Trivia

In 2018, on an episode of his podcast, "Harmontown," Dan Harmon offered a public apology to Megan Ganz, who had been a staff writer on Community. Harmon admitted that he sexually harassed Ganz, tried to gaslight her into believing it wasn't happening, and then retaliated against her professionally when she made it clear she had no romantic interest in him. As part of his apology (which was nearly eight minutes long), he said, " I certainly wouldn't have been able to do it if I had any respect for women." The public radio program "This American Life" aired a segment on May 10, 2019, dedicated to the incident. See more »

Finally!
1 November 2009 | by ovanklotSee all my reviews

Finally, after a long dry-spell, I have found a live-action TV show that actually makes me laugh again.

Watching this show made me burst out laughing so many times. The script is wonderfully written and the actors have excellent comedic timing to match it. Sure, there are a few less-than-funny parts about it, but then again, it's not sketch comedy, so it can't be funny all the time.

McHale leads nicely, but both he and Gillian Jacobs do a weird 180 degree turn in character after a couple of episodes. It was supposed to be a step meant to make them seem more human and vulnerable, rather than absurd, comedic characters, but ends up making you a bit uneasy. A special kudos goes to Ken Jeong, for portraying one of the funnier characters portrayed on screen as of late.
