody episodes, there's some really good ones as well. Apollo 13 and Law & Order episodes come to mind.

I started watching the show from the start, just to get that October 19th feeling.
shocking fact: It's still amazing, guys.

I thought so, but it had personal stuff about the characters. Like dossiers.

Seriously waiting for the Community episode where the gang visits the sets of NBC and cameos in all of the shows Galifinakis style.

I'd love that. I'd also settle for just one or two characters at a time in every show the entire week including being guest stars on.. ugh.. Leno and Fallon.
Just inexplicably there as their actual characters (As opposed to Danny being on Cougartown but not actually playing Abed.) in the background of a scene.
They'd have to set it up well ahead of time though in order to have it all happen at once. But knowing NBC, it'd be fucked up royally when they delay or move episodes around.
NBC used to be great. Remember Blackout week? When all their NYC-based shows on the same night had blackout episodes. Friends and Mad About You. Even Fox did it right last season with their McFarlane shows all having hurricanes. Fox could have easily screwed that up.
NBC: Last Place and We Know It!
I would watch the shit out of a YNB/Retta sitcom.

I got my Season 3 DVD's. Am currently watching the outtakes and other special features before I marathon them this week.
Season 4 where are you??? The longer NBC delays it, the longer before DVD's come out.
I wonder. I assume this season had some seasonal episodes. It's gonna suck when we're watching Halloween and Christmas episodes in the spring.

After last season's hiatus, i've given up on the 'it fits the school calendar' aspect, unless they use this time to incorporate little blurbs about the lost time.

Every time this thread gets bumped now I expect to see that they announced an air date.

There's a way I mentioned for the hiatus which would just about make things work: Have the Dean have to close Greendale for a period for fumigation or something, so the characters get one month off (or whatever) off - but when they come back, the Dean insists on them continuing to go through the entire year just offset a bit, so maybe they'll have Halloween in February.
There's a lot of scope for gags on that front... if everyone involved were to know about it in advance.
That's...I'm sorry, but that's genius. <tips elegant top hat>

Awesome but at the same time WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!
No back 9.
But it could still be renewed, if the stars align and the apocalypse occurs leaving only the cast of community alive?

Fuck this Earth, so far away and seasonal episodes will be so out of place.

Wonder how many seasonal episodes they've done this season. Oh well, glad it's finally getting an air date! And they're putting it on during sweeps, not just sluffing it off in mid December (hello last season of Chuck) so maybe there's a chance for renewal still.

February 7th? That's a fucking age away.

As disappointed as I am that there won't be a back 9, I still feel they should wrap it up this year. The whole each season = one school year format works well, and I'd rather they not come up with something to extend the show beyond that premise.
