It’s debatably a perfect casting because the charcter is a rich, arrogant, racist, sexist out of touch ass… and so is Chevy. He did excellent in the role and was hilarious more often than not. But because he is such a PoS who wasn’t really acting, the cast, writers and crew all hated working with him and then he became a very clear burden on the entire show. Resulting in him being semi killed off, but kept appearing in convulated ways? It would’ve been better for everyone if he was recast right from the start.
I couldn’t disagree more. Like you said, he’s perfect casting. Chevy was always a bit if a dick, that was his character in every film he’s ever been in. The problem, as you correctly pointed out, is that it wasn’t an act.
As he got older his shitty behavior got worse and worse. If he could have humbled him self a bit and not been a burden I expect he would have stuck around.
I can’t think of a single actor who could have played the role better.
Chevy Chase is the reason why I never made it past the first episode. I don’t know what the show writers were thinking when they created that character. There’s nothing funny about a rich, sexist, out of touch asshole.
Chevy Chase as Pierce on Community.

But that still makes him the perfect casting.

It is supposed to be acting, bit just being yourself.
He’s honestly the reason I still haven’t watched a single episode
