HELLO ALL. HULK HERE. SO A FEW WEEKS AGO HULK THREATENED YOU ALL INTO WATCHING COMMUNITY UNDER PENALTY OF SMASH.

WELL THE SECOND AND THIRD EPISODES CAME AND WENT AND WERE FUNNY, SHARP, AND FULL OF GREAT CHARACTERIZATION.

BUT NEITHER WERE ONE OF THE “GENRE-BENDING TRANSCENDENT EPISODES” THAT HAVE COME TO MAKE SOME PEOPLE FALL IN LOVE WITH THE SHOW.

WELL TONIGHT, THERE WAS ONE OF THOSE.

ENTITLED “REMEDIAL CHAOS THEORY” THE GANG GOES TO VISIT TROY AND ABED’S NEW APARTMENT AND AWESOMENESS ENSUES.

PLEASE ENJOY THE RAPID-FIRE INVENTIVENESS VIA HULU: THAT’S RIGHT. IF YOU NO WATCH COMMUNITY, HULK GIVING YOU THE GIFT OF THE ENTIRE FUCKING EPISODE!

EPISODE NOTES IF SEEN THE WHOLE THING.

-“THE ENDING IS THE CONCEIT” HULK SAYS IT ALL THE TIME, BUT IT’S GREAT WHEN A SHOW KNOWS IT. HARMON + WRITING STAFF COME UP WITH A GREAT IDEA HERE AND DON’T JUST LET IT FIZZLE OUT, THEY COME UP WITH A WAY TO GET TO THE HEART OF THE IDEA AND THEN CLOSE THINGS OUT. ABED’S SPEECH AND REVERSAL BY TURNING IT BACK ON JEFF WAS WONDERFUL. BETTER YET, AFTER ALL THE CRAZINESS, IT WAS EARNED.

-SOMEHOW THEN LOOPING BACK TO THE “EVIL” TIME-LINE IN THE KICKER WAS ALSO MORE GENIUS.

-COMMUNITY IS A SHOW THAT ACTUALLY HAS A LOT TO SAY ABOUT THE WAY CERTAIN PEOPLE INFLUENCE OTHER PEOPLE. PEOPLE SOMETIMES JUST HEAR A “JOKE” IN A LINE, BUT LOTS OF TIMES THERE ARE WHOLE ATTITUDES AND IDEAS GOING ALONG WITH IT. THIS EPISODE HAD A LOT TO SAY ABOUT THE WAY JEFF’S CYNICAL INFLUENCE PREVENTS THE GROUP FROM EITHER ENJOYING THEMSELVES OR BEING SUPPORTIVE OF ONE ANOTHER. JEFF IS HILARIOUS BUT IT’S IMPORTANT THAT ANYONE WHO PREVENTS EVENTS THAT COULD EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A DANCE PARTY ISN’T THE KIND OF PERSON YOU WANT AROUND… WHICH ACTUALLY MIGHT BE THE ENTIRE POINT OF COMMUNITY.

-IN FACT THE EPISODE (OBVIOUSLY) HAS A TON TO SAY ABOUT WHAT THE WORLD IS LIKE WHEN ONE OF THE CORE GROUP IS REMOVED FROM IT.

-IS IT HULK OR HAVE THE MADE THE ACTIVE CHOICE TO GIVE PIERCE GREAT MATERIAL THIS SEASON? HIS ASIAN/WOMEN BIT SLAYED A FEW WEEKS BACK AND TORG THE TROLL WAS GREAT TONIGHT. AS WAS “BANNED IN SERBIA”

-AS WAS ABED’S STUNT WITH THE JEFF INVITE.

-AS WAS THE “WHAT DOES A PREGNANCY TEST LOOK LIKE?” LINE AND TROY’S REVERSAL HAD HULK LAUGHING FOR, LIKE, AN ENTIRE MINUTE.

-BRITTA’S PIZZA SONG/DANCE WAS APPARENTLY AD-LIBBED… ATTENTION EVERY ACTOR: BEING SELF-DEPRECIATING CAN GET YOU EVERYWHERE. THAT WAS AMAZING.

-AS WAS “SO YOU’RE SAYING HE WAS A PIZZA GUY.”

-AS WAS THE FIRST NORWEGIAN TROLL REVEAL

-AS WAS “GOOGLY EYES!?!?!”

-AS WAS THE CANDY CIGARETTE

-AS WAS THE REPEATED “EMOTIONAL” MUSIC CUE

-AS WAS THE ENTIRETY OF THE TIMELINE WHERE TROY GOT THE PIZZA

-AS WAS “IT FEELS FUN”

-AS WAS THE REALIZATION THE WORLD IS A TERRIBLE PLACE WITHOUT ABED

-AS WAS “LET HIM FINISH!”

-AS WAS “ENCARTA IT!”

-AS WAS “… OF YOU!”

-AS WAS GILLIAN JACOBS DELIVERY OF “EXACTLY! LIFE GOT DARK!”

-AS WAS THE FACT HULK + ABED ARE TOTALLY WATCHING INSPECTOR SPACETIME IN THE KICKER!

-THINGS FROM THE EVIL TIME-LINE SO NEED TO COME BACK.

-SOMETHING IN THIS EPISODE REMINDED HULK OF A MOMENT FROM LASER FART BUT HULK CAN’T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS.

-IN CASE YOU NEVER HAVE, WATCH DAN HARMON’S LASER FART.

THE FUCKING HILARIOUS PART IS THAT HULK FORGOT ABOUT THE “BASED ON” STINGER AND IT HAS STUFF TO DO WITH A RECENT HULK ARTICLE.
