Snowman Chang was great.
Troy and Abed in the Morning at the end was hilarious as well. Considering the rest of the episode, the head switching gave me a good laugh.
ETA - Watching the closing credits the second time 'round, I wonder how much assistance Dino Stamatopoulos provided to this episode, given his 'Morel Orel' work.

Well, the opening credits included a cowriter credit for the episode, so probably quite a bit. ;-)

And be careful with the gimmick episodes...they killed "The Drew Carey Show". :) | SchippeWreck

What I'd love to see is the episode from the perspective of everyone outside of the delusion. Basically, a live action version taking place in the study room. It would make a great DVD extra, but I doubt they'd commit to doing it.

I changed my Facebook status to "Music and cookies and liquor and trees, that's what Christmas is for. Aaaaaand, Christmas Pterodactyl!" and a bunch of people "liked" it but almost none of those chumps will actually watch Community no matter how hard I shill it. Sadness. | Tenken347

| #7 Posted on 11.12.10 1117.39 | Instant Rating: 5.03 | | I think I've mentioned this before, but I actually teach at a tiny college with two 4-year degree programs, so all of Community's institutional humor really hits home for me. My favorite part of the episode was Duncan saying, "I've been a teacher here for many years, and I think I see a solution to this problem, which coincidentally may help you as well." | Wpob

| #8 Posted on 11.12.10 1538.02 | Instant Rating: 4.87 | I thougt this was a stellar show - both in humor and emotion. I loved Professor Duncan yellong at Abed fromt eh train "At least takes notes!" I also like the nice touch when Shirley grabbed the minora (sp).
I don;t think I have liked a show this much as far as I can remember. And I KNOW I have not liked Chevy Chase this much in a long, long, long time.
Life is hilariously cruel.
