3. Alternative History Of The German Invasion
The Germans from Foosball and Nocturnal Vigilantism were a fun bunch in moderation, but no one asked for a full episode of them. Seeing them return to irritate the Study Group was unexpected, and not in a pleasant way. That pretty much sums up this entire episode.
In this chapter of Greendale, the gang begins their new history class, only to be caught up in a battle with the German students who take control of the study room and force them to look for alternative spaces. This did paint an amusing picture of how much hatred the group attained by hogging the classic study space, but that's about it for smart humour here.
If you're a fan of campy German stereotypes, then this might be the one for you, but for most viewers, this was a cheap and lazy set of jabs that harkened to a style of comedy which felt beneath the witty and clever show.
This episode also introduced Kevin and his Changnesia into the fray, which re-set the character in a decent way, but - as stated in an earlier entry - was far too silly and unbelievable.
