"Critical Film Studies" is the nineteenth episode of the second season of Community. It was originally aired on March 24, 2011 on NBC.[1]

In the episode, the study group organize a Pulp Fiction–themed birthday party for Abed. Instead, Abed spends most of the evening with Jeff at an upper class restaurant and the two engage in what is seemingly a deep conversation about their life-changing experiences. Unknown to Jeff, Abed is actually using the dinner to reenact another movie. Meanwhile, the rest of the group wait impatiently for Abed to finally show up.

The episode was written by Sona Panos and directed by Richard Ayoade. Although it was promoted as a Pulp Fiction centric episode, the episode also notably paid homage to My Dinner with Andre. It received positive critical reviews.
