Community: Every Paintball Episode Ranked Worst To Best

7. Advanced Introduction to Finality

The Season 4 finale functions as that year's paintball episode, though the characters don't technically play paintball. Instead, the characters the episode firing specialised paintball-like guns which send their targets to different timelines at their Darkest Timeline counterparts. Its shootout style climax gives the episode a paintball-esque feeling, allowing it to make this list.

Advanced Introduction to Finality rounds out season four, aka the notorious "gas leak year," reviled by fans and show creator Dan Harmon alike. Unfortunately, the season finale may be the weakest outing in the show's weakest season.

Its premise is all wrong, as Jeff spends the entire episode dreaming up a scenario about the Darkest Timeline, which no one but Abed ever takes seriously. Additionally, the episode borders on sci-fi territory before telling the audience it's all been a dream. As it does so, you can almost hear the show revving up its motorcycle in preparation to jump the shark.

Plus, the paintball action isn't as cool as usual, with most characters taking out their alternate timeline selves with a joke rather than through actual paintball skills.
