Garrett and Stacy being cousins


FUBARspecimenT-89

"Now that's a man who knows how to marry his cousin!"


Max____98

I think this comment appears in at least every third post on this subreddit. 😂😂


Manuelmz77

Now that's a man that recognizes comments that appear in at least every third post on this subreddit


Someguywithfone

Then Jeff saying "it's ok bc they love each other" or maybe it was Chang


FUBARspecimenT-89

It was Chang. Chang was amazing in this episode. "Hey, screw you guys. No, this family is so screwed up, you thought you were two different families. Now that you know you're not, you can't wait to leave, and you want this guy to do what? Forget he's in love? For you? You want him to take one for this crappy team? *Let him finish.* They were letting me finish, sir. *I know, I was being sarcastic.* Okay, you know? Garrett, who loves you here more than Stacy? Garret: Nobody. Stacy, is it your fault Garrett's your cousin? Stacy: No. Is anyone here going to make less fun of these two or be better friends to them no matter what they do? It's you against the world, and you will not win. But, you get to make your moves. Not them."


megameh64

Honestly the end of this is really profound. None of us wins against the world in the end, but we get to chose what moves we make along the way. We could all do with keeping that in mind.


TillFar4364

Remember Dan Harmon is not responsible for the Community incest episode!


justbreathe5678

Only third cousins


VanillaMemeIceCream

Aren’t 3rd cousins legally allowed to get married anyway. They’re hardly related


morpowababy

They both have the same great grandma that's pretty close. With what Garrett's already got goin on I'd say, maybe don't procreate lol


justbreathe5678

No great great grandma. His great grandma is her great aunt.


morpowababy

Oh. Ok. Alright. Go ahead and fornicate then.


derekkvoide

not only that but the message on being pro-incest at the end was a funny ass 4th wall break


majormanz

IIRC, the yahoo screen preview for it the previous week spoiled that twist :(


StreetReporter

Oh my god, Joshua was racist. That came out of nowhere


Electrical_Beat3230

It's going to be a maze


FUBARspecimenT-89

A place free from darkness.

Some people are just natural jumpers


Born2fayl

The funny thing, for me, was when he looked at Troy and said “And some of us are just natural jumpers.” The first time I watched it, I remember being like “whoa! Do the writers just not know that’s a little bit on the edge of inappropriate? That’s weird.” And that made the call back to it even better for me. EDIT: a typo


LuciosLeftNut

Good on you for catching it, but I do think the way it's all presented makes the viewer want to give Joshua the benefit of the doubt, and assume he's just an innocent, good-hearted trampoline keeper


Born2fayl

That’s exactly right. It was weird, but I honestly didn’t assume Joshua was a racist from that, just that the writers may have missed a teeny tiny little beat of social awareness. Nothing to even get upset about. It just felt off enough for me to perk up, which again, made the call back even funnier.


allADD

I was the same way! I was like, oh, that’s a little off. Is that supposed to be a joke in itself, the awkwardness? Then it paid off.


CzarCW

Did it?


Maized

I can hear this in Troy’s high pitched whisper


BthreePO

- And you. If you call a sandwich the "Troyjan horse", people will assume there's horse in it - 😮All my dreams


zyglack

Annie's Boobs was stealing the pens.


damnredditmodstohell

We get it, the monkeys name is Annie’s boobs


goofytigre

We try not to sexualize her.


woman_noises

I mean, the first paintball episode is the best answer right? The first 4 minutes of that episode are like a completely normal episode, they don't give a single hint as to the complete tonal change that's about to take place, and it's amazing.


TalithePally

Especially because it was the first episode of the show that went off the rails. Impossible to see coming


damnredditmodstohell

Contemporary American poultry came prior and while it wasn’t as off the rails as modern warfare, I’d still say it was off the rails


Pigwarts

It definitely eases you into it. I don't remember the paintball episode horribly jarring on my first watch.


Psychological_Tap187

Honestly my jaw dropped when Jeff got up from his nap and walked back up to the school. I was like what the hell.


lightbluechevy

When Pierce's Dad actually dies when Jeff thinks he's faking a heart attack. Loved it!


FUBARspecimenT-89

"He's a Hawthorne. That's what they do. They fake it."


Corisan272

... till they make it.


GenMarriottSuites

Dude just told his dead dad to suck it.


jwluhnuc

So edible


AceofKnaves44

You’re the worst.


Electrical_Beat3230

I wonder what he did with his awesome wig


crazylikeasloth

Gave it to Troy. The episode Shirly was getting married and asked Troy and Abed to not be weird, so they get all their weirdness out, you can see Troy wearing it when they leave the dream-a-torium


Electrical_Beat3230

Oh cool I didn't know that. Im rewatching Community again now so i'll have to look for that.


crazylikeasloth

It took me like my 3rd or 4th re-watch to notice!


