OMG never realised they referenced Abed's charting of the girls' cycles before 208 - OR Troy's birthday before 210! This show is quite possibly the most Easter-egg packed gem of a show I've ever seen. Six seasons, a graphic novel and a broadway musical!

@IHaveNoClue1234 Some of the executive producers of Cougar Town and Community are friends (they used to work together on Scrubs, like Cougar Town's Bill Lawrence and Community's Neil Goldman and Garrett Donovan) and starting toying with the idea of having fun promoting each other's struggling shows through fun in-show references. It's all good-natured, and thank heavens NBC and ABC were totally okay with the cross-network promotion!

Cougar Town really needs to show Community some more love. They've only mentioned the show by name once. Abed is constantly expressing his love for Cougar Town.

[@TheBS1000]

For anyone who is unaware, Community also crossed over with a show called Chuck to a lesser extent. One of the actors from Chuck was in the old Greendale commercial shown in season 3 and that same year, Danny Pudi and Yvette Nicole Brown showed up in an episode of Chuck together as employees at the fictional Buy More store where many of the characters worked on the show. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIKwq2duiNidrZI

Ok...now Abed needs to be in Doctor Who

[@tvgirl17]

@FreaKyRandoM That one is the most subtle reference of all, and I think they actually edit it out of reruns. When Abed's robocop vision comes up, in the bottom right corner under "Memos," it says "Record CougarTown"

[@ginnoveffect]

The scene at the end killed me. i didn't notice Danny Pudi in the background until about 5:40 so it felt like he just appeared there instantly.

@tabularasaconfirmed The neighbor/boyfriend/bartender - Grayson (Josh Hopkins) - did in fact cameo. Bill Lawrence made a point to have his cast cameo on as many shows as possible during the Cougar Town hiatus as a stunt to keep some publicity going (and just to have fun!) It's a whole bunch of crossovers, and the user godonlyknowssarah (a prolific Cougar Town vid poster) has uploaded a couple of the random crossovers.

[@TonyLeadholm]

Cougar Town really starts to take off and find itself the Thanksgiving episode of Season 1. Season 2 and 3 are absolute perfection.

[@beckmcclannahan9048]

Alright, I've got an explanation for the fiction loop, how the works can be fiction in eachother. Community is a show in both, however, it has different actors, but a similar dynamic, minus Abed. Abed watched it before going to college, and got fixated on it, but it was probably cut short, maybe season 3 or 4. This explains why Abed acts like life is a TV show, because it *was*, and he was a self-insert. This would also explain why "Make friends with a group of misfits" was on his college to-do list. He was recreating the show in real life

[@rafaferreira6937]

I'm seriously thinking about watching Cougar town just because of Abed😂

[@TonyLeadholm]

You should. Get through the first half of the 1st season - which isn't great...but then the show finds itself and takes off. The 2nd and 3rd seasons are total perfection.

I'm currently in an infinite loop, if cougar town is a show in the community universe, but community is a show in the cougar town universe, which one exists? The only way I was able to escape this infinite logic loop was to recognize that we never actually saw the show community in the cougar town universe, just heard it mentioned, which could mean that there is a show called community in the cougar town universe but it is not the same community we know. That is the only way that Abed could both reference and appear on it.

Also, the people in Scrubs watch the Big Bang Theory, and the people on BBT watch Scrubs. Not nearly as cool as Community (haven't seen Cougartown), but thought it was worth mentioning.

@Alison9487 At one point during the chant, it focuses on a blonde woman in red and a guy. They are Busy Phillips and Dan Byrd, who star on Cougar Town (and also the last clip of this video)

The season 4 Halloween episode in Pierce's mansion also mentions Cougar Town heavily.

[@RileyJSilverman]

I just double checked if his character's name on Mythic Quest was "Chad" because it's been a while since I've watched it and Danny's performance in that scene is so close to his work on MQ. It's "Brad," but now I desperately wish he'd been named Chad to really bring this full circle.

[@Mehzers]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was in that awkward final season. Dr. Cox was telling one of the interns to record the Big Bang Theory for him so he can "see what the fuss was about" or something like that.

[@tenkenroo]

The crazy thing is this means cougar town is a fictional show in its own continuity

@tvgirl17 just thought it was really cool that right under that it said "Troy's birthday 14 days", the episode about Troys Birthday is third after this, it is more like a month after this was aired but still.

[@Ironcorgi2]

So cougar town is a fictional show in the community universe but community also exists in cougar town. This is wrinkling my brain

[@LucyLoppez]

Two of my favorite shows together

[@Enemynarwhal]

@hammockhavoc Community would have been canceled already (from what I've heard) but DVD sales were strong so they renewed it. They might keep it for that reason, if you look at shows with strong DVD sales they tend to make networks more money in the long run than other shows do because their cult following grow exponentially over time. I like to think that networks are starting to learn the benefits of that. Anyways Community ends when Jeff graduates so we only need a fourth season.

[@hansley1989]

Wow, what an actor....

[@Enemynarwhal]

@hammockhavoc S1 DVDs came out when S2 began so it could helped get S3 renewed. DVDs show viewer commitment, they're an easy way to get more viewers (you always have access to the best episodes when friends come over and you can lend the DVD out) and shows with high dvd sales tend to eventually become more popular. Of course that doesn't matter if ratings continue to suck. Harmon does say it can go beyond 4 but he normally mocks the idea after. I really only care about one more series anyways.

For such a big fan of Cougar Town, does Abed understand that "Cougar Town" is the title of the series, and not the actual name of the town it's set in? "Chad" should've gone to Gulf Haven Junior High and Gulf Haven Field.

Their school mascot was a cougar. I think it was implied within the show itself that Gulfhaven is nicknamed "Cougar Town."
