It was good, also there was some green stuff in it that was also chocolate. Ok that's better, I thought it was someone's gross and crazily immediate reaction to the episode

Don't know if this was mentioned already, but rewatching Cooperative Polygraphy I realized that Jeff's 40-year-old scotch was the same one that was bequeathed by Pierce, and likely included Pierce's birthday card in the box. Great callback!

Didn't really like this episode at all. It just felt like a kinda lame version of something that has already been done in this show.

I re-watched the GI Jeff episode and now my working theory is that the reason the ending is so "cheesy sitcom"-esque is because Jeff never escaped. Jeff only made it into the next, unknown layer, live-action television, where he'll continue to live out his coma having PG rated misadventures and learning life lessons.

Series is going to end the same way Roseanne ended. Its all just a bunch of Abed's tv scripts written to cope with the death of Pierce and Jeff, Britta being jailed, Troy being lost at sea, and Annie's suicide.

Honestly, the GI Joe episode didn't hook me. I was clearly missing a lot of the references going on. But then again I was missing a lot of the references going on in the chicken nugget episode but I still found that one funny. The whole thing just fell flat with me. I did semi-enjoy the the mind gently caress of the commercials. I did laugh at Cobra wanting to see boobs. All in all though miss for me. swickles posted:Series is going to end the same way Roseanne ended.

This except right at the end, Inspector SpaceTime's telephone booth shows up and Abed goes inside and it disappears. I can't imagine how hilariously angry some of the posts here would be.

Irish Joe posted:What are Saturday Morning Cartoons? I was born in 1994, and I'm starting to have moments like this slowly starting to creep into my life.  On the topic of the episode; I felt like I got most of the gags in the episode, but mostly through pop-culture osmosis than familiarity with the source material. So I dunno what to take away from this.

If you've seen one children's show created to be licensed out for a zillion toys, lunchboxes, etc. you've seen them all. If you weren't old enough for G.I. Joe, you'll remember Power Rangers or Pokemon which a lot of the gags in the last episode could have easily applied to.

I think they were more referencing the fact that once Cartoon Network came along the saturday morning cartoon died out because you could watch cartoons anytime instead of the designated cartoon ghetto on network television. And the Cartoon Cartoons of the late 90s were brilliant and I will not hear otherwise.

That's what DVD's/Netflix are for! Plus, even if it isn't on Saturday morning there are some excellent kids shows out that have some adult appeal.

I don't think it's that simple, I was a big saturday morning cartoons kid and I wasn't a big fan of this episode. Though, I guess I would still say that I "liked" it, it's just that for Community, just "liking" an episode feels like a huge disappointment. I feel like whoever said that it was a great gag that got stretched too far was dead-on. The little "don't do graffiti" spot was almost perfect.

They were definitely a thing well into the early 2000s (or whenever that TMNT cartoon came on). I remember the Fox Box (later 4Kids TV) but a lot of their programming near the end was poorly dubbed anime instead of "sell you a toy" sort of stuff.

The Cobra Commander is gay and no killing gags, in particular, fell flat for me. Its pretty obvious in retrospect why Dan was late with the script: a lot of it just doesn't work.

As a kid growing up in Québec, I'd watch Saturday morning cartoons on Fox even though I didn't speak a word of English just to see those amazing toy commercials. There's a law over here that makes it so you can't advertise to kids under 13.

In Canada, we never had Cartoon Network. We had this weird thing called YTV, but 90s of its programming was as I described or kid friendly versions of other shows like video countdowns and "current affairs" programing. The NBC/CBS/ABC cartoon mornings vanished in the early 90s, replaced by as i said, really bland kid friendly sitcoms with Saved by the Bell being the most edgy. In the 80s, as a Kid i remember plopping down in front of the tv saturday morning and watching straight from 8am to noon, and Star Trek came on, I never got to see the whole episode because afternoon Saturday was shopping time, so we went to the mall. To show how effective these were, I always got a GI joe (because they were like 3bux for a figure) when we went, and I always got someone who was on the show that day.

Occupation posted:People really underestimate the cultural and memetic penetration the GI joe cartoon has had. I've never seen an episode and know the theme, the federal council for children's safety, that cobra had his cobra crew or whatever they were called, everyone had a ridiculous code name that was usually based off either their physical appearance or whatever their unique ability was, that knowing is half of the battle, that cobra always had ridiculously convoluted plans to both conquer the world and destroy the joes, and that everyone fought with lasers because you couldn't show guns in a kids cartoon. Also that nobody ever died but they kept on expanding how many joes were in the show and joes would "die" by falling off of cliffs or being sent back in time or whatever so they would have a regular rotation of new toys Look, I think you're overexplaining. The bad guys are snakes and the good guys are army people.
