    This is probably the best, most creative comedy on television right now.  I don’t think I’ve ever been moved to be so bummed or elated over a tv show as when i heard it was being cancelled and then re-aired.  Modern Warfare, Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas and Advanced Dungeons and Dragons are some of the best tv in years and years on their own- for my money anyway.  Love this show, and even it’s lesser episodes are far better than the majority of “entertainment” on the tube.  Can anyone say fanboy??
