Janitors get all the glory, but air conditioner repair is the true power

Makes me think of Community.
The Greatest Repair-Man!
Yeah, this comic is just a worse version of Troy’s plot from English as a Second Language.
edit: the whole arc, starting in ESL, ending in Introduction to Finality
Wasn’t Troy’s character arc a play on Good Will Hunting?
Yes, and so is this comic. I just think Community did it much better.
I mean you’re complaining that a multi episode arc of a TV show explored an idea better than a four panel comic… And even then it’s not really the same because Troy wasn’t a math prodigy
No, I was originally comparing two scenes in one episode of a TV show to a four-panel comic. But in retrospect, I only really needed to compare the first of those two scenes to the four-panel comic. The rest of Troy’s arc is an added bonus, but only the first scene of it is needed to establish the Good Will Hunting comparison.
Isn’t everything in community based off other shows?
Like, in a good way
A four panel version.
Link ain’t available. Also what is the joke?
There is a movie called Good Will Hunting, where the janitor (Matt Daemon) is a math prodigy and befriends a
professortherapist (Robin Williams).This comic is a role reversal of that movie.
Edit: thank you to @mzesumzira@leminal.space for the correction, and the gentle reminder that I need to rewatch this movie. 😁
The sequel was better.
Robin Williams is not the professor, he’s the therapist.
The professor is Stellan Skarsgård.
It’s a reference to the movie Good Will Hunting where Matt Damon is working as a Janitor at a school but solves a teachers “impossible” maths puzzle. The teacher asks who in his class solved it, but nobody stands up (Matt Damon is not in the class)
