Saying that any of the study group members could be jettisoned is silly, in my opinion. The show can't afford to lose any of the study group members, because that would irreparably compromise the entity that is the study group as we've come to know and love it.
Shirley takes a backstage a lot of the time, but when they go to her for the comedy the character is a goldmine. I could live without Chevy on the show. His style of comedy is completely different from the rest of the show and feels weird at times.

That's a great example of what he's valuable for! The problem is just when he occupies entire episode plots at the expense of the study group characters, who are just as funny and actually deep, well-developed characters.
For the record, I have no problem with Chang, and they've overall been using him very well this season since "Competitive Ecology". I just think that the show could afford to lose him without suffering much from it.
Needless to say, I was hooked immediately, and proceeded to tear through the entire series to date in about a week.
I mean his character name, which I am blanking on at FOUR IN THE MORNING.
Ian Duncan, and you are still a heathen. One somewhere in Europe?
Yar.

"Debate 109" is what got me hooked.
"Physical Education"'s climax is absolutely glorious, definitely one of my favorite moments of the show.
I also love the werewolf joke they slip in there; it's so easy to miss given the ridiculous nature of the scene, but it's so great.
To "Werewolves of London!"
idiotic statement right here
so fucking good.
What on earth are you angry about?
I hold that up as the quintessential example of how good Community's dialogue humor can be.
With a werewolf in the background!
All three seasons so far have been fantastic, as far as I'm concerned. I find S2 to be better than S1 because it aspires to far greater heights, but they're both brilliant.

Chang was good as the side character; when they removed him from his position as an instructor I wasn't sure how he'd transition. But I like the character in doses (even the Murder Mystery episode).
If a member of the study group had to go I wouldn't mind losing Shirley. Of course you lose two of the moral compasses of the show (Annie being the other), but she is the least funny of them all (and she really isn't supposed to be "funny" so I suppose its ok).
when? the only reaction I recall to anything but shirley's over-religiousness was jeff being taunted for agnosticism.
I want to add above all else it was pierce's trip out that got me.

Shirley's actually got a lot more depth than that, they just don't explore it on a regular basis, which is a shame.
Notable examples of how interesting the character can be include "Mixology Certification" and "Foosball & Nocturnal Vigilantism", both great Shirley stories that have very little to do with her Christianity.
Me too!
We should clap for each other by high fiving.
