"First Vaughn, then Jeff, i better not smile at that wall outlet or you'll fry your tongue off" Had completely forgotten that savage diss against Annie.
Gillian looks exactly like a woman her age, the thing is that she looked much older when the series started, so it seems to you that she doesn't age. And with Allison it was exactly the opposite, she looked younger; but currently both look good, and look their age, period.
I like how Britta has this image of coolness she have created in season 1 but it quickly came to shambles as an act she was giving to world, people say she lacks depth but this is the depth we were talking about in her character, she then becomes self aware of her charade and later tries to grow more while still having bits of her pro anti belief, that really is realistic as a human being.
The pilot is genius, you get this impression of Troy and Britta being these stereotypes. Troy the too cool for school brash jock, who opens up his more creative and imaginative side with Abed. And Britta. She's set up to be the hot sassy love interest of Jeff that's going to play too hard to get. But ends up as a down on her luck, social justice warrior, still getting with the program slowly
I feel like there's someone for everyone to latch onto, that the characters (for the most part) do show show a lot of diversity and variety in backgrounds and personality. Both Britta and Abed ive found to be the most relatable, but of course, which characters you relate to change based on your personality of course
Well put! I'm also in the minority of fans that like her change. Not simply because it's hilarious (she sometimes plays the role of Pierce, which is hilarious), but because she's so real. Many of the other characters (like Annie) evolve so much that their quirks shed all of the cons they had before. But Britta remains a flawed individual even as she grows. In real life, rarely do we flawed individuals change so much that you might call us "fixed". We retain our peccadilloes even through growth.
@@user-ck9lm6xi1o Agreed! For me I found Britta to actually be the most relatable character in the show. She allowed herself to be vulnerable and stand up for herself and I respected that even if she didn't always have the conviction to follow through. Britta always means well and pretends that she has all the answers (as we all do at times) but is honest and reflective enough with herself to acknowledge that she doesn't really know what she's doing. Also, just because a period of time has gone past doesn't mean that you have to dramatically change. Sometimes in life you try to change and improve but all you end up doing is amplifying your existing qualities and flaws and that's okay. Maybe you've not changed, you've just used that time to understand who you are a bit more. Anyway, she's the realest character that there is and I love her.
if the writers didnt make troy abed's sidekick 98% of the time and gave troy and britta more screen time im sure they would actually be a good couple. they're both dorky and sometimes downright stupid but trying to show a more "mature" persona (troy less than britta but there are various episodes of him trying to make people see him as an adult)
I'm a pro photographer and once had the change to have my portfolio revised by a very famous and "talented" Female cuban photographer and the single suggestion she gave to my entire catalogue was to make all my color photos black and white so they are more interesting. I fucking shit you not. And if you see her website and museum exhibitions it's all black and white photos of pure steaming garbage and supposedly abstract shit. I felt so fucking mad at her and the fucking stupid art system that is filled with people that know a rich guy and that's why they are famous while true artists with no money or influent people die poor and alone. Fucking retards.
@@TheGoodContent37 I get you mate, my friend said the same to me when I was shooting black and white at one of our photo walks. In the beginning you think everything looks cool but it really isn't.
Britta, like Community, was streets ahead. She’s an underrated gem within an underrated gem, it’s no wonder Dan said that “Britta was a work of art. She was a post post feminist masterpiece and a televised work of art.”
Morgana's Sleeping Pillow that’s why they never actually ended up together. IRL, I would’ve been more weirded out by the pairing, but I enjoyed the chemistry between Jeff and Annie within the show.
@James Cooper I get that but upon second viewing Britta has been on the most bullshit since the start. Even more than Jeff, and she needed some comeuppance and growth.
I adore Britta. She has her heart in the right place and is so full of passion, she is just very bad at it lol. But she is always there for her friends
"as a psychologist" "student" "I hereby offer my licensed" "unlicensed" "services as a grief counsellor" "grief causer" "If anyone wants to talk, the doctor" "not even close" "is in." I WAS IN SHAMBLES!
She is truly underestimated as a comedian. I love her as an actress, but her comedic timing and physical comedy borders on genius. Not to mention she has a hypnotic set of eyes and smile.
