It really seems like they're going for a Breaking Bad path here, where he just totally spirals into a villain. It's a different vibe than S1, but I'm interested to see where it goes.

The "shared experience" of Netflix shows is that first weekend they drop, when everyone is seemingly in a race to see who can finish first…which is lame, because the amount of people that can actually set aside the time to do that is probably pretty small.
I really don't mind this. The binge model works for some shows (OITNB is one for sure) but I can't help but feel my life would be a bit brighter if BoJack Horseman and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt took up more of it than a single weekend. Plus, I always hate how the conversation about Netflix shows is totally done after…
I kinda wanna rewatch Season 6 now that it seems (more?) confirmed that it's the last. I feel like I'd view some of it very differently in that light.
I don't see why they wouldn't just do a movie at that point.
Season 5 actually had some nice Britta episodes (Geothermal Escapism, Bondage and Beta Male Sexuality) but S6 felt like rock bottom for her. She's probably the only character whose ending I'm not quite satisified with.
Alison is building a pretty lucrative movie career for herself, and Gillian is the lead in a hyped Judd Apatow series on Netflix that already has a 2 season pick-up. So I'd say they're onto pretty big things.
No one "graduated" per se but Annie, Shirley, Troy, and Abed all moved on past Greendale. I think they all ended up in a good place that makes a lot of sense for their characters. And it really makes sense to me that Britta and Jeff would be the only ones to stick around.
Pudi immediately had a pilot offer so I think he'll be fine. It didn't go through, but it still shows he's seemingly in demand. (And it looks like he has another show in the works?)
I think ending here is a good place to bow out. They redeemed themselves with the last 2 seasons, which were not up to the lofty standards of 1-3 but were still a good course correction after the disastrous gas leak year. And that finale was truly something special. One more movie (to get that series finale hype that…
I think Season 9 has some issues that would come further into play in later seasons (even as early as next season), but I do find it surprising how quickly some people are jumping into "the show sucks now!" territory. We haven't entered the point where the characters became shadows of themselves yet, to me - right…
I feel like we're exaggerating how far into the decline we are here. This is still early Season 9, the characters weren't ruined beyond repair yet. We're only a season after Hurricane Neddy! That definitely wasn't just simple "Charlie Church" Flanders.
It's just the theme song, unfortunately. But they did mention in the Christmas special that Horsin' Around had 8 other Christmas specials so here's to hoping!
It's only been one episode. As great as episode 1 of S1 was, I wouldn't have expected the show's descent into insanity just from that episode. I'm sure things will take a turn into the unexpected, but even if they didn't, this was a hilarious and entertaining return anyway.
I was kinda floored when I realized it was her. This is her first work outside of Broad City, right? (Other than her web series.)
Definitely not - this is a show with more continuity than your average comedy (definitely more than your average animated comedy) and S2 picks up on a lot of important plot points that come into fruition over the course of S1.
I think the first 6 episodes of S1 were sent out to critics, which is literally RIGHT before it starts getting really good (episode 7 is the turning point.) Most S2 reviews have had a lot of "oh, it got a lot better!" backtracking.
"Assistants are like Belushi brothers: the good ones leave too soon and the bad ones never go away."
Humor-wise, it's basically 30 Rock meets Adult Swim.
