    The idea of doing a clip show only 6 seasons in is diabolical.

      In the '70s/'80s, one clip show per season was pretty common.

        Yeah, and nobody liked it. It was just there to save the show some money.

          Cartoonists, too, need vacations

            You could hire enough of them so they can get their vacation.

        That’s why we all love Community. In “Paradigms of Human Memory” (Season 2, Episode 21) it was super expensive because all the clips were new. It was a great episode in general too.

          They also burned up a lot of great premises. But ya know what, that clip show was great. “It’s all terrain, dummy.”

          Rick and Morty (also Harmon) did the same with the Mindblowers (or whatever it was called) episode. Also great.

            Interdimensional cable episodes were the original R&M clip shows but i think it got stale for Harmon so they did the mindblowers on the newer season

        I guess it made more sense back when people didn’t catch every episode. Still glad it’s not the norm these days.

        But I forgave them because I knew they needed to save that money for the finales

      The first clip show episode is actually season 4 episode 18, but the framing for the clips is so good that the episode is worth watching.
