Pretty much. Abed and Troy are the lesser evils. Most modern comedies feature characters who are horrible people

depends on your definition of "terrible". not everyone is perfect and that show accentuates their flaws for comedic affect.

This. Jeff is really the only terrible person and like half the show is about addressing that.

Well, Pierce also becomes a terrible person later on, but he's just sort of an addled old slightly racist dude in the early times.

No, he's not. He's just bad at expressing emotion.

IIRC the line is 'we try not to sexualize her,' implying that it's merely a moral idealism that doesn't translate to reality; Alison Brie is impossible not to sexualize.

Yes, he is, and there was an entire episode that dealt with it. He does whatever he wants regardless of how it affects other people and rarely shows empathy. As long as he gets what he wants he does not care about how it affects other people.

Not really anything. He's just an easy punching bag because he's very vocal and open about his life and got fired from Community because he became over-worked and stressed out. He's actualy an extremely insightful and self-critical person who tries a lot to improve himself. He has plenty of short-comings but anyone who thinks he's a shitty person honestly knows very little about him aside from tabloid headlines.

Abed definitely went through a heel phase...season 3 I believe.

Shirley's not that bad of a person. She's flawed, but not terrible. Pierce I would say is the one farthest from a good person.

She's a bad person because all her "selflessness" isn't because she's a selfless person, but because she believes acting selfless will get her into heaven.

Pierce was always a horrible person, he was ignorant and bigoted from the start

Around the time the show started transitioning from quirky college comedy sitcom to zany manchild's fantasy world mid-S2 or so (not that I'm ripping on it, I liked both phases of the show equally), Pierce, Britta, Chang and arguably Shirley got so terribly flanderized that I actually don't mind using that ridiculous terminology in this case.

Yeah Pierce early on was more innocently racist, like some of our grandparents. After a while he just became more and more spiteful.
