In Episode 3 of the new Yahoo-fied season of Community, Britta and the group’s newest member, a virtual reality device inventor named Elroy Patashnik (Keith David) who lives in an RV, bond over their love of a Cranberries/10,000 Maniacs-esque ’90s band named Natalie Is Freezing, whose best song — BEST.

I bring this up for two reasons: One, to remind you that Community is still a good show (I mean, this happened during an episode where the main issue was a dog possibly having a degree from Greendale); and two, to bring this to your attention:

According to Community writer Clay Lapari, these are just some of the other band names the writers considered before settling on Natalie Is Freezing. Enhance. ENHANCE.
My God. Some highlights:
- Bleederhosen
- Kneecap Jenny and the Scuba Boys
- Berlin Octopi
- The Bleak Trapezists
- A Long Cry
- Nixon’s Wet Dream
- Butterfly Tattoo Murder Club
Seriously, though, I’ve heard the West Carolina Liars are excellent.
