The last few shows have been really good, I think, and they keep up the quality Halloween episode tradition. The opening 'is there no limit to what he [Stanley] won't notice?' was great. The costumes were:
-Danny (nothing) -Ryan (80s ?) -Kelley (first ? then ? ) -Ocsar (first ? then 'rational consumer') -Meredith (?)
Winner: Oscar, who ended up wanting the coupon book after spending some time diminishing its value. My vote: Angela (see below) Hottest: Angela. Wow, sexy nurse Angela. Did not see that coming. Runner up: Erin. Freaky mask, same bod. Same hot bod.
Darrell showing some leadership and dropping some hints about long-term plans. Being groomed? Also showed restraint in not knocking Michael out. Nice touch with Jim giving in to the Popeye gig at the end. Also Sweet Pea.
I think Ryan was supposed to be Justin Bieber. I'm pretty sure there was a throwaway line of dialogue referencing that.
Everything Kevin said was awesome, especially when he started crying because Michael yelled at him. "[Bleep!] you, Gabe!"
"I present to you "the Rational Consumer", as it were."
"Why don't witches wear panties? So they can grip the broom." That has to be the bluest joke I've ever heard on an NBC sitcom. Bill Cosby would lose his shit if he heard that.

"Best Edward James Olmos costume I've ever seen. Like, freaky good."
You know - sure, this show has lost a few steps, but I still really enjoy it.
Oh, and I was waiting for Gabe to belt out at least ONE verse from Ziggy Stardust. I like this season. A lot.
EDIT: Oh, and when Community starts with the Dean also wearing (nearly) the same Lady Gaga outfit as Gabe and cracking (nearly) the same joke... that's pretty brilliant.
Didn't see the episode (haven't been able to watch much this year). But I did see the pics of Angela dressed as a sexy nurse. To quote the immortal George Takei: "Oh, my."

The immortal George Takei did voice over narration at the start and the end of this week's Community.
"How many vampires am I supposed to care about? " Stanley, as usual gets a zinger without really drawing attention to it.
I am wondering what direction they are going to explain Michael's departure. Seems like they planted a seed for Darrell to take over, plus Holly is supposed to be back this season as well. I think getting away from building around Michael being an idiot every week and fleshing out everybody else, as they seem to be doing, is the way to go.
They've also planted seeds for Pam or Andy to become the new boss too, so I wonder if this is just the writers having fun with us or if they're covering their own asses by giving several characters a potential 'in' to become regional manager. I guess I'd prefer to see an in-house promotion unless the new boss is really spectacular (i.e. Ricky Gervais somehow), but I'm still of the mind that the series would be better off ending without Carell.
I was surprised at the turnout at the FEC. I had trouble finding parking at the metro so I didn't get down there until 10:30ish and there were about 100-150 people down there. The crowd was so big around the podium that we shut down the sidewalk.
