When rewatching the series, the thing I was most surprised by is the fact that you could legitimately think that maybe Jim's affection for Pam *was* one-sided.

The real question is… where did the Holocaust rate on a scale of Community Season 2 to Community Season 4?

I bet Morgan Freeman could answer that question.

"on course to kill the franchise in half the time with twice the budget"

I like to think of him as the real life version of George Costanza.

Not a huge fan of the "Favorites" list for next season. If I were running the show (and I have fantasies about that often), I would get:
