Binged watched the entire season last night and thought it was awesome. First couple episodes were a little iffy with setting everything up, but it hit its stride right after that and I just thought it was great. Paul Rust is the perfect nerd (and the token black guy was the perfect token black guy). I also now have a major crush on Gillian Jacobs...she might have moved into my top 5 after last night.
Solid show...highly recommend. 4/28/2016 7:28:33 AM |

I enjoyed it, but I had kind of the opposite thoughts on it as you- I thought it started out pretty good, but felt the last few episodes were a lot weaker. Overall still an enjoyable show though, worth a watch. 4/28/2016 8:09:14 AM |

I thought it was fine, but really didn't like Paul Rust

^ True...although I imagine it's difficult to fill that role with someone in the middle. You're always going to have a Paul Rust/Jesse Eisenberg/Michael Cera type in these roles. Paul was extremely awkward. 4/28/2016 11:18:14 AM |

those 2 are much better actors than Rust, who wrote it and isn't a full-time actor
I just think he played it a bit too squeamish and the other two would have played it a bit more subdued/subtlety

But were they options for the role (although I'm sure Rust wanted to play the part)? I doubt there was a massive budget for accomplished actors for this show. What was Jacob's biggest role in recent years? A couple episodes on Girls? 4/28/2016 11:41:27 AM |

If you don't know Britta Perry, you need to stop posting about Love and watch Community with the quickness.4/28/2016 12:30:47 PM |

Yeah...I've somehow avoided Community over the years. Plan on watching it at some point, but it's not high on my list. 4/28/2016 2:42:11 PM |

It's such a good show. Once it makes it past the first few episodes and moves into the weird topics and pop culture centric episodes it really takes off. Avoid season 4 like the plague, Sony fired Harmon for that year and it is pure garbage.

I'm about halfway through season 2, and really enjoying it. I thought season 1 was just ok, but so far season 2 has been great 5/6/2017 5:54:43 PM |

the Shrooms episode was so good
Gillian Jacobs is the best 5/12/2017 3:36:04 PM |
