Season 5 of Community wrapped filming on Tuesday and the cast and crew have shared some behind the scenes looks via social media.
Community season 5 begins airing on NBC on Thursday, January 2 but principal filming finished up early this week and the folks behind it are eager to share their impressions of the end.
In the grand tradition begun last year, Allison Brie decided to celebrate with a dancing Vine…with a bonus Danny Pudi on bicycle.
NBC could just air that clip for 22 minutes a week for 13 weeks and it would probably be their highest rated show. Gillian Jacobs first broke the news early Monday night.
Today is the final day of shooting for Community Season 5. We start airing on January 2nd at 8pm. http://t.co/gPhOK1usSP

Other stars shared some behind the scenes pics via Twitter. Jim Rash and and Danny Pudi were apparently the only two involved in the last scene filmed and tweeted out around 3 a.m. ET on Tuesday.
Officially wrapped. 3am jam. FYI, Danny and I will be touring. It’s two hours of this sound bite. https://t.co/qp7NpsdICs

They also had to wipe each other down after filming…as you do.

Newly re-installed creator Dan Harmon also shared some photos of the now-vacant sets.
Goodnight and sleep well, all powerful goddess. And should you wake again, call my name. It’s Chris… http://t.co/iA5hXpvo1l

It’s worth noting that the final day of filming was ironically also the day that Donald Glover a.k.a Childish Gambino’s second album “Because the Internet” was released, despite the fact that he’ll only be in five episodes of the new season. Perhaps even more importantly, however, is that critics are starting to receive the first few episodes of season 5 and early impressions are positive.
Oh, the new “Community” episodes are so good. Show feels like itself again.
