Its a cool show with a fun premise, but it often feels like it has all been made up on the spot and that even though the show says the stakes are high, the viewer doesnt believe anything will actually happen.

It also has this weird vibe i got from Community that the characters are often different depending on whatever is good for the plot. It feels more like a cartoon than a live action show.

Anyway, i honestly think it would have been a better movie. They just stretch things on for so long, create a problem, and then say well actually and the cycle begins again.

The main plot is not the point.

If youre gonna say its how the characters reflect on themselves and grow as people, they do it and then the plot changes and they have to do it again

In fact, I'm glad the show knew when to end before it overstayed itself.

It had a perfectly paced run.

I feel like you can only say that about the 2nd season. 1, 3, and 4 all kept me engaged. 2 suffered from continuing the same jokes.

I thought it was a perfect length tbh.

They could've milked the initial premise and had a decent 7-8 season sitcom but the show continued to evolve and kept things moving at an interesting pace and then ended after they achieved everything they had initially wanted.

I checked out after the episode with the bar fight. For me, it had overstayed its welcome.

Yeah, it had a strong start then steadily went down hill.

I wouldn't say that at all. I feel like a good chunk of the plot lines used, if made by a different creative team, probably would've been stretched out to last multiple seasons (or at least one full season), whereas they kept changing things up and keeping the show fresh.

The comedy does get increasingly more silly and lazy, just like the other shows by the same guy (Parks and Rec, Brooklyn 99).

53 episodes was too long for a completed network show?

Show was near perfect.
