Chevy Chase says his comeback show Community 'wasn't funny enough'


And says he didn't want to be 'surrounded' by 'those people'.

I just googled an image and I can't blame him at all. It's really embarrassing especially for someone with Chevy Chases talents

I can't assume everybody's got the same comedic sensibilities, but speaking for myself, Community is one of the funniest shows I've seen. It's not just funny, it's highly creative and inventive. Well worth checking out. The first three seasons are the best, diminishing returns after that, but I'd give it a try past the image search.

Chevy Chase has a reputation as a bit of a grouch, and not easy to get along with - a reputation he has held since long before Community. I have nothing against Chase, either; I've enjoyed his films and other works in the past, and I like him on Community, although he is part of an ensemble and not necessarily the funniest part. However, I think his griping might be more "par for the course" than it is indicative of the show's overall quality.
