The Peeps Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Season 1 and 2 are brilliant and I wouldn't change a thing... season 3 is really mixed for me. It felt a bit off from the start but saved itself with a few amazing episodes. Now with all the news about season 4 (Dan Harman not being involved and now Chevy Chase not returning), I just can't see it being as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 My negativity mostly stems from just being a negative person in general Dan Harmon being ousted due to his public feud with Chevy Chase. It's just hard to imagine the show without him. It'd be like Joss Whedon being forced to leave Buffy the Vampire Slayer because he didn't get along with Alyson Hannigan, and then she'd leave half a season later anyway. They should have just let it end with its dignity intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Re-reading through this thread (although skipping spoilers) it's bizarre to read how quickly this show went bad. The first half is nothing but good things being said, then instantly a switch it flicked, and everyone saying, they shouldn't bother making a new series. I'd say it has nothing to do with the shows quality about why people are saying there shouldn't be a season 4. For me it comes down to the Harmon the showrunner being dumped. The finale of 3 was almost positioned as a last ever episode and for it should have been if we are going to get a stifled version of the show.

I don't like the way the change in showrunner(s) went down but I'm willing to give it a chance. The promo gave me some hope: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Peeps Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Oh I thought someone said Chevy was only in the finale? I want to believe it will be good... but if I go in with low expectations anyway, I won't be disappointed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 He is in all episodes but two. They have already filmed the finale (they're filming out of order) so presumably he will be missing from the two episodes before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is fine as there are plenty of other episodes and chunks of episodes he has been missing from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I feel like there have been episodes without him, but IMDB disagrees with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 They should just recast his character with a female actor and never make any mention of the obvious gender change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There we definitely episodes he was missing from....when he went insane and they made him "bad" he wasn't in a couple of episodes afterwards.

Magnus Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Well, clearly I care about this too much, but I just went through every single episode, and he's definitely in all of them. Myth busted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolFunkMan Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I watched a few episodes of this show quite a while back, and really enjoyed it. I actually completely forgot about it, so I'm glad this thread reminded me. Thanks guys. Just watched the Paintball episode. Best one so far! I remember that episode, it was epic! Out of the few I watched, it was definitely a highlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Well, I guess now we know who can replace Chevy Chase if there's a season 5! I thought this was an okay episode. Not as great/terrible as I was hoping and/or expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnus Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Yeah, I only posted because it was the season premiere, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 The game episode was my favourite one. I also loved the paintball ones too. This episode was okay, it wasn't it's best but it was good enough. The Hunger Deans made me laugh though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Amazing how many people online are saying "you can really tell Dan Harmon has left, it's much worse!" If you didn't know, would you spot it? Wasn't the greatest episode, but season openers seldom are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not watched the latest ep yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
