When fast-talking lawyer Jeff Winger (Joel McHale) finds his degree has been revoked, he is forced to go back to school at Greendale Community College. Hoping to score points with a pretty coed, he invents a study group and invites her to join it. Imagine his surprise when she's not the only one who shows up for help with Spanish from the "board-certified tutor" he proclaims himself to be. Though his command of the language is anything but good, the members continue to meet and end up learning a lot about themselves.

Logan Rhoades BuzzFeed News But most of all, Season 5 completed what it set out to do... Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly In the thirteen episodes of Community's fifth season, there were a few Hall of Fame masterworks — "Cooperative Polygraphy," "Geothermal Escapism," "Basic Intergluteal Numismatics." Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Jace Lacob BuzzFeed News The long-awaited return of the NBC comedy — now back under the watchful eye of creator Dan Harmon — distances itself from its disappointing fourth season. Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Sage Young Bustle Our favorite misfits have lived to fight another day, and so has the fandom. Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Nadia Chaudhury Pajiba What did repair the broken show was bringing Dan Harmon back to fix its mistakes, revitalizing it from fan fiction into the show we used to (and now again!) love. Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Dan Van Winkle The Mary Sue Overall it was a solid start and was a second pilot exactly as promised, but the episode that aired after it certainly got to have a lot more fun.

William N Hurts that they lost characters, but so much development of the others makes it a must watch Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/23/24 Full Review Audience Member The show goes downhill as soon as Troy leaves, forcing new characters to fit just doesn't work, why are they all the sudden friends with the weird ass off putting forensics teacher? An episode to explain that would have been great. SO much of the writing and choices feel like too much desperation and not enough quality. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/20/24 Full Review Jasper S Just wrapped up the latest season, and it's a wild ride! 🌟 Now, switching gears - any fellow Rottentomatoes fans using Alight Motion for video editing?

Let's keep the cinematic vibes alive! 🎬 #AlightMotion #CinematicEditing #TVSeasonTalks https://myalightmotionapk.com/ Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/24 Full Review Max W Starting from Season 5, some of the regular characters gradually depart, and to maintain a balance in character interactions and narrative density, new characters are introduced accordingly. While audiences might not be entirely welcoming of this change, what Community excels at is ensuring that each character has their own path, and they may one day return to the Greendale family. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Pablo Y La vuelta de Dan Harmon se hace notar con el retorno a la esencia humorística del elemento sorpresa resultado de mezclar el absurdo caótico con la comedia inteligente. No obstante, esta temporada da síntomas evidentes de agotamiento, en gran parte debido a la ausencia de Chevy Chase y Donald Glover -cuya marcha de este último hace que el personaje de Abed pierda fuelle-. A ello hay que sumarle el hecho de la reducción drástica del número de episodios (igual que a la primera le sobran, a esta le faltan), aunque si bien es cierto que el ratio de buenos episodios se resiente en esta penúltima temporada. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/23 Full Review Benjamin S Community returns to it's absolute amazingness after the bad season 4. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
