Well, we at least have similar taste on the show - I seriously considered D&D and Film Studies for my top three.

And I debated between the first paintball episode (Modern Warfare) and Fistfull of Paintballs. Tough decision.

We're agreed on Annie's Boobs too.


Yep, the two best things about the show  >:D


Quote from: Brian on August 14, 2013, 08:04:11 AM
Maybe it's a weird choice, but this is my favorite moment from the show

That is a great scene.

One of my favorites (don't know if it's on youtube) is when Jeff attempts to get a group of German students to stop playing Fussball. After one of them goads Jeff into playing, and then humiliates him instantly, the German guy says, "I wish there was a word to describe the pleasure I feel viewing misfortune."  :laugh:

Do you listen to podcasts?

Rarely, but please, if you can find the links, I'd appreciate having them.

How do I love thee?
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Haply I think on thee and then my state sings hymns at heaven's gate
I think I'd put "summer's day" #1 but I like this list!

Fistful of Paintballs is too broad-brushed for my taste, Modern Warfare is jawdroppingly awesome: Study group ... come out and plaaay!!

QuoteOne of my favorites (don't know if it's on youtube) is when Jeff attempts to get a group of German students to stop playing Fussball. After one of them goads Jeff into playing, and then humiliates him instantly, the German guy says, "I wish there was a word to describe the pleasure I feel viewing misfortune."

Yes! Yes! Yes! I'll give you a free shot ... won't even be touching my fussenschaft. :laugh: I probably played way too much fusball in high school.

And few obligatory gratuitous Annie clips

Annie is very young, we try not to sexualize her.

My favorite Community episodes are the fried chicken one (parody of Goodfellas), and the My Dinner with Andre parody.  There are so many awesome episodes, but if I were to pick one last one... instead of the paintball ones I would choose the video game one because Abed gets to go crazy (his army of children are just hilarious) and Pierce gets to have some less jerky moments, which is refreshing because post-season 1 that was rare.

Out of those three it is the fried chicken one that is my favorite.

So many threes.  ;D

Before I get to my lists, as to Community it really fell off after the first season, that was the only time they got the Pierce character right, and the 4th season was just a debacle, and now with the best character gone, Troy, I don't have any faith that Britta can save that show.
