Pop Pop!

Actually it's just a quote from Dan Harmon:


"There is one [episode] that seemed "cursed," and that was the Election Theme. We tried to do a very similar one last season, in which Jeff becomes the puppetmaster behind Troy's new political career - one which is brought on by a chicken finger shortage - and the table read for the script was so shitty that we threw the entire thing out, and with two days to shooting, rewrote it with Abed at the center instead of Troy, and made it an organized crime story instead of a political story. That of course became the Chicken Fingers episode we know. But I did always like the political story, so we tried to resurrect it again this season, and it was a fricking catastrophe. We ended up pulling together a decent episode in the edit bay, but if you were there for the process leading up to it, you would say, "holy crap, this story does NOT want to be told." And it pretty much never will be, because what started as Jeff coaching Troy became Jeff running against Annie, and we basically bailed, filled it with jokes and ran for our damn lives."


This is a quote from Dan Harmon on a Community reddit, and there are toooons more. Danny Pudi and Donald Glover have pages on reddit, too. So if you wanna feel like a big loser and stay up all night long (yeah, it's almost 5 am) reading about Community online you can!


Also, remember Britanick? Well they just made their best video yet!
