    Re: Parks And Recreation

    Well, I dont know where to begin. While this weeks episode was slightly better then last weeks I dont think it was good enough to be in my every week rotation. I will probably watch 1-2 more episodes and hope for the best but Im just not into it that much.

      Cosign...This is a less funny Office. I dunno, it's just not clicking with me and she can be just as painful as Michael Scott, but he makes it work better. Perhaps I'm just getting bored with the "watch a completely naive and unprofessional office worker" show.

        Had this on DVR and just stopped watching it halfway through after realizing ther was a dozen over things I'd rather be doing/watching.

        I stopped watching the Office because of the same tone/message that permeates that show now and had hoped this might be different. But it seems they're content following a formula not really aimed at me.

        No bigee.

            Well, I don't know what to say about this show myself. I think that I am ready to stop watching. I am not finding epi's 2 and 3 anywhere near as funny as the first, plus it just feels so awkward. I like Amy Pohler, but she is better as a supporting character and poor Rashida Jones...........maybe she can get back on The Office somehow.

            The supporting cast just feels blah imo with their poor lines.

              I watched Bones instead of completely ignoring Earl and watching P&R. I don't feel bad about it either.

                Third episode was pretty much a trainwreck, IMO. I probably laughed about twice.

                  Im officially done, I was going to give it 4 episodes but after last night I dont see how this show has anyway to improve. Its terrible, nothing about it is funny and everything seems forced. I was never a huge fan of Poehler and the rest of the cast is so mediocore that there is nothing else to help the show.

                    Yeah, I can't see where it's going. That being said, since it's a show I came in wanting to like I'll probably stick with it for one more episode.

                      Obviously I am in the minority, but I thought it was funny. I DVR it and watch it when I get time and today is when I got around to it, but I laughed a lot. The boyfriend with the broken legs is hilarious. The Indian dude is pretty funny too. I was just kinda so-so on this show after the first couple episodes, but I thought this one was great. "Threeskin" is the name of the dude's band now instead of "foreskin" b/c one of the members left. I think in a previous episode he had a band named "Just the tip". The boyfriend, while playing Wii with 2 broken legs in another room, overheard that Mark and the reporter girl hooked up, he said "Called it", and his girlfriend (Rashida Jones) confirmed that he in fact did call it. He then went on to make a random comment that Mark "probably didn't even use a condom".

                      I found it funny, I understand that I am in the minority. No big deal. To each his own.

                        Just watched last week's episode and I think I'm just about done with the show. It's just not doing it for me. It's forced - they are trying too hard.

                          definetly forced. the main character is annoying me in ways that a michael scott never did. maybe one boss like that is enough and this is just overboard?

                              If they bring this back and cancel Chuck, I will not be a happy camper.

                              I don't mind bringing it back, if only because The Office got much better in the second season, but they better not cancel a better, established show to bring this back.

                                I am somehow still watching. Last night's episode was probably the best so far and actually had some funny moments. I really feel like they are trying for some more dry humor here in some aspects.

                                BTW, the show has been renewed for a Season 2. They should have really had ties to the Office, this would have helped out a bit more.
