6/10
Pilot
23 November 2019
Created by Dan Harmon, the pilot was brought to life by the Russo brothers as directors.

Community is an ensemble piece set in a community college with various misfits and that includes the Dean of the college.

The lead is Jeff Winger (Joel McHale.) A lawyer whose licence has been revoked as his law degree was from Columbia. The country not the university and the certificate was an attachment in an email.

Jeff has to attend community college to get his degree, he hopes to get it this time by cheating as he knows the professor. When he sees student Britta he forms a study group to be close to her but she turns up with a disparate group.

The pilot has to set up the sitcom and establish the characters which really happens late on when the study group is convened. Jeff though has some sharp lines and he establishes a rapport with old friend Professor Ian Duncan (John Oliver.)
