Community


I'm not sure that there is a funnier show on TV than Community. Every week this comedy delivers the laughs and makes us care about the characters.

This week was no different as we saw Pierce (Chevy Chase) invite his daughter to family day at the college, only it turns out she is just his step-daughter from a marriage long over and she doesn't really like him. Pierce enlists the aid of Jeff (Joel McHale) to talk him up and tell his daughter what a great guy he is but Jeff just ends up sleeping with her but not before he finds out that she is grifting 25 thousand dollars from Pierce.

In the end there is a tender moment as Jeff breaks the news to Pierce and Jeff makes the case that Pierce is lucky because he has such great friends at school although if you consider the people you go to community college with as your family you probably have made some mistakes in your life! This show always finds a way to balance laughter with some pretty emotional moments that really draw you in to the character's lives and it delivered again with this episode.
