Watch as NBC's Community Takes 3 Seasons to Complete Beetlejuice Joke

If you're a fan of Tim Burton's 1988 classic then you understand why it took NBC's Community three seasons to pull off their Beetlejuice gag, and it was well worth it.

The last couple of weeks haven't been great for fans of NBC's Community. The cult comedy hasn't exactly been a darling in the ratings, and the station has pulled the show from the air, putting them in the dreaded hiatus zone. Now don't be too alarmed, NBC has promised that the show has not been canceled, but if you're a loyal fan you might want to help promote it since NBC has done a lousy job of it. Now enjoy the video! By the way watch closely at the end or you'll miss it.



Also if you don't understand the joke, or don't know what Beetlejuice is, first you officially suck. Secondly, I'll be nice and fill in the blanks, in order to have the ghoulishly delightful character Beetlejuice appear it requires his name being said three times.

I concur Hela and Gmoney this is defintely not main worthy? Community? Beetlejuice? You're only good for set videos from The Dark Knight Rises. Stick to that and leave the rest to the real Editors.

Woah, if you have no audio at work like i do, then you miss the entire point because there's nothing to see here at all. Not to bitch or anything...

I love Community. I'd much rather see this stuff on main then Walking Dead crap.

But I'm biased. Just severely over zombie stuff.

@BmanHall -In that case, all the stuff about actual comic books probably don't belong either

to all haters: look closely at the end. beetlejuice appears walking behind that chick...get it now?

so what if Beetlejuice is comic related? So is Superman, but I don't write an article about Scrubs every time I hear the theme tune. Really, how is this on main?

Here's a comic joke from Friends, loads funnier and no article about it: http://youtu.be/5gr75OQabg0

@Denn1s O shit!!! Totally missed that one the first time. Even better! Community rules!

@BmanHall if it's worth being on Main, then it doesn't matter whether it's movie related or not IMO. As long as there's an actual point to posting it. This article, however, is pointless. If this was posted by another member who'd never been on main before, it'd probably be pulled from the site within 5 mins. CBMs should get prominence over comic book article though.

sure its comic book related, but i disagree that this is worthy of main.

AND it isnt funny...

@Gmoney84 @Helagood when did you 2 decide upon yourselves that you were in charge of what's on main and not? Just go back to sucking c*ck, or in other words: go back to work

@yossarian so in other words you decided to click and read an article about everything you don't care about. Congratulations, you are the dumbest piece of crap on this website

@theWorld wow, you really didn't get the joke did you? It was too smart for you wasn't it? *IDIOT ALERT!*
