With Community (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihtpZY-OpKM) being released in it's entirety on Netflix and Hulu (including the hard to find Season 6 from Yahoo), now is the perfect time to give the series a chance! Whether it's your first viewing, or your 10th rewatch, there are so many wonderful things to appreciate about this show!

And while I'm sure there are a fair amount of people who still enjoyed Season 4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNgbLQEZBmI) - I think I fall in the majority, when I say it was simply a weak season. It is missing so much about what worked before AND after it.

So please, join me for this exploration of the behind-the-scenes turmoil that affected the season, the resulting lackluster comedy, and the ways in which Season 5 and 6 completely turn that around!

There is a reason (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_V_X5wWSkY) Season 4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76K5xYstxVo) has become know as "the gas leak year" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zX8UR5W-iDw). I mean, other that the quotable meme-y-ness of it...

The loss of Chevy Chase / Pierce Hawthorn was always going to affect the show, but combined with Dan Harmon's removal, and all the wheels started to fall off the ship.