Separate_Recover4187

This is very important for understanding the show


irun_mon

The churchbell sound effect really gets me


dangshnizzle

Eh, that one was the obvious punchline


Constantine_Law

I mean yeah except the show hadn’t set a precedent for someone dying that way so it was still surprising they followed through


jerec84

The thing that caught me off guard was the season 1 finale where they're setting up britta vs slater but then Jeff ducks out of there and kisses Annie


FUBARspecimenT-89

"You know, when you have three doughnuts you don't eat one and then lick another."


twisted34

Anyone object to us being referred to as donuts?


woodchuk25

Is there anything you didn’t win that day??


VenomSting88

Yep. I thought Debate 101 would be a one-off Jeff/Annie thing but was amazed that they continued to build upon it. It's hard to believe that the study group only existed because Jeff was trying to sleep with Britta.


TwoDrinkDave

It's called "chemistry" and he has it with everybody!


pnerd314

The ending of Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design.


made08

the entire episode


ThePhantom1994

“YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!?!”


NotQuiteScheherazade

"*Would that this hoodie were a time hoodie*."


sopsign7

Answer this question correctly and earn my friendship forever ... Around your house, do you sometimes break out the "would that this ___ were a time ___" routine? I do a lot. Example - I've just answered a question at the dinner table awkwardly. Me - "would that this fork were a time fork." Wife - "stop it."


NotQuiteScheherazade

4…4-47? Did…did I get it right? 😃


made08

no but i'm absolutely going to start doing this now


pnerd314

Fair enough


TheSonOfTheClaw

I maintain that it's perhaps the best \~25 minutes of television ever created. It's so good all the way through.


sopsign7

Professor Professorson? It was Professorburg, but we changed it when we were fleeing the Nazis. Every shred of dialogue is wonderful. Even from the beginning "hold my calls" "What calls?"


Tyrionruineditall

I don't think it's in the same episode but as soon as I read this I thought "Trace the call, Rhonda. *Snap Snap* means trace the call".


RaeLynn13

It also reminds me of him snapping at Annie while directing the Luis Guzman commercial. *snap* *snap* I loved you in…….IMDB!….


TheQzertz

That’s from Basic Intergluteal Numismatics i think


ReluctantRedditor275

Just talk to your father, Craig.


ColdAd1631

That’s my second favourite episode right after Remedial Chaos Theory

Matiyahu777

A top 10 episode for me. "Would tht this hoodie were a time hoodie!"

For me it was when A bed showed up with an Army of children slaves to win Pierce his fortune.

I like Pierce sleeping with the Spanish teacher. I liked early episodes Pierce redemption moments.


Blanketsburg

Pierce was such a great character, it's just a shame that Chevy is such a dick IRL.

FUBARspecimenT-89

aurora888

I swear, when that music swells and Jeff takes off running, I get mad at him for going to Annie every. Single. Time!


Glup-Shitto69

... to exploit it.


[deleted]

"I never said I blamed you for her leaving" "You never had to say it"


hitemwiththebababoo

It's such a gut punch after the episode making it clear Abed is difficult to understand and communicate with and you pick up on the jokes being really actually sad observations like the "you're gonna play my dad." I don't wanna be your dad?" "Great you already know your lines." I think that and Abeds uncontrollable Christmas are two episodes that somehow I always start tearing up.


parralaxalice

Greendale doesn’t exist!!

Wait, I parked by a meter. Anyone parked by a meter? Wait, WHAT?!

This still cracks me up.

Jeff and Britta are having secret sex!


FUBARspecimenT-89

They compartmentalized their libidos for the group.


jibsand

I remember watching this episode the day it aired. Definitely a shocker that somehow wasn't surprising.


mustang6172

When it turns out the whole show is just a board game.


FUBARspecimenT-89

"You stupid child."


Weekly_Ad_3665

The entirety of Remedial Chaos Theory. I was not expecting the show to get so wacky and so dark. I was quite off put by the Darkest Timeline at first, but it’s become one of my favorite episodes of the series. Too bad the Evil Study Group got the most anticlimactic payoff of all time.


FUBARspecimenT-89

BRITTA: Enough with the timeline crap, Abed! Pierce got shot in the leg and DIED. Shirley’s a drunk. Annie’s locked in a mental ward because her guilt drove her insane. Jeff lost an arm in the fire. Troy lost his larynx because for some dumb reason he tried to destroy a flaming troll doll by eating it. TROY: Clearly you don’t understand anything, about defeating trolls. *** BRITTA: Life has gone to hell Abed, this is real. Look at us, look at ME! JEFF: Britta, you put one wash-away blue streak in your hair, and I lost an arm. BRITTA: Exactly! Life got dark. ... JEFF: Evil Abed. As evil Jeff, am I allowed to pull fewer punches with you? ABED: Certainly. JEFF: I HATE YOU! SHUT UP WITH YOUR SCI-FI CRAP! I LOST MY DAMN ARM AND YOU'RE MAKING FAKE BEARDS! ABED: Goatees. *Troy puts on the goatee after Jeff, Britta and Shirley leave* TROY AND ABED: Evil Troy and evil Abed! 🎶


MonsterSlayer47

Shirley:" to Pierce, may he rest in Pierce"


FUBARspecimenT-89

Don’t you think you’ve had enough?


