It is always good to watch shows that are new and returning rather than watching re-runs all the time. From next week, GO! is bringing back shows like Chuck, Community, The Bachelor (probably won't watch that) and unaired episodes of Top Gear Australia. These are programmed to be in the prime-time to late night slots.
Community is an US comedy series if you haven't heard of it already and follows a range of different characters of all ages including a lawyer, a former drug addict, a single mother and a millionaire, just to name a few, that interact in a study group at a community college. It will be heading into its third season on GO!, which premiered in the US in September last year so its about time we get to see it here! Devoted fans would already have seen it by downloading all the episodes however.
I like the show as the series plays heavily on jokes within jokes and typical types of daily scenarios at a college as well as making frequent references to pop culture, taking off film and television and the clichés they come with them.
The cast
However, just today it has been reported that it is not always a community spirit on the show. A bitter war of words has broken out between veteran funnyman Chevy Chase and the creator of the hit television show Community, resulting in the actor leaving a foul-mouthed voicemail on his boss' phone that has been leaked online.
Chase stars as Pierce Hawthorne in the comedy, and he branded his boss Dan Harmon "fat", an "alcoholic" and an "abomination" in the profanity-riddled message which has sparked rumours that the star is likely to quit the show.Bad blood between the pair flared when Chase reportedly walked off the set on the final day of shooting last month without filming a crucial scene for the season finale, entertainment website Deadline.com reports.
An infuriated Harmon then gave a speech at the wrap party where he encouraged the crew to yell 'f--- you!" after the 68-year-old, in front of Chase's wife and daughter. Chase left the party with his family immediately hitting back with a phone message Charlie Sheen would be proud of. The words mentioned are not appropriate for this blog however I'm sure anyone interested can just google it if they were that keen.
Harmon reportedly played the voicemail sometime later at a meeting in front of his colleagues and the recording then found its way online. Now thats not cool. Its big news for interested fans of the show anyway, like me.
