Watch How Community Turned Mitch Hurwitz Into Van Wilder

Back in October, we learned that Community cast Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz to play Greendale’s “ultimate party animal.” Considering Hurwitz has very few acting credits, we assumed this would be a small cameo. Well, the episode aired last night and he had a pretty big role. It’s hard to explain too much about the setting, because it’s Community, and it was a whole thing, but basically Hurwitz played Van Wilder, if Van Wilder looked less like Ryan Reynolds and more like a middle-aged comedy writer. Here’s the fake trailer for an ‘80s-style sex comedy starring Hurwitz, which played during the credits. Find out if “getting laid” counts as a career plan.
