Community: Abed and Troy

Community is a new comedy on NBC this fall. Notable stars in the show include: Chevy Chase, Joel McHale known for hosting E!'s "The Soup;" Ken Jeong, also known as Dr. Ken, the doctor-turned comedian who has been seen in movies such as The Hangover, Knocked Up and Role Models. Jeff Winger (McHale) is a lawyer with a void education whose being forced to attend community college. The show takes place at Greendale Community College where the faculty and students are nothing short of eccentric, all with their own quirks. Jeff starts a study group in the library for spanish class that he as with all the main characters in order to get closer to a pretty blonde named Britta, played by Gillian Jacobs. Jeff tries every trick he has up his sleeve to pursue Britta, but Britta puts a stop to all his advances. The show centers around the interactions between those in the study group.

The best part of the show however is the last 40 seconds. While the credits role at the end of most of the episodes, the camera roles on Troy, the highschool football star and Abed, the quirkiest of the group. In one episode they came up with a rap in spanish, and in another they make fun of people they think can't hear them.
