Community


Did anyone catch Community last week? The writing was brilliant.  If you haven't 
seen the show, basically it's about a misfit group at a Community college 
getting together for a study group and becoming a family.

Now add meta, snarky, sarcastic, silly, intuitive commentary and subplots, and 
you really know what this show is about.

Last week Jeff overdosed on pills and alcohol and became GI Joe.  In rereading 
that sentence, I look like I am insane for watching the show.  But, again, to 
know the characters is to get the plots.  I put in seasons of committed watching 
to " get it".  Time wasted, I think not!

The other characters became "Joes" too, and, well, bla bla bla, Jeff doesn't 
want to give up alcohol and women, which he would if he was an action figure, so 
he goes back to the real world.  Morals? Ethics? Mores? Humor? Social statement? 
Uh, sure.

Don't judge, just watch and then we can talk.
