Community- The GIJoe parody was awesome. And really freaking accurate! I mean, since it was drawn in the vein of GIJoe and wasn't using original footage with their stuff inserted in, I applaud them for getting the details right- the uniforms, the vehicles. They didn't do any shortcuts and just draw vehicles that look like they were from GIJoe, they drew the actual ones. The Cobras were flying trouble bubbles, rattlers, night ravens, firebats, the opening battle even had them in hurricanes. The fact that they not only drew the real things, but they actually had variety to me shows dedication to the parody.
Like the intro:
They manage to do a really good pastiche of several of the intros throughout the cartoon's history.
And that is why to me Community, is hands down a way better geek show than friggin BBT. Big Bang Theory, they make fun of nerds and geeks. Its all, "here's this nerdy thing, let's have a silly conversation about it where we act real nerdy!" Its basically, "Ha, look at what nerds these nerds are!" Community on the other had, makes clever references to geek stuff without poking fun at it.
OUAT: Wonderland- Oh, thank goodness! With them being canceled, I was worried we'd end on some unresolved cliffhanger. Though I suppose with OUAT existing, they could always wrap things up there, like X-Files did with both Millenium and the Lone Gunmen. I hear PLL is going to do that with Ravenswood.
But I digress, I suppose they knew the writing was on the wall, so they got to resolve the series nice and neat. ( spoiler cut )
Suits- Hmm, so Mike's chose his lot. ( spoiler cut )
