Is Malcolm Jamal Warner slated for any guest appearances? I can't see them not doing an episode addressing Shirley's family troubles. Could even be next week, judging from the episode title.

Yvette Nicole Brown is probably the most underused member of the cast. That said, I do get what Harmon meant when he commented about being uncomfortable writing for her because she and Shirley are so far removed from him in terms of experience.

Judging from the promo pictures, she'll have more to do next week. As for why she always gets short changed in terms of stories and character development, I'd assume the writers being 90 % white dudes has something to do with it.

She is, and maybe he should, like, hire someone who isn't uncomfortable writing for her or something. thexerox123 posted:Didn't they have quite a few more female writers during season 1? Yeah, I think so. At any rate, the writing for the female characters was way better in season 1 than it's ever been since.

Republican Vampire posted:IIRC a Sony exec insisted that they aim for gender parity in the writers' room in season 1, but she's since left. Yeah, this is what happened. From what I gathered from his own statements, Harmon said that while it was difficult to do due to the lower number of female writers, it was enormously valuable for the team, and I think he at least tried to do it again with Season 2. The high rate of writer turnover for the show eventually forced them to stop being quite so picky, however.

Am I the only one who died during the Dean and Duncan's little thing at the end of the episode? I always look forward to the last 30 seconds of the episode and this one was pretty good I really love Jim Rash.

I was a little disappointed we didn't get an update on the adventures of Troy and Levar Burton. At least not one I caught or has been mentioned yet. I was looking at everything on that bulletin board other than the Old Timey Photo looking for clues.

S05, E08 (First Aired: March 6, 2014) Dean Pelton lets two designers test their new social networking application at Greendale, leading to a war among the students; Professor Hickey decides to go underground until the battle ends. Sounds like it could be the Stardoz episode? If so, I can't wait. Also,

I was looking at everything on that bulletin board other than the Old Timey Photo looking for clues. There was.  It reads: GCC 506/507 Has anyone heard from Troy? Is it true? He may have fallen into a perfect storm? His last contact location was DMS 70' 23' 49.68'. Could a "live" "Troy and Abed in the morning" via satellite be on the Horizon? Throw us a lifeline! GCC513 It was there in 506 but you couldn't read it.

Has the book entitled 'Trout' always been in Hickey's office? (bottom left) If it's in reference to Jonathan Bank's character Mike Ehrmantraut on Breaking Bad, has there been any other allusions since his appearance in Community? Just seems very purposeful being placed in his office. Or maybe I'm reading into it too much. Or maybe I miss Breaking Bad too much.

Spalding posted:What the hell? One of the regular cartoons posted in the politicartoons thread is Mallard Fillmore. The author of the comic, Bruce Tinsley, has alcohol issues, so Mallard is generally referred to as being a drunk duck. Mallard Fillmore is also known for forgetting to tell jokes, so I don't know why being drunk would help make a duck more funny. Since Lucky Ducky is the actual funny duck from political cartoons, it's clear the duck isn't poor enough to be funny.

hahaha Dan Harmon decided to bitch out some girl on tumblr for I guess posting a gif? with nothing in the original post to insinuate that she was even talking about Community. Anyone have any clue here, or is this just Harmon being a baby? (ignoring the fact that responding and posting that is pretty drat stupid already)

But yeah I was gonna say, tumblr users have a habit of putting pithy insults and such in the tags instead of the main post, so there was probably something else in there.

I'm glad Britta is getting some depth back. Pity it had to come with Duncan and Jeff going after her. Abed being called out felt good too after the rest of the group has become more accustomed to him. Chang's plotline was the stand out though.
