Quick Take: Community, "Beginner Pottery"
"This class is like a redhead who drinks scotch and watches Die Hard" – Jeff
Review: Community, "Beginner Pottery"
(S0119) First, anything with Tony Hale (he of Arrested Development and other fame) gets automatically more rad. And in this episode of Community, Hale wearing that bizarro new age-hippie-artiste-Indian smock as the pottery instructor in the "blow off class" of the week takes things to new levels straight off.
We return to the theme of Jeff (Joel McHale) not dealing well with not being the instant "cool guy" in the room. The pottery class has golden boy Rich, who pretends to be a beginner according to Jeff, stunning everyone with his pottery mastery to the point that Hale utters breathlessly, "I want to kiss you on the mouth."
Meanwhile, most of the gang has followed Pierce (Chevy Chase) into a yachting class that has its moments but doesn't showcase Community at its wise cracking, ironic, pop culture drenched best. However, the "rescue scene" to bail Pierce out from drowning in the parking lot is fairly epic.
