NBC's Community follows ex-lawyer, Jeff Winger as he tries to get a legitimate bachelors degree after he was dis-barred from his old law firm. Enrolling at
Greendale Community College, a school that prides itself on being the 2nd best Community College in the state (by GreendaleCommunityCollege.com), Jeff creates an imaginary Spanish study group, in an attempt to date
Britta Perry, a fellow Spanish class mate. In doing so, Jeff walks in on a real study group that
Abed Nadir (another Spanish student) has invited in Jeff's absence. The new group consists of Annie Edison (the brainy go-getter),
Troy Barnes (the
drop-kick jock), Pierce Hawthorne (the old one), Shirley Bennett (the Christian single-mother), Britta Perry (the drop-out anarchist), Abed Nadir (the Television totem) and Jeffery Winger (the dry, quick-witted ex-lawer who can talk his way out of any situation).
Throughout the show's current 5 seasons, the study group have become a family of loveable misfits indulging in mis-adventures time and time again. Whether it's whole campus paintball tournaments, saving their school's
a-sexual Dean, Craig
Pelton, or planning elaborate heists, Community is a clever comedy that never talks down to its audience (unless you count gas-leak year) and is a treat to observe for anyone with a sense of humour.
