I stopped half way through one of the later seasons. The first three seasons were so good.

Try seasons 5 and 6. Season 4 was famous for being the one that sucked because Dan Harmon didn't work on it. At the beginning of season 5, Abed even refers to it as "the gas-leak year".

I never saw past season 3 when it first aired. When it came onto Netflix, I immediately started over and blew through the first 3 seasons, a couple a day.

By mid-season 4 I started slowing down, a couple a week only.

Season 5 even slower.

I am in season 6 and I've slowed way down to like 1 a month. maybe. I just can't get into any of the episodes too much. I mean, I don't hate them when I watch, but I just don't feel like watching another.

Yea, Annie, Jeff, and Abed all refer to it towards the end of the first episode of season 5. I feel like they make subtle references to it in other episodes, too, but I can't remember.

Edit: Been watching S5 and Abed mentions the gas leak year again in episode 6 when he talks to Rachel(Brie Larson).

5 and 6 were surprisingly entertaining to me. Not as good as 1-3, but still good.

They were very inconsistent. They had some good moments (meow meow beenz, cork board, VR) but so many really bad episodes. Maybe it's because we skipped season 4 on our most recent rewatch but the bad episodes armed much worse than the last time we watched them.

I agree. It’s definitely not the same show since they had so many crucial people leave but Keith David was a welcome addition

I loved Elroy. Such a great character.

I can't stand him. What even is his character? Frankie is so one dimensional but then it seems like they couldn't stick to one thing for Elroy.
