Review: COMMUNITY season 2, episode 5 “Messianic Myths and Ancient Peoples”

Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown), Abed (Danny Pudi) and Pierce (Chevy Chase) are at the center of this week’s episode. I love how each member of the cast is given the opportunity to be in the spotlight. It shows it isn’t all about Jeff (Joel McHale) and it gives the rest of the cast a chance to shine.

After hearing how popular online videos are compared to her church attendance figures, Shirley asks Abed to help her make a religious film. Things don’t go exactly to plan and Abed makes his own film. It amazes me how popular his film becomes while it’s still being shot. Posters are around college and people are watching in amazement while the camera rolls. His reputation alone excites even Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) as he watches the filming when he’s supposed to be shutting it down due to Shirley’s complaint. Abed’s look, for the film, reminds me of an illusionist with long hair and leather pants.
