Is there a pic of that in color? I'm really curious as to what color that little blouse is. I wanna say blue (because it may match the denim pants) but I wonder...

Hmm I have never seen the picture before so I really don't know.

Alan Sepiwell at Hitfix.com is doing a weekly series of articles on why he'll miss Community(if it gets cancelled) this week is about Britta:

Excerpt:

Quote:

Last week, I talked a little about Troy, who quickly became one of the show's most popular characters. Today, I want to talk about Britta, who was much more problematic early on, where her two functions seemed to be as the hall monitor trying to stop Jeff's antics and as the Diane Chambers to his Sam Malone. The problem is, the buzzes being killed extended to entire scenes revolving around Britta, and who exactly wanted to root for her to end up with Jeff?

Some writers are stubborn about characters the fans don't like, but Dan Harmon and friends turned into the skid and made Britta's more irritating qualities into the joke. She thinks she's better than everyone else, when in fact she's worse than most. She thinks she's worldly, but she's really clueless despite her travels. She wants to help others, but mainly to make herself look good. And once the show acknowledged her many deficits and let the other characters frequently remark on them, Britta became a vastly funnier and genuinely more sympathetic character. She's the worst, as far as everyone else is concerned, and she knows how they feel, and her attempts to change that perception only reinforces it. She's gone from being perhaps the most disposable member of the study group to an extremely valuable member of the ensemble, and Gillian Jacobs has gone to town with the reconceived version of the character.

YAY on praise for Britta! :D

ILoveOTH23 12-28-2011 07:29 PM

AWW i love that write up and really agree with it.

Veiled Vesta 12-29-2011 10:45 PM

I approve of that write-up though I may be one of the few who loved Britta even when she was the buzz-kill know it all who was there to thwart Jeff's schemes when she wasn't sharing sexual tension with him. :)

ILoveOTH23 12-30-2011 07:52 PM

she definitely was a character that grew on me

I love Britta. I think she's my fave character on the show. I feel like I'm a mix of all of the characters (except maybe Shirley and Pierce), but I connected with Britta for some reason. I'm not a girly girl, so I understand where she comes from on that front. I also am a huge fan of Radiohead :)

I think I like her being awkward over anything. "Turning it into a snake!" and "I'm singing my heart's song." I know a lot of Britta supporters hate that the group jokes on her, but I think her being a temporary punching bag also offers a lot of development and humor to her character.

Things I want to see for Britta in upcoming episodes:

1. Annie and Shirley making her over for one episode. Please don't take that as in "I think Annie is better looking and should make Britta over." I just think Annie knows her way around "girly" outfits a bit better than Britta. How cool would it be for Britta to be the one to wear something sexy/noticable once in a while? Plus, major bonding between the girls is always something I love.

2. I want Britta to embrace her happiness and do things that may be a little silly. I don't want anyone to hold her back. It'd be nice if she had someone to encourage her to do more fun things. She's always worried about other people or something she can't control. I want her to get happy and face her fears.

I think a the girls should have a sleepover and each one of them can makeover the other. I love when the group gets to play around.

And I like the idea of Britta just embracing her Britta and being into a groove.
