  1. Why does Subway want to take over the school? LOL.

  4. I'm excited for this. Spoilers guide says that Subway offers Jeff a job. It also says Britta "considers an offer" from Jeff. I wonder what that's about. I am assuming they're about to hook up again. It feels like this season has been pointing that direction. Doesn't matter to me either way, but I'm not sure what Jeff's offer would be if it didn't involve the two of them.

  5. Hopefully Britta's forbidden love Subway will also be back.


    And I read that Greendale's first dean will be played by Chris Elliott (AKA Marshall Chris Monsanto in Adult Swim's Eagleheart - I like that show very much - it's very weird (especially season 3, plunging into complete madness as well as offering a somewhat serialized story over all 10 episodes), I recommend it to Community fans (it's very meta, it's a parody of the cop show/Texas Ranger genre and tropes, and it's pretty funny).

  6. Sounds like things might get a little serious, leave things up in the air a bit so they can pick up next season which sounds good to me. It also sounds like things are taking a turn with Jeff and Britta. I wonder if this finale will parallel the season 1 finale considering they did a "reboot" so to speak. I just hope Chang doesn't get all crazy again.

  7. Seriously, why the double standard? They have done the Jeff/Britta hook up plot already, several times. They have done "Jeff and Britta announce they are getting married" twice already. They have done Jeff with Slater, and Britta with Troy. But for some reason, why is the obvious chemestry between Jeff and Annie ignored over and over? The last few sesons it seems the same pattern- Jeff/Annie get some attention, bring up the issue the first few episodes, but nothing happens and the rest of the season they are barely together and we get Jeff/Britta shoved at us instead.

  8. Yes, I LOVED Subway!!

  9. Because it won't work that's why. A relationship between Jeff and Annie doesn't make sense based on how they've written both of those characters and a random hookup would be detrimental to their arcs. Remove your school-girl fantasy from the equation and actually look at the writing and direction.

  10. What, how they both care about each other, and how they bring out the best in each other? How they push each other to be better people and tone each other down when they go too far? How naturally they work together as a pair? How both have admitted an attraction for each other?

    My problem is that of all the pairings on the show, Jeff/Annie has had the most chemistry and most teasing, and arguably a majority of fan support, yet has not been allowed to happen, while we get some stupid contrived "marriage" of Jeff and Britta, who have had their chance and moved on, and tend to bring out the most competitive, selfish sides in each other. Jeff/Britta had a relationship based on competition and lust, and how many times have we heard Britta mock Jeff saying the sex was bad? Forcing that toxic relationship back into the show does a disservice to the characters and the fans.

  11. The actors have chemistry sure, but the characters don't. I don't give a flying f- what the show does as long as it makes sense. I hate to break it to you but in real life relationships aren't like fairy tales so what you call toxic I call real life, which is more compelling to me. I'm not watching Community to see romantic tripe. I watch it because it's funny, absurd, analytic, yet still rooted in realism. If they do end up pairing the two leads together, at least there's a basis for it and even humor in it. Can't say the same for Jeff and Annie sorry.

  12. Jeff and Britta together is what does not make sense. They are talking about getting married, when both have long rejected the idea of traditional marriage. The only time Jeff has discussed the idea of marriage without derision was when talking with Annie.



    Jeff and Britta have done the close call with marriage plot before, twice. The first was not because they thought it was a good idea, but because they were being competitive, trying to "win" attention. The second, they were both drunk, and arguing about the entire concept of marriage. Jeff and Britta may get along like siblings, but romance between them is toxic, and they have admitted it. Not a few episodes ago, Jeff proclaimed that he only liked Britta because she was popular, and Britta has told others that she slept with Jeff because she hated herself.



    Saying that they are the two "leads" and thus putting them together is contrived and without basis. You may prefer two people who primarily compete with one another and tear each other down constantly to be more "realistic and compelling." I would rather the characters grow and seek happiness, and Jeff and Annie both have chemistry, and show compassion and support for one another. They may bicker at times, but they don't actively push each other to be worse people like Jeff and Britta do.



    From a television perspective, you may not see chemistry between the characters, but a large number of fans do. And story-wise, pushing Jeff/Britta is lazy and derivative at this point. They got together early on, and split up. The romance plot with them has been done. Yet Jeff/Annie, which has been teased for years and years, is being pushed aside for a Jeff/Britta are getting married! joke for the third time? Why not acknowledge the characters chemistry and admissions that they care about each other, and let them get together, opening up new story ideas, instead of retreading the same ground.

  13. Jesus H...

    "Saying that they are the two "leads" and thus putting them together is contrived and without basis."

    wtf are you on about with this? I said leads (that's what they are) in lieu of typing out "Jeff and Britta." Even if they did, it wouldn't be contrived based on your examples anyway.


    Look I don't know what to tell you. It's Dan Harmon's show, he doesn't have to cater to your desires. I'm sure there are people out there who want Abed and Annie together for example, that doesn't mean he has to write that. I wouldn't want him to either because they've written them to be more like brother and sister. Jeff and Britta fight like a married couple at this point because of their history together and this is why I am saying that if he does pair them up, I wouldn't be bewildered by it.

  14. It seemed like you were saying that it made sense for Jeff/Britta to end up together because they are the two leads of the show and leads end up together. Though it is a lot more of an ensemble show right now.

