Let's Discuss This Creepiness The pilot episode of Community, starring Joel McHale, Chevy Chase, and Donald Glover is now on-line! You can watch it! The preview looked good! That Breakfast Club joke is probably a little awkward now, admittedly! Who knows?!

Poor Chevy morphed into Dick Cheney.

Dick Cheney is an evil wasp from the bees-nest of hate mongering.

I would have enjoyed the pilot much more if the promos didn't give away EVERY single punchline ahead of time. It was the Rush Hour trailer of TV promos(?).

Still, this is looking like a big source for Lots of Love in the fall.

This episode was really pretty good. Cast is great, writing is solid. The Derrick Comedy kid's slumdog millionaire line made me chuckle. I am pretty excited about this show actually.

Laughed a few times, but it was pretty week. I hope it improves, this show has so many people in it that I wish I could know personally.

I fear that this show is gonna pull a scrubs; funny at first, but eventually weighed down by its plot and tender moments.
