Reddit AMA with Dan Harmon. A must read.

In the DVD commentary for Horror Fiction, you start talking about the budget for the show and then there's about 20 seconds of silence. Right before the silence, you said:
The reason why season 2 looks better than season 3 is because I didn't buy a house yet. So really, the show needs more money to be spent on it.​
The next thing you can hear is Yvette talking about Daybreak. So what was edited out?


from the context you're describing, sounds like there's a good chance I started talking about how much of my own money I put into season 2 of Community. I'd estimate I put about $300K of my own cash into season 2, but I don't know the final tally because all I cared about was making the show good. The irony, or rather the complete lack of irony, is that the people that did care about that money are the same people that edited out me talking about it. To paraphrase Noam Chomsky, shame begets fraud and fraud begets force and force begets shame and fraud.

The rumour mill says that Chevy Chase walked off set at the end of filming for Season 3 because he refused to do something. What did he refuse to do?

He refused to do the "tag" for the Digital Estate Planning episode (the 8 bit video game episode). In the scripted tag, Abed comes to Pierce with the thumb drive he took, and says "Pierce, I've been able to adjust some of the code for your Dad's video game and I've made a version I think you might like better." He puts the thumb drive into a laptop in front of Pierce. We cut to the laptop screen, where we see Pierce's avatar on a front lawn with the giant floating head of Cornelius. Every time Pierce presses the space bar, his avatar throws a baseball to his father's head, which gives him a thousand points and a "great job, son!" Pierce presses the space bar a few times, pauses, then leans over and embraces Abed and we fade to black. When Adam Countee pitched that tag, tears instantly rolled down my cheeks, and in point of fact, my eyes are getting watery describing it to you. It was the most important part of the episode and possibly one of the most important moments of the season. I was very upset to hear that it wasn't shot because someone didn't feel like shooting it, especially since it was literally the last day of shooting, which meant we'd never be able to pick it up. I regret nothing about how upset I got. My job was to care about my show.

Rewatched seson 3 for a second time and I must say this scene gets me laughing every time.



Also does anyone know anywhere online where I can pick up a 'Troy and Abed in the Morning' mug. Id love to have one but the shipping prices from the US is ridiculous on the official shop site.
 
Love this show, started watching it last night and have watch 8 episodes, including 3 during my free lessons at school. All the characters are so good to watch and hilerious (besides Shirley and Duncanson).

Addicted now, will hopefully marathon through 3 seasons in under a week or 2.
 
I'm assuming a Japanese version of this guy?

Correct me if Im wrong but I dont think Duncan makes an appearance in season 3

He does not. Dan Harmon failed to explain why in his AMA on Reddit a few weeks ago, too.

I hope season 4 is at least this good:





:cool:

I believe it was mainly due to schedule problems. John Oliver writes for The Daily Show, so I'd imagine he's fairly busy

Changed my username in dedication to one of my favourite shows :D

Was about to comment saying: "Kickpuncher is a movie, the TV show is 'Inspector Spacetime'" then I realized your referring to Community in general.. :oops:

Also cue someone's username change to "Inspector Spacetime" :p

Wish I can afford to change my username..
