A couple minutes in I was like, this is starting to feel like a bottle episode. Then a couple minutes later I had to tell my disappointment to suck it, they're doing a bottle episode.

The boobs...they're bouncing. Can't wait for that gif to come out next week! Oh and the episode should be pretty awesome as well.

Really liked the Dean in this one, lots of other good parts, too. Meh.

I thought the Britta stuff was pretty meh, liked the rest. They actually pulled off the sentimentality of the Shirley/Chang stuff- which I would have thought was never going to work.

Yeah, i think its safe to assume they did this on a ridic small budget to have the funds to do the two part finale which should be amazing.

It wasnt even close to as good as the first bottle ep though.

Story of this season. I really wish they hadn't completely changed his character. He was pretty hilarious in S1.

I think Harmon promised in season 3 he'd put Chang back in some sort of authority position (not necessarily as a teacher though).

Pun not intended?

I sort of agree, though I have found him almost as funny this season as s1. Not quite, but close enough. The quick cut revealing him in pitch-black dark-elf makeup in the D&D episode is one of my biggest laughs all season. And the similarly surprising whip-pan revealing him in mid-greasing-up last week before diving into the vent was almost as hilarious.

I must have rewinded chang's nunchuk move vs. the lamp at least a dozen times. "I said I was sorry about the lamp. Weird place to put a lamp though, right?"

Yeah there's been isolated sketches where he's been hilarious, but they've really overused him and given him too much dialogue which completely misses the mark. He was so much more awesome last season as an egomaniac, and just a secondary character. I still crack up every time i watch the throwaway scene where he fakes his death "I am a man who can NEVER die".

You can't do that!
Have you met me???

I can't make it through this episode, this is like smelly ass as a TV show.

Agree with Chang season one being much better.

Ugh...you're the worst.

I am senior chang

I don't want my baby's first memory to be Starburns!

"Who knew there was a difference between North Korean and South Korean Barbeque? I mean, M*A*S*H lasted longer than that war, get over it already! ...Don't write that down."

Re-watching this episode and liking it even more.

I just noticed an amazing Abed-meta moment that only nerds who look for continuity errors will pay attention to. After Pierce ruins the handshake with "Betty Grable," (btw, loved Troy hilariously taking his hoodie and covering himself in shame) Troy and Abed try to handshake each other. It doesn't seem to take, and they look disappointed. Abed goes "something's off" as they try it again.

The handshake is done with left hand tapping chest, right hand tapping partner's right hand. In the second "something's off" handshake: in the wide shot, Troy and Abed have the cash in their right hands (the ones they hit each other with); but in the close-up they insert, the cash is in their left hands (the ones hitting their chest). When we cut out of the close-up back to the wide, the money jumps from their left hands back to their right.

Right on this cut, Abed looks away and says "something's off."

Genius. They planted a continuity error so Abed could make a meta joke about the editing, but it would also make sense story-wise because something's truly off now that Pierce has ruined the handshake. God I love that stuff.

[Edit: for the skeptical, not a minute later they keep going down the Abed meta hole by having him tell the story about delivering a baby in the back of a van (that we saw only in the background), claiming that Troy (who we saw in the foreground) was the one in the background.]

Im not convinced that wasnt an actual continuity error. It wouldnt surprise me if it was intention, but i think the odds are like 25% it was.

I laughed pretty hard at Chang's joke about Google, "Have you ever tried to find me on Google? It's not possible!"

I liked him a lot in S1, S2 has been a slight decline, but for the most part I still find him funny.

"and to the ultimate blow off class, anthropology! who knew?"

jeff winger with the nice thinly veiled brag.

surprised at the hate, i really liked this episode. chevy chase was great. lot of parts i laughed at and it tied the story together nicely.

Chang's birth fung shui advice had me rolling.

You are wrong about that continuity error. The line "something's off" was before the error. It was just a normal CE.

abed, its called chemistry. i have it with everybody!

ive really liked this season, so excited for finale. anyone know when next season starts?

Whether the line was before or after the cut, it still brings your attention to it. It could have been a normal CE but I think it's more like 90% that it wasn't. It's not like a glass that was 3/4 full in one take and 1/4 full in the next. This was the actors having to smack hands with cash in one take and without them in the close-up. They don't just randomly forget if they were holding paper money or not. And the script supervisor realizes it too. These guys are sharp, and it all makes perfect sense for Abed's character too. Also, after dozens of Community episodes making this kind of meta-commentary, what makes you so skeptical?

EDIT: Okay, watched it again. Abed says: "Something's off," (calling you to pay attention) then they do the shake with the obvious continuity switch. I think that makes it even more clearly intentional.