I think that that is more of good writing and good directing than her own genius. I saw her on Harmon Quest; she seems like an awkward, weird person in real life.
@@88michaelandersen'Love', my friend. She is amazing in it and it shows what an amazing actress she is and how Community underutilized her. If anything Community flanderised Britta... I say that as a Britta fan. The show did Britta dirty so many times. Harmon admitted as much a number of times.
@@TheTardisDreamer interesting, I didn't know Harmon acknowledged that. Could you tell me an interview where he did that? I'm not doubting you, I'm genuinely curious
@@GeeGe. Honestly, I was such a big fan that I watched or listened to a crazy number of interviews over the years. It was one of his commentaries I'm pretty sure. I can't remember which one off the top of my head. He rambles a LOT in commentaries. I just remember him talking several times about the issues they had writing Britta's and Shirley's respective arcs and big regrets he had with both of their writing. But if I find it I'll let you know.
People who complain about Britta changing don't seem to realize that Troy was a machismo jock and Annie was an uptight prude. Characters change and Britta changed for the better. The 3 of them were stereotypes with depth gradually added to them for growth and comedic value
I think the issue with Britta is that to a lot of people they changed their favourite part of Britta - her intellect. Britta was the only real foil to Jeff, before that became Annie in later seasons.
@@misombra Britta was the straight man in the group. She only had "depth" in the first 5 episodes of the show. Once the show found it's footing as a weird pop culture reference machine with absurd premises she had no depth at all. They added depth to her to match the pace and theme of the show.
I love that with time she grew up to be this fan favorite character, before it was just Abed and Troy, or Annie .. and now Britta really found her audience years later. Too bad she wasn't appreciated like that when the show was on.
I just binge watch the watch recently during pandemic. And I must say this was a great timing for me to watch the show and see Britta. Her airhead behaviour, caring for other but not herself, being a joke among friends yet accept it because of her self awareness really reflected what I’ve gone through. Plus, she is the most real person in the group as well and audience really loves her and emphasises actually. I guess it is due to age thing. Anyway, I hope they do a redemption to her in the movie for playing with her so much because she is really the best.
I mean, her (character) had a lot of ridiculous stances, but unlike most (modern) feminists, she was sincere, applied her beliefs without prejudice and most importantly, believed in the importance of freedom of expression rather than censorship over offence caused to certain groups or genders.
"What Jeff's doing right now is called denial, and it is the first of the five stages of grief that ends with acceptance" "Name any other stage." "What are you, my final?" GETS ME EVERYTIME
I rewatched that entire episode yesterday. Her lines, delivery are actually very great. People say that they Britta'd her towards the end, but she has her standouts.
Awww, I like that this had an arc to it, and came around to showing why Britta is the heart of the group. She's still the worst, but she's also the best.
Man I love Britta, it's sad seeing her become little more than a dumping ground over the series. Every character had their flaws and annoying characteristics but the show played it like she was always in the wrong, while the others got redemption for their flaws. I mean she was so understanding when Abed as Troy broke up with her, but it was just a growth moment for Troy. After the theatre night when she was sad because her old friends hurt her, it turned into a moment for Duncan to develop and go have a moment with Jeff. So many moments that should have been hers were tossed away
Completely agree with you. She was many things, stated in letter season, but She was never 'dumb idiot who doesn't know her surrounding' of person. And from s2 how the hell she become 'the worst' I don't get it. mean there is Pierce : racists, sexists, homophobic, creepy dude. Dean : just pathetic. Chang : straight up psychopath. And some how Brita is the worst.
@@amitbhagat2947 Definitely! I think at first 'the worst' was an ok joke but then they all kept saying it, even characters who weren't a big part of the show, it was too much. I still love all the characters but I hate seeing them be so mean to Britta when she never really did anything to hurt people on purpose.
I find it weird how so many people went along with the show's "Britta's the worst" thing as if she truly was totally irredeemable and didn't deserve to be there. I mean I regularly see character rankings where she's dead last which is just insane to me because I think she's really likeable and entertaining. Even in episodes where she does genuinely nice things for people everyone still hates her and I just don't get it.
