Community: 10 Best Ben Chang Episodes

1. The First Chang Dynasty

Community, NBC

A maniacal overlord named Ben, dressed like someone from the Napoleonic wars, has taken over the school with his army of adolescent bullies. The study group attempt to pull off an elaborate Ocean’s 11-esque heist to rescue the Dean and expose him as a bit of a lunatic. “The First Chang Dynasty” was effectively the kitchen sink of Chang-based insanity.

It was ridiculous yet glorious, over-dramatic yet somehow hysterical. The whole season built up to this one episode and didn’t disappoint.

This was Community allowing Ben Chang to be his most crazed and over-the -top. It won’t hit the right chord with some people who are more attuned to the character development of those in the study group, but no-one can deny that Ben Chang was an iconic character in both Community and 2010s television.

But what’s so funny? Ben Chang’s keytar makes a reappearance and the audience try to dance to his offbeat groove.
