Pillows and Blankets

Community deals with concepts which are well designed which creates unique story lines. In this documentary style episode it gives the writers to make a funny yet adds complexity to Troy and Abed's relationship.

This episode's hilarious use of a documentary format really stands out in a season that is chalk full of memorable episodes. This episode was made at a time when Community was way over budget and yet very creatively ambitious. It uses these budgetary restrictions to its advantage, giving it almost a bottle episode feel.

I give this episode a 10/10. Not because I think it is objectively perfect, that's just how much I love it personally. Go watch it! That's all I can say.

I like the series and loved the paintball episodes. This time, they have a good concept, but it just fall short - just not funny. Troy and Abed for some reason evolved into characters who were goofy best friends and then somehow are not able to navigate a dispute and turn into enemies. Subplots about Jeff and Annie and Britta's bad photography are the only saving grace of this episode. Overall it was something that I wish the writers would have read and then gone back to the drawing board to refine. I thought this episode was just a big swing and a miss. Based on the overall score this episode has been given, it appears my sentiment is in the minority. So be it, it just was not for me.
