Damnit, I somehow thought today was tomorrow and now I'm sad I don't have any Community on my tivo :(

After hearing that Joel McHale was instrumental in getting Dan Harmon back, I want a DVD extra where he and the cast march to the offices of the Sony execs, where he delivers a Winger speech to bring Dan Harmon home.

I didn't mind the Inspector Spacetime stuff in season 3, but I think the references in season 4 crossed the line between 'material related to a larger point' and 'pandering.' Really, the only good part about the IS convention episode was Britta using the female Inspector to provoke Abed and even that went nowhere.

Well I got that general gist, what did nerds on the internet do with it I mean? Seemed like a little thing that would pop up in series from time to time but without enough canon behind it to actually build a fanbase around.

It got taken over by Doctor Who fans, who overdid it in the worst possible ways.

Dr. Who nerds got really into it, like making a hundred TV Tropes pages about Inspector Spacetime but all they did were change some names around. The actor who played IS also made a terrible web series about it.

The tropers were the worst about it because the episode summaries are copy/pasted Doctor Who episode synopses but with some of the names changed to different things. Not funny or original or clever things that are like, jokes or something, just page after page of ersatz Doctor Who plots.

Most of the poo poo that happened I put in the character bios in the OP.

The only important thing that happens happens in the only episode worth watching. Episode 11 Basic Human Anatomy feels like a Season 3 episode that accidentally wandered off and got separated from the rest of the group.

If you still decide not to watch it: Troy and Britta break up. That's about it. But you should watch it because it's the only part of season 4 that's actually a funny episode with jokes that make people laugh.

Oh and I guess the finale has Jeff (and Pierce) graduate too, that's probably important.

Herstory of Dance is pretty good. The A-story is perfunctory; Britta is being Britta and Jeff (and the Dean) are trying to take her to task for it, but Pierce ironically is the one to save her and basically tells Jeff to lay off.

But the B-plot involves Abed doing one of those two dates on the same night things, then ends up getting a girlfriend for real in Brie Larson and she's really cute :3:

Her name is Brie Larson.

Brie Olson was Charlie Sheen's pornstar girlfriend.

That might have made for a very different episode. Good thing Leonard knows the electric bass.

And he has a half-brother, Adam Devine.

I almost typed Adam Levine, which also would've made for a very different episode.

That plot ended, the group just never found out he was faking it. But they also never believed it in the first place.
