Community: 15 Best End Credits Tags Ever

11. Devon Quits His Apple Job

Community Troy Donald Glover
NBC

Episode: "VCR Maintenance and Educational Publishing" (Season 5, Episode 9)

In one of Community's most low-key devastating moments ever, this surreal tag focuses on Devon, the actor from the interactive VCR game "Pile of Bullets," who in 1993 receives the phone call offering him the lead role in the game.

He's not particularly enthusiastic, but his wife (played by Gina Gershon) encourages him to quit his job at Apple and take the part because she believes VCR games will be the next big thing.

She also believes Apple giving their employees stock as a Christmas gift is terrible, and that the VCR game business will make them rich enough to start a cocaine habit.

It all hinges on Gershon's hysterical performance, and the bizarre fact that Devon is played by none other than Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan.

Watch it at 7:10 in the clip below:
