Community - Dan Harmon totally Britta it!

Como ya sabéis, el queridísimo productor de Community Dan Harmon vuelve para la quinta temporada. Todos sabemos que la cuarta no ha sido igual sin él, pero una cosa es que lo digamos nosotros y otra es que lo suelte él en mitad de su podcast, y vaya como lo hizo.

As you already know, the beloved Community's producer, Dan Harmon, is coming back for the fifth season. We all know that the fourth wasn't as good as always without him, but one thing is that we say it and another is that he says it in the middle of his podcast.

Dan Harmon se había negado a ver la cuarta temporada, pero se decidió a verla al recuperar su puesto como productor de la serie. Al terminar, no solo no le gustó la serie, sino que la compara con ver a tu novia en Instagram chupándosela a un millón de tíos. Bastante exagerado. Básicamente, la define como una - muy mala - imitación de su trabajo en las anteriores temporadas, metiéndose con actores, guionistas y productores. Básicamente con todo lo que no fuera Dan Harmon - se califica a si mismo de genio -. A continuación os dejo un trecho del podcast para que le echéis un vistazo.

Dan Harmon didn't want to watch season four, but after taking back his job at the show we had no option. He did it, and not only he didn't like it, but he compares it with seeing your girlfriend in Instagram blowing a million other guys. Quite an over-reaction. He basically describes it as a - very bad - imitation of his work in the other seasons, shitting over actors, writers and producers. Well, shitting over everything that wasn't Dan Harmon - he qualifies himself as a genius -. Here's a little bit of the podcast, just take a look. 

“I watched season four. I guess I already knew this, but apparently, I’m quite a genius … I think I feel pretty comfortable expressing any kind of 'Eh, not my cup of tea' about it because — this has been expressed a thousand times over — it's obviously not somebody doing what they do and trying very hard to make people happy. It is very much like an impression, and an unflattering one. It’s just thirteen episodes of 'Oh, I’m Dan Harmon! Derpy, derpy, durr! Die Hard! Durrrrr!' I feel like I'm going back to work tomorrow morning, and I just feel like, 'Do I talk like that?'… Man, watching those characters without me there is just not fuckin' cool, man. It's like flipping through Instagrams and watching your girlfriend just blow a million [other guys].”

Como era de esperar, poner verde a la serie en la que vas a trabajar mínimo el próximo año y que te odien todos los guionistas y actores no es una gran idea. Por ello, tras disculparse por Twitter y ver que no era suficiente, ha escrito en su blog una disculpa por sus "un-Community" comentarios hacia todos aquellos que trabajaron en la cuarta temporada, justificándose en que se había dejado llevar por el enfado de no haber podido trabajar el también en ella. ¿Será verdad que Dan Harmon siente celos de la cuarta o será solo una estratagema recomendada por su abogado para evitar que le linchemos entre los fans y los guionistas en el primer día de trabajo? Me inclino por la segunda.

As expected, shitting over the series you are gonna work in at least for the next year and making all the writers and actors hate you is not a great idea. That's why after apologizing in  Twitter and seeing that it wasn't enough, decided to write in his blog an apology for his "un-Community" comments towards all those who had worked in season four, justifying himself by saying that he was jealous for not have been able to take part in it. Is it true that he was jealous or is it just a trick recommended by his lawyer so he doesn't get beaten by fans and writers his first day at work? I believe it's the second option.
