If you haven’t gotten enough Ken Jeong this summer (The Hangover, The Goods, Sayonara Davey for Funny People, and WWE) , he’s gonna hit TV this fall with the new show “Community.” Dr. Ken doesn’t play a pre-med professor or math teacher or a martial arts instructor, instead he plays Spanish teacher Senor Chang. He tells you why he teaches Spanish in the clip below.
Ken Jeong joins John Cho (Flash Forward) and Daniel Henney (Three Rivers) on new shows debuting in the fall.

More about Community
From Dan Harmon (“The Sarah Silverman Program”) and Emmy Award-winning directors Joe and Anthony Russo (“Arrested Development”) comes “Community,” a smart comedy series about a band of misfits who attend Greendale Community College. At the center of the group is Jeff Winger (Joel McHale, “The Soup”), a fast-talkin’ lawyer whose degree has been revoked. With some help from his fellow classmates, Winger forms a study group who eventually learn more about themselves than their course work.
Also among the series stars who comprise the group are comedy legend Chevy Chase (“Chuck”) as Pierce, a man whose life experience has brought him infinite wisdom; Gillian Jacobs (“The Book of Daniel”) as Britta, the 28-year old drop out with something to prove; Yvette Nicole Brown (“Rules of Engagement”) as Shirley, a sassy middle-aged divorcée; Danny Pudi (“Greek”) as Abed, a pop culture junkie; Alison Brie (“Mad Men”) as Annie, a high-strung perfectionist; Donald Glover (“30 Rock”) as Troy, a former high school football star trying to find his way and Ken Jeong (“The Hangover”) as Spanish professor, Señor Chang.
