Fan Favorite

I feel like I have been quite productive today because I just hung out here the whole day. Just voting and voting the whole day. And I was probably motivated by this latest ratings. While I haven’t watched the episodes of season three (especially what have been making the rounds as the legendary “Remedial Chaos Theory”), I believe I am a staunch fan of Community, and have been voting on this TV Guide thing for the past few days. I still can’t believe that it doesn’t garner as much recognition ratings-wise (and is on the brink of cancellation!), because it certainly is a great show. It has a superb cast and a very genius creator with a hardworking team of writers. Their guest stars are impressive too (e.g., Jack Black), and the Troy/Abed moments at the end (their “donde esta la biblioteca” back in the first season sealed it for me) are similarly stuff of legend.

I am not really your stereotypical industrious, hardworking student—not by a stretch. I just found out one of the most basic “doing what I love” kind of thing and just voted and voted and voted… and voted… and voted. Until now, as I type this, actually.

Of the other shows, I am quite familiar with Chuck, Game of Thrones, Dexter, The Vampire Diaries, and The Walking Dead. Of them, I have watched some episodes but of The Vampire Diaries, and I have Community head and shoulders above every single series in that list. I mean, I’ll answer Community and How I Met Your Mother if you really ask for my top TV shows. They are just at a different level on everything: from the cast to the script. Even the ad libs (as we later learn through behind-the-scenes commentary) make for great scenes as we re-watch the actual episodes themselves.

While we’re at it, vote for Community! I, for one, don’t want this show to get cancelled.
