Community: Every Paintball Episode Ranked Worst To Best

2. Modern Warfare

Community Paintball
NBC

There's no denying that the first ever paintball episode Changed the game for Community. When the Dean makes the mistake of offering priority registration to the winner of a school wide game of paintball assassin, the game turns into an all out war. We follow the study group as they make a tenuous alliance with each other, and see our favourite characters get picked off one by one.

Not only was this the first paintball episode, this also marked plenty of other Community firsts. This is the first time Jeff and Britta sleep together, as well as the first time Jeff does something genuinely selfless, when he gives Shirley his priority registration prize.

The action in this episode is also insane. It's no surprise that the director, Justin Lin, went on to work on the Fast and the Furious and Star Trek franchises, given his knack for directing action. The crowning achievement of the episode has to be when Chang, who apparently plays paintball regularly, bursts into the study room and has his epic showdown with Jeff and Britta.

Without Modern Warfare's success, there wouldn't be any other paintball episodes to rank.
