Community Controversy? Well not really.

Looks like thedirty.com has a clip of Community that is somewhat similar to an amateur Funnyordie.com clip.  Some are claiming plagiarism but I don't see it.  I have to say that nether case is what you would call original, in fact several shows have done similar scenes... in fact the Office did one with Tobey when Jim and Pam started dating.  Not to mention that everyone writing that sketch would come up with similar jokes given the story regardless of if they have seen the other.  Plus it seems logical considering the Dean and Joel's characters. I don't see any wrong doing.  Ether way here are the two clips.  You decide:

What do you guys think?

Thanks to Righteous Lady for the story!

  2. Oh whatever, the creepy admin has been part of the show from the beginning and any writer could come up with that situation given the circumstances of the plot. Besides, it wasn't verbatim and Community's bit was better and funnier. :)
