@Mr_skeleton: When the song first played it seemed perfectly out of place, but then the longing (and awkward) looks made it amazing.

The Chang/Britta "relationship" was great though.

Completely agree - the use of Lionel Richie was inspired. Overall, I think I preferred this week's episode to the season opener, although it seemed a little odd to have none of the new characters in episode 2.

Great two episodes to start off the season. I hope John Goodman is in most of the episodes, his character seems hilariously awesome

Chang stuff was absolutely the highlight this week. Glad we got some more Michael K. Williams, but still no Goodman? I hope that wasn't just a one episode deal. The main story with the group was okay. I hope Todd becomes a recurring character. Loved the ending.

I felt as though this episode wasn't up to the level of quality that Community usually delivers. Good but not memorable either. Though I loved Omar talking about how complicated Lego has become.

The duel internal monologues had me in stitches. Rest of the ep was alright. The whole "everyone in the group is a shitty person" angle is wearing a bit thin, I got tired of that on Its Always Sunny pretty quickly. It worked on Sienfeld because each person had their own seperate life with its own cast of characters as opposed to forcing everyone in the group to work within every premise. And they've been doing that with Chang, but basically only him. The show is better when they concentrate on a handful of the people in the group instead of trying to include them all. Like, they threw out the "we spend too much time together" nugget then never followed up on it. Them trying out other best friends coulda been funny. Oh well.

I think It's to early to judge where the show heading. Chang with power is interesting, I wonder if the group will splinter and pick sides, I predict things will go to hell after some turning point and abed narrates for bit

This happens pretty much every week.

Yeah, this is pretty much exactly how I felt. The group storyline felt kinda weak, but the Chang narration was top notch stuff. Obviously, they can't do that every week with him as head of security, but it'll be interesting to see how he abuses that low level of power.

I like chang but only in small doses. I'm hoping that he disappears for a few episodes. Other than that it's nice to see community not skip a beat coming from season 2

Your wish has come true!

Interesting episode this week. Possibly my favorite of the season so far. Interesting idea that finally gave the group something interesting to do, and let the side characters, who have been working overtime this season, take a break. Over the top gay Dean still doesn't do it for me.

I thought the season has been dreadful so far. Thankfully this episode was much better. The dark time line and it's ending was was particular good.

Best episode for this new season. It seemed more in line with the awesome weird this show is know for. Also, I hope we see the Evil Study Group again.

Tonights episode is possibly my new favorite.

Them doing the "staring at each other longingly" thing, but with Pierce and the doll, "What does a pregnancy test look like?", high Britta, the whole Troy timeline, candy cigs, evil study group...

Episode was complete fire.

I would almost rather watch the Evil Group than regular group.

Definitely the smartest episode of the season so far. The Roll 1 storyline's climax was completely amazing, especially the troll ending. The inclusion of the evil study group was also hilarious!

Episode 4 was flat-out brilliant. So many great moments.

"Feel the terror of the Norweigan troll!!" Chase's best moment in ages.

"Me so hungy... Me so hungy..."

"What does a pregnancy test look like?"

Genius.
