COMMUNITY: ‘Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas’

Dear Santa, For Christmas I would like the following things: a brand new slingbox, a kitten to cuddle with, for GLEE to stop being so inconsistent, and an Abed of my very own.

My love for Abed Nadir knows no bounds. Of all my TV boyfriends—and, oh, there are many—Abed tops the list every time.

That’s some tough competition, my friends.

COMMUNITY Preview: ‘Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas’

COMMUNITY: ‘Mixology Certification’

The icing on Troy’s birthday cake says it all: “Hello during a random desert, the month and day of which coincide numerically with your expulsion from a uterus.” Aw, how sweet! Happy Expulsion, Troy!
