make sure not to skip 2x14. It's not on every platform. I think only Amazon Prime kept it. There is something in the episode that was deemed cancellable ( really not, it's so stupid). It's a GREAT episode that should not be skipped
I think this is one of the more underrated episodes of the show. It 's just surrounded by other iconic episodes and gets a bit forgotten. "You humble me" is such a powerful closing. Insanely excited for next week though.
i;m a year late to the party, but i agree with all of you. also if you notice at first shirley wanted to destroy his movie for her own selfish christian reasons......but when she heard him praying she understood that he fcked up, and the only way to help him was to be demonized by everyone and destroy the movie. that brief look they exchange when she's done says more than any dialogue could, they had an understanding of what happened. and the way they hold hands at the end is just beautiful. they dont usually have a lot of meaningful interaction, but in this episode i love their interaction.
As someone who loves this episode cause I laugh at the funny jokes, but has no affiliation with organized religion and only recognized some scenes from biblical studies, you guys just made me appreciate it even more. I always knew it was meta, but I didn't realize HOW meta it was. Awesome.
I love that about Community. Even if I don't have a full grasp on topics they build an episode around, I just initially know that its deep as he'll and has layers built on layers... Almost as if Harmon was building Worlds within Worlds. You just know that even if you don't see it, you know the layers are there. And that makes you seek out information which inevitably leads you to learn a bunch of cool sh*t you otherwise wouldn't have. In fact, Community is where I learned about the concept of being meta. Such a great show. Especially seasons 2-3 and 5.
I gave in and became a Four-Sight member yesterday and binged the rest of the available Community reactions. This was a mistake. I think I may have suffered brain damaged due to lack of oxygen from laughing with the Crew so much.
@@barbaros99 haha I’ve done exactly the same, the zombie episode was just too tempting. Spoilt myself for the next few weeks but it was totally worth it
Im sorry but if that’s the hardest you’ve seen Eric laugh, you need to watch more blind wave content. 😉 There’s like a number of times he’s laughed so hard he has cried.
This kinda stuff is really another example of why Blind Wave is so good as a reaction group. Just the great mix of knowledge you guys have, you end up appreciating and catching so much.
4:56 Eric's fanboy energy when it comes to Abed is the best. I really love how much and how strongly you guys laughed with this episode. This one has so many great lines and performances executed from the actors. Too hilarious, one of my favorites.
Ohh I love how much of the religious stuff you caught, but in the end it gets twisted and Shirley dies for Abed. She is willing to be the one who is punished (blamed by everyone at school) for His pride (represented by a movie that is a self-described egotistical mess), and he is thus spared from his fate of having this Awful movie ruin his reputation as a filmmaker.
@@JITCompilation oh it's definitely both. She still Fulfills the narrative within the school that Abed and the movie "are" Jesus and the word of God, but she's also the only one following any of his actual teachings. Abed doesn't do a single selfless thing this episode until Shirley "shows him how" and then he finishes her movie. She's the only person (in this plotline of this episode) who makes a real sacrifice for everyone else's sins. So yes she is the Judas and the Pharisee in the school, but she's Jesus in the episode. That's why the singing shifts to saying "Shirley" in the end
I thought it was her being the Pharisee's still and still having Jesus/Abed the film flogged and crucified and killed, thus fulfilling what the plan was. Albeit the twist here is she did it because it's what Abed/Jesus wanted to happen rather than unintentionally playing into it.
This episode is one of those rare ones that shows how deep down, when it really counts, Pierce is a stand up dude. Everything about his character says he would be running away with everyone else but he knows the guys in a bad way and he sticks around even though it gets him scolded by Jeff.
One of my favourite episodes of the show, and I had no idea how many religious references I had missed before this reaction - I love the episode even more now!
the family sitcom story with Jeff and Britta as the parents and Pierce the rebelioius teenager was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny. The B plots in Community are just as good and clever as the A plots.
The commentary on this episode is particularly good! I've seen other reactions that really miss a lot of the nuance in this series. There are so many layers, and you guys have enough base knowledge to pick up on it!
I just like this episode because of the absurdist subversion of the character roles in both plots, and because Abed and Shirley have a very sweet underrated dynamic
Ever since I heard Eric mention his Catholic upbringing, I've been very curious about what insights he might have on this episode. It was really interesting! Also, Aaron's cackling at the vast difference between "God of Farts"'s view count and the attendance numbers of Shirley's church, along with his huge grin and "Poor Shirley..." seemed almost sinister (Although I'm positive it wasn't ).
aw man, such an underrated episode. Meta religious criticism and teenage rebellion by senior citizens (SHUT UP LEONARD) in a 30min sitcom. Only community, And ya, I love that it all comes back to the core of this series....just people learning from each other how to be better people
When I was young, my family attended a church on a Sunday and there were 9 people there including the pastor. 7 of those people were my family and we were just visiting from out of state.
People have probably said it already, but you need to watch the episode "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons". It's Season 2 Episode 14, but it's not on Netflix!
You guys are so enjoyable to watch, and always seem to understand and point out things I missed,plus you encompass Movies, Games, and playthroughs. By far the best reaction Channel out there. Can’t wait to continue this journey with y’all
Oh, Eric. Oh, you sweet summer child. If you think this one was good, then just you wait until you watch the next 9! We're now officially entering on a roller coaster of constant awesome *COMMUNITY* episodes!
Does anyone know if the guys talked somewhere if they will react to the "Severance" tv series? Its a must see, hands down best tv series of 2022 and i am schocked i cannot find any reactions to it. I would love to see them react to it. The finale is the best finale of anything i have ever seen in my entire life
I’m an Alabama evangelical pastor that has seen “Community” COUNTLESS times. This episode always destroys me. The juxtaposition of Shirley the Christian being the modern Pharisee is just so clever. Nothing like “Community” on TV. Great reaction, guys!
So I learned Eric would love Golden Girls based on this episode. Also, next weeks episode is one of my all time favorite community episodes and I can’t wait
As someone who worked in KFC if the famous bowl is bad, that means that we we're using whatever was left. Usually the popcorn chicken is the worst cause it's just been sitting in the heater for sometimes hours.
Regarding the old people gang, that reminds me of that Monty Python sketch about "Grannies from hell" :D. That's basically it, a gang of old ladies wreaking havoc :D. Great reaction as always!
I love this show and B99 reactions because NOTHING else kills Eric as much as those. I swear one of theses days he’s going to pass out from lack of oxygen just from laughing for so long
I hope you guys react to some Charlie Kaufman movies at some point. Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and especially Synecdoche New York are all amazing films.
I'm on the opposite side of that loving old people that don't care situation. I was partially raised by my grandparents and all it taught me was that not all old people should be admired, liked, or even listened to.

