A little over a week ago, I got to visit the set of one of the best shows on television: NBC’s Community. As I said yesterday when I posted a bunch of behind the scenes photos from the set, I learned a lot about the upcoming third season and it all sounds great. Since I know most of you don’t want to be spoiled, I’ll just leave you with a hint of what’s to come. While last season was about Pierce (Chevy Chase) being the antagonist of the group, the third season is about outside antagonists…

While on set, I got to participate in group interviews with the cast. While I debated which one to post first, I decided to go with the one that had the least spoilers: Joel McHale (Jeff) and Alison Brie (Annie). During the interview they talked about the way the show is put together, the amount of Emmy’s the show has gotten, what’s in store for the third season, if there will be paintball, the additions of Michael K. Williams and John Goodman and how their characters impact the show, McHale talks about taping The Soup during Community and Brie talks briefly about Mad Men, and a lot more. Hit the jump to watch.
