Parks and Recreation - Part 1

[Dr. Evil]

It does gain with DVRing but I don't see NBC keeping this show for next season. With those numbers, NBC will cancel it and try something new. If I was NBCUniversal I would've canceled it, seen if any cable channel would've picked it up. If not, then use it on USA or Esquire for this season. Those numbers hurt them. Any new show would've debuted to better numbers and I love Parks and Rec. I printed Leslie's 40 Problem Solving Phases and have it up in my office already.

Is there some sort of website for the 40 Phases?

Loved Ron reading the poem at the end, along with his "Don't know what she thought I'd get outta that" while fighting back tears

 

[Pink Ranger]

OMG, seeing Ron stroll through the hills of Scotland like that, I can see how women fall in love with him so easily.

 

[Sawyer]

I love how every time Tom is around both Jean Ralphio and his sister, he automatically becomes the only adult in the room.

 

[Sawyer]

You guys should really be watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It's damn near already reached P&R quality in just it's third episode.

 

[Chewy]

Don't want to get too attached, it's not long for this world. I'll binge after it's cancelled

It already stings enough that this is probably Parks' last season

 

[Sawyer]

People like you are what's wrong with everything in this world.

"Oh, I don't want to give something my time when it could actually use some help. But when it's over, I'll give it a look."

 

[Hush]

Yeah I love Brooklyn nine nine. Funny show.

Get your **** together, viewers.

Best comedy on TV and people would rather watch Jim Parsons act like a sheltered prick.

Too true, shame the ratings weren't too hot.

Yeah, well,

Fox doomed it, pairing it with the abysmal Dads. Nothing anyone can do to save it at this point

 

[Sawyer]

Well, getting rid of Dads might...

Move Mindy to fridays or some **** and give Brooklyn the post-New Girl slot, sparing it from opposing both NCIS and SHIELD.

 

[StarLord]

Andy Samberg is **** and will never get the time of day from me. (After this sentence)

I've been enjoying Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It's not quite up to Parks and Rec quality yet, but it's definitely one of the stronger sitcom debuts I've seen. It's certainly better in its first few episodes than Parks was in its first few episodes. Remember those? The shameless Office ripoff episodes? Bleh.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Following the folks from Pawnee tonight are:

- A Piece of Crap
- A Piece of Crap starring Sean Hayes
- The Michael J Fox Show
- Parenthood

Far cry from last season when it was:

- 30 Rock (these are the best days of our flerm!)
- The Office (which despite the down quality the last few years, the series finale was fantastic)
- Parks and Rec
- Community (although not until mid season) and before that some show I don't remember.

Yep. They were basically trying to make Leslie into a female Michael Scott in those days.

When I first saw the lineup for NBC Thursday, I did have a sinking feeling. The absence of the (for NBC) titans that were 30 Rock and The Office (even though, yes, it hadn't really been good for a while) are felt.

I liked the first season and a half of Parks and Recreation more than most, but Brooklyn Nine-Nine is in a better place than Parks and Rec was then. I was thinking, "Oh, but the Parks and Rec cast is so much better," and now that's true, but in season one, there was no Ben, there was no Chris, Donna and Jerry weren't actual characters, Mark was boring, Leslie was the female Michael Scott and that didn't work. Yeah, Brooklyn Nine-Nine is in a better place; even if it's not great yet, I think it'll get there, and I certainly don't think that about any of the other new comedies I've watched.

 

[Sawyer]

I think the Nine-Nine cast is already pretty solid actually.

 

[terry78]

Right now Parks and Rec and Parenthood are the only sure things on Thursday. MJF's show is decent from what I've seen, but not sold yet, even though I'll watch him in pretty much anything.

 

[Steyin]

Andy Samberg is the poor man's Adam Sandler. There, I said it.

 

[Sawyer]

Current Adam Sandler is the poor man's Adam Sandler. Samberg has nothing to do with it.

 

[Shifty]

Is there some sort of website for the 40 Phases?

Check their Twitter or Tumblr.

Both shows had excellent series finales.

I don't disagree. Even though it should have come earlier, The Office's finale was pretty great. 30 Rock was always great in my eyes, and I wasn't disappointed in the finale. It's been a good year for series finales, actually, with 30 Rock, The Office, Fringe, Futurama, and Breaking Bad. (I've never watched Dexter.) But I don't want to digress.
