Quite a simple question this week. So everyone may have a favourite comedy show, but sometimes individual moments from shows might be even funnier than the show itself. So this week’s question is:

What’s your favourite TV comedy moment?

Mine is from episode two of Community: it’s Pierce’s and Jeff’s presentation to the Spanish class, not just because it’s funny in its own right, but because of all the foreshadowing earlier in the episode. It’s not just clever, it’s funny and it has just the right ending.

For the uninitiated, the story is that Jeff and Pierce have to present a dialogue of five Spanish phrases to the class. However, they have a fight while writing them because Jeff just wants the easy option and Pierce wants to write something more complicated – which Jeff describes as over long, focusing too much on the Israeli Palestinian conflict and, most importantly, not featuring any of the five set phrases.

Although I do have to love the idea of a clips show montage from episodes that were never made.
