We haven't had a single "Outrageous Outfit Entrance" from the Dean this season, have we?

For all the others who loved this week's tag, Dan Harmon talks all about its genesis in the newest Community Postmortem:quote:Yahoo:The show’s cartoon logic — the idea of following an idea to crazytown and beyond, but still being logical — is something you don’t see anywhere else. Another show might have a guy who buys a giant hand, but what is it about your thought process that generates the giant watch and the boy dragged away by a giant kite? I just discovered these Q&A's, will have to read the rest. Starting with Grifting 101, to get some goddamn answers

Goddamn, the Grifting 101 Q&A reveals that in a later episode this season, Dan's wife Erin McGathy is going to be playing someone's fiancée. Dan then mentions that Erin's character's fiancée is "kind of a jerk," which I think in descending order of likeliness would be Jeff, Elroy, Frankie (most hilarious option IMO). Maybe Frankie wouldn't be so unlikely, though, considering that neither Jeff nor Elroy currently seems ready for a stable relationship, let alone marriage? So my interest is sufficiently piqued for whenever that happens, maybe second-to-last episode since the finale will be another paintball extravaganza?

Just caught up on the latest episode. If you can call that good tv then you must really love this show and its characters unconditionally. 95% of the episode wasn't funny, hell, barely attempted to be, and the concept wasn't anywhere near good enough to justify it. The tag was pretty good. But Jesus, that episode was aggressively mediocre.

He also narrated a documentary for them a few years ago and had a direct interaction with Jeff while doing so.

That's the Community I love. Stylish and hilarious. Also, Kumail being in it and during the party scene, just made me think of the X-Files episode Unrequited. CelticPredator fucked around with this message at 10:26 on May 19, 2015 |

The action scenes in this one were the best of any paintball episode, both in design and execution. I forgot the one reason I don't like good Community; it makes me concerned over the show's future.

The scene with Dean in the elevator was pretty sweet. I was expecting the crutch on the disabled guy to secretly be a paintball gun.

Unless I'm totally mistaken (and that's certainly a possibility) we never actually found out who Silver Ballz was. At first I just assumed it was Lapari, since he was the most obvious antagonist, but he's one of the few people it absolutely could not have been, since he was present in the shootout in the cafeteria where Abed and Annie were shot by silver paint, and his gun was loaded with green paintballs. Was it really just some anonymous City College flunky? For some reason that seems unsatisfying. The fact that it's not addressed seems conspicuous. Other thoughts on the matter: -One would assume that since the custodians are running the underground paintball war in collusion with city college, they'd be working in tandem with Silver Ballz if he was indeed also working for them. But then, what was their plan? Was the "assassination attempt" on Lapari always meant as a feint, and to what end? Lapari's Army seemed primed to enter the cafeteria. Did they just want a huge bloodbath with as many people there as possible? Was the disabled kid in on it, or was Jeff's overreaction an unexpected surprise? -Was Koobler being found out and having his email hacked part of this "plan?" If so, why? If not, we're back to my question about why Silver Ballz would hint at an assassination of his supposed ally in email. -Why was Silver Ballz's name in his email that even before he decided on the color of his paintballs? -Hey actually what was city college attempting to accomplish with this? They tried the whole "put up a big prize to incentivize the students to destroy their own school" thing already, and it worked out terribly for them. They even had a ringer that time, too. And poo poo, since it all had to happen underground, the amount of collateral damage this time around was totally negligible. -On that note, and this is really quibbling, if Lapari is frustrated with having to clean up after paintball every year, why would he team up with the group that caused the biggest, most extensive damage of all time. -Maybe it was Frankie. I don't know what her motivation could possibly be. But she disappears right before Abed and Annie get shot. Pretty crazy theory, I know. Now someone is going to tell me that I missed the obvious scene where they revealed that Leonard was the real Silver Ballz and I've totally been overthinking this.
