The thing is I might be too harsh on the latest season of Community. The network did what they did and these writers who aren't Dan Harmon are trying their... best? See, I can't even say that because the main reason the network canned Harmon (aside from the Chevy Chase issues) was that he always fought for his "vision" and rarely compromised. The first three seasons are all Harmon's baby. It's only this fourth (ongoing) that has the newbies. And they are trying, but they don't have his passion.
So they've just pretty much given fanservice. I'm not saying that has no value as I love the characters and appreciate the new showrunners are trying to please and sometimes they still give moments of brilliance. But I miss Dan Harmon and how he didn't worry about fan reaction and just gave us the crazy workings of this world he created.
That being said, WATCH THIS SHOW. I've watched most episodes three and four times and still find something fresh in each. It's very well-crafted and meticulous and treats its audience like they have a brain.
Even this (final?) season is worth watching. Not as much as the first three seasons, but it's still good at times.
