Episode 59: Community, Community VS. Arrested Development, Top 5 TV Schools

Super Fantastic Nerd Hour!

“My umbrella concern is that you as a character represent the end of what I used to call ‘our show.’“ Community returns and we review the Yahoo! produced sixth season premiere. Does this new Community still have the same mix of meta, self-aware, existential angst of its former NBC self? Is there enough of the original cast to keep the show going? And what’s the deal with those tech problems behind Yahoo!’s launch? In the INFINITE CROSSOVER CHAMBER, it’s a streaming showdown between Yahoo!’s Community and Netflix’s Arrested Development. Class is in session as we rank our top 5 TV schools.