I just now realized that the "Ancient Peoples" in the episode title is referring to Pierce and his friends. 😆😆
better late than never.
and they prefer to be called "hipsters"
I'll never not be entertained by Eric's look on his face as he's falling in love with Community. He's like a kid on Christmas morning.
I think this is one of the more underrated episodes of the show. It 's just surrounded by other iconic episodes and gets a bit forgotten. "You humble me" is such a powerful closing.
Insanely excited for next week though.
And I love she replies, "You humble me too."
Personally, this is one of the main ones I was looking forward to them getting to.
i;m a year late to the party, but i agree with all of you.
also if you notice at first shirley wanted to destroy his movie for her own selfish christian reasons......but when she heard him praying she understood that he fcked up, and the only way to help him was to be demonized by everyone and destroy the movie.

and the way they hold hands at the end is just beautiful.

@@pazuzuangel5033 Ok. Give me 3 examples
@@raykazmi8521 dont really keep track but rick and morty anatomy park episode comes to mind, hardest ive seen him laugh in a reaction i think
Leonard continues to live the thug life.
"Leonard likes this post"
No such thing as bad press
have you watched his food reviews? they are awesome. he got me hooked on let's potato chips. unlike the peasants who still eat splingles.....
I still rely on his pizza reviews. They never miss!
This kinda stuff is really another example of why Blind Wave is so good as a reaction group. Just the great mix of knowledge you guys have, you end up appreciating and catching so much.
unlike normies
@@Luke-cu7bf Yeah, I like the Normies, but things often fly right over their heads.
Eric's definitely gonna be one of those senior citizens who backs out of the driveway without looking
Honestly considering how many modern cars have rear view cameras I think many people will be despite the limitations on your field of view
He'd drive forward without looking. But it's okay, Abed will take the wheel.
@@nickv1212 as long as it's a Honda

"Good character work in a stupid situation." Perfect summary of Community 😆
Ohh I love how much of the religious stuff you caught, but in the end it gets twisted and Shirley dies for Abed. She is willing to be the one who is punished (blamed by everyone at school) for His pride (represented by a movie that is a self-described egotistical mess), and he is thus spared from his fate of having this Awful movie ruin his reputation as a filmmaker.
Or she was a modern portrayal of Judas who as loyal betrayer whose betrayal was a necessary part of the story.
@@arthurclifford8290 with Dan Harmon, it’s most likely both.
@@JITCompilation oh it's definitely both.