@@hwren9845 Yeah that's a real shame, because I struggle to think of a time when I genuinely didn't like Britta. I love all the characters, but they all said/did things at times that made me dislike them for a bit, except for Britta. I guess it's a case of people hearing it so much that they start to believe it
The episode where she throws the Sophie B Hawkins dance is one of my favorites. I love that they gave Britta the A Plot and not have it be about how Britta is total failure. Made for a nice moment at the end there
I remember on my first watch of community I was absorbed with Allison Brie's beauty, but on my recent re-watch I was repeatedly thinking of how pretty Gillian Jacobs is. I wish her character was written to be more clever at times. I wanted her to outsmart Jeff more, but the writers leaned too hard into her being a stupid pseudo-intellectual. I really liked the way she looked at Troy; it seemed like it was really only reserved for his character.
I think Britta in season 2 and 3 is the best written character in the show imo. Season 4 she was basically a side character more than chang, then when Harmon came back, it got a lot funnier again. But man, they made Britta unbelievably stupid in those last 2 seasons... They made her more reasonable with the mustard on her face joke for Meow Meow Beanz, but thats how she should have been for the last 2 season, not just one episode.
She’s not stupid, she’s of average intelligence, it’s just being around someone as clever as Jeff and likeable as everybody else makes her so wildly insecure.
She is the best. Despite they made her more of an exaggerated version of herself later on, her care, drive for her friends even if they ignore her, is very relatable and inspiring. And, she is actually a good psychiatrist. If you notice, she is eventually right at many occasions. I don’t see many actors maintain her fresh other than Gill tbh. She and Joel also had a great chemistry. Flow of the conversations were so smooth and fast. I am happy Britta was somewhat happy in the finale but I think she still deserves much better. I hope the movie will do her more justice.
That's Britta's problem. Usually what she says is true. But she does the bare amount of research and comes off so abrasive that no one takes her seriously
Her character shows that not all beautiful ppl are secure or smart or have great love lives. She went from uncomfortable to be vulnerable with a massive wall up to the vulnerable but a person with good intentions but no proper direction to carry those intentions out. I never thought her character was funny but looking back at her scenes now u know u need her coz she is ridiculously funny- a humanitarian who is ridiculously funny.
in what world are you living in that you think Britta 'wasnt funny'??? You just said you understand her neccessity to the show, which literally means you think she was funny... Also Gillian Jacobs was fucking hilarious, and the writing for Britta in season 2 and 3(and half of 5) was fantastic. Thats like saying Shirley isnt funny and you dont think shes funny because of the character flaws that make her interesting and make the story more interesting.
Her oil and Hispanic voters line is her absolute best line imo. I had to pause to holler for several minutes the first time I heard it. 💯 on the delivery too
I actually love all the changes she went through. She became a lot dumber but a lot more loveable and then amazing in the last 2 seasons, combing her obliviousness and political correctness. She was the funniest character on the show for a long time in my opinion.
For most of the first season she could make points, argue with people and credibly insult Winger. Then all that went away forever and she became a punching bag. Dan Harmon couldn't restrain his neckbeard nature and was probably making her a caricature of the woman he was serially sexually harrassing. Caring about stuff? + Lol owned ur dumb = best tv show for fat kid redditlordes
S:1, E:2 - Britta & Abed were my favorites throughout all 6 seasons. Even though we saw glimpes of her growth, we also see her backslide with poor choices we all can relate too. I like that she is an imperfect character trying to figure things out. I still love her because I know she has good intentions and cares deeply for the group, even though her passion & style of communication comes out a bit harsh sometimes. Overall, I think it is her & Abed that are the glue & heart of the group. I still wanted her character to be treated better by the male characters. I didn't like how she was ridiculed. I love that she connected with Shirley and found real female friendship she needed to help softing her edges. " She has always Pee'd alone." I love how Britta could always see right thru Jeff's intentions & his bull from the very beginning. His charming jibber-jabber & rhetoric had gotten him so far in life but wasn't working for Britta. He was attracted to her beauty at first but her total disinterest & rejection, was now a challenge for him to pursue. " Look Jeff, your harmless to me, but a life of up's & downs has given me Douche~ray vision, but those are good people in there, and they trust & respect you and watching you exploit them kinda bums me out.