'Community' 12/8/11-- "Regional Holiday Music"

Was that the sound of a thousand heads exploding during Annie’s song and dance?
Sometimes I feel like they try and cram too much in too fast, and I end up missing half of what’s going on. The tone, the theme, the quick jokes, the plot…it makes my head spin. And it all seems a bit forced. Tonight was one of those nights.

But again, Annie’s song and dance…until it hit the point of diminishing returns, of course.

But … the Carol of the Dean! Or, as you may call it, Merry Merry Merry Merry Changmas!

I laughed out loud several times, but then I watch Glee, too. The kids’ chorus convincing Shirley to start singing was priceless, with the lyrics about public schools and the Constitution. Troy and Abed’s rap was pretty awesome as well.

And Britta’s tree costume? Yow-zah.

Is this the last Community till midseason? I hadn’t thought about when the end might actually happen, but when the voices swelled to sing “see you after regionals” at the end, it made me think this might be it. Booooo!

Things like the Beetlejuice bit on YouTube make me wonder what else I’m missing from each episode.

Hilarious. The rap, over-the-top Annie, even Pierce. Great episode.

Loved it! If this is the end I will be as sad as I was when Freaks and Geeks was cancelled.

Loved it! Very silly, but lots of fun. Nice fanservice with Britta and Annie’s outfits–yowza!

I’d heard earlier in the season that the Community writers were hoping to do a musical episode, but I wasn’t expecting a Christmas horror Glee parody musical. Cool, cool, cool.

I was so excited when I realized they were going to parody the Oh-so-ripe for parody Glee.
I was a little disappointed.

Still love this show.

For me, that was after watching it 6 times. By the time I watched it 10 times I was almost over it.

Almost.

Wish they were a little harsher with glee. Maybe about about the creepiness of being obsessed with the sex lives of fictional teenagers. No offense to all of the fat 43 year old women here who like that sort of thing though. Er, no, wait, offense.

I do like the running glee bashing throughout the show’s history though. Just figured that meant they’d savage them more here.

Shirley mumbling “that… that’s what they do” about about public schools and succumbing to the children was great.

Thank you Baby Boomer Santa for inventing music, so we could have this episode.

What’s a dimins-yinwiwhawewen?

Boop-be-doop-a-boop-boop-sex!

I can’t wait for Regionals!

He just perfected it.

I thought this was Regionals.

Isn’t Regionals great!

Glee Club, meet Ascap.