It's out of sequence, but it's reminscent of Jesus' Cleansing of the Temple scenes in Jesus movies.
I thought it was her being the Pharisee's still and still having Jesus/Abed the film flogged and crucified and killed, thus fulfilling what the plan was. Albeit the twist here is she did it because it's what Abed/Jesus wanted to happen rather than unintentionally playing into it.
Eric’s “He looked at me!” was such a fangirl moment I love it
This episode is one of those rare ones that shows how deep down, when it really counts, Pierce is a stand up dude. Everything about his character says he would be running away with everyone else but he knows the guys in a bad way and he sticks around even though it gets him scolded by Jeff.
6 SEASONS AND A MOVIE!!!!!!
4:56 Eric's excitement when he realized Abed broke 4th wall for a second there lol
8:50 I had to re-watch that many times because Eric's reaction is great.
Community will forever be the best show! And the movie is comiiiiing :D
One of my favourite episodes of the show, and I had no idea how many religious references I had missed before this reaction - I love the episode even more now!
the family sitcom story with Jeff and Britta as the parents and Pierce the rebelioius teenager was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny. The B plots in Community are just as good and clever as the A plots.
ABEEEED ABED ABEEEED

The you humble me lines from both Shirley and abed are just great .
I was upset they were cut from the reaction. Those lines define their relationship, and are beautiful.
I’m kinda sad you didn’t show your reaction to Abed’s: “You humble me” line. Always touches me
This is a top 10 episode for me . Easily the most underrated episode of community. Doesn’t get talked about w enough .
the senior gang is my favorite thing ever, Leonard was such a badass
i wish we got more of that
I always check the sections of the discussion when it starts, and seeing a huge one titled "Aaron Doesn't Understand The Bible" made me laugh
This episode always makes me laugh. ABEEED
you gotta watch this series every couple of years, every time you’ll find something different
Ever since I heard Eric mention his Catholic upbringing, I've been very curious about what insights he might have on this episode. It was really interesting! Also, Aaron's cackling at the vast difference between "God of Farts"'s view count and the attendance numbers of Shirley's church, along with his huge grin and "Poor Shirley..." seemed almost sinister (Although I'm positive it wasn't ).
One of my favourite end tags honestly. The apartment trio is the best
I find it sweet that despite being an Atheist, Britta was willing to help her friend make a religious video.
I love how Eric explains the story of Jesus in context to this episode to Aaron. Good Job guys, this was an awesome reaction.
I guess Aaron never paid attention at Sunday school
@@theawesomeman9821Or anything else.
aw man, such an underrated episode. Meta religious criticism and teenage rebellion by senior citizens (SHUT UP LEONARD) in a 30min sitcom. Only community, And ya, I love that it all comes back to the core of this series....just people learning from each other how to be better people
This is one of my favorite episodes XD Behold the greatness of Abed lmao
Fun Fact: Alison Brie, who portrays Annie, also is part of the main cast of Bojack Horseman.
When I was young, my family attended a church on a Sunday and there were 9 people there including the pastor. 7 of those people were my family and we were just visiting from out of state.
People have probably said it already, but you need to watch the episode "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons". It's Season 2 Episode 14, but it's not on Netflix!
They already switched to amazon prime
Getting rid of that episode is one of the dumbest entertainment things I've read about in a long time.
The official YT Community channel is streaming the series.
You guys are so enjoyable to watch, and always seem to understand and point out things I missed,plus you encompass Movies, Games, and playthroughs. By far the best reaction Channel out there. Can’t wait to continue this journey with y’all
Oh, Eric.
Oh, you sweet summer child.
If you think this one was good, then just you wait until you watch the next 9!
We're now officially entering on a roller coaster of constant awesome *COMMUNITY* episodes!
Can’t wait for next weeks episode!!
Does anyone know if the guys talked somewhere if they will react to the "Severance" tv series? Its a must see, hands down best tv series of 2022 and i am schocked i cannot find any reactions to it. I would love to see them react to it. The finale is the best finale of anything i have ever seen in my entire life