- Your cute, but selfish & Narcistic to the point of near delusion." I think Jeff liked that she actually saw who he was and he could stop pretending & begin to have honest friendships. If she had been easy in his pursuit, he would have been bored soon after getting what he wanted and would be an underdeveloped character. Britta helped Jeff start to grow from the first episode & he felt the need to prove her wrong & show her that he can care. Overall, every character on Community brought out the worst & best in everyone. They are looking in the mirror of life, & realization that shows who they truely are. They are able to see the faults, insecurities and facade that they had gone thru in life pretending to be. As a Community, they found true friendship & acceptance in each other, regardless of all the rejections that life dealt them. Throughout the 6 seasons they each always wanted the best for each other, and in that, they found the friendship & family they needed all along. I will be waiting to see how they have each evolved in "The Community Movie." *side note - I will never like the Annie/Jeff thing. It's just too icky seeing the older guy with the fantasy of getting the younger girl. This makes Jeff's character very gross & unattractive. I don't like that he can easily manipulate Annie's gullible, inexperienced youth, but it is so relatable in today's world, with the Me Too Movement brought to light. I think he only likes that Annie sees him better than he really is & feeds his EGO. Annie's immaturity is seen with her crush on Troy first & then later with Jeff. I don't like that her crushes seem to debilitate her true intelligence & decisions. You can tell this direction between Jeff & Annie's relationship was written from the male perspective. I really don't know why so many people want them together. It would be bad. Relationship growth would only be one sided. Annie feeding Jeff's Narcistic EGO would eventually make her bored of him. He could never could reciprocate the love she would need. I hope that they would grow more as friends and not in what would be a toxic & boring relationship. I just want all the characters friendships to endure.
I was rooting for Britta during this episode (14:14) . Abed has shown over and over again that he's sometimes way too obsessed and can't make rational decisions. Of course he's got Asperger so you can't be mad at him, but Britta was a good friend to Abed and I don't think she ever got the recognition she deserved. I'm also glad that Cinemameta cared to put emotional scenes showing Britta's worth.

I mean she was so understanding when Abed as Troy broke up with her, but it was just a growth moment for Troy. After the theatre night when she was sad because her old friends hurt her, it turned into a moment for Duncan to develop and go have a moment with Jeff. So many moments that should have been hers were tossed away
Completely agree with you. She was many things, stated in letter season, but She was never 'dumb idiot who doesn't know her surrounding' of person. And from s2 how the hell she become 'the worst' I don't get it. mean there is Pierce : racists, sexists, homophobic, creepy dude. Dean : just pathetic. Chang : straight up psychopath. And some how Brita is the worst.
@@amitbhagat2947 Definitely! I think at first 'the worst' was an ok joke but then they all kept saying it, even characters who weren't a big part of the show, it was too much. I still love all the characters but I hate seeing them be so mean to Britta when she never really did anything to hurt people on purpose.
love the britta appreciation
I find it weird how so many people went along with the show's "Britta's the worst" thing as if she truly was totally irredeemable and didn't deserve to be there. I mean I regularly see character rankings where she's dead last which is just insane to me because I think she's really likeable and entertaining. Even in episodes where she does genuinely nice things for people everyone still hates her and I just don't get it.
@@hwren9845 Yeah that's a real shame, because I struggle to think of a time when I genuinely didn't like Britta. I love all the characters, but they all said/did things at times that made me dislike them for a bit, except for Britta. I guess it's a case of people hearing it so much that they start to believe it

This proves this show is one of the best well written sitcoms. These lines are gold!
True
Like how you ended the last 2 mins with them realizing how awesome Britta can be.
You know Britta is a great character when she ends up as the actual MVP of Troy’s farewell episode! Her hair alone steals the show.
The episode where she throws the Sophie B Hawkins dance is one of my favorites. I love that they gave Britta the A Plot and not have it be about how Britta is total failure. Made for a nice moment at the end there
Just finished binging Community on Netflix, and I got here because I kinda have a crush on Britta.
Me too
Okay.
how exactly?
@@meto9285 she wears a lot of heeled boots 👍
@@susieq360 okay?
She seemed smarter than us when we met her.
I like how they listened to Gillian's request to make Britta more zany because Gillian likes to play weird characters
so she Britta'd her own character?🤣
That smile at the very end was so endearing!
