rumblecat Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Yeah, I feel the same way. Sometimes it's like they don't know what to do with her anymore. Back in season 2 she was a pretty interesting and complex character, now she just seems flailing about. I don't know if that's the point and maybe that's headed somewhere, but this week was another time where she didn't really do too much and got overshadowed by everyone else. Parking lot scenes were the best. Dean was a highlight again. Link to post Share on other sites
makkuwata Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 But Gillian is so pretty. It's like they made her in a lab. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Tefleon Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Meh, Britta rarely makes me laugh now. She is probably the weakest character. She's traded places with Annie. In season 1-2 Annie Britta was the strong female role who was on par with Jeff. At the same time Annie was the young girl who had very little life experience and we had an underlying plot line of her growing as a person. At some point the "you've Britta'ed that" was introduced as running joke and her character went from strong role to idiot while Annie was promoted to the lead character. - Britta can organise a full wedding but not make a sandwich? It's a shame because Britta's early character as an equal to Jeff was a great role. But then I preferred Pierce when he was cast as the character helping them all in the background without them knowing... 2 Link to post Share on other sites
StumpyJohn Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I miss Pierce (and Troy). Abed on his own just doesn't work as well, it was mitigated last series by his girlfriend but she has now just disappeared without any explanation. Link to post Share on other sites
Mentazm Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Abed is just annoying without Troy. I did like his thumbs up to Jeff's partying. I'd like a gif of that. Link to post Share on other sites
rumblecat Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Did Jeff and Britta get married at some point? Was season four? Was that just a gas leak? Link to post Share on other sites
Tefleon Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 They've come close three times that I can recall. 1. at the start of season two when they try to out do each other as to who loves who the most and Abed brings in a wedding party. 2. During Shirley's wedding rehearsal they recite vows only for Shirley to stop them 3. At the end of either season 4 or five when they propose to each other when it looks like Greendale is gone then dismiss it when it's saved. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
makkuwata Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Not that he had much screentime but I made it the entire way through this weeks episode without realising I was looking at Billy Zane. Link to post Share on other sites
Hexx Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Oh god. Frankie and the poor Dean this week 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Delargey Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 This series has been amazing. The black guy (forgot his name) and Britta talking about "the thing the castle has" cracked me right up. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
joeplus Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 It's actually been getting better by the episode, like some stupid naive Community fan would have hoped a year ago. The drawbridge scene, oh my god. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mentazm Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Loved Frankie trying to explain to the Dean that he was an idiot. Can someone do a gif of that due in that bar (who the fuck? bar the fuck?) appearing and disappearing behind that thing? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
makkuwata Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 The Honda logo appeared when I went to watch a video on YouTube earlier. I skipped the ad when the 5 seconds were up, but not before reflexively laughing out loud. At a logo. Well done. Link to post Share on other sites
rumblecat Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Loved Frankie trying to explain to the Dean that he was an idiot. Yeah, that was her finest moment so far, probably the highlight of a pretty good episode. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
makkuwata Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I was expecting today's episode to be the least grounded of the season so far and while it's a heightened TV reality it's not as cartoonish as I was expecting. There was a lot of strong character stuff.I'm sort of ready for a completely OTT episode actually. Maybe the paintball one will deliver.Also, for those keeping score 1) Annie 2) Britta this week.

makkuwata Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Again with the Troy references. Surely at this point we have to see Donald Glover show up soon, and with the show primed for renewal... Link to post Share on other sites

Scribblor Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 MATT FUCKING BERRY That was a really poor episode. Possibly the worst episode. Link to post Share on other sites
Comrade Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Yeah, but Matt Berry was in it. Link to post Share on other sites
makkuwata Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I didn't know he was going to show up ahead of time so that was a nice surprise. But apparently when the casting was announced there was a theory going around that he was going to play Pearce's son. Missed opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites
joeplus Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 First one this series that I think fell flat. Some good moments as ever but just didn't land for me. Ah well! Link to post Share on other sites
Mentazm Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I thought it was great! But I'm a sucker for anything Berry. Link to post Share on other sites
Scribblor Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I've been a big fan of this season in general, but I thought this episode was just dreadful. For a start, the Dean was barely in it. Link to post Share on other sites
MikeBeaver Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Really enjoyed it, didn't know Berry was iin it, even though I saw him tweet a few hours before that his "episode should be airing right now", episode was a bit flat but the fact that he was in it made it a good one. Now to go watch The I.T Crowd again Link to post Share on other sites
