Guess I'm a bit biased in favor of sitcoms, b/c I think Community is decent. Not great, but I'm rooting for it. I'm just sad to see sitcoms go the way of the dinosaur, especially in favor of reality TV, which I just don't enjoy at all.

But I don't think Community is nearly as good as Modern Family, which I've thoroughly enjoyed and look forward to every week. It's laugh-out-loud funny but the characters are still endearing. Perhaps that's what missing from community--helping the viewers to empathize with the characters. Thus far, the Community folks seems like caricatures.

it was always scheduled to move to 8 o'clock to make way for 30 Rock, they just wanted the first few episodes to play after the office to get as big an audience as possible.

cc is annoying - overll I thought last nights ep. was better than ep #2. Glad 30 Rock is on

I saw the pilot and thought it had potential, missed the second episode.

Joel McHale is the weak link, he's just terrible ... they should make him go away and see how the rest of the cast does.

I'm reviving this because it's been on for awhile and has quickly become my favorite sitcom. The characters have settled in and gone in directions I didn't originally see them going in. They are not stereotypical in the least. In fact, that the show constantly surprises me is one of the best things it has going for it.

Wow I didn't realize the show has been on so long! I think the show has improved a lot and am really starting to enjoy it. It's a great supporting cast, who are finding their stride together.

I like Joel the least, he's ok but I think he is best as a straight man to the ensemble, rather than having large story lines devoted to him. I also don't find the main female lead funny.

I'm sure I'll keep watching, but I don't know if I would follow the show to another night. JMO

I love Community. And Joel McHale with his shirt off every so often doesn't hurt.