Britta for the win.
"Name any other stage."
It kills me every time.
I remember on my first watch of community I was absorbed with Allison Brie's beauty, but on my recent re-watch I was repeatedly thinking of how pretty Gillian Jacobs is. I wish her character was written to be more clever at times. I wanted her to outsmart Jeff more, but the writers leaned too hard into her being a stupid pseudo-intellectual. I really liked the way she looked at Troy; it seemed like it was really only reserved for his character.
This comment is literally underrated and so true
Amen.
bdonovable k
I think Britta in season 2 and 3 is the best written character in the show imo. Season 4 she was basically a side character more than chang, then when Harmon came back, it got a lot funnier again. But man, they made Britta unbelievably stupid in those last 2 seasons... They made her more reasonable with the mustard on her face joke for Meow Meow Beanz, but thats how she should have been for the last 2 season, not just one episode.
She’s not stupid, she’s of average intelligence, it’s just being around someone as clever as Jeff and likeable as everybody else makes her so wildly insecure.
Britta for the win!
Britta's the best!
i was gonna say!
"I'm sorry, it was an accident"
"So was the Y chromossome, but you don't see us throwing stuff at it"
She is the best. Despite they made her more of an exaggerated version of herself later on, her care, drive for her friends even if they ignore her, is very relatable and inspiring. And, she is actually a good psychiatrist. If you notice, she is eventually right at many occasions. I don’t see many actors maintain her fresh other than Gill tbh. She and Joel also had a great chemistry. Flow of the conversations were so smooth and fast. I am happy Britta was somewhat happy in the finale but I think she still deserves much better. I hope the movie will do her more justice.
This video got real heart-warming outta nowhere
Its scary how i relate so much to britta
the last minute or so had me crying, i did NOT expect that
Brita was always my favorite...
Britta is adorable.
The text he sent her and her reaction melt my heart. They really are great friends.
She's my favorite girlfailure
I so hoped this would include "ROXAAAAAANNE"
Nope *Jeff’s voice
Don't care what they say, Britta is the best! Proof? 122 likes and 0 dislikes!

Humanity is premiering, you jags!!!!
Im absolutely in love with Britta Perry
damn can't believe im still in love with britta perry
She's absolutely my favorite, i'm not even bothered by her sjw-ness cause i almost always agree with what she says.
That's Britta's problem. Usually what she says is true. But she does the bare amount of research and comes off so abrasive that no one takes her seriously
yep, same here
My favorite character in my favorite show of all time!
She's literally the best
awww, that last set was really sweet
1:21 Of all the hilarious references and parodies in this classic show, this moment is my favourite.
omg she is so beautiful, so pure beauty
Britta is the best.
"I don't even believe in God but I love me some Abed" never have I ever felt more connected to Britta
Her character shows that not all beautiful ppl are secure or smart or have great love lives. She went from uncomfortable to be vulnerable with a massive wall up to the vulnerable but a person with good intentions but no proper direction to carry those intentions out. I never thought her character was funny but looking back at her scenes now u know u need her coz she is ridiculously funny- a humanitarian who is ridiculously funny.
in what world are you living in that you think Britta 'wasnt funny'??? You just said you understand her neccessity to the show, which literally means you think she was funny... Also Gillian Jacobs was fucking hilarious, and the writing for Britta in season 2 and 3(and half of 5) was fantastic. Thats like saying Shirley isnt funny and you dont think shes funny because of the character flaws that make her interesting and make the story more interesting.

Britta you are not the worst, you are the best!!!!!
The show has so many little gems
remember when Britta told Pierce that her problem was she didn't have a filter
The Knock knock joke Always kills me
Britta is not the worst, she's the best.
high? on my own draahmaaah?!!
Jeff’s text to her when he uses “Britta’d” as a sincere compliment gets me.