Oh hell yeah, I forgot that this episode is so early on in the series. One of my favorites.
Next episode is one of my fav!!! I'm soooo excited already 😄🤗
SO excited about next week! This round of episodes it's crazy good, every episode is better than the last one
4:32 an early interpretation of the Dan Harmon Story Circle.
Not much makes me happier than seeing people fall in love with this show
I love the Pearce at the police station scene and Abed is great in this one.
Your analysis of this episode was delicious. Yum!
Only watching this now, as I never got a notification for this episode.
And every week, we come closer to 2x14
cant wait to see the holloween episode next week.
These are my fav reactions right now
...and a movie
Stingray also plays a serial killer in the Apple + show Black Bird. Dude is a damn good actor
Can’t wait for next week.
I’m an Alabama evangelical pastor that has seen “Community” COUNTLESS times. This episode always destroys me. The juxtaposition of Shirley the Christian being the modern Pharisee is just so clever. Nothing like “Community” on TV. Great reaction, guys!
Yeah as a Christian it's SUCH a clever parallel.
4:00 I think you’d enjoy the show The Cool Kids (on your own time). Bunch of old people up to shenanigans.
I like to see older actors too, i don't know why producers think that we only want to see young actors, good writing is much more important
Great reaction! Also the famous bowls are awesome. 😂
Six seasons and a movie!
So I learned Eric would love Golden Girls based on this episode. Also, next weeks episode is one of my all time favorite community episodes and I can’t wait
Please react to Russian Doll!! I think you would love it!!
As someone who worked in KFC if the famous bowl is bad, that means that we we're using whatever was left. Usually the popcorn chicken is the worst cause it's just been sitting in the heater for sometimes hours.
i really hope they dont miss out on 2x14. cant wait to see them react to that
I always loved that despite being an Atheist Britta still helped Shirley with the religious promotion.
why am I always crushing so hard on jeff …
Regarding the old people gang, that reminds me of that Monty Python sketch about "Grannies from hell" :D. That's basically it, a gang of old ladies wreaking havoc :D. Great reaction as always!
This show simply showcases the best car stunts in movie history 👍🏻
Really like this episode.
Knowing you guys, idk how long y’all gone this far with out watching this show.😂
I love this show and B99 reactions because NOTHING else kills Eric as much as those. I swear one of theses days he’s going to pass out from lack of oxygen just from laughing for so long
someone please point me into the direction of one of the videos where these 3 are clean shaven
Same here
Fear The Walking Dead reactions & some of their reactions to the early episodes of DBZ Abridged.
@@mzakami3090 thank you, kind stranger
I never noticed it was a stingray. It’s so funny cause I’m watching you guys watch cobra Kai, can’t wait for the next episode.
5:53 never i thought i would hear those words spoken while laughing
Eric, I reacted at the same exact time and said the same thing when Stingrays actor came up lol. That caught me so off guard
If only Eric stuck with the altar boy gig. He could've made it to regionals
Can't wait for next week
I hope you guys react to some Charlie Kaufman movies at some point. Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and especially Synecdoche New York are all amazing films.
It was on that episode i knew i found out my new favorite show.
I legit got a KFC ad while watching this 😂
Guys I think this might be Eric's type of show.
5:57 who’s also in a couple episodes of Its Always Sunny.
Well into the 2nd season and Eric still pronounces Abed as "ah-BED". 😂
LOVE this episode
My girlfriend and I sing the “abed abed abeedddd” song at least once a month
If you guys want awesome Mac N Cheese. . . Cherry Street Pub in Lancaster (OH)!
I'm on the opposite side of that loving old people that don't care situation. I was partially raised by my grandparents and all it taught me was that not all old people should be admired, liked, or even listened to.
Where did you get that color correct chart thingy? It'd be nice to get one of them.
I LOVE this reaction.
Guys you need to watch Charlie Kaufman's Synecdoche, New York movie, you'll get more reference. It's a really good movie
I love how Eric got every single bible reference.
Fun Fact: The shot of the God of Farts shooting a laser out of his butt is Dan Harmon in his Channel 101 show, 'Laser Fart'.
Kfc? You should have had Mr.Clucks 😂

This episode is just peak life
