A lot of shows keep the pilot as the first episode, which I often skip in rewatches because pilots seldom feel like the later show. What's your fave Seinfeld episode? Mine might be either the Serenity Now one or the Festivus one (I guess I like Frank Costanza a lot :)
Community has the same feel.
Mhm. And looking at the cast in the Pilot versus 2nd episode (Spanish 101, where Señor Chang makes his debut), it makes me think the decision-makers decided they needed another exciting character after the pilot and added Chang then
For that kind of show a foil or antagonist is required.
That is such a good point that thinking about it now I'm surprised they didn't see that need prior to the pilot. As far as liking actors goes, I fell in love with Ken Jeong from that role
“Gaaaaaaaaay!”
