A critique of Community Season 4 (AKA "The Gas Leak Year")

Описание: With Community being released in it's entirety on Netflix and Hulu (including the hard to find Season 6 from Yahoo), and the announcement of a Community movie FINALLY coming to Peacock, now is the perfect time to give the series a chance! Whether it's your first viewing, or your 10th rewatch, there are so many wonderful things to appreciate about this show!
And while I'm sure there are a fair amount of people who still enjoyed Season 4 - I think I fall in the majority, when I say it was simply a weak season. It is missing so much about what worked before AND after it.

So please, join me for this exploration of the behind-the-scenes turmoil that affected the season, the resulting lackluster comedy, and the ways in which Season 5 and 6 completely turn that around!
There is a reason Season 4 has become know as "the gas leak year". I mean, other that the quotable meme-y-ness of it...

The loss of Chevy Chase / Pierce Hawthorn was always going to affect the show, but combine that with Dan Harmon's removal, and all the wheels started to fall off the ship. Can you tell I haven't spent much time around boats?

I used a few other clips. Like Joel McHale on Larry King, explaining why Chevy Chase left
   • Joel McHale On Why Chevy Chase Was Unhappy  
And Joel McHale and Jim Rash in Entertainment weekly discussing Season 4
   • Joel McHale & Jim Rash On 'Community' Seas...  

Also, please bring back Advanced Dungeons and Dragons! It's the best episode of the show!! I understand if the episode will need to be re-edited in some way. But it would be such a genuine shame to lose out on Pierce's character development, and the serious messages about mental health awareness.

I really enjoyed having the opportunity to revisit this video, and hope that people enjoy it even more than the original!
