One of the best shows ever....if you exclude the pitiful last season (or two).

Votes: 293,254
I think that Community is a brilliant show. It took me a while to get into it so I never watched it during its first run, I only catch the reruns. The reruns rarely show the last few seasons (with all the ups and downs) and am curious to watch those. But, setting that aside, Community is so brilliantly clever. A paintball western, anime, puppets, Law & Order Community, Christmas cartoon, zombies.... so good!

Stars: Emmy Rossum, William H. Macy, Ethan Cutkosky, Jeremy Allen White
Votes: 284,885
This is a favorite tv show of mine up until the last couple of seasons. It’s sad when a favorite starts to stagnate and season 9 ep 1 is so laughable that I don’t think I’ll watch the rest of the season. Regardless, this stays on my fav list.

Stars: Jared Keeso, Nathan Dales, Michelle Mylett, K. Trevor Wilson
Votes: 29,429
The first 2-3 seasons are on my favorites list. I feel like it has started to loose some of its fun plot lines and instead focuses on fast witty lines, and so many of the characters have begun to sound the same.
