Hey All!
I don't know how many of you watch the show COMMUNITY, But it's an amazingly funny show on NBC! It's about a bunch of wacky people that are attending community college. This Thursday they are doing a special episode for Christmas in STOP MOTION called ABED'S UNCONTROLLABLE
CHRISTMAS! I had the privilege of previewing this episode and I have to say I never knew stop motion could make me laugh and feel so moved all at the same time.
The shows stop motion animation is fantastic! I'm a huge fan of the stop motion, so when I heard about this episode being in stop motion I was very much looking forward to seeing it, so I was thrilled to have the opportunity to see it in advance.
The story revolves around the character Abed (Danny Pudi) who trying to find the meaning of Christmas. The meaning of Christmas is lost to him one morning when he realizes he's woken up as a stop-motion character. His group of misfit friends at the college think he's crazy.
Abed's intense fixation on finding the meaning of Christmas concerns the group to the point that they try to seek therapy for him.
Abed takes him seeing himself and the group in stop-motion as a sign that he and the group must re-discover the meaning of Christmas. He sees the group and everything that surrounds him
Meanwhile, Jeff (Joel McHale) who is turned into Jeff in the Box in Abed's imaginary Christmas world just wants it to all be over so he can go back to sleeping around with women.
And Britta (Gillian Jacobs) is turned into a Britta Bot! And he main concern is getting Abed therapy.
Chevy Chase's character becomes a little stuffed bear that is so funny and adorable. That's the only time you will probably ever hear anyone say that Chevy Chase is an adorable stuffed bear! Every person around Abed is like some kind of Misfit toy in his Christmas wonderland fantasy.
The group is extremely concerned about Abed's mental health and they enlist the help of Professor Duncan (John Oliver), who tries to break him of his so called stop motion delusion. The group undergoes hypnosis to explore Abed's winter wonderland and soon unravel the truth behind Abed’s madness. Chevy Chase, Yvette Nicole Brown, Donald Glover, and Ken Jeong also star in this jam packed show.
The reason why Abed is having this Christmas clay-mation dilution aka search for the meaning of Christmas is quite touching and the musical numbers and music are quite good.
I won't give away all the details of this fun episode, but this show was done so well and is so funny and great to watch for the Holidays! DON'T MISS IT! I highly recommend this Christmas episode for the Holidays! It's a MUST SEE!
Again this amazing episode of COMMUNITY airs Thursday (12/9) at 8 pm EST/ 7pm CST on NBC. I promise you will love this episode too!
