Volume posted:Yeah I really don't blame Chevy Chase for getting pissed off with the way they were handling his character. He was 100% right that it would eventually just lead to him having a whole episode yelling out the N word. I think the worst thing for Pierce was that he started off as a strong Dan Harmon analogue, he literally draws a story circle in the second episode, but then all that attention shifted to Abed, leaving him without much of a character. So rather than being the Dan Harmon type who has crazy ideas, alienates people through insensitive comments, and then redeems himself through a brutal honesty and passion, he became racist and old, literally the only character traits the writers seemed to draw on when required to make a joke. I remember viewing the first episode of season 2, and seeing how they introduced Pierce again and thinking to myself "oh, pierce is just old jokes now".

1st AD posted:This episode, like many in seasons 4 and 5, seems rushed as poo poo, like they wrote enough material for a 40 minute episode then cut it down to 20 without cutting any scenes. If you watch the supplemental stuff like trailers or set photographs, there seems to be a ton of things that were shot but not used. Mainly the revolution I think.
