More than once, we've seen how much people in Greendale can't stand 'The Greendale 7' like when students commented how they actually felt like they were learning more when the group wasn't there because they had a tendency to make everything about them.

[@hittingyouoverthehead]

@@demoblaster Don't forget that the group nearly pushed Neil to the edge of suicide, Jeff by giving him the name Fat Neil and then Pierce by using that name. They took control of the entire school's chicken fingers supply, Jeff and Annie made the Student President debate about the two of them, Annie leaked to everyone that Chang wasn't a qualified Spanish teacher and wasted everyone's semester, Troy and Abed started the blanket fort vs pillow fort war which Jeff escalated because he hated homework. Everyone in the group ruined things all the time but Jeff is especially unbearable and selfish. And I'm also guessing that the Dean's obsession with this group simply because it is diverse didn't sit too well with the other students either. The guy literally warned them first personally when a fire broke out because he wanted them to escape first.

Der Typ everybody on the internet should be banned from using that word [‘underrated’]. It’s not enough for some people to just like what they like, it has to be unpopular as well, as if that somehow ultra-validates their opinions above most else’s because they appreciated something that few else did.

[@jorgepeterbarton]

@@neontime8507 don't think it's inaccurate, I mean it got last seasons picked up by Yahoo and have never heard of it except from KZbin or looking up "who created Rick and morty" It's not enough because some exec decides its not worth making more based on numbers alone, so yes that happened many times with it. There are other series that got totally cancelled, so the reason 'underrated' because they get stopped before the plot even gets tied up. Ratings are not necessary indicative of the show, often publicity, network, time aired.

Todd's character is a scapegoat. Mostly he just stands there being extremely nice if a little creepy, but through eyes of the 'group' they project all their own psycho problems on him after basically emotionally abusing him. Is from the episode where he has to work on assignment with them, being very nice. And group being total crazy.

Of course we the audience are included in everything that goes in the clique, so we feel part of it, and so we find the way the seven of them ruthlessly get their way to be funny rather than outrageous.
