Community creator and returning helmer Dan Harmon has never been one to hold back. But it seems that during his hiatus from the show, Harmon was enrolled in the Kanye West School of Self-Esteem. On one of his recent Harmontown podcasts, he had the following gems to contribute regarding season 4 of the NBC comedy-a season in which he was not invited to participate:
“I guess I already knew this, but apparently I’m a genius. I think I feel pretty comfortable in expressing that [Season 4] wasn’t my cup of tea…It’s very much like an impression — an unflattering one. It’s 13 episodes of people doing, ‘Derpy, derpy, der, I’m Dan Harmon, der.’”
The “derpy derpy der” perpetrators to whom Harmon referred are Moses Port and David Guarascio, who ran the show in his absence. Harmon did graciously throw his erstwhile replacements a bone, however, adding, “They tried their best.”
Later, Harmon issued his version of an apology for his comments on Twitter:

Looks like you’ve upped the ante for season five, Harmon. We’ll see you sometime around January.
