Comic-Con Panel Quick Review: Community

Community is one of my favorite shows on TV right now, so you better believe I was going to attend the panel at Comic-Con this year (I missed it last year). The cast was greeted to a thunderous applause as they came out on the stage. Joel Mchale, Donald Glover, Danny Pudi, Yvette Nicole Brown, Chevy Chase, Ken Jeong, Gillian Jacobs, and Jim Rash made up the cast part of the panel. Alison Brie was away filming a movie, but kept a presence through twitter. Dan Harmon and some of the writers filled out the rest of the panel.

You could tell from the rapport of the cast that they get along and truly enjoy the show. When asked about their favorite moments of the season they all brought up special moments from other cast members and then their own.

My brother was the second person to ask a question in the Q&A portion. After introducing himself he said he was asking this question for his sister, Jenny, who get embarrassed easily. The cast then said that I shouldn't be afraid and said hi. Luckily, I was seated in the back, but it was kind of neat (and my question was awesome!).

Some things we learned about next season during the panel:

• Troy and Abed will be roommates this season.
• Michael Kenneth Williams, from The Wire, will join as a professor at Greendale.
• Jim Rash, who plays the fabulously funny Dean Pelton, will become a series regular for the next season.
• Next year they will deal with Jeff, and the rest of the study group, graduating.  Dan Harmon said that it would be weird if he didn't and he wanted to respect the fans.

Dan also mentioned that he really wants the show to get an emmy... don't we all.  It really was a fun panel and got me excited for the next season to start.

Here are some pictures from the panel

Twitter hash tags we were encouraged to use:

Using the second one they gave season 2 DVDs to a few audience members.