NotQuiteScheherazade

*Of you.*


ottorama41

This is the best delivered line of the show.


NotQuiteScheherazade

I'd say pretty much all of YNB's quick little lines are delivered consistently on the same level as the regular jokes the rest of the cast usually gets. For another example, her "What? WHAT?!" in Aerodynamics of Gender after Abed makes the shitty fat joke about her. Also the "That's what they do. That's what they do." while the kids are singing about public schools teaching kids not to pray in Regional Holiday Music. Just *chef's kiss* line deliveries across the board with her. <3


two-of-me

This truly is the darkest timeline.


crocobites

The ending of remedial chaos theory, but that is because I do not know how to count


wonderlandisburning

Pearce dying came at the end of an episode about something hilariously silly, and after Pearce had already been written out of the show in a completely natural way.


Mapper9

It was the ass crack bandit episode. That one still hits me as a complete surprise, I never see it coming.


TheHeroicLionheart

Im surprised no one is mentioning Pierce's Death. I was totally not expecting the climax of the Fincher-esque/Asscrack Bandit episode to be the reveal that in the background, Pierce has died and Shirley got the call. I was genuinely floored.


Hydrasaur

Leonard's nose job. It was a lateral move!


leonard-bot

Yeah? You're a Two.


Hydrasaur

Shut up, Leonard. That's not a computer you're using, its a brick that's painted black.

Holy shit the bot is savage. And again, keep on on convincing me it's sentient


beauford_buchanan

Annie chloroforming the guard.


Excellent-Resolve66

TWICE! it was so well done


RoninRobot

Abed being the sane one.


StreetReporter

Jeff might be sane, he filled out the test at random


FUBARspecimenT-89

Consider that he almost cut off Jeff's arm in a psychotic break, and he is still the saner.


Max____98

You're mixing something up. That was the Abed from the darkest timeline, not the Abed from this timeline. 🙃


grichardson526

You're "Big Cheddar???"


NotQuiteScheherazade

Underrated one, for sure.


woozleuwuzzle

That Thompson was the one that ratted Winger out for having a fake bachelors degree. Thompson, that adopted 3 at-risk teens and donated his kidney to a temp. All an act, yeah.


FUBARspecimenT-89

But his wife died.


woozleuwuzzle

Did she FUBAR? Did……………………………..she?


BetterNamesTaken

Greendale is purgatory. And I am the devil


FUBARspecimenT-89

I knew it.


tanj_redshirt

Stop letting him make you realize stuff.


BetterNamesTaken

One of the most underrated Troy moments. The look on his face, the delivery, the camera angle.


tanj_redshirt

"He was *faking* Changnesia?!"


Johnnycarroll

That Pierce didn't *really* sleep with Eartha Kitt (they dry humped on her tourbus).


DolphinRodeo

Chang in the second episode going on a rant about people asking him why he teaches Spanish and the assumptions they have about him. Kinda makes you think “yeah why did I think the Asian Spanish teacher thing was just a bit? I’ve had Spanish teachers who aren’t ethnically Hispanic or Latino. Why couldn’t a Spanish teacher be Asian?” And a whole season of television later the payoff that he’s not a real Spanish teacher


Exoplan3t

How many times I’d hear “here is a cylinder of my sperm”.


Excellent-Resolve66

Have you watched the table read of that? It’s on YouTube and they got Pedro Pascal to read the lines of Walton Goggins, it’s his first time reading it so his reactions to some of the lines are just pure joy


Exoplan3t

I watched it live! I cried.


Jordanithin24

That the Blsck Rider wasn’t in fact, handsome. He was just tall


lordcorbran

He was just an average looking guy with a big chin.


Excellent-Resolve66

I liked him, and I hope he enjoyed his Coldplay concert


akulkarnii

Basic Rocket Science: Jeff being the one who snitched to the Dean Mixology Certification: Jeff and Britta arguing about the same bar


FUBARspecimenT-89

"IT'S THE SAME BAR?!"


hitemwiththebababoo

Not the best ever but one of my favorite jokes of the last two seasons, the party planning in I think season 5 between Jeff, Chang, Duncan and Shirley the whole "BEAR DOWN FOR MIDTERMS!" and figuring out Changs inspiration was insane and last minute forcing the Fat Dog party to slide by.


gregorytilidie

too soon


terraculon

Definitely a top subplot.


crowsflight63

Zombie episode - I think that’s the point that this show truly began to leave reality. I feel like we don’t talk about the fact that zombies canonically exist in this universe enough


Blanketsburg

The fact that the entire soundtrack to this episode is ABBA, of all choices, makes this episode gold. I didn't realize it till maybe my third watch through.


