I thought they were being ironic doing episodes for Halloween and Thanksgiving in March.
This season was meant to come out October last year but it was pushed back to February this yeat instead. Had it aired when it was originally meant to the holiday episodes would have lined up.

Oh that's a shame. But it makes things even worse as it means the episodes weren't even done to be ironic, but were serious.
Not sure if my expectations were too high, but it doesn't have the same feel as it used too.
I think it's safe to say that Community will get this season and finish. I think most hardcore Community fans will just ignore this season and pretend it finished with Season 3.
I don't know if you can call Community dead, the ratings have been doing pretty well, funnily enough. Maybe people have actually heard of it now and that's the reason?
I agree that the latest episode was lackluster but I did enjoy the last episode.
I know the quality has been affected by Dan's departure, and the departure of some of the writers, but it is also in its fourth season and shows do tend to go downhill in quality when they've been on that long.
I think that happened in the third season, even if there were a few standout episodes. I'll always love the first and second seasons the best.
Has anyone been keeping up with Community this season? I kind of lost interest after the Halloween episode and haven't watched any more - but I do intend to download the lot once the season is over.
I've read a few mixed reviews. One saying that the show is still funny but that it has, as we all feared, become a lot broader and closer to a traditional sit-com. Well if it does decide to seek a future as another 'big bang theory' then I wish it and the cast well, however I won't be watching.
Some good news concerning the upcoming 5th season. Show creator Dan Harmon is returning. It's pretty much a done deal - just some minor hashing out to do. Writer Chris McKenna is also returning next season.

Yes that is good news. Hopefully he can put the spark back in the show it lost last season.
Excellent news.
I've got round to watching most of season 4 now and it's better than what I was expecting. It's treading water a little and the referencing isn't anywhere near a subtle as it used to be but it's still watchable. I think it's just a case that after the first 3 seasons our expectations are so high that coming back down to 'ok' was a big drop.

I didn't laugh once. It seems to be too self conscious and trying to be.
I don't think I've laughed once this series. It's been so bad. They've all become caricatures of themselves.
Was it made last year and not aired?

Nah, the show does feel different this year, which is a shame because it's not likely to be renewed.
It's Pining for the Fjords.
Sadly, yes!

And having Jeff deliver a moral at the end of every ep is incredibly annoying.
Saying that, I did enjoy the body swap episode. The break up felt natural, and Donald Glover did a brilliant 'Abed'.
It hasn't been bad, but just not Laugh out Loud funny. I liked the Superheros Origins one.
Today is the first time I read an article saying Dan Harmon was fired. I feel like just about the stupidest person in the world.:o
They are all about the same I'm afraid.
