Funny? You Think Women are Funny?






So, who knew that women could be funny, huh? Not just funny, but also intelligent and interesting.

And this, ladies and gents, is why I love Community so much.

It's nice to watch women who don't just blindly jump from guy to guy (or girl to girl, whichever way they swing), have no real presence, and ultimately, don't bring anything new to television.

After the show's triumphant return on March 15th, I was able to come across this great article detailing the life of 'the female' on the set of Community. This is a show like no other, giving their female characters growth and perspective. From the young, naive, yet loving Annie to the strong feminist Britta and the spiritual Shirley, these are such distinctive personalities that are rarely seen on television.

There is no doubt that a favorite aspect of this show for many people is being able to watch all seven personalities interact with one another, but more importantly, watching these women hold their own against comedy greats is absolutely rewarding.

So take a look at this article. They all eventually cry. Not joking. Psh, females.

The Women of Community
