god community has this way of writing character flaws that makes everyone so easy to connect with. annie is headstrong and uptight, troy is insecure and desperate to be loved, abed has trouble with people but desires connection, jeff uses sarcasm to mask his self-loathing, britta wants badly to make a difference but her activism is superficial, shirley defines her role in the group based on what she can give to others

and these are all supposed to be “bad” things, yet they’re the traits that make the study group so sympathetic and so human

#season one troy drives me insane #there’s something so universal about his longing for the affection of others #his attitude is somewhat toxic and arrogant but somehow he’s so loveable #because everyone can relate to that #similarly jeff is one of those people i just can’t hate in spite of everything #i just feel so much for these characters even when they’re in the wrong #abed too!! he makes mistakes but they all contribute to his arc #and britta for example could easily be insufferable #but i just can’t help loving all of the characters not just in spite of their flaws but because of them #ok that’s your bit of community obsessed rambling for rn #community nbc #community
