Now that *Community *is off the air due to low ratings (until it goes off hiatus next Spring), I’ve had to get my fix from YouTube and other websites with dribbles of Community content.
So I figured I’d start a poll thread for fellow Community fans.
Go by whichever criteria you choose. I went with whomever would impact the show the most if subtracted from the cast.
I chose Annie just because her personality is very similar to mine (both the good and bad parts), except the part about getting addicted to Adderal and flunking high school or whatever her backstory was.
Funnily enough, last year someone actually told me that I look a lot like Alison Brie. I only wish that were true! There are a few similarities between us, mainly the hair and eyes, so I guess I kind of see it.
It’s hard to choose since I like all the characters (including Pierce), but I was waffling between Abed and Britta. But then you reminded me that Britta’s the worst and that clinched my vote for her.
Britta - it’s always something new with her. And FWIW she comes off as the most “real” for a Community College student (yes, I know the show isn’t going for “reality”).
While Abed is endlessly unexpected (and Danny is very good at the character) I can’t help but see that he’s basically a version of Sheldon from Big Bang Theory, he would fit right in that show as a nemesis.
Troy get’s a lot of love, but I find his pop-eyed froze-face bit to be mugging of the worst kind.
The show would suffer losing any of the seven core characters, they strike such a great balance.
But I voted Abed because he is the glue that holds it all together, the audience proxy, the greek chorus, the moral center, and so forth. And he’s funny.
Jeff Winger. Because the real bugs aren’t the ones in those beds. And there’s no such thing as a free Ceasar Salad, and even if there were, The Cape still might find a second life on cable.
