I dont even understand how you can watch this show and not think its AMAZING! The writing is terrific, combined with excellent delivery. If you're not the type of person that could watch the office(seasons1-3) and laugh, then you're probably not right for this show either. It is made up of very intelligent and witty dialogue. This isnt the show for you if you watch for fart jokes or physical comedy. I watch this and have to pause it just to absorb how funny the show is before i can keep watching because sooo many things are funny. I just wish more people could see what i see, i REALLY hope they dont anel this, i might have to give up hope on television if they do.moreless

I missed an episode in between, but it seems things are staying about the same.

Annie is freaked as she has never seen a man's private parts so she gets Britta and Shirley to break into the Principal's office to practice on the life size anatomically correct mannequin there. Annie did such a great job arranging the program she gets the "honor" of doing the demonstration. Of course they get caught and funny things ensue.

Jeff is in a dating drought which comes to everyone's attention when he gets suckered into a double date with Pierce and his escort girlfriend for the STD shindig. He finally talks a girl into coming with him and it's a disaster as he realizes he has no interest in her even though she's attractive. Uh oh, he's maturing! Oh, and his financial problems seem to have disappeared as well!

Abed is showing Troy up at every game he challenges him too proving that Abed, not Troy is the best athlete at Greendale. Unfortunately when the Principal sends Abed to announce not to use the condoms because they all leak he tells everyone not to use condoms tonight over the loud speaker!

A mildly funny episode with some funny bits. A lot of other shows come to mind now for me when I think of this show. I'm not sure which it really is like, but one of these days I'll waste enough time to figure it out and I'll let you know. Thanks for reading...moreless

  Annie: You know what... I don't want to express myself. I don't want to sit in a room full of people and say... the 'P' word. I like being repressed. I am totally comfortable being uncomfortable with my sexuality. And maybe, just maybe, if everyone were a little bit more like me, we wouldn't have to have an STD fair.
