Inception owns

Guess I have to turn in my critic's card
I actually liked three of these. Surprised, I was.

Thanks for this show, Mr. Harmon
Like few other shows on television, Community just makes me happy. It's so much fun to watch.

I'm not a Pitchfork disciple, but that was the same year as Dear Science and the first Vampire Weekend album. Those albums were streets ahead of Volume One.