    I just can't see Jeff and Britta getting together (again). They may have slept together, but their arguments feel more like competitive, squabbling siblings than a married couple. Or maybe a less than amicably divorced couple.

    Pairing up Jeff and Britta again may be possible, but it is not particularly believable based on their characters and the history of the show. Making it actually work would require both Jeff and Britta to be out of character. If it is a moment of "we're not thinking right, and letting our competitive sides get the better of us" and they come to their senses later, it would make a lot more sense, but it would still be frustrating for the show to go to that particular well a third time.

    And it's frustrating that while they have done Jeff/Britta multiple times, and had Britta move on to a full relationship with Troy, there seems to be a refusal to pay off years of teasing and buildup for Jeff/Annie.

  15. ^^^ *is why that joke they did in the fake clip show about obsessed shippers and their videos was hilarious*

  16. Not with the Jeff/Britta thing again! God! They are great but they don't have on-screen chemistry for a romantic relationship... They're just tedious...


    I'm not saying that Jeff should end with Annie... But i rather see them end the series as single persons than together... They don't work that way! They are great teasing each other like brothers tought.

  17. "Complete one another..."? Are you being ironic? If anything, the show goes out of its way to show how unnatural they are together. Think of Chaos Theory when Jeff acted like it didn't hurt when he hit his head in the one timeline when Annie wasn't around. That tells me that he can't be himself around her. And Annie reverts to acting like a little girl around him, when we all know she's more mature than that.


    Your complaints and expectations are rooted in a bunch of glances and some mild flirting, even as the show's directly telling you that it would rather NOT. Chemistry means nothing if it doesn't make sense for the characters' stories themselves. Bowser's right on the nose there.


    I hope Jeff/Britta actually DO get married this time, and put this whole shipping debate to bed. DANG.

  18. Granted, Annie did act like a little girl with a crush at the start of season 2. That was rather poor writing to backtrack on how Season 1 ended.
    Jeff acting like his head didn't hurt when Annie wasn't around? you mean when he couldn't milk it for sympathy from Annie and an excuse for them to go off alone?
    My complaints and expectation are based on the fact that Jeff and Annie have mutually stated that they care for one another, and often comfort and support one another. Annie has imagined being married to Jeff, and Jeff has shown that Annie is the only real person in his heart.

    Compare that to Jeff and Britta, where they slept together, then stopped because there was no appeal when the secret was out. Britta who said she only slept with Jeff because she hated herself, and that he was emotionally distant with her (while Jeff has been evasive with Annie on the topic of their relationship, he has sat down with her several times and discussed feelings). Plus she is quite quick to bring up the fact that sex with Jeff was bad (usually in general, but once comparing him to Troy) And how along ago was it that Jeff admitted he only was attracted to Britta when she was popular, and compared her to a piece of candy?

    I wish they hadn't arbitrarily sunk the Troy/Britta relationship.

  19. "Jeff acting like his head didn't hurt when Annie wasn't around? you mean when he couldn't milk it for sympathy from Annie and an excuse for them to go off alone?"


    What the HELL are you talking about? LMAOOO. See if you can follow me here:


    In the one timeline Annie had to pick up the pizza, Jeff acted all butthurt when he hit his head, which is likely his GENUINE response.


    In the other timelines, when he hits his head, Annie asks him if he's ok and whether it hurts. And he says, "Not that much..." or something along those lines to appear unaffected. He didn't say, "Oh it actually DOES hurt, can you look at my boo-boo, pweeease?"


    Conclusion: He's not himself around Annie. He's himself around everyone else. He's a fakey fraud around Annie.


    I didn't even bother reading the rest of your post cos it's clear I'm dealing with someone who can't even watch the episodes through an objective lens.


    Later.

  20. So you are extrapolating from a single incident from one episode and concluding that Jeff is a fake around Annie, and only Annie, but not others? The same Jeff who pretends to text people "so they don't see how broken he is."

    I may have worded it a bit poorly, but do you actually have something to refute my other points, or was it easier to claim I am not objective, ignore everything else, and call it a win?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Uh, no, I'm not responding to your previous post because:


    a) you clearly don't have a grasp of what's going on on the show. I know Chaos Theory is more complex episode, but I think you're having a harder time with it than others. Come to think of it, you're a J/A shipper. That explains pretty much everything.


    b) I don't care about shipping enough to get into a back-and-forth with you and waste my time. Go ahead and ship your J/A. I don't effing care.


    Seriously. I'm being nice here by responding again to say I ignored you because you clearly have zero idea what's going on. Why bother. Bye.

  22. Devolving a discussion into personal attacks is poor form. You aren't going to change my mind, and I'm not going to change yours, but insulting people is not going to help you make your case regardless.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm with you. These kinds of posts by J/A shippers is basically why most fans can't stand "shipping' on Community. I have zero problem with Jeff and Britta hooking up again because their fans aren't rabid, making demands from the writers and basically acting like a bunch of self-entitled brats not getting their way. It's Harmon's show - let him tell the story before you jump down his throat and excoriate him. It's so tiresome. Jeff/Annie are tiresome. And like you said upthread, Jeff/Britta are already like a married couple so it makes sense for them to rekindle *something* since they've changed from how we knew them in S1 and 2.
