Episode: "Emotional Consequences of Broadcast Television" (Season 6, Episode 13)

If season five's last end tag was a decisive "f**k you" to NBC, season six's final episode - and the series' last to date - piled on the righteous indignation even further, with a satirical commercial for Community: The Board Game.

Narrated with snide snark by Community creator Dan Harmon himself, the advert features the seemingly typical sight of a family playing the Community-themed board game, only for the son to hand over a tiny script to the father, which happens to be the script to the commercial itself.

In a devastating moment, the father realises he and his family are fictional, before delivering a brutally honest monologue about their non-existence which leaves the family unit shellshocked.

Harmon then returns to keep plugging the game, which dovetails into an hilariously unsubtle meta-commentary as Harmon talks about the show's criticisms, the absurdity of its cancellation, and of course, its eventual resurrection.

If this truly is the final word on Community - and fingers crossed, it isn't - it's an appropriately fourth wall-smashing note to go out on.