My favorite Britta moment comes at 0:45! Simply brilliant!! Not even Britta can Britta that gag!!
show this video to someone who is in the middle of season 1 and you blow his mind
Wow this ended so pure 😭😍
Her oil and Hispanic voters line is her absolute best line imo. I had to pause to holler for several minutes the first time I heard it. 💯 on the delivery too
Second is “wouldn’t know I haven’t thought about myself in years /smug”
“Who’s there bitch! Floor! FLOOOOR!” One of my favorite Britta quotes
Britt’s not the worst, she’s the best
britta in the floor is lava episode was SO GOOD
I love how much she changed as a character compared to everybody else
I actually love all the changes she went through. She became a lot dumber but a lot more loveable and then amazing in the last 2 seasons, combing her obliviousness and political correctness. She was the funniest character on the show for a long time in my opinion.
Gregory Fister
She was was written as a poor communicator but she was the most earnest and honest.
@@MODEL_CITIZEN exactly, she is the anti-winger! He always lies, but is a flashy communicator
For most of the first season she could make points, argue with people and credibly insult Winger. Then all that went away forever and she became a punching bag. Dan Harmon couldn't restrain his neckbeard nature and was probably making her a caricature of the woman he was serially sexually harrassing. Caring about stuff? + Lol owned ur dumb = best tv show for fat kid redditlordes
@@misombra the hell are you on about. She's the best character in the show
her character has so much to offer and the writers didnt see that :'(
BRITTA IS THE BEST!
The heart of the Group is Abed but we aint ready for that yet
S:1, E:2 - Britta & Abed were my favorites throughout all 6 seasons. Even though we saw glimpes of her growth, we also see her backslide with poor choices we all can relate too. I like that she is an imperfect character trying to figure things out. I still love her because I know she has good intentions and cares deeply for the group, even though her passion & style of communication comes out a bit harsh sometimes. Overall, I think it is her & Abed that are the glue & heart of the group. I still wanted her character to be treated better by the male characters. I didn't like how she was ridiculed. I love that she connected with Shirley and found real female friendship she needed to help softing her edges. " She has always Pee'd alone."
I love how Britta could always see right thru Jeff's intentions & his bull from the very beginning. His charming jibber-jabber & rhetoric had gotten him so far in life but wasn't working for Britta. He was attracted to her beauty at first but her total disinterest & rejection, was now a challenge for him to pursue. " Look Jeff, your harmless to me, but a life of up's & downs has given me Douche~ray vision, but those are good people in there, and they trust & respect you and watching you exploit them kinda bums me out.- Your cute, but selfish & Narcistic to the point of near delusion." I think Jeff liked that she actually saw who he was and he could stop pretending & begin to have honest friendships. If she had been easy in his pursuit, he would have been bored soon after getting what he wanted and would be an underdeveloped character. Britta helped Jeff start to grow from the first episode & he felt the need to prove her wrong & show her that he can care. Overall, every character on Community brought out the worst & best in everyone. They are looking in the mirror of life, & realization that shows who they truely are. They are able to see the faults, insecurities and facade that they had gone thru in life pretending to be. As a Community, they found true friendship & acceptance in each other, regardless of all the rejections that life dealt them. Throughout the 6 seasons they each always wanted the best for each other, and in that, they found the friendship & family they needed all along. I will be waiting to see how they have each evolved in "The Community Movie."
*side note - I will never like the Annie/Jeff thing. It's just too icky seeing the older guy with the fantasy of getting the younger girl. This makes Jeff's character very gross & unattractive. I don't like that he can easily manipulate Annie's gullible, inexperienced youth, but it is so relatable in today's world, with the Me Too Movement brought to light. I think he only likes that Annie sees him better than he really is & feeds his EGO. Annie's immaturity is seen with her crush on Troy first & then later with Jeff. I don't like that her crushes seem to debilitate her true intelligence & decisions.
You can tell this direction between Jeff & Annie's relationship was written from the male perspective. I really don't know why so many people want them together. It would be bad. Relationship growth would only be one sided. Annie feeding Jeff's Narcistic EGO would eventually make her bored of him. He could never could reciprocate the love she would need. I hope that they would grow more as friends and not in what would be a toxic & boring relationship. I just want all the characters friendships to endure.
I was rooting for Britta during this episode (14:14) . Abed has shown over and over again that he's sometimes way too obsessed and can't make rational decisions. Of course he's got Asperger so you can't be mad at him, but Britta was a good friend to Abed and I don't think she ever got the recognition she deserved.
I'm also glad that Cinemameta cared to put emotional scenes showing Britta's worth.