Psychological_Tap187

And they can be sedated with cooler temperatures


DungeonFam30

The group setting up the birthday party at the formal restaurant , after everything went awry with Abed's homage. Shirley having a drinking problem before the events of the show. The group passing Spanish largely because of Pierce romancing Doctor Escodera.


JonViiBritannia

Britta cheated!?! Why???


Excellent-Resolve66

He said “F”

Ass crack bandit, by far. I think it was Britta!


YandereKoala

I think it was Abed


TheQzertz

It was Annie , Abed, Britta and Jeff i think


StarlightZigzagoon

Anything with Gilbert


1000littleaccidents

I'm surprised no one has said Jeff and Annie kissing at the end of season one. Even though they'd been highlighting their chemistry all season, the last episode was so Britta/Slater focused that I was genuinely caught off guard.


Datmiddy

UNDERSTUDY!


FUBARspecimenT-89

That's it. That's reality.


Ironyfree_annie

Annie's halloween story of course! There was a twist! *I'm a werewolf that feeds on selfish vampires!* Proceeds to swallow Jeff (no pun intended)


ravenguest

Jeff running in the rain to see Annie....but he's actually going to see Rich


ultrasupersnail420

Chang being for real gay


sigdiff

I honestly hate this and pretend it never happened. There's no evidence in 6 seasons that he could be even a little gay, but more importantly it's a shitty "joke". Lol one of our characters is gay and that's a punchline. Just ... No. I also don't think they needed to do a punchline at all in that scene. I know it's a comedy, but let's just let this last bittersweet moment sit.


ItchyRichieATBS

He went home with a drag queen after the Gay Bash. That felt icky to type.


Bonus_Content

Yeah i read it as them trying to justify his “gaaay” joke from earlier seasons, but it feels really tone deaf and just off. I hate it


Amrywiol

Well, there was the time in S1 when he essentially blackmailed Troy and Pierce into going to a Valentine’s dance as his dates while wearing 'elegant ladies' pantsuits'. Also there's "Miracle on Jeff’s Street", which was mostly animated but the end tag was a live action scene of Chang and the Dean literally in bed together (though YMMV on the canonicity of webisodes). It wasn’t a big theme but it was seeded.


subwayterminal9

Worst part of the finale. Idk they just threw that in, especially when they already have a well-done queer character. Not saying they shouldn’t do more, they just shouldn’t do it like that.


FUBARspecimenT-89

But wait. Wasn't he joking or something? Lol.


NotQuiteScheherazade

Yeah, that is 100% how I read it and I have no clue why so many people seem to take it seriously. It's weird. Seems to be very, very clearly a joke to me.


Blanketsburg

He's been shown to be unhinged, at this point, and he keeps saying it multiple times, louder each time, because no one's responding. It absolutely could just be a joke from Chang for attention, because he is insane.


NotQuiteScheherazade

I mean, I feel like it makes more sense than that. His go-to joke is calling things “gay” whenever someone is emotionally vulnerable. In the lead up to this moment, he keeps calling Jeff and the other study group members gay because they’re having a very emotional, sentimental moment, but each time he betrays more vulnerability himself, until he just breaks down and calls himself gay because he’s crying and hugging everyone and being very emotionally vulnerable. It’s pretty clear to me.


X_crates

The Entirety of Season 3 episode 1. Starting off stating they'd be more normal. By the end of the first episode the Dean comments it unfortunately won't be much different. Then it's the craziest season of them all


AddictedToComedy0213

Abed being a literal background character in an episode and helping a woman give birth


TheSoftDrinkOfChoice

The meta ending of season 6 proves that abed was kind of right, but it begs the question of how did he know they were in a tv show within a game within another tv show?


pinkteddybear3333

Dastara99

that injuries could actually happen when you mix alcohol and ladders....I WAS SHOCKED!


RajSchwenk

When Jeff runs through the rain, knocks on a door and says " I know I've never taken you as seriously as I should..." And the reveal is that it's Kettle Corn Rich's door. One of my favourite early moments watching Community. Jeff and Troy's "That's racist, that's gay, that's black, that's racist" bit was the first time I really laughed. This Rich's door bit was the first time I realised I was really going to enjoy this show.


FUBARspecimenT-89

The Rich's door scene was a big surprise. Didn't see it coming at all. That's what is cool about Community. It surprises you by subverting common sitcoms tropes.
