Community, Season 4, Episode 12: “Heroic Origins”
Written by Steve Basilone & Annie Mebane & Maggie Bandur
Directed by Victor Nelli, Jr.
Airs Thursdays at 8pm Et on NBC
Let’s tell the origin story of this Community review. In the cold open, when Britta compared their interlocking origins to “the classic French film trilogy Bleu, Blanc, Rouge,” and Abed responds with “No. Like something more accessible, like Unbreakable,” I wrote it down in my notes. This would be the key to this week’s review, and a perfect metaphor for the season. A show that once aspired for meaning through art reduced to something that is fun but ultimately facile. Then I woke up this morning and realized Todd VanDerWerff, using the “movies” vs. “cinema” dichotomy established in Steven Soderbergh’s “State of the Cinema” address as a framework, beat me to the punch.

Ladies and gents, it’s finally “October 19,” and Community is back on the air tonight. In honor of the new season, the cast and crew took to Reddit last night and this morning in an “Ask Me Anything” (Ama) chat that unearthed some secrets from the set.
1. NBC initially halted production on the the “Dungeons & Dragons” episode.
“Thankfully, Dan rejected their rejection,” Community writer Megan Ganz explained.
2. There is a sex tape!
Ganz said is always surprised that fans find the easter eggs so fast. But running jokes, like the Beetlejuice gag, are favorites of fans and the writers alike.
