This is the obligatory comment that this episode (2.9) actually aired on Latvian Independence Day (Which was the parade in the blanket fort), November 18, 2010 I highly recommend reacting to the Sci-Fi original series, Farscape.
"Who is fat Neil?" Make sure not to skip "Advanced Dungeons and Dragons" to find out. Most streaming services took that episode out of circulation. Fun fact about conspiracy episode: Dan Harmon took the prop gun scene to the network censor and the censor asked "Can we make this about gun safety?" That's how we got the police officer added to the scene.
I completely forgot the Tig Notaro had a bit part in this show. Funny that they talked so much about science fiction TV and their waitress goes on to become a well-loved character in a science fiction TV show
I love these episodes, particularly Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design. The twists and turns of Professor P. Professorson! As a minor point, they might not have sang "Happy Birthday," in completeness, due to the fact that it is copyrighted.
They key word is NOW. You can sing it all you want NOW. But, up until a few years ago, movies and tv shows had to fork up $$ to sing fricking Happy Birthday. Ridiculous!!
@@RamblersInc the copywright holders actually were still trying to collect royalties after it went in to public domain. They had to pay back over $14million dollars in 2016
The guy flirting with Abed reminds me of when a straight guy is talking to a woman, and it happens to come up that she's not available, and he's like, "Why did you let me waste my time and talk to you, then?" Like we aren't people who might have interesting things to say.
To be fair, in this specific case the guy only got mad after he'd been VERY clearly flirting with Abed for a while (openly suggesting they go somewhere private, etc), and Abed hadn't ever said anything to indicate he wasn't interested in that way.
A Seven and Seven/7&7 is a highball cocktail containing Seagram's Seven Crown (a blended whiskey) and 7-Up (a lemon-lime soft drink). It is typically served with ice. It was one of the most popular drinks in the United States during the 1970s.
The guy flirting with Abed is Paul F Tompkins, another Mr. Show cast member and legendary comic. He does a very funny interview with Dan Harmon on RUclips on Speakeasy worth looking up.
@@RamblersInc Yes. He was the original one and then another comic took over. Paul interviewed Harmon, Britta, Annie and the Dean iirc. An original main cast member on Mr. Show Wiith Bob & David.
Love Conspiracy Theories with the pillow fort and "We started looting." Like Troy and Annie in Mixology. I'm with Abed on Farscape (but Stargate is also good).
Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design is such a great episode! The fort was absolutely amazing. I would love to do that; definitely on my bucket list to have a blanket fort . . . with hookers! And blackjack! Lol. And honestly, Leonard gets some good scenes in this one. For a small background character, he got some great lines and is very memorable.
@@RamblersInc Lol honestly it's a reference to Futurama, and if you've never watched THAT, I would HIGHLY encourage it. Along with Community, it's one of the funniest, cleverest, most topical shows ever made.
27:15 "Who the hell has an existential crisis at 19" Hilariously, that's how old I was when I had a proper existential crisis that completely changed me. It's actually not surprising, though, college years can introduce a lot of changes that bring you into conflict with the self you constructed growing up.
A great intricate episode with 2.9 and one of the sweetest episodes with 2.10. We perhaps begin to see that Jeff and Britta aren't more mature than the rest of the group. :) Jeff: "You are going to Nancy Screw me out of my credit." 😁
unlike most opinions, i find s2 ep. 10, really good, its not the usual goofy episode but its still nice and somber, it made me feel like troy really did matured even for for that night only 😂
Ah, episode 10, the only one that has both Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter in it. If you've watched BoJack Horseman (or even better, if you haven't and decide to react to it!), you'll get it.
I've seen the first 2 seasons of BoJack and just googled the cast list. How did I never realise Alison Brie was DIane 😱? Or that the bar guy was Mr Peanutbutter. Small world (unless Dan Harmon has some sort of a connection with BoJack)
I can see that it pains you when Abed makes a reference that you miss😂 Farscape is good. It's very different. But seeing it does nothing to enhance this episode. Coming up very soon though is something VERY DIFFERENT for Community. Hell, it's very different period!!! But, I can say no more. Being familiar with the source material makes it even better, but it's still great, regardless. Also, the dean freaking out and screaming that he didn't understand what was happening during the shooting scene😂😂😂 Because I felt like I was the dean in that moment...I'm SO CONFUSSSED!! Finally a 7 and 7 is Seagram's 7 (which is a Canadian whiskey) and 7 UP (aka ginger ale) Jeff would certainly dismiss this drink, which he quickly does..... Because 1) he appears to drink his whiskey straight (no mixer) 2) Being a guy who fancies himself refined, Jeff likely only drinks Irish whiskey, not Canadian 😆
It'll get to a point where I'll feel kike Abed's mocking me for missing a joke 🤣 So true. We were all the dean in that moment😂 Tut tut Jeff. Nothing wrong with whiskey and ginger ale. Hell, stick an umbrella in there if you wanna make it fancy 😆
Conspiracy theories and blanket forts is another of my faves..And the other one, while not as funny is nicely poignant.. And Stargate is better but Farscape is great too..
@@RamblersInc calling lemon lime soda lemonade is just weird over here in the states. Great cocktail is what a bar here called a southernn sidecar Bourbon Orange liqueur (Cointreau) Fresh lemon juice Sugared rim So good
@@gregthebaritone there are some great videos. That break down community’s story telling and Dan Harmon 360° story telling devices l. They’re really great
"Who the hell is Fat Neil?"
Oh, you wait....
I forgot they mention him here, plus we see him in Anthro and then he gives the tickets to Britta... all before his big debut

