This isn't bad news to me. Troy and Brita are the two worst characters on the show.

At worst Troy is the 3rd best.
He has the funniest lines on the show.

He's been wanting this for awhile. Sad to see it actually happen though.


Time for him to focus on his rap career. Gambino

And he's getting his own show.

But I still hate this.

Yea, I love Gambino. Camp was the last album I bought and Royalty is the last mix tape I really listened to, but this sucks. I love Troy and Abed.
I'm sure he could work on the rap career and Community, but his own show as well is probably a little too much.

FUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Eta: also didn't realize they're only doing 13 episodes next year, so not as bad as I initially thought

Dean Pelton at #2? Kill yourself

But seriously. That's absurd.

Dean Pelton has been amazing since he was made a full time cast member.

Troy is far and beyond my favorite character on the show, but Glover has outgrown that role, in my opinion.

Dean Pelton was one of the worst parts of season 4.

Troy and Abed's friendship is the only reason to watch the show.

Everything else is used up sitcom standards, but at least they acknowledge it.

This.

I'll give them one more shot. If the first episode sucks, I'm done.

I'll grant you that. Still, if they are going to salvage Rash's character they have to tone it down to season 2, possibly season 3 levels.

It seems people either really like that episode or thought it sucked. I was not a fan.

Eh, that episode had moments, but overall it was pretty

I was most impressed with the care Glover and Pudi took to mimic smaller things like inflection and body language.

They ran Winger's shtick into the ground this season and then made him morally aware at the end of each episode. I got sick of it. At the end of the season I still cared about Troy, Abed, and Annie.

And I love Jim Rash. I think he's great.
