Abed's Roommate Rules

deejul:

Abed is my perfect roommate.

 So.  Like.  You remember that time that Abed didn’t want Troy to move in with him because he didn’t want to ruin their relationship?  Giant cookie, et cetera?  I mean, obviously these rules here are mostly just for fun, but what if he did have a list of roommate rules?  What if he set everything up deliberately so that their relationship would always be framed in the context of television tropes, and nothing could ever change or go deeper because deep down he knows that he Would Not Know How To Deal With That if it did?

hopsterliving: ifitgivesyoujoy: hopsterliving: I completely agree with this, it’s because it’s not really Commuity, exactly.  What do you mean by this, exactly?  I respect your opinion, obviously, but I’m wondering why you don’t think it’s really Community. You know how Community, this past season more so, has this sort of emotionaless uncategorizable style of comedy, that’s just so good you can’t define it? Well, I think that the Christmas episode was easier to define, I didn’t like the music (too corny). Don’t get me wrong, I thought it was VERY funny, but it isn’t what I want from Community  I wouldn’t call Community’s comedy emotionless.  It’s very emotional, in its own way - most of the episodes can be taken completely seriously as well as on a comic level - and this may have been one of the least emotional episodes of the season.  (I mean, Abed had his issues, of course, but they sort of took a back seat to the adventure.) I saw it as any of the “theme” episodes.  The style changed a little, just like it did in American Poultry or My Dinner with Abed or any of the paintball episodes - but there was still an undercurrent of Community.  (And the music HAD to be corny.  It was a riff on every awful stop-motion Christmas special ever.) Of course, if it’s your least favorite, that’s fine.  But I don’t quite get your reasoning, I guess?  It doesn’t matter, of course.  Don’t feel like you have to defend yourself.  :)