That's true. A point in time where you have to decide what the rest of your life's work is going to be. Crazy that it's at 17-19.

Jeff: "You are going to Nancy Screw me out of my credit." 😁
And yet they keep on getting made the mom and dad of the group (Britta less so as the show goes on) 😂
Farscape really is a good show!
Stargate is better

@@RamblersInc Jeff with an umbrella in his drink? You might as well imagine him playing pool in gym shorts......oh wait! 😝😂
🤣
The "where did you get THAT gun" reminded me of Michael Douglas - The Game (1997).
Dammit. Added to the watchlist 😂
@@RamblersInc Worth it.
Also, add The Man Who Knew To Little - Bill Murray (1997).
I've seen people get mad at the guy in the bar for the end of his conversation with Abed, but he was right. Stargate is better.
I'm pretty sure he said that out of spite though 😂
Conspiracy theories and blanket forts is another of my faves..And the other one, while not as funny is nicely poignant..
And Stargate is better but Farscape is great too..
Fat Neal and Annie's gun will be back😉
07:23 _What... the hell is going on there_?
Something a little more adult.
Ooohhhh ok gotchya 👍😂
wait...just incase I haven't.....eyes wide shut?
7 & 7 is 7-Up and Seagram's 7
And it’s a great drink !
Nothing wrong with whiskey and lemonade.
@@RamblersInc calling lemon lime soda lemonade is just weird over here in the states.
Great cocktail is what a bar here called a southernn sidecar
Bourbon
Orange liqueur (Cointreau)
Fresh lemon juice
Sugared rim
So good
@Knightowl1980 That sounds great 😍. Also sounds dangerous 😂. Like it'll hit you like a tonne of bricks 5 drinks later.
This was "The Game".
It was a genre. The Game isn’t original.
Aaaaannnnd another reference missed of a movie we haven't seen 😂
Conspiracy Theory with Mel Gibson is a good start.
I think you would understand the point of the first episode better if you saw the Rick and Morty episode, One Crew over the Crewcoo's Morty.
Community came out before Rick and Morty though
@@Knightowl1980 Yeah, but it directly reflects Dan Harmon's opinion on plot twists. That and the Terminator parody one.
@@gregthebaritone there are some great videos. That break down community’s story telling and Dan Harmon 360° story telling devices l. They’re really great
The heist one where everyone says "you s.o.b., i'm in" ?
