Last Night on Community: Hot Fuzz

If the pitch-perfect Goodfellas homage that Community nailed two weeks ago wasn't enough of a reason to get you on board what has become the funniest comedy on television (take that, Modern Family!), then perhaps last night's all-action edition will. Using a paintball contest as a loose backdrop to reference every action cliche from the last 25 years is one thing; using it to nail the played out "will they/won't they" romance between Joel McHale's Jeff and Gillian Jacobs's Brita (answer: They will), while also finding time to backhand Glee across the auto-tuned face is quite another. After the jump, video evidence of the awesomeness.

And for those keeping score at home, there were also references to 28 Days Later, The Matrix, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Scarface, Hard Boiled and The Warriors. Fun fact: both "Modern Warfare" and "Contemporary American Poultry" (the Goodfellas episode) were both written by comedienne Emily Cutler. Dear Emily: Thanks! Also, prepare yourself an Emmy speech.
