Content

This week on Enthusigasm, Helen chats to Alasdair, Anil, and Bryn about Community - an absurdist, nerdy comedy about seven friends at Greendale community college and the ridiculous things that happen to them.

We discuss what made the series change so drastically in the last three seasons, the ups and downs of the show, and of course our favourite characters and jokes.

Top quote: "The thing is ragged, and weird, and that's why it's charming."

Content warnings:

  • Discussion of homophobia, misogynoir, and ableism
  • Spoilers throughout for all of the Community TV series (2009-2015)
  • Mild spoilers for The Magnus Archives (seasons 3 and 4)
  • Strong language
  • Mentions: gaslighting, age gaps and power dynamics

Featuring: Anil Godigamuwe, Bryn Monroe, & Alasdair Stuart

Editing by Marisa Ewing and Jeffrey Nils-Gardner

I've never even heard of the show being discussed but i don't even care because i can just listen to Helen & Co. talk excitedly about stuff forever <3

Great stuff! Community was groundbreaking, this was such a nice retrospective

Rebecca Dupont

Agree with so much here; really making me want to rewatch Community for the 10th time now!

I was actually in a test screening group for Community, so what Alasdair said about it being a rough pilot was so funny because those were almost all the exact notes I gave for them in the test survey.

I must say that I don't even watch this show, i've never even heard of it... but I loved this episode anyways. Hearing them talk about things they like and just laugh and be themselves is so much fun. They're all such lovely people.

We paused & discussed the differences with tBBT just before Bryn went & said exactly the same thing (but much, much more eloquently) <3
