The most recent episode of Community, NBC’s comedy about a rag-tag (Breakfast Club-like) group of community college goers, has cemented its reputation as one of the hot new TV shows.

In the episode, which is called Physical Education, the main storyline involves one of the character’s discomfort when his gym teacher tells the class they must wear shorts in order to participate in the college’s “Billards” class.

And like a lot of the brilliant episodes, it involves a terrific musical montage at the end, culminating in…well, you just have to watch.

Spoilers!

The show is centred upon a group of seven students: Jeff, the lawyer and arguably the main character; Brita, the aimless twenty-something activist; Pierce, the old buffoon; Troy, the former high-school star athlete; Abed, the pop-culture guru; Shirley, the recently divorced mother; and Annie, the repressed Jewish high-school dropout.

The show has a lot of heart and even more pop culture references. It’s quite zany and is just a laugh riot.

A long trailer about the show

Somewhere out there…

Words cannot describe how awesome this music video is.

OK Go, by the way, is the American band that won a Grammy for their music video, Here It Goes Again, in which they sang the song while dancing on treadmills.

Last event of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics: Men’s Ice Hockey final.

Anybody who doesn’t comprehend how important hockey is to Canadians simply needs to watch this commercial.

The Canada vs. USA game which happened earlier in the non-elimination rounds attracted over 10 million Canadian television viewers. That’s almost a third of the population. This game will almost certainly smash that record. How high could it go? 12 million? 15 million?

There’s a hilarious soundbite on the video montage here where a Canadian couple are interviewed at a Canadian hockey game.

“Better than your wedding day?” the BBC interviewer asks.

The wife and husband hesitates for a moment, then they both shrug and go, “Yeeeaaaahh!”

Okay. Puck drops off in two minutes.

Here we are. Quarter finals for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic games.

Canada versus Russia.

There’s just so much history between the two nations and their hockey—most of it stemming from the Cold War and what happened in 1972.

Yesterday, when Canada played Germany, something like 10 million Canadians were watching the game. That’s like a third of the nation. And even for someone like me, who’s not normally a big hockey fan—it’s hard not stay up and watch this game, with heart and soul rooting for my home team.

Let’s go Canada!
