The "Seven People's Walk" on the University Campus

This year's NBC will launch a brand new sitcom "Community", which tells the story of seven "students" from all over the world, with different cultural backgrounds, conflicting religious beliefs, and unique personalities at Greendale Community College. A series of lively delights on themes of friendship, education, love, life and more. As the name suggests, the play is "community college", similar to domestic TV University, Yeda University, Adult Education, etc. However, the powerful and talented subtitle group named it "Waste Firewood Alliance". Personally, I don't think there is any disrespect in it. Instead, it is ridiculed. The tone is precisely positioned for it, adding humor and fun.

Because community colleges have a low threshold and a rich source of students, they do not consider political status, admission scores, or family background. Therefore, they gather together such as the old and strong retired grandfather Pierce, who pays attention to family, often gossip and gossip. Shirley, a divorced black aunt, Jeff, an unlicensed lawyer who fakes a degree, is a eloquent lawyer, Britta, a blond struggling girl who realizes she is wasting her years, Troy, a high school repeater who loves to play, has sports expertise, and is sensitive and cute because of drugs. The school dropout girl Annie and the neurotic Pakistani Abed and other "weird people".

Such a group of "rubbish" with complex social backgrounds, huge age spans, and lack of personality intersection, went to the community college for a diploma, and sat around the study room for a Spanish course. And this scene of doing business without doing business and putting on a long door always reminds me of "Friends" in Central Perk Cafe. Although the character settings are different, the main line of friendship is the same (a timeless topic), and the relationship between the characters is similar (the old man Pierce likes to tell bad jokes; the gossip mother Shirley regards everyone as his own children; Hua Hua The son Jeff likes the beautiful Britta and deliberately gets close, but the latter falls in love with others; the silly big sister Annie is easy-going and helpful; the freak Abed and the poor-knowledge former football team main player Troy is often tired of being together, the former thinks strangely and acts unreasonably) .

Although it will inevitably leave traces of imitating its predecessors, "Waste Wood Alliance" is different from the previous dramas and becomes a bright spot than the integration of the theme of education; compared with the previous youthful and invincible high school life dramas, its special feature is that It is aimed at adults, which creates a broad development space for the arrangement of the plot, and also provides a variety of inventory materials for the selection of supporting roles. Mr. Chen (note: this person is not qualified as a professor) is undoubtedly the most notable of them all. The only Spanish teacher in the whole school, who is entangled in Chinese descent but teaches foreign languages. Due to the uncoordinated marriage and life, the mood swings are extremely large, and he is frantic and frantic. He is often in a dilemma, leaving students at a loss. In addition, the headmaster with endless ideas is also inspiring. Can't help laughing.

"Waste Wood League" continues according to the progress of one semester and one season. NBC has renewed the broadcast for the whole season, but the decline in the ratings has made me a fan of friends not very optimistic. I only hope that the students in community colleges can persevere to the moment of witnessing graduation.

    A drama with super funny dialogues, very clever, and the episodes that spoof "Goodfellas" and a number of noir movies are particularly exciting! !
