Community Rewatching 101

He’s Senor Chang, and he cannot be killed. This is the life lesson imparted to the crew of Community Rewatching 101, who would all love to be as immortal and well-loved as this great Spanish teacher. As they investigate, er, Season 1’s “Investigative Journalism,” the topic of abrupt change in a sitcom environment comes to the forefront. And no, nobody likes Buddy.

The first Christmas at Greendale is an odd one for both the study group and our Community Rewatching 101 crew. Fights, guilt trips, Winter Doodles, and Forrest Whittaker glares abound -- not to mention an unusual approach to discussing various religions on TV -- as we talk about Episode 12, “Comparative Religion.”

Could it get any more uncomfortable in the room? That’s what the Community Rewatching 101 team will discover as they sit down to have “The Talk” about Season 1’s “The Politics of Human Sexuality.” Fortunately, they have a never-ending supply of U.S. Presidents and Australian Prime Ministers as substitute references for human anatomy.

The Community Rewatching 101 crew is at full strength as they charge into a manic episode full of dalmations, rats, brownies, Irish folk singers, tigers, handsome hobos, Jack Nicholson, and deep conspiracy theories about what happened to Señor Chang’s wife.

With Heather AFK -- to save the world or somesuch -- the boys of Community Rewatching 101 debate the debate episode. Well, Thomas pours through the original script, Al quotes every scene verbatim, and Justin ships Annie and Jeff a little too hard. It’s that kind of show.

It may not be the funniest episode of Community ever, but “Home Economics” manages to capture the essential college experience: bad toilets, Polish Pavel, Cop Rock, and terrible jam bands.

What’s better than one Halloween party at Greendale? Two parties, a Beastmaster tripping, Urkel going rogue, and Batman swooping in to save the day! The CR101 crew declares “Intro to Statistics” the first true classic episode of Community -- and for good reason.

What truth lurks behind the doors of the women’s restroom? Who is about to emerge from a bush to ruin Jeff’s day? Why did Greendale invent the most terrifying mascot ever? And where is Al? Find out all these and more as the CR101 crew covers “Football, feminism, and you.”

Greendale needs a theme song, Britta's the key subject of the Trial of the Century, Abed may be an alien, and the CR101 crew has no idea how to make sense of any of this weirdness! They'll petition the spirit of Luis Guzmán to lend his aid as they push further into season one. Luis, save us!

Thomas is freezing, Heather is full of stroganoff, and Shirley is on the rise in this episode of Community Rewatching 101! The crew delights in the genuinely fun "Social Psychology," where Abed breaks the Duncan Principle, Jeff bonds with Shirley, and Vaughn takes his shirt off.
