Jeffrey Tobias Winger is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the American television sitcom Community (2009–2015). He is portrayed by Joel McHale and was created by showrunner Dan Harmon, who modeled the character after himself.
Jeff is a fast-talking, solipsistic narcissist who worked as a lawyer until he was disbarred for faking his college degree. He enrolled at Greendale Community College to get his license to practice back, where he joined a study group that would go on many absurd misadventures and ultimately make him a better person.
