I hope they don't take the cliché route and make it all a hoax, especially since we have Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking.
Doubtful. I admit I'm not as knowledgeable as others in this thread, but didn't Chevy Chase rage quit?
It would be possible for it to still be a hoax without Chevy having to continue any further involvement with the series. Seems very much in the spirit of his character, but hey, who knows? Also: ASS. CRACK. BANDIT!!!

I'd agree that season 4 is underrated, though suggesting any episode within is has MORE emotional depth/resonance than the Harmon years is just absurd. The main problem with season 4 is how hollow and cartoony the characters are, coupled with the fact that she show constantly just feels like something trying to be what Community once was, as opposed to being its own genuine thing. The episode with Jeff's dad was a good example of this, especially seeing how carelessly the show ended up handling a plot point it'd been brewing up for years (though I did get a kick out of the brother); more so if you ever read Harmon's ideal casting for the role. Herstory of Dance (the Britta one you mentioned) is probably my favourite episode of the season, though - I'm with you on that one.

Abed was the only person who didn't get a second gift! Just sperm. Also, I agree that it wasn't quite as good as Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking. Though, the whole "revelations of secrets" thing was at least handled better than the puppet episode from last year. Plus, anything with Walton Goggins is automatically enjoyable.

Ass Crack Bandit's been going for a while, and it was the Election episode. More layers than an onion, this thing.
I've been loving Season Five so far, I'm glad that Brie Larson came back for Abed (I kinda have a nerd crush on her since Scott Pilgrim), and there's a blink and you'll miss it allusion to Troy towards the end of it, which was excellent. The tag with John Oliver was great too.

Now wanting to go back to Season 4 trashing, because I actually quite enjoyed it. But I'm enjoying this season more. I like that Lava is the new Paintball, and just the general feel of this season, regardless of who's in or out, I'm kinda digging on.

I'd read that Dan Harmon's idea for the movie was at the end of Season 5 they all go away *somewhere*, and in Season 6 whatever happens after they go away has an effect on the group, and they're dealing with the consequences. And the movie, is their adventure, so we find out what happened when they went away.
This weeks was good, not vintage, but I enjoyed Duncan Vs Jeff for Britta's affections, and it was difficult to have Abed as Kickpuncher without Troy.

You clearly missed the news ticker at the end of the Notice Board episode.

I actually got a bit more of a 1984/Brave New World type of vibe from this one. Quite possibly my favourite episode of season 5 so far, and the boldest Community has been in a while.
